Chapter 672
Sensing Victoria's inattentiveness, Alicia then sat down beside her and asked, "What's on your mind?" Alicia felt that something was constantly bothering her. Moreover, there was a sentimental expression that crept over her.
All of a sudden, Victoria came to her senses and quickly shook her head while a wry smile appeared from the corner of her lips. She had no idea how to describe the thoughts that flashed across her mind.
Alicia could comprehend the anticipation and fear that Victoria was experiencing before the wedding. After all, she had sat in a dressing room similar to this one before. Right then, Alicia held her hand and said,
"I know what you're worried about! Vicki, nothing can harm us as long as our hearts are strong enough! Even if you're married to an old and ugly cripple, could you whole-heartedly guarantee that he'll be gentle, considerate, and loyal for the rest of his life? Since we have to choose a man, why not choose a handsome guy instead?"
Men treasured beauty. So why couldn't women be the same too? At worst, they would just divorce each other! Based on her condition, it wouldn't be a problem for her to have other guys later on in her life!
Although that thought did occur to her, but she just held her tongue on the day of the wedding. It was Victoria's big day after all! Deep down, Alicia subconsciously hoped that she could be happy with Trevor!
"Let me teach you a neat trick!"
Alicia once again grabbed her hand and stood up before she leaned in to Victoria's ear and whispered a few words.
Victoria's face was flushed in an instant. She extended her hand and shoved Alicia aside. "Alicia! You're really... bawdy!"
Shameless! What kind of indecent tricks did Alicia teach her? How dare she ask her to do such a thing!
"What's the matter? Don't tell me you both have never been together?"
Noticing that a smile that appeared on her face, Alicia then raised her hand and tidied up Victoria's wedding dress and her hair. "That's more like it! Today is your special day after all, you should stay happy and beautiful the entire time! Just follow my advice and nothing will go wrong!"
This way, she wouldn't regret a single thing! Although Alicia had also worn a wedding dress before, her previous wedding was simply too puffy! "Alright, alright, you can stop it already. Sheesh, you're so annoying!"
The two of them began to frolic with each other right as Alicia gagged her mouth. At that instant, Caroline had walked into the dressing room. She was instantly taken aback at the sight of the both of them.
"Woah, the both of you are absolutely stunning! What are you girls talking about? You both seem very happy."This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Victoria immediately sat down, and her cheeks were still flushed. Right then, Alicia got up and shook her head while she said, "It's our little secret! I'll share it with you when you are older!"
As she spoke, Alicia then pulled Caroline over to her and retouched her lipstick. Realizing that she was gazing at the door's direction now and then, Victoria curiously asked,
"Caroline, are you expecting someone?"
She had been running up and down dutifully throughout the entire day! Most importantly, she simply couldn't sit still since the moment she came back! Was she waiting for a special guest of hers today?
Continuously shaking her head, Caroline was slightly anxious, and her face was flushed with embarrassment. "No! No! Absolutely not!"
As their eyes met, Alicia and Victoria couldn't help but chuckled at the same time. Nevertheless, they chose not to pursue the matter any further.
At that moment, Alicia and Caroline promptly left the dressing room as soon as Veronica walked in.
Right then, Victoria was talking to her mother in the dressing room. The both of them had choked up despite having just a normal conversation. Noticing that tears had welled up in her daughter's eyes, Veronica quickly held her tongue.
"What on earth am I blabbering about! Today is your big day, so I should be proud of you! Don't forget, you're still my precious daughter even if you're married!"
"Rhea, with everything said and done, never forget that the role of a wife and daughter-in-law are quite different. Once you're a part of his family, you can never let your emotions get the better of you! When you're in trouble, you should always be tolerant and calm. It's a blessing to occasionally suffer some small losses. You need to respect the elders and be filial to your parents-in-law. Do you understand me?"
"Besides that, you should be considerate and attentive towards your husband as well. During the night..."
Veronica's preachings were flung at Victoria one after the other and it made Victoria dizzy. In an instant, she stood up and waved her hand while she said, "Mom, mom, I know it! You should go and greet the guests with dad! He'll definitely be anxious without you by his side!"
As soon as she said that, Victoria quickly pushed her mother out of the room. Shortly, she dragged her long wedding dress and ran back inside. While rubbing her blushed cheeks, she thought,
What was going on with mom and Alicia? It was not even in the evening yet and they were already worried for her. One told her to treat him nicely, while the other told me to please him in bed. Couldn't they just let her live her own life?
A sudden knock came to the door right as Victoria's face was still red. It was then she realized that she had locked the door unintentionally. Thinking that Alicia had come back, she stood up and trotted to the door.
"Why did you..."
As soon as she looked up, she suddenly saw Trevor in front of her. At that moment, Victoria was stunned. Their eyes met and her alluring face came into his sight without a single warning. Along with

shiver travelling down his spine. It made him feel numb and limp.
"Why are you here?"
Victoria suddenly came to her senses. She couldn't help but felt a little shy as she recalled Alicia and Veronica's teases.
"Who else would it be apart from me?"
Trevor squeezed his way in, and his eyes swept around the room. Who could have made her look so shy and bashful? All of a sudden, the thought of a gentle figure flashed across his mind.
"It couldn't be..."
Victoria gradually lowered her head
as she was more embarrassed than before! No matter what, she couldn't tell Trevor about what her mother and Alicia's teased her about earlier! Her face was burning as bright as flame. At that moment, Victoria really wanted to hide herself from him. Content belongs to
However, her reaction in Trevor's eyes was interpreted differently.
Out of the blue, he extended his arm and hooked it around Victoria's waist. "Why did you lock the door?"
Was he having some kind of twisted thoughts about her again?
"Huh? Earlier... it was unintentional!" Flustered by his stare, Victoria suddenly felt like a cat on hot bricks. All of a sudden, she immediately shoved him away as she was rattled by his presence.
"Well, you should go and greet the guests! Didn't you say it's not good for us to meet before the wedding?" Victoria said.
"Are you chasing me away?" He replied.
Trevor tightened his arm around Victoria's waist and lowered his body a little. At that moment, he looked at her with his burning gaze.
"It's not that! It's just that Alicia and the makeup artist should be coming around now. If they see us..." She would be very embarrassed!
Gently pinching her chin, Trevor subconsciously lowered his head as his eyes averted to her red lips. As he was about to press her lips against hers, Victoria immediately extended her hand to push him away.
"Hey, stop messing around! My makeup will be ruined!"
Victoria gradually withdrew her hand as soon as Trevor stopped what he was doing. Just when she thought he had calmed down, Trevor suddenly pulled her towards him with great force. Behind the door, he leaned in and kissed her deeply.
Even though his heart was thumping
wildly, he still tried his best to control his urge. He deliberately restrained her body just to have a small taste of her. Soon after, Trevor raised his hand to wipe away the lipstick from the corner of her lips while he gently rubbed the tip of her nose as well.
"I don't mind all these unnecessary and overelaborated formalities. Just make sure that you don't make any mistakes!"
"I know! What kind of mistakes could I possibly make? Didn't I tell you not to mess around earlier? Look at my hair, it's a total mess now!" While tidying up, Victoria muttered discontentedly before she hurriedly pushed him away.
"It's all your fault that I had to redo my hair! Hurry up and leave, they should be coming back soon! It would be highly inappropriate for the others to see us together like this!"
What an embarrassment! Why did he also become a nuisance? Victoria thought.
At that moment, a familiar ringtone suddenly rang. As Trevor took out his cell phone, the name "Selena" had popped up on his screen...
