Chapter 321 Five Years of Neglect
Even from afar, Victoria saw a few familiar silhouettes standing outside the entrance.
When she got closer, she recognized who they were. West, Norwood, and… Claudia.
The sight of Claudia reminded her of their meeting at the auction. Since then, she had
never seen her around Alaric, until now. My kids are still in the house, and she’s here
now…
The look on her face changed and she hurried to the villa, but when she got closer, she
saw West trying to get inside the house only to be tossed out by Alaric. He fell down
right in front of her. Norwood and Claudia froze for a long while before they helped him
up, then they saw her shadow on the ground. They looked up and met her eyes, then
everyone’s attention fell on her.
The sight of Victoria sent an electric current coursing through Claudia’s veins, and her
eyes went wide in disbelief. Even though Alaric didn’t want to date her for the last five
years, there hadn’t been any women around him, so Claudia thought she was the most.
special of them all. As time went by, she began to worry if Victoria might break their
accord and come back. If she did, Claudia knew she would never win this battle of
romance.

someone else after five years. Five years isn’t a short time. Anything can change.
However, when she saw Victoria again, Claudia knew she had no chance of winning. Five years had
gone by, and Victoria looked even more mature than ever. Her maturity. made her alluring, and perhaps
because she had given birth, she looked gentler than
ever.
Even Claudia found herself mesmerized by this woman, let alone men. But more
importantly, why is she here? Is that girl really her daughter? If that’s the case, then why
is she in Alaric’s house? A dozen questions raced through her mind, and Claudia
connected them to form a clear storyline of what must have happened. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
Norwood had his suspicions too, and when Victoria showed up, his suspicions were
confirmed. West was lying on the ground. He knew his friends were going to help him
up, so he was waiting for them. In fact, he was waiting for Claudia so he could have
skin contact with her. Yet, for some reason, they stopped and stared at something
behind him. Since West was fine anyway, he quickly got up, then he looked behind as
well.
“Victoria?” he gasped. “Why are you here?”
Alaric was about to close the door. I just left a bad impression on her, but I’m fine. I
don’t care. I just want them to be safe. And then Victoria showed up as if on cue,
making things worse.

Chapter 321 Five Years of Neglect
Victoria looked at the crowd, then at the irritated Alaric, and she had a guess of what
might have happened, but she had no intention of dealing with this crowd. She just
wanted to take her kids back. Anyone who was not related to her or her children was
none of her business.
Just as Victoria walked ahead so that she could take her kids back, West pointed at her
and roared, “Why is she here? I thought you two are divorced? And who are those kids?
Are they yours?” He screeched like a madman, clutching his chest in pain. “How could
you do this to Claudia?”
Claudia teared up and bit her lip tightly, but Alaric looked at West like he was a fool. The
look in his eyes infuriated West, and West turned to Claudia. The tearful lady riled up
something within him. He liked this woman and he wanted to spoil her all he could, but
Alaric was treating her like a ragdoll. The thought of that enraged West. “You’re going to
explain yourself, or there will be hell to pay,
Alaric!”
West tried to grab Alaric by his collar, but Alaric shot him an icy look before West could
get close. “Don’t touch me,” he said icily, the air around him getting colder.
Shocked, West froze and stopped in his tracks. “Fine, but you must explain yourself.”
“Why?” Alaric looked at him coldly. “I don’t remember having to report to you about my
business.”
Chapter 321 Five Years of Neglect
West’s eyes went wide. “Your business? This is also Claudia’s business. You know how
much she loves you, and you’re going to betray her for this woman? How could you?” he
roared so loud that the resident next door might be alarmed.
Victoria didn’t want any part in this. They could argue for all she cared, and she would
wait until they were done before she went inside, but then she caught sight of her kids
coming closer. They were standing on their tiptoes behind Alaric and looking around,
their interest piqued by the argument.
Victoria’s face fell. I can’t let the kids hear this. It’s going to corrupt them. She couldn’t
wait any longer, so she walked forward. This has nothing to do with me. I’ll just take the
kids and leave. They can sort it out among themselves.
For some reason, her sudden movement enraged West, and he grabbed her shoulder.
“She left you on a whim and didn’t even care about you for five years. She didn’t even
come back for Griselda’s funeral, and yet you’re betraying Claudia for her? Are you
mad?”
Victoria frowned. Just when she was about to break free, Alaric flew into a rage. He
strode over, the look on his face dark. “Get your f*cking hand off her, West!”
