Unwanted Daddy Don't Come Closer to Mommy novel Chapter 1167

When Victor saw her come with him, shortly after a trance, he remained calm again, as if it was a disillusion.

Victor became famous when he was still young. It was uneasy to figure out what kind of person he was. He was used to controlling the situation and never allowed himself to go beyond his control.

Silence gradually hung in the air, and Elinor felt it and glanced at her watch. It was around 12 o'clock.

At this time years ago, she would prepare gifts and cakes and send her blessings to Victor on time at twelve o'clock.

She didn't do such things for two years.

She may be unfamiliar to these things now. She looked up at Victor who was waiting for the lights to dim, and sneered slowly.

Victor may not cherish her previous companion at his birthdays now.

And he may want to forget the bad memories with her.

Sure enough, five minutes before twelve o'clock, the lights of the venue dimmed, leaving only a warm yellow light on Victor who was standing in the center of the stage.

In a suit, he should already be regarded as a man, not a boy, calm, mature and impressive.

Elinor eyed him for a long moment and then took back her eyes.

Victor, we haven't seen each other for two years. You are still surrounded by the attention and pursuit of others, while I am still a nobody hidden in your shadow.

But it is also good.

I am too humble to stand by you.

Elinor shook her head with self-mockery. For an ordinary person like her, she should live a normal but happy life herself. What Victor once said was right. She can't match Rankin and himself.

Kemp saw Darleen on the other side of the stage shooting a video, froze, shook Elinor's sleeve. "Look! Is that Darleen?"

Hearing his words, she stiffened, looked in the direction pointed by him, and saw Darleen. But everyone's attention was paid to Victor, so nobody cared about her position on the stage.

She seemed to be a good match for Victor.

She was a noble lady of the Harvell family, and he was a powerful man of the Borris family. They were a good match.

Elinor said to Kemp, "Yeah, it's her."

"Their secret affairs were in the open."

"It's a secret anymore. Darleen always followed Victor wherever he went. Can't you see that?"

"They have been in relationship for a long time. They have known each other since in high school. Victor is always cold, and only Darleen can stay with him."

It was right. Others girls once tried to hang up with Victor, but he was so cold. He was only patient when Darleen talked to him.

Victor went down, and many people below waited to make a toast to him. Elinor and Kaliyah were squeezed by the crowd. Kaliyah was impatient. "Holy fuck. They're happier to see Victor than their parents. These fucking..."

Before she finished, she was dragged by Elinor. "Stop, Kaliyah, your father's friends are among them."

"I can't bear that." Kaliyah's eyes were rimmed red. "I only tolerate you. I can't bear that scumbag—after he did so many disgusting events, how can he still be flattered by others? Draleen met him in high school? What the fuck is it? You've known each other over a decade. How can he just abandon your relationship?"

How can he just abandon your relationship?

The heat stung Elinor's eyes when hearing her words. But she can't allow Kaliyah to be so excited, so she can only pull her to a quieter place. "I've worked through it! You don't have to feel distressed for me again. I'm fine."
