Departure with a Belly (Alaric and Victoria)

Chapter 575

Chapter 575 Bathe With You

Sasha could tell that Victoria was shy. Thus, she pulled her leg and asked, “Why are you still embarrassed?”

Victoria smiled without saying a single word until Alaric wrapped his arm around her and said, “She just gets shy pretty easily.” In response, Victoria coquettishly pushed Alaric aside.

Soon, Sasha took the couple to Victoria’s old room and said, “I believe you guys must be tired after a long flight. Take some good rest, and I shall leave you guys to it.” She left after finishing her words,

Meanwhile, when Victoria turned around, she saw the door already opened by Alaric. Since Victoria hadn’t lived there for quite a while, the room was rather simple, with barely any of her belongings in sight. Even the vase and some other decoration items were ones added by Sasha and Tony.

In the meantime, the wardrobe was full of Victoria’s clothes, but they were all new, including the pajamas. However, since there were not many items in the wardrobe, Victoria had Alaric put the clothes aside and hung

their usual outfit instead.

Alaric could tell what Victoria was trying to do after seeing her hang a few clothes in it. “Let me do it.” He walked up to her.

“No need for that.” Victoria turned Alaric down, thinking she could handle what she was doing.

Nevertheless, Alaric took the hanger from Victoria’s hand the next second and firmly said, “Let me do it while you take a shower.”

Victoria stared at the hanger in Alaric’s hands and asked, “Are you sure you know how to do it?”

As soon as Victoria finished her words, Alaric poked her forehead with his fingertip. “Come on, this is just as easy as a piece of cake. Now, go and take a shower. Didn’t you say your shoulders were sore? Don’t forget to

apply the hot water pack on it.”

Victoria nearly forgot about that matter until Alaric mentioned it. “Alright, take care of this then. I’m going to

get a shower now.” She nodded.

Victoria then picked up a set of pajamas and entered the bathroom. Before entering the bathroom, she peeked at Alaric to make sure he was doing what he was supposed to. After a warm shower, Victoria’s shoulder strain was relieved due to her uncomfortable sleep during the long flight. Nonetheless, even after her shower was

done, she still couldn’t have enough of a comfortable bath. Thus, she put on the bathrobe and started filling

the bathtub with hot water.

Soon, Victoria opened the wardrobe and took a bath ball from it, whereupon she threw it into the warm water. As soon as the bath ball began to dissolve, a faint fragrance, which was also Victoria’s favorite, wafted through the air just when the water changed in color. Then, Victoria happily took off her bathrobe and soaked herself in the bathtub. When the warm water surrounded her body, she couldn’t help but exclaim in satisfaction for the first time after getting off the plane.

“The best thing ever,” Victoria said to herself, but soon, she quickly regretted not taking her mobile or her tablet along with her. After all, she reckoned watching a movie while having a hot bathtub was a comfortable thing to do during the cold winter. Knowing her bath would take quite a while, Victoria

deemed she should get her devices, but as she was too lazy to move, she decided to stay in the bathtub for a little longer before leaving the water. Therefore, she closed her eyes, but after only maintaining that posture for ten seconds, she somehow called out Alaric’s name.

Alaric came closer when he heard his name. “What’s wrong?” His deep voice was heard coming from outside the bathroom.

Although Victoria couldn’t help but feel embarrassed by that man’s response, she still wanted to enjoy her private moment in the bathtub. “Could you please bring me my tab?”

“The tab?”

Alaric was surprised when she heard Victoria’s response, as if he didn’t expect her to ask him for her tab. Deep down, he was initially thinking she might have forgotten her clothes or something, only to be stunned when he found out that she was asking for her tab instead. Thinking he had misheard Victoria’s words, Alaric went silent for a while and got closer to ask, “What did you just say?”

Victoria, who was trying to defuse the awkward situation, felt even more embarrassed when she heard Alaric’s question. Helpless, she had no choice but to say, “I want my tab because I want to watch a movie.”

Alaric was speechless by Victoria’s reply, but when she responded with silence, he waited for a few moments and asked again. “You watch a movie during your bath?”

“I’m soaked in the bathtub now, so just get me my tab, would you?” Victoria asked in embarrassment, but right after she said she was soaked in the bathtub, a brief silence ensued until she heard someone opening the

bathroom door.

When Victoria heard that noise, she got so frightened that she subconsciously submerged her body in the water in the bathtub to keep herself from being spotted by Alaric. As expected, Alaric’s silhouette emerged behind the door the moment she soaked herself in the water. “What are you doing?“!

Although both of them had shared intimate moments, Victoria was still not used to being watched by Alaric when she was in a shower. Upon entering the bathroom, Alaric saw Victoria lying in the bathtub, but when Victoria saw him, she immediately submerged herself, including her shoulders, in the water, leaving only her head on the surface. Due to the buoyancy in the water, she had to keep herself submerged below the water surface by clamping her palms onto the edge of the bathtub, but because they were wet, it wasn’t easy for her to remain submerged. Therefore, she appeared to be struggling, with her face occasionally emerging beyond

the surface.

In the meantime, Alaric felt helpless for Victoria when it looked like she was about to drink the water in her bathtub by accident. Thus, he walked up to her and soaked his hands beneath the water to carry Victoria in his

arms.

Being in the water, Victoria had no time to react to Alaric’s unexpected advance. Furthermore, due to her inferior physical strength, she could only watch herself being pulled out of the water and being carried in the arms by Alaric. I soaked myself in the water because I didn’t want him to see me naked, but now… he is seeing everything. Worse, he’s even touching my body now!

“What are you doing?!” Victoria angrily questioned Alaric, covering her bosom with both of her hands and rendering Alaric helpless.

“Seriously? It’s not like I haven’t seen you in your birthday suit before.”

While Victoria was speechless, Alaric added, “Furthermore, aren’t you afraid of accidentally drinking the water from the tub?”

“I have absolutely nothing to worry about drinking the water from my own bathtub. Now, would you please fetch me my tab?” Victoria frowned in an annoyed manner.

Instead of laying his wandering eyes on Victoria’s body like he usually would, Alaric surprisingly only watched her face. “Why? Why would you want to use your tab during your bath?”

“I need it to kill boredom of course. What else could I do in the meantime, otherwise?”

“Boredom?” Alaric squinted and asked, “Are you bored?”

Victoria became wary when she heard Alaric’s question, thinking he was trying to imply something. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Before Victoria could figure out what Alaric was thinking, she saw the man smiling and asking, “Are you bored because you’re alone?” He took off his suit vest that was already drenched and began to unbutton his shirt. “Let me keep you company then.”
