“I hope so!” Although she may not need to worry too much, she still shouldn't let her guard down.
The Lazers used to be influential, and today she had Jackson's help and he had even threatened Cassia and Suelen.
They might be quiet for a while, but there was no guarantee that they would stay that way forever, and it would be better if Victoria just kept an eye out, though.Soon, the porshe arrived at her aunt's apartment, and Victoria got off, then bent down to wave goodbye to Noemia before going upstairs.
When she opened the apartment door, her aunt was waiting for her in the living room, and when she saw her coming home safely, she almost screamed.“Victoria, are you all right?”
“Auntie, I'm fine!” Victoria said as she took off her shoes.Just then, her two precious children came running because they hadn't gone to bed, and hugged her thighs and started calling her name.

Marrying someone from the Carson family? Was she qualified? Ciara's jealousy and anger exploded inside, and there was no way she could allow that to happen. Definitely not in this life, and now that Victoria had hurt her mother, Ciara couldn't let things happen. She had always been very close to her mother, and Ciara almost spat fire from her eyes. She reached out to hug her mother. “Mom, don't cry. How could she hurt you? I won't let her get away easily.”“I know. But now that she has Jackson as her sponsor, how can we deal with her?” Suelen asked.If she wasn't close to Jackson, they could easily silence her. But now with Jackson's involvement, it wouldn't be easy to even get close to her.“Don't worry. We can think of something together!” Ciara patted her mother on the back and comforted her. “Mom, it's okay. It's not possible for her to marry Jackson, and I'm sure he's just playing with her feelings. When he gets tired of Victoria, he'll leave her eventually.”Ciara knew the
It wasn't long before the moving company's truck arrived at Valentina's apartment, and both she and her aunt asked the movers to take their luggage and everything else downstairs. The whole process took about half an hour, before everything else was put into the van. Suddenly, Valentina got emotional, as she had spent almost her entire life living in that apartment, and now, she was moving away, and it made her feel a little strange. Victoria could tell that her aunt was feeling a bit emotional, but they wouldn't live a peaceful life if they didn't move, so she just had to comfort her aunt, since she was entirely to blame for everything.“Auntie, don't feel sad, our new life will start at Noemia's!” “I know.” Valentina sighed. Valentina sighed. “I'm not sad, but I just can't bear to leave this place I've lived in for so many years.“When I earn enough money in the future, I'll buy a house that belongs to us, I promise!that belongs to us, I promise!” Victoria continued to comfort
In an expensive suite of one of São Paulo's most luxurious hotels, a slender figure was sprawled on the lavish bed. The man standing beside the bed brushed aside the young woman’s soft, blonde hair, revealing a face with unique features. Her rosy lips appeared dry. “It’s so dry here!” she exclaimed. “I need water!” The man beside the bed scoffed disdainfully, picked up his phone, and walked out to make a call. “Are you coming soon? She’s in room 268, and the effects of the drug are starting to show. But remember, take some spicy photos for me when you're done.” “Don’t worry, I’m almost there!” The suite door closed, and the person on the phone hadn’t noticed that the girl on the bed was watching him. Victoria propped up her weakened body as she got out of bed. A surge of unfamiliar heat burned through her body, and with the little strength she had left, she staggered out into the hotel corridor, trembling. She knew her half-sister, Ciara, was behind this, and she could
At dawn, the woman woke up with a splitting headache and aches all over her body. Glancing around, she realized she was in an expensive suite, clearly in a five-star hotel in the capital—a luxurious room. Victoria forced her eyes open and, mustering all the strength left in her body, pushed herself to sit up. The scene before her began to piece together the events of the previous night.Her red dress from the evening was torn, exposing soft, delicate skin as white as snow. Her long blonde hair fell lightly over her shoulders, further highlighting her pale, flawless complexion. The massive bed had its sheets in disarray, and scattered across it and the floor were not only her clothes but also men’s clothing. Victoria trembled in shock and turned to look at the other side of the bed. There lay Jackson Carson—the man she had always been infatuated with. He was the most sought-after bachelor in the capital, not only for his status as the heir to a $7 billion fortune but also for his
Victória painfully stepped out of the taxi and dragged her weak, exhausted legs toward the living room. She still wanted to speak with her father. She had barely reached the entrance when she heard cheerful laughter coming from inside. “Bruno, are you sure you can give me this red diamond ring? I’m not your fiancée. If Victória finds out, she’ll be furious!” Both Victória’s grandfather and Bruno’s grandfather had been friends since their youth. As a result, the two families had always been close, and a marriage between the two had been arranged since childhood. Over the years, as they grew up, Bruno adored the idea of having Victória as his fiancée. She was beautiful, and he had to woo her extensively until she finally gave in to the idea. However, at the moment she stepped through the front door, Victória saw Ciara clutching Bruno’s arm tightly, pouting. “Bruno, do you think I look pretty wearing this?” Victória walked straight into the living room without even taking o
Two Years Later...Much had changed in these two years. Victória was living with her aunt and still searching for a job to start over.Every day, she sent out résumés, but when she saw the time today, it was time to feed the kids.Time, even if brief, had been kind to Victória. The helplessness and fragility she once felt had been replaced by an enormous willpower to make things happen. This growth only amplified her beauty.Since being cast out of her home, she sought refuge with her mother’s family—specifically her aunt Valentina, the only remaining member of the Burdeos family.A month after the ordeal, Victória discovered she was pregnant. Her first thought was to terminate the pregnancy, but after seeing two tiny shapes on the ultrasound, something inside her shifted.She completed her education and, since becoming a mother, dedicated herself to giving her children the best life possible.Victória entered the kitchen unhurriedly and began preparing breakfast. The children and her
"I clearly remember saying that day that I never wanted to see you again." Jackson's voice was hoarse and rough with anger.Victória also wanted to stay far away from him, but she had no choice.She had applied for dozens of jobs over the past six months, and this was the only company that had called her back.She needed to support her children.Besides, he wasn’t the only victim of that night. She had accepted the consequences and never sought him out afterward.But the company was huge, and she simply had to try her best to avoid the man and stay out of his way in the future.When Jackson saw Victória lost in thought, he assumed it was intentional."This is my second warning. Stay away from me. I won’t say it again, understood?"Victória nodded. She understood perfectly.But he seemed convinced that she had done it on purpose, that she had planned to be there. Yet her hopes of winning his love had been destroyed long ago, and all she wanted now was a job to support her children."I
Victoria had just left Jake's office and was heading to her desk. The company's senior designer, a young woman two years older than her, was helping her settle into her new job. Her name was Lisa, and unlike Victoria, who was slim like a model, Lisa was plump. When Lisa saw how beautiful Victoria was, a spark of jealousy ignited in her heart.“This woman must be a flirt; I’m sure of it!”Lisa thought, as she had always harbored feelings for Jayric. Seeing him admire this new woman made her nervous.To vent her anger and jealousy, Lisa shoved a pile of drafts into Victoria’s arms and instructed her to review and organize the projects by the next morning. Then, without another word, she turned and went back to her desk.Victoria stared at the tall stack of papers in her arms, nearly reaching the top of her head. It was a lot of drafts. She wouldn’t be able to go home that night.And her children? They needed milk!Victoria could feel her breasts becoming heavy at the thought of her c

Victoria didn't want to bring up the subject, but Jackson had helped her a lot, and she felt obliged to at least let him know why.“Actually, there were some problems with the inheritance my mother left me, and today, I came especially to talk about it, but they tricked me into mentioning it just so I'd come here. “ She bit her lips softly before speaking.“And what was the value of the inheritance she had left?”“Not much.” She replied, after all, for Jackson who had a net worth of tens of billions to his name, his mother's inheritance of two hundred thousand would be like dust to him. But with that money, she could provide a better life for Enzo and Lara. “It's about two hundred thousand, and that amount was left by my grandfather to my mother when he was still alive.”John Lazer always treated her mother kindly, and he knew that her father was having an extramarital affair, so he left th
“If anything happens to your aunt, I'll let the people who hurt her suffer a hundred times more than what they put her through!” Jackson gave his words to Victoria in a serious tone.The commanding tone and general aura coming from Jackson sent shivers down the spines of Cassia, Suelen and Ricardo, and made them very uneasy, as Jackson was known for his reputation for being ruthless.“Mr. Carson, it's all a misunderstanding. We're not the kind of people who use brutal force to solve problems!” Cassia gave Jackson a forced smile, suppressing her anger and fear towards him.“Cassia, if that's the case, that would be great. Victoria is my wife and I hope she doesn't get hurt or compromised in any way!” Jackson looked at them coldly.His tone was strong and intimidating when he proclaimed his relationship with Victoria officially in the Lazers, and it made Victoria feel a little awkward and blush.Even No
After receiving her orders, the bodyguards immediately began to search, and upon realizing the situation, Cassia began to panic.“Mr. Carson, it's illegal for you to search someone else's house!”“So hiding my wife isn't illegal, Mrs. Lazer?” Jackson looked at her and sneered as he said it.Cassia was speechless the moment he said it, as her expression immediately turned pale.She then gave the man sitting on the sofa a sharp look as she wondered what to do.The whole Lazer family would undoubtedly be ruined if he actually found her.However, just as Cassia was wondering what to do, Jackson noticed the photo on the table, picked it up to take a look, and Ciara answered immediately before he could ask anything.“Mr. Carson, my sister is getting married soon and her husband is the man in the picture, so it's impossible for you and my sister...”A loud slap could be heard the instant she
As soon as Jackson spoke, Noemia nodded, but the truth was that she didn't want Jackson involved in this, because it meant that Victoria would have to owe her a favor again. What would happen if he found out the truth about Victoria's children then? Well, the results of the first paternity test had been faked.However, this had already made him want to take the test a second time, and things were different at the moment, because she didn't want anything to happen to Victoria. Besides, she had no idea what her cousin was doing at the moment, since she hadn't heard from him since. So the only person she could trust was Jackson. So the pair entered the Lazer family mansion together.The Lazers were having dinner at the moment and there was no one present in the living room, and when the maid who was cleaning the room saw Jackson after they entered, she took a step back. “Who are you? This is private property, and no random person is allowed in!” She immediately tried to kick them out.
After the quick conversation with Victoria's aunt, Jackson immediately told his assistant to investigate the situation as soon as he left her apartment.After the phone call ended, Jackson remembered that Victoria's only best friend was Noemia, and Maison told him that Noemia was the one who had picked her up from work earlier. He immediately found Noemia's number and called her, and Noemia only answered the call after a few long seconds.“Did Victoria leave with you, Noemia?” Jackson asked in a deep voice.“No!” Noemia denied immediately, as she didn't want Jackson to get involved in this.“Noemia, Victoria is missing, right?” Jackson continued as he walked, and his voice got deeper, which made Noemia a little afraid of him. “Do you want me to look at the Carson Group's surveillance footage to find out who picked her up from work?” Noemia immediately remained silent as she bit her lip.“Fine, I'll tell you the truth!” It seemed she couldn't hide it from Jackson, so she admitted it.
The police arrived in less than five minutes after Noemia contacted them, and when she explained everything, Cassia immediately exploded in a fit of rage and allowed the officers to search her room.However, as the officers were not familiar with the layout of the mansion, they had no idea where the basement was after searching the area. As they had no idea where the basement was, they couldn't search it. The policemen soon left after they failed to find Victória with their rough sweep of the area.Noemia was forced to leave and couldn't do anything with these people, all she could do was get back into the car in a panicked and frustrated rage. She then decided to calm down and think as she got into her car, and decided to call her cousin, because as he knew a lot of people, he would know what to do.Noemia frantically called Harvey after that, and he asked her to go home for now and leave the situation to him when the call was over.However, Noemia didn't want to leave. She had th
