Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

The faint voice sounded lonely and sad. They looked at each other. Both of them seemed to have realized something. Clarence took his hand back, and Victoria did not refuse anymore.

When she was travelling around in the past, if she was at the city he was in, no matter how far apart they were, they would still meet up. With him being around, everything would be properly arranged for her. In her heart, she really regarded him as a trustworthy family member. Sometimes if she had something that she felt embarrassed to tell her family, she would even ask him to pass the message for her. That kind of special relationship was like a very thin paper that should not be poked at. Otherwise, everything would change if it was ever being tampered with.

On the way, they walked for a long time, and neither of them spoke again.

It was not until the loud cheers in front that broke the silence. Victoria stuck her head out and said, "It's so lively! What's the matter?" "It's still early, let's go and have a look!" Clarence said.

"Ring tossing! It seems fun!" Victoria said as they squeezed into the crowd. It was a small activity, with a pile of gifts on the floor being lined with yellow ropes. There were people who were eager to try, and there were people who were lining up to toss the rings. It was full of laughters. There was a long-haired dog lying on the side with children running around. It was extremely lively.

As she looked around, Victoria saw a lot of prizes for redemption being placed on the side, and the host was shouting, "Ring your hearts together! With ten dollars, you may bring good luck home. With ten dollars, you can make your hearts think of the sthing. If both of you tossed on the sring, there will be a grand prize for you to bring htogether! The first prize is a pair of pure gold couple rings. The second prize is a 999 silver bracelet. The third prize is a custom-made soft toy. The single prize is the pink and blue love luck. Ladies and gentlemen, don't you want to try your luck and develop your ability to know each other's thoughts? You will only need ten dollars. It is going to be a perfect ten, and good things cin pairs. Everyone is welcomed to join..." She had no interest in the prizes, but when she saw that a lot of people were cheering in the line, Victoria was intrigued to try.

At that time, there was another man who was speaking.

"Congratulations, Miss. She got the number three pink dog soft toy with less than ten dollars. Was there anyone else who got the number three blue dog soft toy? You are welcto get to know this beautiful lady and form a team with her. This is your destiny! The double prize is even better!" Seeing the beautiful girl who looked like a student waving the soft toy in her hand, a group of people were cheering for it, and it made Victoria even more eager to try, "I'll go play, too!" Victoria exchanged 50 dollars worth of rings and ran to the front to throw them. Seeing that she was having fun, Clarence, who was behind her, also exchanged smoney for srings. He went forward and said, "I'll help you carry them, and you can focus on tossing!" "Okay!" Victoria said.

With great enthusiasm, Victoria took off her coat and handed all the remaining rings to Clarence. After choosing the target, she began to throw the rings at it one by one. After throwing all the rings she was holding, Clarence handed her more rings.

"I got it, I got it!" Victoria exclaimed.

After hooking the ring on a thin numbered block, Victoria was acting like a child who had just won a prize and almost jumped up on the spot. As they allowed three people to play at a time, she did not notice that the different groups of people had already cand gone around her, but it was as if she was having an endless supply of rings with her.

"I've gotten five! If I get another one, I think I can get the third prize!" Victoria cheered excitedly as she changed her targeted ring.

Seeing her cheeks turning red from the cold, Clarence just nodded his head and said, "Well, you can do it!" Then, he handed her a few more rings, and there was also an assistant who sold him extra rings when needed. Seeing that she had tossed the last one, Clarence said, "Take a rest! I'll get a double prize for you!" Looking at the targets that she got, Clarence took the twenty blue rings that he had exchanged and threw them all at the stargets. They were then all hooked with blue rings. As he turned his head, Victoria seemed to be impressed, "Wow..." Clarence smiled faintly and didn't say anything. That kind of gwas a disguised promotion. It was to coax those people who were as playful as her or sother greedy people! With just a glance, it was obvious that except for the top three prizes, the other prizes were all worthless little things! Moreover, the rings were obviously very light. In order to hook one properly, besides the way of holding it, one also had to pay attention to the wind direction and the angle that it was thrown.

As Victoria only got six rings hooked, no matter how many rings Clarence hooked, they could only get a double third prize or redeem their single prizes respectively. However, the best reward for the single prize was just a pure silver pendant.

In the end, they redeemed a set of exquisite cute rabbit toys. Victoria was very happy while holding them but she didn't know that the money she spent on throwing the rings was more than enough to just buy them.

A small interlude seemed to have eliminated the barrier between them, and they felt that they had gained a lot. When they separated, Victoria was in a good mood.

Back home, as Victoria carried the cute rabbit soft toys in one hand, while having the handbag and rose in the other hand, she hummed a song in a good mood. She did not notice that the luxury car that was already parked under the shadow of a wall, gleaming with a faint black light.

"Madam Victoria, you're home..." The servant greeted her.

"Yes..." Victoria replied.

While she was walking in, a se vant greeted her Victoria nodded happily and waved in response, but she didn't stop her steps. As such, even though the servant was winking at her for a long time, wanting to hint at her secretly, could only lower her head and look at her with sympathy.

When she went upstairs, she saw a red-colored light flashed in front of her eyes and suddenly realized that the rose in her hand seemed to be a little inappropriate. Turning around, she walked away and threw it into the nearest trash can near the stairs.

Upstairs, Trevor was just walking out to the corridor, just in tto witness the scene.

After throwing the rose away, Victoria patted her hands, carried her handbag while holding the bag and ran upstairs. She turned right immediately and didn't look around. She did not see the tall figure who was looking at her with a serious gaze from across the corridor.

Back in the room, Victoria, as usual, took off her coat and changed her shoes. She first tidied up the things she was holding and then opened the package which had the soft toys in it. She held one of the cute rabbits in her hand and starting petting them one by one. They were warm and furry, and it felt particularly comfortable in the cold night. "Lalala..." She chuckled and continued humming. She looked around, trying to find a suitable place to put the two big soft toys. Suddenly, she saw the dark shadow standing at the door as she turned around. All of her movements cto a sudden halt.

After being stunned for two seconds, Victoria said in a timid voice, "You are home!" Subconsciously, she looked up and glanced at the clock. It was just nine o'clock. Why did he chso early that day? The smile on her face was gone completely, and she casually put the two cute rabbit soft toys she was holding in her arms on the sofa. She treated them like pets while she touched the heads of the soft toys and said, "Well... I am going to take a shower!" Picking up the pajamas on the bed, she walked quickly into the bathroom.

During the whole time, Trevor did not move at all, but his eyes darkened a little. That was the first the m suddenly realized that she had changed into a totally different woman. She was distancing herself from him, and he had never been so sure of it before that! X
