Chapter: 647
When he heard her answer, Victor's eyes darkened.
“I don't know him.
What can I do for you?"
"I..." Susan was speechless.
The Salazar family was well known in Apliaria. She had always been proud of her family. Therefore, hearing from a man like Victor that he didn't know her great father, her pride was shattered into pieces.
"I..." Embarrassed, Susan's heart raced.
Victor noticed that her face was turning pale. Their eyes locked for a few seconds before he spoke again.
"You like me?"
At first, Susan didn't know how to react. But then she told the truth.
"“I...Yes, I do like you. In fact, when I saw you tonight, I..."
"Your name is Susan?" Victor interrupted her.
"Yes."
“Since you like me, let's get engaged." There was no trace of emotion in Victor's eyes as if what he had said was not a big deal.
Engaged?
To say that Susan was shocked was an understatement. She doubted if she had heard it wrong, but before she could ask, Victor turned around and left.
The next day, a guy named Ivan indeed brought a lot of things to the
Salazar family for Victor's proposal.
It only took them two days from meeting each other to announcing the engagement to the public. Just like that, Susan became Victor's fiancee.
She couldn't figure out why he decided to get engaged when they had only met each other once. At first, Susan thought Victor proposed because he fell in love with her at first sight just like her.
Everyone else thought so.
Two years ago, on a rainy night in winter, she found out the true reason. She received a call from Crown Club, saying that Victor had a stomachache because of drinking too much alcohol.
Without hesitation, she rushed to the club and went straight to the
VIP room. The mellow and strong smell of alcohol and the bottles of red wine scattered all over welcomed her. On the sofa, Victor curled up like a child.
"Victor." She didn't know why Victor, who had always been a restrained man, drank so much today. But she suppressed all her doubts when she saw that he was in too much pain.
Hearing a gentle voice calling his name, Victor opened her eyes.
