Departure with a Belly ( Victoria Selwyn & Alaric Cadogan’s )
Departure with a Belly Chapter 446

Chapter 446 

Terrance immediately caught on to Victoria’s point when he heard her saying she 

wasn’t sure where to look for Bane. “Miss Selwyn, is this your first visit to this country?” 

Victoria thought about it for a while and then shook her head. “No, it’s not my first, but I 

did visit this place alone once and only stayed for two days.” Furthermore, I stayed in a 

hotel during my last visit, and this is exactly why I have no idea about this ‘same place‘ 

Bane mentioned. Forget about my last visit. I don’t think there is actually any other 

place where I can meet Bane except for the villa he had taken me to. After all, that was 

where I spent the longest time in this particular country. 

Terrance also fell into deep thought after hearing Victoria’s response. “Is it possible that 

the place he mentioned isn’t in this city or country?” 

Victoria initially harbored similar thoughts. However, knowing Bane’s personality, she 

figured it was unlikely that he would lie to her. In addition, even if she did come to the 

wrong place, Bane should have told her during their phone call earlier. After all, he was 

the one who wanted to see her and ‘coincidentally‘ knew her flight number. 

“I don’t think so. Just head to the villa if I really can’t think of anywhere else.” Besides, 

there is no other place in this country that Bane and I had been to other than that villa. 

Hence, I can only go there if I want to find Bane. 

Terrance instantly became a little helpless as well. Still, he also knew that there was

really nothing he could do at the moment. “In that case, Miss Selwyn, why don’t we rest 

for today and go there tomorrow?” If truth be told, Terrance was worried sick about 

Alaric. Yet, he knew he had no right to request Victoria to rescue Alaric as soon as 

possible. In addition, he always felt that with their capabilities, they should be able to 

think of a plan to save Alaric without dragging Victoria into this. Although Terrance and 

the others had yet to locate Alaric’s whereabouts and couldn’t even figure out just how 

Alaric would fall into Bane’s hands, as Alaric’s subordinate, Terrance naturally sided 

with his boss. Mr. Cadogan is shrewd. So, even if he actually fell for Bane’s scheme, it’s 

definitely due to Bane’s viperish nature. 

“We will head there now.” Victoria’s voice snapped Terrance out of his thoughts, and he 

happened to meet Victoria’s eyes, catching sight of her dispassionate stare. 

Terrance was momentarily stunned before coming back to his senses, muttering, 

“Then, our men…” 

Victoria gently breathed out a sigh. “Since he already knows where I am, that means he 

knows everything about my itinerary and the people around me.” 

Judging from Victoria’s words, Terrance knew she wasn’t planning on taking anyone 

with her. 

“There’s no way we can allow you to do that. Miss Selwyn, what if something happens if 

you go there by yourself? How should I explain to Mr. Cadogan when he returns?”

Victoria was already in a bad mood after having been in a state of anxiety these days.

Now that she heard the words that escaped Terrance’s lips, she couldn’t help but 

breathe out a noisy sigh of frustration. Regardless, Victoria quickly suppressed any 

outburst when she understood that Terrance was simply concerned for her safety. Still, 

her tone was tinged with slight frustration as she lectured, “Stop being so indecisive, 

will you? Do you even want to rescue Alaric?” 

Terrance blinked in the face of her sharp words. Then, he soon realized that he was 

being rather long–winded. 

Victoria massages her temples, obviously having a headache worrying her mind about 

this matter. “Show them the road to the villa. I will walk over to the villa myself once we 

are almost there,” she ordered wearily. 

Terrance parted his lips and wanted to say something, anything. Alas, he could only 

bite back his protests when he saw that Victoria had already made herself comfortable 

on the seat with her eyes closed, clearly indicating that she had no intentions of 

continuing this discussion. He knew that she was only reacting so strongly because of 

Alaric’s disappearance and Bane’s part in it. I understand how anxious Miss Selwyn is 

right now. After all, we still can’t locate Mr. Cadogan after losing contact with him for 

such a long time. 

As Terrance thought of that, he had no choice but to pass the order to the driver in a 

low voice before drawing up a plan in his mind. The duty of protecting Miss Selwyn falls

The road to the villa still wasn’t that smooth. At first, Victoria could rest on the seat with 

her eyes closed. As time went by, her face turned ghastly. Perhaps it was because she 

had barely eaten in the past two days. Therefore, her stomach wasn’t feeling well at the 

moment. Moreover, the journey was so bumpy. Eventually, she could feel nausea rising 

within the depths of her empty belly, but she could only endure it with her utmost 

strength. 

Once the car stopped, the first thing Victoria did when she got out of the car was to 

rush to the roadside and vomit. 

“Miss Selwyn!” Terrance freaked out when he saw her acting this way. Hence, he 

immediately opened the car door, stepped out of the car, and dashed to Victoria’s side. 

“Are you okay, Miss Selwyn?” 

When he noticed Victoria, who was squatting by the roadside under a strong breeze, he 

thought for a moment before hastily taking off his coat and putting it on her. After that, 

he helped the pale–looking Victoria up. 

“I’m fine.” 

Only then did Terrance notice that Victoria’s face was as pale as a sheet. He didn’t even 

notice how uncomfortable Victoria was as he was busy instructing the driver and 

immersed in his train of thought. Judging from Miss Selwyn’s current state, she 

Chapter 446 He Knows Everything 

probably got motion sickness from the overly bumpy car ride earlier. While Terrance 

was speculating the cause of her discomfort, Victoria put his mind to rest by saying, 

“I’m just suffering from motion sickness. I will be okay after a minute.”

“I’m sorry, Miss Selwyn. The road to the villa is too bumpy. I should have asked them to 

drive slower.” I have to say–Miss Selwyn is pretty good at enduring her motion 

sickness. She actually managed to tough it through the entire journey without a word 

of complaint. 

Nonetheless, Victoria merely flashed Terrance a smile, signaling to him she was all 

right. Afterward, she stood still for a moment. Then, she returned Terrance’s coat to 

him. 

“It’s okay, Miss Selwyn. Just wear it. Taking care of you is what I should do. Besides, it’s 

just a piece of clothing.” 

Since she broke out in a cold sweat due to her motion sickness, she was feeling rather 

chilly, enough that she wanted to shiver as she stood outside the car. To make matters 

worse, the cold breeze brushed against her, forcing the coldness to seep into her 

bones. Unfortunately, as the coat belonged to Terrance, Victoria felt bad for ‘borrowing‘ 

1. it. Therefore, Victoria’s stress immediately lifted when she heard Terrance say she 

could wear it. After she thanked Terrance, she immediately put the coat back on. 

She glanced at the road ahead and then instructed, “This is the place. Wait outside. I’ll 

go in and have a look.”

Terrance stared at her hesitantly, clearly thinking that they shouldn’t endanger her 

safety. 

“Now, now. Don’t worry about me. Bane wouldn’t dare to harm me. Moreover, I will 

definitely rescue Alaric. I can only escape when he’s safe. Isn’t that right, Mr. Levane?” 

Terrance bit his lower lip upon hearing her reassurances and attempted to persuade 

Victoria, “But what if he doesn’t keep his promise?” 

Victoria simply graced him with a faint smile and said, “I have ways to deal with him if 

he doesn’t keep his promise, so don’t worry.” 

After that, she turned around and left without any further hesitation. 

Meanwhile, Terrance stood in place and watched as the slender figure in front of him 

walked farther and farther away with firm strides that displayed not even a hint of 

hesitance under the chilly breeze. 

There was still some distance away between the car and the villa. No one was around, 

and it took Victoria a while to walk up to the front of the villa. The door was shut. She 

glanced around before looking up. Her gaze met the surveillance camera on top of her. 

At this moment, Victoria, who believed Bane had made sufficient preparations, looked 

at the camera and cut to the chase. “Tell Bane that I have arrived.”

Then, she walked up to the chair by the front door, sat down, and tightened the collar of 

the coat. I have never seen this chair here. Was it prepared just for me? Victoria 

counted down the seconds as she waited. 

After she waited for about two minutes, the door finally opened. Victoria turned around 

and looked in the direction of the door. Her pupils dilated in surprise when she saw the 

nearing figure. Frankly speaking, Victoria did take into consideration that Bane wouldn’t 

show up at all. Likewise, she also speculated that there was a chance that she wouldn’t 

get to see Bane here today at all. Regardless, she didn’t expect that she would 

encounter this person here…
