Departure with a Belly ( Victoria Selwyn & Alaric Cadogan’s )
Departure with a Belly Chapter 250

Chapter 250 

“I–I’m sorry, Mr. Cadogan,” Terrance pleaded. “I didn’t really think it through at that 

moment when Miss Selwyn asked me about your situation. I thought she was 

concerned about you, so I told her about your circumstances. I didn’t mean to…”

Alaric’s breath hitched, and his eyes were filled with a menacing rage as he itched to 

knock Terrance down. And yet, he managed to suppress it. 

He was probably worried about creating a commotion and ending up disturbing 

Victoria, who was in a deep slumber. 

Releasing his grip on Terrance, he held his anger in and uttered, “Leave.” 

As much as Terrance wished to comply, he couldn’t. Instead, he meekly protested, 

“This IV-” 

However, Alaric moved to remove the needle before he could finish his sentence. 

Terrance quickly stepped in, blocking Alaric’s attempt to remove the needle. “Mr. 

Cadogan, Miss Selwyn is weak now after passing out. You wouldn’t want her to 

worry about you when she wakes up, would you?” 

Alaric’s hand froze when he heard those words.

“Miss Selwyn didn’t want to bother with you at first, but she came after she heard 

that you were coughing up blood. You should receive treatment like a patient, sir.“. 

Terrance began to gain more courage the more he talked. “Other than Miss Selwyn 

being concerned, have you considered the consequences of neglecting your health, 

sir? How will you win her back if your health deteriorates?” 

As Terrance spoke, Alaric’s gaze gradually turned dangerous and deep. 

“Mr. Levane, are you teaching me a lesson?” Alaric asked with a threatening look. 

“I am not in the position to, sir! I’m just speaking the truth…” 

Even though Alaric was angry, he couldn’t deny that Terrance’s words had struck a 

chord… 

In the end, although Alaric remained furious, he refrained from any further actions. 

and reluctantly allowed Terrance to stay and hold the IV bag for him. 

Terrance managed to hold it at first, but as Alaric stayed by Victoria’s side, waiting. 

for her to wake up on top of ignoring Terrance when the latter tried to persuade him 

to return to his own bed, Terrance could only hang the IV bag by Victoria’s bed 

instead.

He then fetched a chair that Alaric could sit on. 

“Mr. Cadogan, if you won’t go back to your bed, at least sit here for a while,” Terrance 

suggested. 

After all, Alaric couldn’t possibly refuse now that Terrance had brought the reclining 

chair next to Victoria’s bed. 

As expected, Alaric didn’t refuse this time. He followed Terrance’s suggestion and 

took a seat. 

Although he didn’t lie down, Terrance finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw 

Alaric sitting down. 

From that moment on, Alaric remained by Victoria’s side while Terrance stood guard  Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

nearby. 

Terrance noticed that Alaric’s gaze barely left Victoria. He was fixated on her. 

As he watched Alaric, he quietly lamented. 

For some reason, he suddenly thought that Alaric had the potential to be someone 

who couldn’t think straight when it came to love.

Before this, Terrance had always thought of Alaric as someone who would barely 

spare a glance at a woman, not even someone as beautiful as Claudia. 

Little did he expect that he would get to see Alaric staring at a woman without. 

looking away once. 

Terrance did think Victoria was prettier. 

While Claudia looked more delicate, and she was the kind of beautiful woman who 

could easily make a man feel protective over her, Victoria gave off a sense of 

resilience despite how slender and fragile looking she was. It felt like she wouldn’t 

be easily defeated, and she definitely did not need to rely on a man. 

Terrance didn’t know what other men thought, but he looked up to women like 

Victoria more. 

Alaric hadn’t got a clue what Terrance was thinking. 

But even if he knew, he wouldn’t have had the time to bother with it. 

Because at this moment, he was solely focused on Victoria. He knew all too well 

what his grandmother’s death meant to her.

He had tested her at first. Hearing those harsh words she spoke, he felt both 

disappointed and relieved. 

It might actually be for the better for her to not consider Griselda’s family after the 

divorce. 

That way, she wouldn’t be sad over the elderly woman’s death. 

She went to the hotel afterward and asked about his grandmother. From that 

moment on, Alaric knew she was only putting on a tough front. 

And now, she passed out upon hearing the news. 

5/9 

Alaric couldn’t begin to imagine what would happen when she woke up. It was good. 

that she was still unconscious and unaware of everything, but what about when she 

woke up? 

With these thoughts in mind, Alaric unknowingly reached out and gently held her 

wrist. 

Seconds went by. 

Just like that, Alaric and Terrance stayed by her side in the ward.

Some time must have passed before Victoria’s phone in her purse began to ring. 

6/9 

Terrance immediately got up and fetched Victoria’s bag and handed it to Alaric. 

Carefully unzipping it since Alaric couldn’t use his hands, Terrance retrieved the 

phone from inside. 

Alaric’s face darkened with just a glance at the caller ID. 

Bane Morison. 

“If Miss Selwyn hadn’t lost consciousness and got hospitalized, it would be the end 

of her working hours by now. I’m sure her colleagues have left. Is this her family 

member calling her? Mr. Cadogan, should I answer the call and let them know she’s 

okay?” 

“No need.” In what way is Bane her family? 

“Huh? No?” 

Alaric’s expression turned cold as he looked at the phone for a few seconds and 

instructed Terrance, “Turn it off.” 

“But…”

Seeing the displeased expression on Alaric’s face and the name of the caller, 

Terrance felt like he had guessed something right. 

7/0 

Is this Bane Morison Mr. Cadogan’s rival in love? 

Despite his hesitation, Terrance finally turned off the phone. 

Bane had been trying to reach Victoria for a long time to no avail. After the calls 

were automatically disconnected, he dialed again, only to find that her phone was 

switched off. 

A gloomy shade flickered in Bane’s dark eyes. After a moment of contemplation, he 

parked the car by the roadside. 

He made a phone call after thinking for a few seconds. 

“I need to pick up the kids from school. Help me find out where she went, please. I 

hope you’ve already informed me of her location by the time I get the kids.” 

With that said, Bane hung up the phone and turned the car around towards the 

school. 

As consciousness slowly returned. Victoria was overcome by a piercing pain in her 

chest that made her curl up instinctively although her eyes remained shut. 

8/9 

She only had one thought in her head while lying there–Griselda had passed away. 

She had considered that many things would happen in five years. Perhaps Alaric 

would remarry or have children, and everyone would move on with their new lives. 

She had prepared herself for everything and had thought it all through, and she 

would accept anything that would come her way. 

But she had never imagined Griselda’s passing. 

This was the news she didn’t want to hear the most, yet it had tragically become a 

reality. 

Three years ago? 

After lying quietly for a while, Victoria suddenly opened her eyes. 

Alaric, who had been watching over her, felt his heart skip a beat at her unexpected 

awakening. 

“You’re awake.” 

Chapter 250 Potential to Be Someone Who Can’t Thin 

Though Alaric tried to maintain a calm tone, his anxiety was visible on his face. 

Victoria sat up with her eyes calmly fixed on him after meeting his gaze. 

Alaric’s lips moved, but he couldn’t utter a single word. 

“You…” 

Victoria pursed her lips while gazing at him for a moment before asking, “When was 

it?” 

The question spoke volumes, and the answer was already evident. 

However, Alaric couldn’t bring himself to answer her.
