Snare of Love novel Chapter 215

Jayden’s gaze fell on her.

Mr. Nelson?

When Victoria turned around to look clearly at the person at the door, her whole body froze, she was lost and didn’t know what to do.

Mr. Brown didn’t notice anything unusual with Victoria. He got up from his seat, and walked over to Jayden, “Mr. Nelson are you here for a meal too? Let’s eat together.”

They had worked together before, it could be considered that they have some relationship.

Saying this, he called out to the few other people who were together with Jayden, “Come over, I’ve already picked my seat here, it’s by the window, you can watch the view while enjoying your food, how perfect.”

The few people didn’t dare to make a decision, they instead turned their gaze to Jayden, as if questioning his opinion.

Jayden retracted his gaze slowly, and said, “Let’s go.”

Mr. Brown quickly walked in front to show the way. When he reached his seat, he helped Jayden to pull out his seat.

The few of them sat down, and Mr. Brown got the waiter to add some dishes.

Victoria was very uncomfortable, her hands that were placed on the table, was clasped tightly together.

She hadn’t thought that she would meet Jayden here, she didn’t even dare to raise her head.

Someone made fun of Mr. Brown, “You have a beautiful lady to accompany you, wouldn’t we be disturbing you?”

“Exactly, where did Mr. Brown find this beautiful lady, why didn’t I see her before?”

Victoria raised her head and coincidentally at the moment, Jayden was looking at her. Their gaze met in the air.

Victoria wanted to explain, but there were so many people around, so she couldn’t say anything.

Jayden had said before that he didn’t want anyone to know about their relationship.

She didn’t dare to say anything, even more so she didn’t dare to speak to Jayden, afraid that it would attract the attention of others.

She looked at Mr. Brown, “I really have something going on, I wish to leave first.”

Mr. Brown waved his hand at her, gesturing for her to sit down, “Don’t be nervous, don’t listen to them talk rubbish, stay back in peace to eat your meal, you can’t leave with an empty stomach.”

After settling Victoria, Mr. Brown looked at the guy that had teased him just now, and retorted, “I have a wife, do I look like I am someone who fools around outside? This lady…”

He pointed at Victoria, “My benefactor.”

“It’s not that you guys don’t know, all the antiques in the company, it’s so difficult to talk to them. I had wanted to restructure since a long time ago, but they are like stones in a pit, both smelly and hard, blocking my path, not allowing me to begin. This time, this lady… Oh, what’s your name?”

When Mr. Brown wanted to introduce Victoria, he realized he didn’t even know her name.

At this moment, only he realized how rash he had been just now at the meeting, he had appointed a person who he didn’t even know the name, and had only entered the company for two months as vice-president.

When Mr. Brown asked this question, Jayden’s expression changed slightly.

Because even he didn’t know what’s the name of the woman that had stayed with him for two months in the same house.

“Victoria.” She lowered her eyes.

Jayden raised his eyebrows lightly, so she was called Victoria, it sounded like a very ladylike name.

“Victoria?” What a great name.” Mr. Brown praised her, “Women’s names nowadays are all very common and old-fashioned. Victoria, gentle and graceful, it sounds very poetic and special, sounds great. But we are digressing.” Mr. Brown laughed, “It’s her, after her speech, she managed to retaliate all the antiques in my company, until they couldn’t say anything else.”

Mr. Brown stood up from his seat, and introduced her formally, “This lady, is my company’s new vice-manager. In the future she might be my most helpful assistant. She is far-sighted and capable, even though she is a pretty lady, her capabilities are even better than her face.”

Mr. Brown was really in admiration of Victoria’s capabilities.

Especially just now during the meeting, she had managed to make everyone else’s words stuck in their throat.

“Really?”

Everyone’s gaze was on Victoria.

WX Machinery’s machinery was once filled with glory, no one didn’t know them, just that now that there were more and more machinery manufacturers, the impact on them was huge. Mr. Brown had always wanted change, but the old staff in his company had always disagreed. Restructuring required lots of money and time, they were not willing to work for it. What they wanted was only the peace right now, living day by day, with money firmly in their pockets.

Even though they were not like in the past, but there was still money to be made.

Mr. Brown had wanted change since the past, but because of the pressure of these people, there was no one who would stand to make a gain out of it, so he hadn’t proceed.

Everyone was feeling confused. She was a lady, how did she manage to suppress those old men.

“No, Mr. Brown you are over-praising me.” Victoria really felt very uncomfortable under everyone’s gaze. This atmosphere, she didn’t even have the appetite to eat anything. Even if she managed to eat anything, she was afraid that she would have indigestion.

“Mr. Brown, I really have something on.” This time Victoria’s attitude was firm, she stood up while speaking, obviously wanting to leave.

Mr. Brown could tell that she was insistent on leaving, if he persisted on making her stay, he was afraid it would cause a rift between them. He wanted to retain this talent, to help him to restructure the company. So he agreed, “How about this, I’ll make this toast to you, then I’ll get someone to send you back, can you agree to this?”

Victoria thought for a second and nodded to agree. It was better she didn’t offend this man, she still had to work in the company in the future. What’s more he had already allowed her to leave, it was just a matter of a toast.

Victoria picked up the wine glass on the table, and knocked it with Mr. Brown’s glass.

“You are God’s army for me, the road to restructuring must be tough, if you have any needs, or if you meet any difficulties, just let me know.” Mr. Brown was generous, to be able to manage such a large company, he was indeed not a simple person.

“I’m thankful to Mr. Brown for giving me this opportunity, I don’t dare to be your best soldier, for the company to enter a new era, it would require the effort of everyone. Even ants know that unity is strength, what’s more us as humans. In the future, let everyone work hard together.”

“Well said.” Mr. Brown raised his thumb at Victoria, “Everything in the wine.”

Mr. Brown downed his white wine.

Victoria could drink a little bit of alcohol, but this time, when she smelled white wine, she felt queasy, and she almost felt like throwing up.

Mr. Brown looked at her and said, “You have to drink this glass of wine.”

To get out of this situation, Victoria gritted her teeth and downed the wine, the liquor burned her throat. She frowned and put down the glass, “There you go, I’ll leave first.”

“Alright, I’ll get the driver to send you, where do you stay?” Mr. Brown asked graciously.

Victoria’s expression changed, she quickly waved her hand, “No need, no need, I’ll go on my own.”

How would she dare to say where she lived.

Finishing her words, she had already pulled her chair and got out of her seat, her footsteps were quick, afraid that Mr. Brown would change his mind and call her back.

Walking out of the restaurant, she stopped by the roadside to hail a car. Lucky that everything went smoothly, but she still felt a little worried in her heart, anxious that Jayden would be unhappy because of what happened today.

After all, she was not a free spirit now, to let her to roam freely and work freely, was considered giving her a huge tolerance. It wouldn’t be good if she brought them trouble.

After getting out of the dinner, her anxious emotions still continued even when she reached the villa.

Lucky that Jayden was not back yet. She inhaled deeply, adjusted her feelings and went upstairs, she didn’t even have the appetite to eat anymore. She went to the bathroom and filled up the bathtub with hot water, wanting to soak in the bathtub for relaxation.

A hot bath was the best method to relax.

When the bathtub was filled, she took off her clothes and got into the water, slowly submerging herself in the water. From the surface of the water, it can be seen a graceful body, partially seen.

It was an unspeakable sense of attractiveness.

After about half an hour, she felt her whole body heat up, her anxiousness had also dissipated.

She got up, raised her legs to get out of the bathtub, and reached out to grab the towel. She suddenly slipped, and her whole body fell on the ground.

On reflex she wanted to grab on to something to support herself, but the sink was too slippery. She didn’t manage to grab that, but on the other hand swept all the bottles onto the ground.

A crash sounded, and the bottles rolled on the floor.

She laid on the floor, her whole body in pain, especially her lower body was throbbing. She could feel heat in between her legs, she lowered her head in difficulty, and realized that there was blood.

Her face paled, she wasn’t on her period, what’s more she had realized that it was two months since her period came.

Because of being here, she hadn’t been able to relax, so she had forgotten about it.

But now thinking of it carefully…

She panicked.

She clutched the bath towel and covered herself, calling the servant.

She was upstairs in the bathroom, and the soundproofing of the house was very good, the servant downstairs couldn’t hear her calling for help at all.

At the restaurant, all the businessmen were gathered, and naturally their conversation was flowing. In between, Jayden excused himself, and left the dinner.

Returning to the villa, he thought for a moment before heading upstairs. He raised his hand and knocked on the door, but didn’t push it open.

He stood outside and said to her, “That Mr. Brown had noticed something wrong with the company since a long time ago, he had always wanted to restructure, but all the old staff in the company weren’t willing. That’s why he always hadn’t begun. If he wanted to start, he would need someone to rush in front of him to block the anger of these old men. Now that he has pushed you in front of him, this has undoubtedly made you the person for these old men to vent their anger. This is very unbeneficial to you. If you need a job, I can help you to look, if you think you can handle this on your own, then I won’t force you.”

He just wanted to remind her to be careful, Mr. Brown was using her.

There was still no sound from within. Jayden paused for a second, and got ready to turn around to go downstairs. Just at this moment, a crashing sound passed through from the room.

Jayden’s footsteps paused, the sounds had stopped, he thought he had heard wrongly, so he didn’t put it to heart.

He continued moving. At this moment, Victoria used all her strength and yelled, “I’m in the house…”

Jayden frowned, and turned around. He knocked on the door, “What’s wrong?”

Victoria clutched the towel on her body tightly, her eyes red, she was struggling internally. She was not a three-year-old kid, she knew what was going on with herself

Everything had happened too suddenly, she felt anxious, afraid, and fearful.

With her voice hoarse she said, “I fell down, I can’t move.”

It’s not that she couldn’t move, but she didn’t dare to move, she realized that once she moved, her tummy hurt.

So she didn’t dare to move.

Jayden pushed opened the room door, in the room was empty, only the bathroom door was closed, and it was lit inside.

He walked over and knocked on the bathroom door, “Are you inside?”

Through the frosted glass door Victoria looked at the foggy shadow, the tears in her eyes rolled down.

“I… I am here.”

Her voice was tearful.

Because she was afraid.

She wasn’t sure what she was afraid of, was she afraid of Jayden seeing her naked body, or was she afraid that she might be pregnant. She wasn’t sure which it was, but she felt very unsettled inside.

Jayden pushed the door, because the bathroom door was locked, he didn’t manage to push it open. Knowing that she must have locked it when taking a bath, he knocked on it with a large strength, he didn’t think much of it at that moment.

He was only worried that she might be in danger.

At the moment the door was knocked open, he realized, that the woman in the bathroom was not wearing clothes, and lying on the ground, her bath towel covering her private parts, and there was blood on the floor…
