A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 197 Call Me Dear Brother

Anne was taken aback by the coldness in Victor's eyes. Her eyes shifted to the side and became glazed with a glassy layer of tears. As she blinked, they dripped from her eyelids and slid down her cheeks.

"Anne..." Flustered, Victor murmured, seeing the tears on her face. The usual coldness on his expression was replaced by a sense of helplessness so quickly as if Anne had unknowingly flicked a switch in Victor's heart.

"You're very mean," said Anne, feeling wronged. Her eyes and the tip of her nose reddened with shame as she lowered her head and continued crying, like a weak little kid that had been bullied at school.

"I'm sorry," Victor apologized immediately. The sight of Anne breaking down into tears broke Victor's icy heart to pieces. It didn't matter to him whether he was right or wrong anymore. The next second he pulled her into his arms and said,"I shouldn't have said that. I am sorry. It was my fault. Please, don't cry."

'How could I forget that she's not strong enough to handle harsh words? And she's not strong enough to bear such behavior from me, ' he thought.

Resting her head on his chest, Anne grasped this opportunity and said,"I want some strawberry cakes."

Victor's attitude softened as he said,"Okay, I'll get you some, later."

"I want two," she insisted.

"No..." answered Victor.

Anne sniffled into his sleeves and began crying again at Victor's words.

"Well, all right, as you wish," agreed Victor. He thought it was more important to calm her down first, so he promised without delay.

Having achieved her goals, Anne wiped the tears off her face at once. Her tear smudged face made her look like a tender kitten.

"..." Meanwhile, Emily watched and listened to the two of them compassionately, as they argued and then made up within minutes.

Finally, turning his attention to Emily, Victor sneered and said,"Emily, you've tried countless times to escape, but you've failed every time. I think you should give up on trying."

Emily frowned, and asked gloomily,"Did you install a signal jammer on me?"

"Yes. I won't let you escape. The whole region is under my control, so I suggest you stop wasting efforts on trying to contact Jacob. Guards, take her away,"
