The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In novel Chapter 696

Chapter 696 No One’s Practicing with a Gun

Tessa’s voice trembled. “H–How are you going to fix it?”

Something about this didn’t feel right.

Sure enough, the next second–crack. Then came Tessa’s piercing scream.

“Ahhh-!”

It hurt. It hurt so bad. She didn’t even want the foot anymore.

A short distance away, all Silas and Lewis could see was Victor’s back. From their angle, it looked like he was leaning over Tessa.

Then they heard her scream.

Silas went quiet.

Lewis was stunned.

After a moment, Lewis said, “Looks like we really do need to start learning how to take care of a baby.”

Tessa’s face was twisted in pain.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Victor. “D–Don’t touch me anymore. I want a doctor.”

He was way too rough.

She couldn’t let him near her foot again. It hurt like hell.

“It’s done,” Victor said. “Why would you need a doctor?”

Tessa froze.

VOO IND WHES FRCUCH

Wait… done?

She cautiously rotated her ankle.

Hey… it really didn’t hurt anymore.

“1–It doesn’t hurt now.”

There was still some discomfort, but the stabbing pain from earlier was completely gone.

Victor gave a soft grunt, then added, “Beg me, and you won’t have to train anymore, alright?”

Even though Marie had taken Tessa with her for half a month, Victor still thought she was hopeless when it came to combat–clearly not cut out for it.

Forget it. She’d grown up in a safe, comfortable world.

Why force her into some dramatic transformation just for Ashen Pact’s sake?

Tessa looked up at him with wide, innocent eyes. “But Ashen Pact wants to skin me and my mom alive.”

Wasn’t that exactly what happened at Victor’s villa?

If they hadn’t been there, she would’ve been ripped apart by those hideous twins.

And speaking of those twins…

Just thinking about their faces made her sick to her stomach. She’d honestly never seen such repulsive people.

She still didn’t get it.

Genetically speaking, Dale and that mistress weren’t too bad. So how did their kids turn out so ugly?

She’d seen Dan too–and with those soft, dreamy eyes, the guy looked like he could charm anyone.

Victor raised a brow. “Ashen Pact is garbage.”

Tessa blinked.

Well, sure… in front of Mr. Abraham’s people, Ashen Pact really was nothing.

“So… you mean you’re gonna protect me now?”

She pouted slightly.

Victor suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms, smiling as he carried her toward the cabins.

He didn’t answer.

But the message was loud and clear.

He’d already stepped into Ashen Pact’s mess. There was no turning back

now.

Back inside…

Silas and Lewis were watching childcare videos on their phones when Victor walked in with Tessa.

Right as they entered, the phone speaker played. “Stop! Don’t put the diaper on like that–it’ll hurt the baby’s back.”

Victor went quiet.

Tessa went quiet.

What the hell were these two doing?

Diapers? Were they trying to get married and have kids or something?

Noticing them, Silas and Lewis quickly shut off their phones.

Silas stood up with a sheepish grin.

Lewis gave his best polite smile–but it looked more like that doting auntie expression.

Tessa had never seen either of them look like this before.

Victor’s face darkened. “What the hell are you doing?”

“Learning new skills!” Lewis replied. “Don’t worry, big bro. We’ll take care of your kid. We’ll make sure he learns how to use a gun from the moment he’s born-”

“Shut up!”

Victor’s temples were throbbing.
