Semua Bab Wonder Wife: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Victoria was lucky to get a cab soon after leaving the Jameson Manor. By the time she got back to Zion Estate, it was almost 9:00 pm.She showered and changed into a comfortable set of clothes. Then, she poured herself a glass of red wine and sat down on a cushion in front of the full-length window.The night view in Danube City was beautiful. As it was New Year's Day, bright lights lit up the entire city. There were even people setting off fireworks. It was a lively sight. Victoria sipped on the wine and set her glass down. Then, she tapped the WhatsApp icon on her phone and sent a message to Benjamin."Happy New Year, Mr. Harper!" She even added several smiley emojis at the end of the message.After visiting the Jamesons' today, she realized the value of Benjamin Harper's name. She reminded herself to hold on to him tightly and never let go of him.And if she were to do that, how could she possibly forget to send him festive greetings? She needed to make him feel like she

When Victoria arrived at the college, Colette was waiting for her by the doors with Cindy by her side.Cindy wasn't particularly good-looking. She was tall, awkward, and inelegant. Compared to her, Colette was like a goddess.Colette was popular with everyone in college. Most students and parents stopped to greet her when they saw her.When Colette saw her, she excused herself from the crowd and went up to her. "Victoria, my sister!""Sister?" Victoria gave her a dry smile. "Do you really want me to air out our dirty laundry in front of the entire college?"Colette's smile froze.Cindy ran over to them. "Colette is just being gracious, Victoria. Don't be such an ungrateful … Oh my God, what is that on your back? What kind of bag is that? Are you a child? That's hilarious!" Cindy pointed at Victoria's backpack and laughed.Colette also noticed Victoria's bag. When she saw the cartoon printed on it, she said, "You have a pretty unique taste in bags. It suits you."Victoria knew

Beatrice's mind was blank. She said stiffly, "She … she's allergic to peanuts. We've been very careful with her food …" Then, she stopped her tears as her expression grew chilly. "Someone must have slipped something into her food on purpose. When I find out who it is, they will pay."Colette, who was hiding behind Ginny, shuddered in fright.Normally, Megan ate very little. Colette was concerned she wouldn't get the desired effect. Hence, she added plenty of powdered peanuts to her coffee.She wanted to put her out of commission so that she wouldn't be able to perform at the commencement ceremony. She wanted to steal her thunder. But she hadn't expected it to be so serious.If something happened to Megan, both the Jenkins and Homer families would investigate. It wouldn't take long for them to find her.This was all Victoria's fault. Why did she have to poke her nose into someone else's business?Colette bit her lip and hesitated for a moment before stepping up. "Megan drank som

Victoria took off her thick black jacket and tossed it to Colette. It landed on her face.Colette was disgusted and mortified as she ripped the jacket away, but her smile was kept intact.She couldn't show her anger. The ruder Victoria was, the more dignified she would look in contrast.Victoria would embarrass herself soon, and Benjamin would stop helping her. When that happened, she would have ample opportunity to shame her.With that thought in mind, Colette's anger subdued.Her smugness disappeared when she saw what Victoria was wearing.Underneath her jacket, she was wearing something that resembled a school uniform.Her skirt reached her knees, showing off her long and slender legs.Her white T-shirt left none of her curves to the imagination.Most importantly, her pale skin seemed to glow under the bright lights. She looked like she was born to be in the spotlight.Victoria was brought up in the countryside. She was supposed to be ugly!How could she look so beautif

"My goddess has arrived. I'm going to go talk to her before someone else does!" Yves said excitedly as he set his wine glass aside. He started toward Victoria.Simon glanced at Benjamin and grabbed Yves. "Are you dumb?"Yves was perplexed. "Why? I'm actually serious about looking for a wife this time. This is different …"Benjamin glanced at him. "Looking for a wife?""Yeah, my grandparents really want a great-grandchild, so I …" Even in his excitement, Yves felt something wrong as he glanced at Benjamin. "Benjamin, why are you looking at me like that? What did I do wrong today? You're acting very strange."Benjamin ignored him and lifted his champagne glass in Victoria's direction.Victoria nodded and smiled at him.Benjamin smiled. "Don't get too full of yourself. She was looking at me. She was smiling at me. And that kiss was also intended for me. She likes me, not you. She isn't interested in you at all."Simon couldn't help but laugh at Yves' incredulous expression.Yve
