A diary entry dated September 29, 2016, states that Victoria fell hard for Adam, as he was an exemplary boyfriend. He brought her flowers each time he saw her and took her on extravagant dates, like buying her tickets to the hit Broadway musical Hamilton. On the night of the show, Adam picked Victoria up at her apartment and gifted her a beautiful diamond necklace with a heart pendant. She was so overwhelmed with gratitude that they nearly missed the show to be intimate. They attended the production, and afterward, Adam asked Victoria to spend the night at his apartment, which was farther from the emergency room where she worked. She stated that she couldn’t, as she had work in the morning. Adam then asked her to move in with him. Even though they’d only been dating for three months, Victoria happily agreed. As they walked home, a man accidentally bumped into Victoria. Adam freaked out, nearly becoming violent as he accused the man of attempting to grope Victoria. Victoria was afraid but glad that Adam was there to protect her, even though he blamed her short skirt for the interaction.
