Chapter 150

Lucas was dumbfounded by her words, but he couldn’t refute it.

He subconsciously moved a few steps to stop Victoria as he saw her turning away with a stern look. He

had the unsettling feeling that she was drifting further and further away from him since two years ago.

“Is there anything else, Mr. Spritz?” Below the incandescent light, Lucas could clearly see the

frustration between her eyebrows when she glanced up at him.

He felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart, and after repeatedly trying to say something, the words

finally came out. “If you are right, I will always be on your side.”

“Ha!” she laughed coldly and mocked, “Then, Mr. Spritz, may I ask whether you ever thought your

sister was wrong?”

Lucas’ throat tightened as he said, “Being understanding and smart from a young age, Bella has

always put others’ needs ahead of her own. Even after you intentionally knocked her two years ago,

she refrained from filing a lawsuit against you out of concern that doing so would result in your lifelong

incarceration.”

Victoria gave him a direct look, the sarcasm in her eyes growing, but she refrained from speaking.

Lucas was one of those who just wouldn’t understand, so no matter how much she said, it was simply a

waste of saliva.

Right then, footsteps approached, and a gentle male voice sounded from behind Victoria. “You said so

much, but the only thing you want to emphasize is that you don’t think your sister is ever wrong, right?”

Victoria frowned slightly and turned to look at the person.

He was dressed in a white doctor’s coat over a straight-cut suit. He had a handsome and cheerful

appearance with two large dimples on each cheek.

The night was dark and the lights were dim, yet he stood in front of her as if he was shining.

“William Walker?” Lucas frowned and spoke after assessing the man.

William grinned. “It’s been seven years since I last saw you. I’m surprised you can recognize me at

once.”

The two were classmates from kindergarten to junior high school, but William spent his first year of high

school as an exchange student in Pancada and hadn’t been back since.

“Meeting in this situation is certainly not a nice thing.” Although his lips curved a little, Lucas’ eyes

showed no signs of happiness. He said, “I have something to discuss with my girlfriend. Please leave

us alone for a while.”

When Victoria heard this, her eyes grew heavy, and just as she was ready to speak, William took the

lead. “Girlfriend?”

He laughed before Lucas could react. “You must be joking, Mr. Spritz. My aunt told me every day that

you used to always stick around Tori, but after the incident two years ago, you both became enemies.”

Lucas’ facial expression changed, and he tightened his fists a little.

After pausing for a moment, William’s eyebrows twitched as he continued, “Why don’t I know about

this? Since when did Tori become your girlfriend?”

Being constantly called ‘Tori’ by a stranger, Victoria frowned but remained silent.

“The issue between me and Victoria is none of your concern.” Lucas’ expression worsened, and he

clenched his fists tightly.

“I don’t appreciate what you just said.” With his hand extended, William pulled Victoria into his arms

and added, “My aunt—or Aunt Jill, if you prefer—said that as she wanted to introduce me to Tori to be

her boyfriend when I returned. So, as Tori’s future boyfriend, your issue with her is still within my

concern.”

Victoria initially wanted to push the man away, but when she heard that his aunt was Aunt Jill, she

stopped doing so.

“Let’s leave. Just ignore him.” She took the initiative to grasp William’s forearm and walked toward the

inpatient area.

Lucas wanted to continue to pester her, but she had lost her patience. She coldly remarked while

shaking her phone in front of him, “Mr. Spritz, do you want me to contact Miss Spritz, Mrs. Spritz, or

Miss Palmer to tell them that you are bothering me in the hospital?”

Hearing that, he brought his already lifted foot back. His heart throbbed as he observed the scorn and

anger in Victoria’s eyes. He felt slightly guilty and angry, but was unable to move on at the same time.

Pain and struggle flashed in his eyes. He hesitated again and again, but watched Victoria leave with

William in the end while she grabbed onto the other man’s arm.

As soon as they arrived at the inpatient area, William released Victoria’s arm, stepped back, and

appropriately widened the space between them. Then, he said, “Aunt Jill usually addresses you as Tori,

and I didn’t know your name either. I hope you don’t mind that I addressed you that way just now.”

“I am Victoria. Victoria Coleman.” She took a glance at his badge and asked, “You’re Aunt

Jnovelxo.com fast updateill’s nephew who studied abroad in Pancada?”

William smiled, and his eyes appeared to have sparkles in them. “I just returned yesterday. My name is

William. William Walker.”

“Thank you so much for just now,” said Victoria, her smile dying down.

“Don’t be too courteous,” replied William after removing his white coat and placing it over his arm. “It’s

only a tiny effort.”

After pausing for a moment, he asked, “Please don’t mind this, but I heard from my aunt that there are

some issues with your right leg, correct?”

“Just a little.” Victoria gently retreated her right foot and remarked, “You wouldn’t know that I’m

‘disabled’ until you actually paid attention. It’s very obvious if you do, though.”

“You must have gone through a lot of pain in order to train to walk normally, right?” he said softly while

looking at her leg.

“It’s alright,” Victoria simply replied, retreating her right leg again.

“I’m aware that as a new acquaintance, I may have said a bit too much. But I am a specialist in this

field, plus my aunt mentioned that you learned dancing, so I have been hoping to help you recover,”

William remarked honestly.

She then checked the time on her phone before turning to face him and said, “Mr. Walker, I appreciate

your goodwill, but there is no need for that. I’ll take my leave first since someone is waiting for me.”

As soon as the words were spoken, Teresa hurriedly ran down. “Tori, why are you—”

She ran closer, only to realize that a stranger was standing beside Victoria, so she stopped talking and

asked, “Who is this?”

“Hello. I’m William, Aunt Jill’s nephew. I’m a doctor who specializes in leg issues.” William took the

initiative to introduce himself before Victoria could say anything.

When Teresa heard that he specialized in leg issues, her eyes lit up as she spoke slightly more excited

than usual. “You specialize in that field? Can you aid Tori, then? She fractured her leg two years ago,

but a while back, a doctor claimed that it may still be cured!”
