You are no longer qualified 2.

Victoria Garcia fell silent, not speaking.

If it weren't for Arnold Johnson's sudden appearance, she might have thick-skinnedly begged him once more.

But who could guarantee such a thing?

"Whether I beg you or not is no longer important." Including him, it no longer mattered, as their relationship had long since moved past the initial stage. If they missed one opportunity, there would be no more chances.

Alexander Mitchell grabbed Victoria's hand, anxiously saying, "You have to believe me, the reason I'm doing this is that I care about you too much."

Victoria forcefully shook off his hand, coldly asking, "Alexander, do you think there's any point in saying this now?"

"Of course, if I don't say it, you'll keep misunderstanding me."

"Now that you've explained yourself, you can disappear from my sight." Victoria's voice carried no politeness, only indifference.

Alexander stiffened once again.

Quickly, he reacted and held Victoria tight. He loudly said, "Victoria, you must believe me, I'm just too afraid of losing you!"

Victoria struggled twice, but he held her even tighter.

In anger, Victoria raised her hand and fiercely slapped Alexander across the face.

This slap sounded particularly piercing in the quiet cemetery.

Alexander's eyes were filled with surprise.

Moving her lips, Victoria finally spoke, "You say that it's all for my sake, but if you really cared about me, you shouldn't have gambled with my mother's life from the very beginning."

"I didn't mean that, I just wanted your Aunt to stay in jail for a few more days before begging for my Uncle's help."

Alexander's explanation seemed weak and pale in light of the circumstances.

Back then, she liked simple Alexander just like that.

"You don't understand at all," Victoria didn't even want to explain further to him.

Alexander had no idea that his uncle never intended to save her mother. Otherwise, he wouldn't have accepted Clara Brown's large sum of money and hastily closed the case.

Alexander also didn't know that his mother threw out such a bait, just to make her son willing to gamble and lose, while also getting rid of a burden that could not help her son in his Official Career.

"Victoria, all I want is you," Alexander's words were sincere and heartfelt.

On the night Victoria begged him, only heaven knew how bittersweet it was for him. He eagerly awaited her second visit, willingly being manipulated by his mother. However, what came in the end was the news of Josephine Garcia's car accident and death.

When he heard the news, he frantically called and texted Victoria, blocking her at home and at school, but there was no response.

Finally, he thought of Josephine's grave, believing that Victoria, with her temperament, would definitely come.

So, these days, he persisted and eventually got the chance to see her.

He considered the changes in the situation, but he never expected them to be completely beyond his expectations.

"Alexander, let's end this on good terms. Please don't bother me again in the future." Although they never truly dated, they both once had feelings for each other.

"No..."

This word, Alexander roared.
