Chapter 4

"Ouch!"

Fortunately, Victoria's car had good safety features, so nothing serious happened - just her forehead hitting the steering wheel and getting cut.

She pressed her forehead and went to open the door of the other car.

The silver Santana looked even worse than her car. She struggled to drag the driver out.

The other person had gone into shock from the violent impact.

Although she wasn't a trauma specialist, as a doctor, she had learned basic first aid.

After her efforts, the person finally regained some consciousness.

A crowd gathered around, and many people took out their phones to record videos.

Soon, the video of Victoria saving someone was posted online.

Because Victoria had been trending last night, plus her highly recognizable face, people recognized her almost instantly.

"Isn't this Bianca's sister? The one who bullied Bianca last night?"

"That's her. The injury on her forehead looks pretty serious, but even in this situation, she still went to save someone."

"This kind of thing can't be staged, right? The cars are wrecked like that. If Victoria hadn't been lucky, she might have died."

......

On the way to the hospital in the ambulance, Victoria saw last night's trending topic.

It turned out that in the early morning, Bianca had posted on social media.

It was a set of very delicate pearl jewelry, with the caption: [Although I got something better, it's still not what I wanted.]

Netizens below were guessing what she meant.

[Bianca is sad she didn't get the pocket watch she liked.]

[Her sister is so mean. Not only did she steal Bianca's fiancé, she even has to keep a pocket watch for herself.]

[Where does a poor doctor like her get so much money? Must be from men. Not like our Bianca, who relies on her own abilities.]

[Her sister really doesn't look like Bianca at all. Maybe she was adopted.]

Reading the last comment, Victoria couldn't help but laugh.

Back then, when she was brought home, her parents didn't even introduce her to relatives and friends to protect Bianca's feelings. They just said she was adopted by the Ashford family, and no one knew that Bianca actually wasn't an Ashford at all.

But none of that mattered anymore.

......

At the hospital, Victoria had a full body checkup.

Later, at her colleague's suggestion, she was admitted.

As soon as she got to her room, she heard a knock on the door.

"Edward." Seeing Edward, Victoria felt a bit embarrassed. "I'm sorry, I made you worry again."

"It's my job to care about you. Why are you being so formal with me? Are we still friends?"

Victoria: "Of course we are."

Suddenly, she felt a pain in her head and couldn't help but frown.

This subtle change couldn't escape Edward's eyes. "Don't move. Your forehead wasn't bandaged properly and it's bleeding. Let me fix it for you."

"Okay." Victoria sat obediently.

Suddenly, the hospital room door was roughly pushed open.

William's angry voice rang out at the door.

"What are you two doing?"

At the same time, Bianca's affected voice followed.

"Victoria, did we interrupt you two?" She looked at Edward with a half-smile. "After all these years, you and Edward are still so close. If you hadn't married William, I would have thought you two would be together."

"William, you don't know this, but my sister doesn't like making friends. Edward is her only male friend. My mom used to think my sister was dating him."

"You've known each other since childhood?" William's face darkened.

Victoria didn't understand why William cared about her relationship with other men when he didn't like her at all.

"You're overthinking it. We're just colleagues."

She knew William's temper and didn't want Edward to be resented by him.

Hearing this, a flash of sadness crossed Edward's eyes, but he quickly covered it up.

"Just colleagues? Don't you have plenty of colleagues in this hospital? Why don't I see others caring about you? Now I know why you're so eager to divorce me - so that's how it is. Want a divorce? Dream on!"

This woman married him for money back then. After two years of not getting what she wanted from him, she wants to divorce and find someone else.

Not a chance!

Victoria looked at his angry face, feeling somewhat tired.

"William, even if I did take advantage of you to marry you back then, I've already realized my mistake and want to set you free. Why are you being so unreasonable? Or are you saying you've fallen in love with this vain woman?"

This sentence somehow hit William's sore spot.

"Victoria, shut up!"

Seeing this, Bianca also came to stir up trouble.

"Victoria, how can you make William unhappy? He's very busy every day, and he still made time to see you. What more do you want?"

She positioned herself between Victoria and William.

Victoria felt sick looking at her fake face.

She was just an ordinary person, yet she was being cyberbullied because of Bianca.

Since this morning, her phone had received countless abusive messages and calls.

And the culprit was still putting on an act in front of her as if nothing had happened.

"Get lost."

Victoria just lightly touched Bianca's arm, but she crashed hard into the metal bed frame.

"Ah, it hurts!"

William's face instantly turned ice-cold.

He shoved Victoria aside.

Victoria hit the nearby shelf unprepared, the pain making her frown immediately.

But William's entire attention was on Bianca. He had no idea how hard he had pushed or what harm he had caused her.

"Victoria, have you made enough trouble! If anything happens to Bianca and the baby, I won't let you off easily."

Seeing how worried he was, Victoria's heart ached so much she could barely breathe.

After saying that, William bent down to carry Bianca away.

Bianca rested her head on William's shoulder and flashed Victoria a victor's smile.

She mouthed: "I beat you again."
