Chapter 17
Victor furrowed his brows slightly, but before he could turn around, he was embraced by someone, and a sweet, cloying perfume invaded his nostrils.
Kaleigh held him tightly, his body trembling uncontrollably.
“Victor, Victor, you finally came back…”
Victor was about to push her away, but a figure swiftly stepped in before him and forcefully pulled
the woman away.
“Victor, are you okay?”
Victor shook his head.
Leonel looked at the woman in front of him, his gaze cold.
“Kaleigh, how dare you show your face to Victor!”
As soon as he saw her, Leonel would be reminded of the grievances Victor had suffered for five years, and his anger grew stronger in his heart.
Kaleigh opened her mouth, wanting to explain further.
Victor, who was standing nearby, stepped forward to intervene.
“Bro, let’s talk somewhere else.”
He did not want to ruin the art exhibition that he and his friend had worked so hard to prepare.
The coffee shop on the second floor.
Leonel stood in front of Kaleigh, questioning him, with Lizeth by his side.
“Victor and you had already divorced, why do you still come to disturb him!”
Kaleigh looked at the indifferent face of the boy behind Leonel, and her heart felt like it was being tightly squeezed, causing her unbearable pain and making it difficult for her to breathe.
Victor had never faced him with this expression before.
At the moment of seeing Victor again, there were many things she wanted to ask him in her heart.
In the end, there was only one sentence.
“Victor, why did you want to divorce me?”
Lizeth rolled her eyes, what a stupid question.

Victor calmly looked at him.
“I have finished repaying the favor, so I naturally have to leave.”
From the moment she signed the divorce agreement, he knew that his act of revenge would also be
presented to her.
“So, all the kindness you showed me in these five years was just because of repaying a debt?”
Kaleigh tightly held onto their hand and tremblingly spoke.
“Yes.”
Victor remained calm as ever, as if he had thought of something, and then he spoke.
“From the moment Kassandra had me sign the favor agreement. Our relationship was solely based
on gratitude. I constantly reminded myself of that, so immediately after signing the document, I
prepared a divorce agreement.”
Speaking of which, Kaleigh was the first woman he had dated, and he was getting married before he
entered society.
With a pure mind, he was afraid of being deceived by the illusion of these five years, so he had
prepared a divorce agreement early on.
Whenever I felt myself falling for her, I would take out the divorce agreement to remind myself.
The relationship and gap between them.
Did you ever try to fall in love with Kaleigh?
Maybe, yes.
Just as his heart began to blossom, she repeatedly abandoned him for Dorian.
Any normal person would feel tired, let alone someone like him who always repays kindness.
It would be nice if I didn’t dislike her.
Five years is a long time, so long that he thought this would be how his whole life would be.
In a blink of an eye, he completely freed himself from her and went abroad.
With emotionless yet realistic words, one after another, Kaleigh’s face grew paler and paler.
“Kaleigh, I have never loved you, neither in the past, nor now, nor in the future.”
“Between us, there was only gratitude.”

What her reaction was, Victor didn’t care at all.
He just wanted to finish this matter quickly and then go down to deal with the things at the art
exhibition.
Kaleigh wanted to stop him, but Leonel kept standing in front of her.
She could only watch helplessly as Victor’s figure disappeared behind the door.
This art exhibition was not affected by this small incident and was eventually held successfully.
To celebrate him, Leonel and Lizeth specifically booked a restaurant he liked.
The meal had not been served yet when a bouquet of bright and dripping roses was delivered.
“Excuse me,
who is Mr. Walton? These flowers are from Ms. McCann, specifically to congratulate
Mr. Walton on the successful art exhibition.”
Victor never answered the call, he just asked the waiter to go back the same way.
“Could you please tell Ms. McCann that I didn’t like red roses?”
The red rose was Dorian’s favorite type, he only liked roses with thorns.
