Chapter 23 Will You⦠Believe Me?
dancer too?
Knock knock. Someone knocked on the door.
Victoria wiped off the tears that had been flowing down her cheeks without her notice. Then, she
endured the pain as she stood back up to answer the door. âYes? Do you need anything?â
The person standing at the door was Janice Mooney, the customer who stood up for her just now.
When Victoria realized that Janice was staring at her legs, she quickly rolled down her pants with her
left hand while using her right hand to hold her torn shirt in place. She looked like a mess at this
moment.
âDid they bully you?â Janice had knocked on the door when she heard the sound of weeping coming
from the workroom. And when she saw the terrible bruises on Victoriaâs legs, she was shocked and
angry. âIâm a lawyer. You can tell me if youâre facing any trouble. Iâll help you!â
âThank you, but that wonât be necessary.â Victoria was abandoned by her family and friends, yet a
stranger whom she had never met before was showing concern for her. She could not find any words
to describe the mixed feelings that she currently felt.
âAre you afraid that the legal fees will be too expensive?â Janice patted her chest and said, âDonât
worry! I wonât take your money! If I donât win this case, I can ask my mentor to help you with it. Iâll pay
the legal fees!â
Tm really fine. Thank you,â Victoria said.
Janice frowned upon hearing that. Confusion and anger were evident on her baby face. âDo you have
something that you canât tell me? Are you afraid that this club will take revenge on you or-
âMiss, donât try to be a hero here. Karma will come back and bite you.â Daisy cut Janice off with a smirk
on her face as she linked arms with a man in his fifties and walked over to them gracefully. âIâd advise
you to stay away from Victoria. Sheâs a criminal after all.â
When the old man first saw Victoriaâs face, he had had some impure thoughts of her, but after hearing
thatâ¦
Likewise, Janice was stunned as well. This janitor looks so shy and gentle. How could she be a
criminal?
âYou donât believe me?â Daisy let go of the old man and walked over to Victoria. She then pushed
Victoria and bellowed, âTell her yourself!â
Since Victoria was young, she had hated people touching her, especially pushing her. However, she
had been forced to fix this quirk during her time in prison. âTwo years ago, I served in prisnovelxo.com
fast updateon for attempted murder.
âWhatâ¦â When Janice heard that, she felt shocked and awkward, and she did not know how to
describe her feelings at the moment. âIâ¦â
âThank you for your kindness. I still have a job to do, so Iâll be leaving now.â Victoria was already used
to the reaction that people would give her upon learning that she was a murderer. She turned around to
take the cleaning tools before leaving the workroom and shut the door behind her.
Meanwhile, Daisy linked arms with the old man again. The corners of her eyes were slightly raised, and
hints of satisfaction and jealousy could be seen in her eyes. âA pretty murderer is still a murderer, Mr.
Barlow. Stay away from her if you see her next time. Who knows if she will kill you for your money,â she
said loudly on purpose to make sure that Victoria, who was mopping the floor at the front, could hear
her.
