Victor was lost in thought. ‘The Rachel now is bold enough to bash a person’s head with a bottle. Her tongue is so sharp that even Ivan would be rendered speechless before her. She’s become so stubborn, and she wouldn’t cry even when she’s hurt. Even when people were walking all over her, she doesn’t cause a scene like before. She’s surprisingly calm and composed now. And she’s always trying to solve her problems on her own.”

When those thoughts flooded into his mind, Victor felt a pang in his heart. He suddenly realized that Rachel had really become a completely different person, someone he could no longer recognize.
And it seemed as though he could lose her at any moment.
A feeling of loss arose from his heart, and it annoyed him to have such feelings. Victor didn’t even realize that he wanted to hold Rachel in his arms right now.
At last, Olivia was done with her story.
“Rachel, is there anything you’d like to say in your defense,” Victor asked, staring at Rachel’s beautiful face.
When she heard his question, she was actually surprised. She thought that he would make a decision without even asking for her side of the story. She had even considered the possibility that he would either lock her in her bedroom to reflect on her actions, or drive her out of the Sue Garden.
But to her surprise, he wanted to hear what she had to say.
Rachel turned to Olivia, and she could feel how nervous the woman was. She then turned to Victor, and said, “I have nothing to say.”
She had no idea why Victor would want to hear her side, but she was sure that if she denied the accusation and explained herself, he probably wouldn’t believe her. And since she was determined to protect the baby in her womb, she had to mind her words. She could no longer say whatever she wanted Like before, so she might as well keep her mouth shut and save herself the trouble.
When Olivia heard Rachel’s answer, she looked at the latter in astonishment.

Victor was surprised as well. Apparently, he didn’t expect that Rachel would pass off the chance to defend herself. He scowled and asked, “Are you saying that Olivia is telling the truth?”
Upon hearing that, Olivia was worried again, looking at Rachel vigilantly.
Now, Rachel was confused.
She never imagined that Victor would say something like that. She had led herself to believe that after she declined the chance to voice out her side of the story, he would automatically condemn her for hurting Olivia, and that he would command her to apologize to Olivia.
‘Have pigs begun to fly?’ Rachel wondered. ‘No, that’s impossible.
Something strange must be going on in Victor’s brain.’
“If I told you that Olivia was lying, would you believe me? If I said that I don’t know how she hurt her arm, and that she never came to my room, would be you believe me? In fact, would you believe anything I said?” Rachel looked at Victor challengingly. Her tone was level and calm, as if she didn’t care whether he chose to believe her or not.
Victor just looked at her and said nothing.
It came as no surprise to Rachel when Victor remained silent; she’d been expecting it. But now that she’d accused Olivia of lying, she had to prove it. She’d always lived by those morals; keep quiet when necessary, or defend herself until she could prove she was right.
“Olivia, could you tell me when you came to my room and offered me something to eat? Or better yet, what did you offer me?” Rachel asked with a pleasant smile.
Olivia averted her eyes, choosing instead to stare at a point just past Rachel.
“Well…” she started, “I came to your room about an hour ago. I brought you a glass of milk with cinnamon and honey in it.”
“And where is the milk now?” Rachel asked.
“It… It’s…” Olivia suddenly lost her nerve and ability to lie.
