With that, Alaric walked up the hospital stairs with heavy and steddy
footsteps.
Claudia’s friends, who had listened to her and were coming downstairs to
look for Peter, stopped in their tracks when they saw Alaric had returned.
“Mr. Cadogan, C-Claudia-
However, before they could finish speaking, Alaric didn’t even spare them
a glance as he walked past them.
At that moment, he was in the worst of moods because of his argument
with Victoria, and he had a foul expression on his face.
The few women could clearly feel the chill emanating from him. They were
frozen on the spot, and none of them dared to step forward to stop him or
say anything.

However, Alaric seemed to have noticed something. He paused in his
tracks and turned to look at one of the women.
“You, why are you still here?”
Elaine was standing with the others, but she suddenly felt a cold gaze
falling upon her. She looked up to meet Alaric’s fierce gaze, and she was
so terrified that she felt her scalp turning numb. She didn’t know how to
explain herself.
“Al!”
Right at that moment, Claudia’s voice rang out nearby.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice to see Claudia running
bare-footed over to them with a panicked expression. Even though she
was quite far away, the blood seeping into the gauze on her forehead was
a startling contrast to her pale face.

“Claudia, why are you here? The doctor said you shouldn’t move around.”
Claudia’s friends ran up to her when they saw her, but only Elaine stood
right where she was as if her feet were rooted to the ground.
Alaric’s gaze was cold, and it only warmed up slightly when he saw
Claudia running up to him with traces of blood on her forehead.
“Why did you get out of bed?”
Claudia glanced at Elaine, giving her a look, and sounded a little flustered
as she said, “They seemed to have gotten into a conflict with Mr. Levane
just now. I heard that Mr. Levane left angrily, so I wanted to come down to
have a look and apologize to him on everyone’s behalf.”
Meanwhile, when Elaine received Claudia’s look, she hastily fled.
After Elaine left, Claudia smiled bitterly and said, “I’m so sorry, Al. You left
your assistant with me to help out, but my friends treated him like that. It’s

my fault.”
Alaric looked quietly at her, not saying anything.
He had always been a cold person, so when he was looking at someone
without saying a word, it would make that person feel like they were
trapped in ice.
This time was no exception. After Claudia apologized and explained
everything, Alaric simply looked at her silently.
His gaze seemed to pierce through her soul. It was as if he knew she was
faking it.
How can that be? Could it be that Victoria had told him something?
When Claudia thought of that, transparent tears formed in her eyes. As
her long, curly eyelashes quivered, the tears rolled down her cheeks as
she lightly held onto the hem of Alaric’s shirt, saying pitifully, “Al, are you

staying quiet because you’re mad at me? You were disappointed in me
because I didn’t stop Elaine in time back in the private room, right? But Al, it
wasn’t that I didn’t want to stop her; I just didn’t know that Elaine would say
those things. I’m really sorry, so please don’t be mad at me, okay?”
Out of the corner of his eye, Alaric glanced at her fingers, which were
holding onto him. Then, he looked at her pitiful sobbing figure.
His heart should be aching for her when he saw her crying like that, but for
some reason, another face appeared in his mind.
The face was completely different from that of the person standing in.
front of him. The countenance was exquisite and well-defined, especially
those cold eyes.
When she wanted to cry, her tears would well up in her eyes, but never
once did they fall. In the end, those eyes would turn red from holding back

tears from him.

Alaric was suddenly in a daze.
He still remembered her wailing in front of him when they were young, her
face covered in tears and snot. She even held lightly onto the hem of his
shirt, like what Claudia was doing right now, looking pitifully at him as she
sniffled, her eyes red.
When did it start?
Since when had she stopped crying in front of him and hid all her tears?
Alaric finally understood why he felt so empty inside. It was because a gap
had formed between Victoria and him now.
She no longer treated him as someone she was close to. Someone she
could freely share her emotions with.
“Al… Are you mad at me?”

Chapter 95 What’s
Claudia’s soft voice pulled him out of his thoughts.
Alaric returned to his senses. When he saw the teary-eyed Claudia before
him, he pursed his lips and asked, “What was going on tonight?”
When Claudia heard that, she was stunned.
“What?”
Alaric moved his gaze upward and asked curtly, “What is going on with
your injury?”
My injury?
Claudia was a little shocked. Why would Alaric suddenly ask me that?
Didn’t my friends tell him that Victoria had pushed me?
She realized that she couldn’t quite grasp Alaric’s thoughts at the
moment.

However, he seemed to be in a worse mood after he came back, and
Claudia had to keep up her nice impression, so she could only say
tentatively, “Don’t blame Victoria for what happened tonight.”
“Hmm?”

“Even though it might leave scars, I have no choice but to accept it. If only I
had maintained my balance, I wouldn’t have tripped.”
Alaric lowered his gaze at her, a dark look shrouding his eyes.
For some reason, Claudia felt terrified when he stared at her like that. “Al?”
“So, you’re trying to say that she pushed you?”
Claudia fell silent.
Perhaps because she didn’t expect Alaric to get to the bottom of this, she
didn’t know how to respond to his question.

From the side, Claudia’s friend walked up and replied in her stead, “Mr.
Cadogan, Victoria was the one who pushed her. Otherwise, Claudia
wouldn’t be hurt so badly.”
When Alaric heard that, he narrowed his eyes and looked dangerously at
the person.
“Did you see it?”
The woman was instantly stunned when his cold gaze fell upon her. “I—”
Alaric said mockingly, “Did you see it with your own eyes?”
The woman briefly glanced at Claudia and didn’t dare speak another
word.
Things were in such a mess back then, so no one saw it with their own
eyes. She was merely taking Claudia’s side.

With Alaric behaving like that, no one dared speak up again.
Even Claudia was stunned. She thought Alaric would take her side on this,
but she didn’t expect him to be so serious about it.
Is he suspecting me? Or does he simply not want Victoria to be wrongly
accused?
At that thought, Claudia gulped and bit her lower lip as she said slowly, “AI,
don’t blame Victoria for this. To be honest, I was the one to blame. I
should’ve been more careful and watched my footing.”
When Alaric heard that, he finally looked back at her. He pursed his lips
before humming in acknowledgment.
“Since you know you weren’t being careful, just watch out next time.”
