Departure with a Belly Chapter 89
Chapter 89
Victoria splashed her face with some water to calm herself down.
Pressing her hands against the sink’s edges, she looked at herself in the
mirror and recalled Norwood’s words.
What did he mean when he said I should feel it with my heart? What am I
supposed to feel?
Victoria didn’t understand Norwood since he didn’t elaborate on that.
Moreover, many people were in the private room, so she didn’t ask further.
She just found it ridiculous that Norwood’s stance was different from
Alaric’s. If she wasn’t mistaken, Norwood was trying to get Alaric and her
together.
Why, though? He’s supposed to help Alaric and Claudia get together.
Forget it. I’ll stop thinking about it.

“Stop being sad, Claudia. It’s all my fault for what happened. If I hadn’t said
nonsense, Alaric wouldn’t have treated you harshly.”
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Victoria stopped in her tracks and looked
speechlessly at the people outside the restroom.
They were Claudia and her friends. The woman who wanted to lay a hand
on her was also there.
Surrounded by her friends, Claudia sobbed. “It has nothing to do with you. I
know you’re straightforward and you meant no harm. Al understands that
as well. It’s just that his heart is no longer with me.”
A hint of ruthlessness flashed across Elaine’s eyes when she heard that.
“It’s all Victoria’s fault. She must’ve seduced Alaric since she’s his wife on
paper. Otherwise, Alaric wouldn’t have treated you distantly. Don’t worry,

“Forget it.” Claudia took her hands while her tears slid down her cheeks. “I
don’t want to drag you into this. You’ve suffered a lot for standing up for
me. Don’t worry, though. I’ll plead with Al again on your behalf when he’s no
longer furious.”
“Claudia, we’re best friends, so you’re not dragging me into any mess. I’m
supposed to help you out.”
Victoria sneered in secret upon hearing that. She finally understood she
shouldn’t deal with fools who couldn’t distinguish right from wrong. They
felt that they were righteous, but most of the time, they were used like
pawns. It had to be said that Claudia had been making use of these
people cleverly.
While she was deep in thought, someone noticed her presence.
“Victoria?!”

It was a sensitive name for all of them, so they immediately shifted their
attention to her.
Elaine appeared resentful as she gritted her teeth and glowered at the
woman.
“It’s you, Victoria! Why are you eavesdropping on us?”
“Huh?” Victoria let out a sigh. “I was just using the restroom. When I came
out, I heard your loud ensemble performance. Could it even be considered
eavesdropping when we’re in a public space?”
Elaine looked at how calm Victoria appeared and shifted her attention to
the sobbing Claudia.
Claudia is crying, but Victoria doesn’t seem to feel guilty at all. Doesn’t she
realize she has done something wrong? She’s such a b*tch!
A furious Elaine charged forward with a dark gaze.

On the other hand, Victoria was well-prepared. When she saw Elaine
dashing toward her resentfully, she vigilantly took a step back.
However, Elaine was a crazy person who did things recklessly. She
grabbed Victoria’s hair the next moment and yelled, “B*tch, how do you
have the nerve to be smug after seducing another woman’s man?”
Claudia and her friends were stunned, not expecting Elaine to make a
move when they were only talking behind Victoria’s back.
Only wealthy young ladies could become Claudia’s friends. Although their
families weren’t comparable to the Johnsons, they were famous people.
As such, they wouldn’t dare to embarrass their families by doing anything
irrational.
They would never curse at others or even get into a fight in public. Much to
their surprise, Elaine had acted on a whim.
Claudia was astounded when she saw that. Since she hated Victoria, she

certainly wanted to teach her a lesson. However, hurting the woman
directly would only worsen her relationship with Alaric. Therefore, such an
idea never crossed her mind.
When she saw what was going on, she subconsciously wanted to step
forward and stop them. However, she soon stopped in her tracks.
Wait a minute. Why would I stop them? Perhaps an accident will happen
to her child amidst the chaos. Since no one else is aware that she’s
pregnant, I can nip the problem in the bud by making use of another
person to get rid of the child. If I allow Victoria to give birth to her child, it’ll
prove to be a threat in the future. Even if Alaric finds out about it, it has
nothing to do with me anyway.
At the thought of this, Claudia remained in the same spot, pretending she
was too stunned to move. On the other hand, her friends were all
astonished, not knowing how to deal with the situation.
Although Victoria had acted quickly, the woman still managed to grab her

hair.
At that moment, she felt a sharp pain as the woman pulled her hair. She
was enraged at that while glowering at Elaine. Does she think I’ll let her
bully me and won’t counterattack?
She sneered and forcefully stepped on Elaine’s foot while bearing the pain.
Although she wasn’t wearing stilettos, she made sure her heel came into
contact with Elaine’s toes, sending a sharp pain through her leg.
As expected, Elaine groaned in pain as her expression turned hideous. She
was in so much pain that she was no longer able to hold onto Victoria’s
hair.
She glared at Victoria and tried to grab her hair with the other hand. “You b

women. Do you think I have less strength than you?”
At the same time, she exerted more force on her leg, causing Elaine to
shriek. Elaine had lost all her strength while Victoria had gained the upper
hand.
None of them had expected the turn of events because Victoria looked
like a beautiful and frail woman from a broke family. It surprised them to
learn she was so ferocious.
They finally came to their senses and rushed over to separate them.
Victoria’s expression changed as she instantly released the woman and
moved away.
On the other hand, the noise caught the attention of the people in the
private room. The moment Victoria stepped backward, Claudia caught
sight of the others coming over. Flustered, she quickly approached
Victoria to pull her.

Victoria didn’t know it was Claudia coming to her. After all, they were a
group of people, and she only saw someone charging toward her.
Therefore, she subconsciously tried to push the person away. However,
before she even made a move, the person shrieked and fell over.
Following the scream, Claudia, who was wearing stilettos, fell toward the
steps.
