Departure with a Belly ( Victoria Selwyn & Alaric Cadogan’s )
Departure with a Belly Chapter 142

Chapter 142 

Alaric frowned at Mary’s reprimand. 

E 

He almost spilled the news that they would be divorcing, but when he was 

about to say it, he remembered trying to hide something when he was 

young, and his mother had tried to get the information from him. 

His mother had tricked him into saying it using her words. 

In reality, his mother didn’t know the truth at all. 

This time might be no different. 

While thinking of this, Alaric’s dark eyes gleamed. 

His mother might be the same woman she had always been, but Alaric 

was no longer the little child from back then. 

“I didn’t mean to hide it from you. You’ve always known there’s been 

conflict between us, right?” 

Alaric decided to take a step back.

If Mary knew about the divorce, she would let it slip after he said that. 

Just as expected, when Mary heard him say that, she replied a little 

suspiciously, “Was it just a minor conflict, though? Things are so tense 

between you two right now, so how can that be a minor conflict? Or do 

you not care about Victoria at all, and that’s why you think it’s minor?” 

Alaric fell silent. 

“Don’t blame me for nagging, but if you keep treating the conflict between 

you and Victoria so nonchalantly, minor conflicts will eventually turn into 

huge ones, and it’ll be too late by then.” 

When Alaric heard Mary saying that, he didn’t retort. Instead, he just 

stayed silent. 

“Forget it, I don’t understand youngsters these days. Just don’t regret it 

later.” 

With that, Mary hung up right away. 

Since Victoria didn’t have to undergo the check–up, there was no point in 

Mary staying here. In the end, Mary decisively turned around and went to

the ward to accompany Griselda. 

After Victoria left, she discreetly followed Samantha and Sandy.

No matter what the others thought, she only wanted to do one thing at the 

moment; she wanted to tell Sandy the truth. 

As for Sandy’s decision after knowing the truth, Victoria wouldn’t interfere 

with that. 

However, she wasn’t sure why they had come to the hospital. 

Weren’t they always afraid that the others would find out? 

As she pondered, Victoria noticed Samantha whispering something to 

Sandy. Then, Samantha went to the consultation room with her number. 

Sandy waited for her outside. 

Sometime later, before Samantha came back out, Victoria walked over to 

Sandy.

When Sandy heard the footsteps, she raised her head. She was stunned 

when she saw Victoria. 

However, she wasn’t surprised. They had bumped into each other when 

they were in the hospital before. 

After a few seconds, Sandy put on a timid smile, the same one she had 

every time they met each other. 

“Victoria.” 

Victoria smiled at her as well. 

Sometime later, she sat down next to Sandy. 

Perhaps not expecting Victoria to sit, Sandy looked confused for a 

moment. 

“Are you accompanying your mom to the hospital?”

After taking her seat, Victoria lightly started their conversation with a topic. 

Sandy thought Victoria was waiting as well, so she nodded.

“Yeah, my mom hasn’t been feeling well these days.” 

When Victoria heard that, she could more or less understand why 

Samantha would bring Sandy here. Perhaps because she was the one 

feeling unwell, and she was the one taking the number, she wasn’t worried 

that people would start rumors. 

By the looks of it, Samantha wouldn’t be coming out anytime soon, so 

Victoria could chat longer with Sandy. 

However, Victoria gazed at the people walking around them. 

A moment later, she said quietly, “This isn’t a good place to talk. Shall we 

go somewhere else?” 

When she said that, Sandy’s originally shy expression shifted, and the red 

tint on her lips instantly disappeared. 

“W–What are we going to talk about?” Sandy asked, stuttering. 

Victoria smiled. 

“Life, of course.”

Sandy was speechless. 

“What’s the matter? Don’t you want to?” 

Noticing that Sandy was getting so nervous that she was gripping her 

skirt, Victoria couldn’t help but chuckle. “Am I too scary?” 

“O–Of course not. I just-” 

“Come on.” 

Victoria was already standing up. 

Sandy bit her lower lip, remaining seated with a complicated expression. 

When Victoria saw Sandy like that, she guessed that Sandy already knew 

what she was going to talk about. 

She wasn’t in a rush either, so she found a middle ground. 

“There’s a street outside the hospital, and you can find a restaurant 

serving specialty breakfasts. Do you know which one I’m talking about?” 

When Sandy heard that, she was a little stunned. She nodded after a

while. “Yes.” 

Victoria lifted her hand and glanced at the time on her watch, then said, 

“I’ll be waiting there for you for 30 minutes. If you don’t appear by then, I’ll 

just leave. You can consider coming over in the meantime.” 

Sandy fell silent. 

When Victoria finished speaking, she didn’t stand there and disturb 

Sandy’s thoughts. Instead, she left the hospital quickly. 

Sandy stared at Victoria’s figure thoughtfully, her nails digging into her. 

palms. 

Should she go or not? Victoria seemed to respect her, so if she didn’t go, 

Victoria wouldn’t come back to look for her. 

“Sandy.”

Just then, Samantha came out of the consultation room and called out to 

her. 

Sandy returned to her senses and hastily went up to ask, “How was it,

Mom? What did the doctor say?” 

Samantha was obviously in a much better mood than before.

“The doctor said that I’m fine, and he asked if I was overthinking things. He 

told me to be more optimistic, and there’s nothing wrong with me.” 

When Sandy heard that, she couldn’t help but lower her gaze. 

“Is it because of me?” 

“You should know that, Because of you, I was so worried that I couldn’t 

even eat properly, and I lost so much weight. If you care about me, you 

should listen to me. You shouldn’t-” 

When Samantha said that, she suddenly paused. “Never mind. The walls 

have ears. It wouldn’t do to have people eavesdropping. Anyway, you 

should decide quickly. You can’t delay it any longer.” 

Sandy lowered her gaze and stayed timidly silent. 

Just like that, Samantha nagged her daughter all the way to the entrance 

of the hospital. When they were about to get into the car, Sandy suddenly

said, “Mom, you should go back first. I have something to attend to.” 

Samantha, who was already in a troubled mood, immediately said 

sharply, “Where are you going, Sandy? You’re going to see that man again, 

aren’t you?” 

Samantha even grabbed Sandy’s hand as she nagged. 

“I’ve told you so many times that you’re not allowed to see him anymore, 

so why are you still so shameless? What’s so good about that man? He’s 

just a poor man, and look at how poor he looks! He just wants to be with 

you for your money.” 

When Sandy heard her mother slandering the love of her life like that, the 

look in her eyes changed. She wanted to explode, but since the woman in 

front of her was her mother, she controlled her temper in the end. 

“Mom, I’m not going to see him. Why would you think that I’m going to see 

him every time I want to go out? Do you think he’s the only one left in my 

world? Don’t I have other friends?”
