Departure with a Belly ( Victoria Selwyn & Alaric Cadogan’s )
Departure with a Belly Chapter 572

Chapter 572 It Should Be Fine 

Sasha knew Tony didn’t want her to overwork herself, but she was used to working. Before Sasha got together with Tony, she had raised her children independently. It was hard for a single mother to care for her children, especially if they came from an average family. Sasha never expected to encounter someone like Tony, nor even 

become a Selwyn. 

However, even though she was well–off now, she still couldn’t relax. After all, she had been working for almost half her life. Now that she had someone else to take care of things, she felt restless and lonely. Thus, she would find something to do, but Tony didn’t want her to do things the same as the servants. 

Thinking about this, Sasha sighed and said, “I’m just used to it.” 

Hearing her words, Tony sighed and replied, “Years have passed since that happened. Are you still not used to this kind of life when you have been here for quite some time already?” 

“It’s mainly because I have nothing to do. It makes me feel like I’m using you,” Sasha said shyly. 

“Using me?” Tony was speechless. “There’s no such thing when we’ve agreed to be by each other’s side.”  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Alright, I’ll quickly get used to this.” 

Although Sasha used to raise her kids alone, she was an optimistic and mentally stable person. Throughout the times she had been with Tony, they never once fought, which was why Victoria quickly accepted her. 

Tony looked at the time and got up. “I just realized their flight is almost here. I’m going to pick them up at the airport half an hour earlier. Do you want to come along?” 

Although Sasha wanted to tag along, she shook her head. “It’s fine. I’ll wait for you guys here.” She was worried that the servants would miss out on something, so she wanted to keep an eye on them. 

Tony knew what she was thinking and knew he couldn’t get her to come along. Since he had to greet Victoria and the Cadogans at the airport, he quickly left the house. 

After he left, Sasha got up and hurried to the kitchen. Only would she be at ease if she oversaw the preparations herself. 

After a long ride, Victoria was exhausted. Although she had slept on the plane, there was still a difference between sleeping while sitting and lying down. When Victoria woke up from her slumber, she felt her neck and shoulders sore, even if Alaric had given his shoulder to her as a headrest. As she got off the plane, she rubbed 

her shoulders. 

“Does it hurt?” asked Alaric. In that split second, he put his hands on Victoria’s shoulders and gently massaged 

them. 

Alaric’s hands were warm, and he used the appropriate amount of pressure to massage Victoria’s sore spots. Feeling blissful, Victoria couldn’t help but lean closer to him. 

Noticing her actions, Alaric stood there without moving, allowing her to lean against him as he rubbed her shoulders. “Do you feel sore because of the ride?” he asked. 

“Yeah.” Victoria nodded in response, feeling tired. “Indeed, beds are the best to sleep in.” 

Alaric looked at her face and noticed it was paler than when she first got on the plane. Moreover, she looked worn out. After thinking for a while, he asked, “Why don’t I carry you?” 

Initially, Victoria was going to rest for a while. When she heard his words, she was shocked. “You don’t have to. We’re at the airport, you know.” She felt that it would attract a lot of attention if he carried her. 

“What about the airport? Can’t I carry you here?” Alaric didn’t seem to care at all. 

“People will stare at us.” 

“Let them stare, then.” Alaric was about to carry her as he spoke, but Victoria quickly stopped him. “It’s fine. I can walk by myself. I’m just tired, not disabled.” 

Looking at her blushing face, Alaric smiled and said, “I never knew you were the shy type.” 

Victoria pursed her lips and said nothing. 

Honestly, she didn’t care about the attention if it was only her and Alaric. However, Adrian, Mary, and the kids were here too. Moreover, her father was waiting for them outside the airport. 

After the plane landed, Victoria received a call from Tony after disabling the airplane mode on her phone. She wasn’t surprised when she heard that Tony was already outside the airport waiting for them since he had asked her about their flight number. However, she couldn’t imagine how embarrassing it would be for Alaric to carry her. Thus, she could only refuse his offer. 

On the other hand, Alaric didn’t force her against her will since he feared she would be unhappy. “If you think me carrying you is embarrassing, why don’t you get on my back? That’s fine, right?” he asked. 

Victoria was startled when she heard it, but she felt that getting on his back was better than being carried by him. At least it wouldn’t be awkward when the others saw it. 

Just as she was still thinking about it, Alaric kneeled before her and said, “Come on now, princess.” 

Looking at his broad shoulders, Victoria was still having second thoughts. However, Alaric reached out and pulled her in, causing her to fall on his back. 

“Stop worrying and just get on.” 

Just like that, Alaric carried Victoria on his back. Meanwhile, Victoria carried the bag she had brought on the plane since Alaric couldn’t help her now. 

As the duo walked away, Adrian and Mary escorted the children off the plane. When they saw Victoria and Alaric’s actions, they looked at each other and smiled. 

On the other hand, Nathan stood quietly beside Mary while Nicole blinked her eyes enviously. Then, she raised her head and opened her arms at Adrian. “Daddy is carrying Mommy. I want Grandpa to carry me too.” 

Facing his granddaughter’s request, Adrian didn’t have the heart to say no. He quickly kneeled in front of Nicole and said, “Come on, let me carry you.” 

Adrian had never carried anyone before, not even Alaric. Yet, Nicole had broken the record. 

Nicole climbed onto Adrian’s back happily and hugged his neck, saying, “Thank you, Grandpa.” 

In the meantime, Mary watched them enviously. She couldn’t help lowering her head and looking at Nathan.
