The truth is he didn't want to see her with his emotions in disarray. But after reading the information and seeing the photos, he had to verify what was in that folder. When did they meet? He had not invited her to any of their outings; so how did they become friends so quickly.

He knew that if he asked her over the phone he would not be able to tell if she was lying or not. Meeting her tonight gave him a chance to see if there was more to them that he had not seen or noticed.

Carson arrived at the bar at exactly eight. Victoria was already waiting for him.

”You must have been really bored at home that you're on time tonight.” He said with a grin and sat in the chair opposite her.

”What can I say? I missed you and couldn't wait.” She stuck her tongue out at him.

They had been friends for a while and even if Victoria had a spiteful trait, their friends had always been good.

They ordered food and drinks and while they waited he took the chance to asked her.

”Have you heard; Alex and his wife Zunnie got into an accident and now she's in a coma?”

”Yeah, I heard about it. What does that have to do with me?”

”Ah, did you not come back for Alex's heart. I know you also went to her workplace last year and what you did there. Don't lie tome Tori. Were you involved?”

”I'm glad she's in a coma. She humiliated me. She deserves what she got. But I know nothing about her accident. I know I'm vindictive at times, but I gave up on Alex when I heard he got married. And above that, there is someone else that I like. I gave up on him to be with that person.”

”So, you're saying you have really moved on... I find that highly surprising.” Carson replied, amused that she had found a new lover.

”Yes, we recently started dating. Although he's a few years older, what can I say? He brings out the best in me.” She grinned at Carson like a foolish high school girl in love.

Carson had been stunned into silence by her revelation. He was happy she was not involved. He could see that she must be in love with the person she's talking about.

He did not ask her any more questions relating to the accident. They drank and ate until they were full.

As he watched her car drive off into the night, he could tell that she had changed. Who would have guessed that Christopher Rougé was such a heartthrob? Carson was happy for her. He felt better after meeting with her and deep in his heart, he wished her the uttermost happiness.

However, he did get an answer to one of the many questions flooding his mind. How did Tami Rougé and Victoria come to know each other?
