Chapter: 649

"No. That's not it."

"Then why? We don't act like an engaged couple at all. Don't you think so? We have never even held hands!"

"I thought I had made it clear to you when we were engaged."

Victor's face turned cold.

“What?" Susan was stunned.

"On our engagement day, I asked you what you wanted." The coldness of Victor's voice sent a child down Susan's spine.

"I..." It suddenly occurred to Susan that she had been asked twice what she wanted. She smiled and wished for the Salazar Group to be on the top, and for her to be an actress and be Mrs. Sullivan.

Now, with the Sullivan Group's help, the Salazar Group had become one of the most powerful companies in Apliaria. She had also become a famous actress, and soon she would become Victor's wife.

All that she wished for came true.

Finally, Susan understood what his words meant back then.

“susan, I can give you everything you want." There was a brief silence before Victor added, “Except for love."

Tears fell down Susan's face. But she forced a smile. It was true that her initial intention for being with Victor wasn't purely out of love. But it hurt to hear that he had never loved her even a little.

"You don't like me at all?" Susan's voice almost cracked.

"No."

This simple word felt like a knife piercing through Susan's heart, making it difficult for her to breathe.

"Victor... If you don't Like me, why did you propose? Why did you help the Salazar Group? Why?

You are lying, right? How could it be possible? If you don't like me, why did you..."

"Because you look Like her," Victor answered coldly.

Her?

It was not until then that Susan realized who he was talking about.

His ex-wife, Rachel Bennet, who had been praised for her beauty but laughed at because of her stupidity.

Susan waited for two hours until the video conference was over. It was totally dark outside at that time.

She gave Victor a glass of water and said, "Victor, you've been working all afternoon; take a break at least. Drink some water."

Victor turned off the computer and looked at the glass of water on the desk before asking indifferently, "Why are you here? What can I do for you?"

"Nothing. It's just that... It's been almost a month since we last saw each other," Susan said, looking at him with tender eyes.
