Departure with a Belly Chapter 182

Chapter 182

Victoria never thought about getting Tony to leave everything to her.

Nevertheless, the fact that he was leaving the entire company to her touched her

deeply.

“That’s why you shouldn’t head back. You should stay here and help me with the

company.”

Although Victoria was moved, she raised her eyebrows and said, “I’m afraid I can’t.”

Tony was confused.

“Why not? Snowball, it’ll be very hard on you to raise two kids and start a company at

the same time.”

“I know it’ll be tiring, but it’ll give me a great sense of accomplishment too. I want to

start my own company, Dad.”

She wanted to give her children a good life herself.

Victoria didn’t know other people’s views on parenting, but when it came to her, she

figured that since she was now a mother and had the means of providing a better

life for her children, why shouldn’t she work hard and do so?

With that thought in mind, Victoria walked over to her father and hugged his arm the

way she did when she was a child. “Most importantly, Dad, your company’s doing

very well right now, so I have a safety net. Even if I fail, I have nothing to worry about

because I know you’ll be there to back me up.”

Tony’s heart melted.

As Victoria’s father, he was her rock and support. She would probably face

hardships, but he wanted her to know that he would always be a safe harbor she

could return to.

As long as she had a safety net, she would never have to be afraid of failure.

At long last, Tony sighed. “Starting a company is hard work, Snowball.”

Victoria had been waiting for him to say this all along. After hearing this, she

couldn’t help but laugh.

“I’m not scared of hard work, Dad.”

She realized it was true that a mother would be strong enough to do anything for

the sake of her children. Everything that she didn’t want to do or was afraid to do

was no longer an issue for her once she became a mother.

“No matter what happens, Snowball, remember this. I’m your father, and if you ever

run into any difficulties, you must give me a call.”

“I know, Dad.”

A few days later, the family went to the airport together.

Tony and Sasha reluctantly said their goodbyes to Victoria and the two children.

“When you’re back there, remember to take good care of yourself.”

“I will.”

“It won’t be easy for you to look after the two children by yourself. It’s best if you hire

a trustworthy nanny.”

Victoria took note of all her father’s advice.

“Alright. I’ll look into that as soon as I settle down.”

Once Tony was done, it was Sasha’s turn.

Victoria patiently took everything in.

Once the two older ones finished saying all they wanted to say, Summer came over

with reddened eyes.

“It has been five years since we last parted. I didn’t think I’d have to say goodbye to

you again. Don’t worry, Victoria. Once I resign from my job here, I’ll come over and

help you.”

“Don’t be silly. Why would you want to leave such a good job? You might not be able

to find another suitable position again.”

“Oh, please. What do you mean it’s a good job? I’m so busy that I can’t even get a

boyfriend.”

Then, Summer noticed something. “By the way, why isn’t Bane here? Does he not

plan on heading back with you?”

“An urgent matter came up so he can’t leave with us.”

“An urgent matter?” Summer scoffed quietly, “Is there anything more important to

him than you three? That’s a miracle.”

“Hey, now. Don’t speak so carelessly.”

“Well, he’s not too bad. Even though he can’t come with you, he left you his best

subordinate.”

Summer glanced at Ethan who was standing nearby with his luggage in tow.

Ethan caught her gaze and quickly smiled and nodded.

“Yeah. Mr. Hudson is heading back because he has urgent matters to attend to as

well.”

Summer didn’t tease Victoria this time. She simply hugged her and said, “Remember

to call me when you get there. I’ll come and look for you soon.”

“Yes, yes. You told me a thousand times already. I got it.”

All of a sudden, Nicole, who was still in Sasha’s arms, called out, “Mommy, I want to

use the restroom.”

“Grandma will take you.”

“I’ll take her, Sasha.”

Victoria passed her luggage to Ethan for safekeeping before taking Nicole into her

arms.

Then, she looked at Nathan. “Nathan, do you want to use the restroom?”

Nathan thought about it and nodded.

“Come on then. I’ll take them to the restroom.”

Summer quickly said, “Sure. I’ll line up at the security check for you. It’s right over

there.”

“Okay.”

Tony, Sasha, and Summer were just enough to help save a spot for Victoria and the

two children.

Victoria and her two kids went to the restroom nearest to them.

As Nathan had to use a different restroom, Victoria didn’t follow either of her

children in. Instead, she stood outside and explained to them what they needed to

do.

Once they understood everything, she let them enter the restrooms on their own.

“If you’re not sure how to use something, just ask someone, okay? Remember to

wash your hands when you’re done. I’ll be waiting for you right here, okay?”

The two children nodded obediently before entering the respective washrooms.

Victoria waited for them outside.

As soon as Nicole entered the women’s restroom, a loud exclaim

“Oh, my! What an adorable little girl!”

Victoria couldn’t help but smile at the praise.

rang out.

The airport at the capital had large restrooms that were well taken care of. The

janitors came over to tidy things up rather frequently.

When Nathan opened the door, he saw a man in a black suit who was on the phone.

Even his side profile was handsome. His cold gaze and thin lips made him look

rather stern and he gave off a chilly aura.

The person on the phone said something that made the man sneer.

Nathan blinked and walked further down the corridor. He had to open another door

to reach the restroom.

The door creaked as he pushed it, but he only managed to create a tiny gap.

Nathan was only five. He wasn’t strong enough yet, so he had to try and push with.

all his might.

The creaking sound echoed in the empty corridor.

Alaric frowned at the noise. He turned around to see where it was coming from.

He didn’t see anyone, but the door was still creaking. His gaze lowered and he finally

saw the young boy who was doing his best to open the door.

Alaric’s brows furrowed even more.

Whose child is this? Why did he come to the restroom alone?

Alaric was an aloof man who didn’t like to get involved with other people’s matters,

even children.

Yet, at this moment, his body moved before his mind could keep up. His hand was

already pressing against the door to help the little boy before he even processed

what was happening.

“Mr. Cadogan.”

Just then, he heard someone calling his name over the phone, so he carried on with

his conversation with his hand against the door.

Nathan, who had been doing his best to open the door this whole time, was startled

when the door finally moved easily. He looked up and saw the large hand holding

the door open.

He immediately thanked the person.

“Thanks, mister.”

The somewhat familiar-sounding voice made Alaric pause.
