"You mean we'll get to kick some asses soon?" Silas cracked his knuckles, ready for action."Victoria, what are the benefits we'd get over there? How much do we earn per month? If we take on a mission, how much bonus do we get?" Money was Wendy's top concern.She needed to pay for her games and novels. She couldn't do without money."I heard their team leader, Sevyn Harper, is drop-dead gorgeous and still single. If he falls for me, the Harper family will be ours." Ruby Warner flicked her hair and winked."How much does a team leader earn? A lot?"…Eager to express their opinions, they ended up cutting Victoria off.Victoria countered, "Is this about the money? Someone's trying to steal Benjamin and take my place as his future wife. She's provoking me. She even hired men to kill me when we were in Danube City."Can you put up with someone doing this to me, the person who's been looking after every one of you all these years?""No!" everyone said in unison."Which fool is aft

Victoria was still fuming when they left Rosalia Estate.In the passenger seat, Tilly was full of smiles. "Don't be offended by a child's babbling. Why are you getting so worked up over what a three-year-old said?"Besides, don't you think it's cute and funny how children can always come up with such astonishing statements? You—"Victoria interrupted angrily, "No, I don't see what's funny about that!"She was there when the children were born.When Tilly was pregnant, she told Victoria that she couldn't look after her babies after they were born. But, she couldn't bring herself to abort the babies either, and she almost fell into depression.Victoria couldn't stand watching Tilly's depressed state. She asked Tilly to keep the babies.Ever since then, Victoria had been determined to take full responsibility for the children.She wished the children could live up to the standards and hopes she had for them. But, those kids were impossible!One fawned over men who matched her tas

After replying to Victoria, Tilly turned to Elyssa. She held her head high."This is my best friend, Victoria Jameson," she proudly introduced.Frowning, Elyssa sounded like a concerned parent telling off her child. "Tilly, don't blame me for saying this, but how can you mingle with a mistress who has an affair with someone else's boyfriend? She'll lead you astray."Tilly blew a fuse. "What mistress? Who are you calling a mistress? What do you mean?"Elyssa pointed at Victoria. She said gently, "I'm talking about her. Yvette and Mr. Harper are childhood sweethearts. Everyone knows about their relationship. They are one step away from choosing their wedding date."But, your friend here interfered with their relationship. She bought those indecent clothes and used improper ways to seduce … Am I wrong for calling her a mistress?"When it comes to marriage, we need our parents' consent. We must choose partners of equal social status. Someone should reflect on herself before she start

Carrie was dumbfounded. She was suddenly at a loss for what to do.Like a dog, she crawled toward Victoria as she sobbed.She begged, "Aunt Victoria, I made a mistake. I was blind and said things I shouldn't have said. I-I misunderstood you. I-I deserve to be punished!"As she spoke, she slapped herself several times. The slaps were loud and seemed to hurt. Soon, a red mark appeared on her face, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.Pointing at Yvette, Carrie proceeded to blame the former for everything. "I-I said those things because of Yvette. She said she was Uncle Benjamin's childhood sweetheart and that they liked each other, so I …"The manager felt deeply wronged. He regretted his actions, too. He imitated Carrie and dashed toward Victoria.Shoving Carrie aside, he dropped to his knees and slapped himself. "I didn't know any better! Mrs. Harper, I have a family to provide for. Y-You are the kindest. If I lose this job, my family and I will have to sleep on the s

Simon's voice was gentle as if he was coaxing someone, but his tone was unmistakably strong.There were no emotions in his eyes when he looked at Elyssa.Elyssa was unwilling. She muttered, "Simon.""You should apologize when you did something wrong," Simon said.Victoria had been demanding and unreasonable earlier, but Benjamin never said anything to teach her a lesson. He even backed her up and said it was the privilege of being the future Mrs. Benjamin Harper.Even if Victoria was the future Mrs. Benjamin Harper, Elyssa was still the apple of the Roberts family's eyes and the future Mrs. Simon Gene. Yet, not only did Simon not back her up, he was even asking her to apologize.Who the fuck was Victoria?She was a seductress and a country bumpkin. If Elyssa did apologize to the likes of her, wouldn't she have to continue yielding to her in the future? What would become of her pride?Was it just because Victoria was Tilly's best friend?Elyssa did not want to do it. She was
