Why was a man leaving Victoria's room at this hour of the night?That bitch was in a relationship with Benjamin! How dare she cheat on him?Colette did not recognize Benjamin. She quickly snapped a few photos with her phone.She would let Benjamin know that Victoria was a slut who could not stand being alone.Benjamin was a clean freak. He had a problem with his body, and Victoria had cheated on him. He surely would not let Victoria off the hook so easily.Colette's fingers shook with excitement as she stood in the dark.Victoria would be done for.Colette began imagining Victoria's downfall. Victoria would kneel before her as she begged for mercy. Halfway through her fantasy, the man turned around.That man was … Benjamin.Colette's smile froze.Benjamin closed the door.The image of Victoria's white lacy bra appeared in his mind.He wondered what Victoria would look like wearing it.The moment that thought entered Benjamin's mind, he felt a fire igniting within him.He
Yves noticed Victoria and Benjamin looking at him, so he waved his hand excitedly. "Ben, Mrs. B, look here. Look here, everyone!"Smile. That's right, smile. Ben, widen your smile. Never mind. It looks too strained. Look at Mrs. B. Show me more emotions. That's right. That's it. Perfect!"Yves had changed his seat. He sat beside Jayce today.Jayce looked at Benjamin standing next to Victoria. Then, he looked at the excited Yves. He could not take it anymore. "Who are you calling Mrs. B? Have you had enough yet? There are so many people here. Although you're not embarrassed, Victoria might feel embarrassed."Yves looked at the fuming Jayce with no intention to back down. "She permitted me to call her Mrs. B. She's fine with it, so how is it your problem? You're just jealous of Ben. There's no use in being jealous. Mrs. B is loyal to Ben. Other than Ben, she won't spare anyone else a glance."Once Yves finished speaking, he made a face.Jayce was furious.At 11:00 pm last nigh
Everyone began discussing what they had just witnessed."Isn't that Jacob Sutton, the president of Kraken Property? He has a family. Why does that woman in his arms look so familiar?""Of course, she looks familiar. She just got down from the stage. She was one of Brighton's honors students. Ms. Sheehan had personally handed her the award.""Oh, my goodness! Brighton's honors student is a homewrecker? All those women must also be from Brighton, right? Why does such a school exist? It's disgusting!""Victoria was Zachary's fiancee. Not long after that, she was with Mr. Homer. And just now, she was flirting with that man on stage. Are they going to let such a flirtatious woman take over Brighton? Will they start giving lessons on being a seductress? Will they teach people to become homewreckers?""Fortuna will not collaborate with Brighton after this. Haha. I'm going to be rich!"A relaxed smile finally appeared on Colette's face when she saw the change of public opinion.Since th
Luna had just returned. She watched as Mary rushed up the stage like a madwoman.All the reporters followed Mary and headed up onto the stage. However, their cameras were aimed at Victoria.They looked like hungry predators zeroing in on their prey.Luna remembered running into a worried Yves. She laughed out loud in joy.She snapped a video of the situation and sent it to Sienna.Sienna would be happy when she saw it. She would be proud of her.Luna smiled as she returned to her seat.Benjamin turned to look at her.It was just a simple glance.Luna was a little nervous. She felt like he knew something.When she recalled Benjamin's relationship with Yves, her smile froze. She suddenly became anxious.Jayce noticed that something was wrong. He also turned around and looked at Luna's nervous expression. He had an ominous feeling. "Where have you been?""I was using the restroom. Why?"Jayce remained silent as he looked at her. He did not look like he believed her.Luna see
Victoria was stunned.Mary was an idiot.Victoria looked at Mary as if the latter were a fool.Even the reporters and the audience were stunned.When Mary had sworn that Victoria was out to get her, they imagined a long history of strife between the two women.Was that all?Someone even laughed out loud.The video of Victoria dancing had gone viral. Mary had been abroad so she did not see the video. However, most of the audience had watched the video multiple times.Mary was a good dancer, but if she were compared to Victoria, there was nothing to compare.In their opinion, Victoria had been giving others the chance to perform by choosing not to perform herself.Plus, Victoria was also talented with musical instruments and fencing.Mary could not even hold a candle to Victoria's talents. She could never live up to Victoria.They were on completely different levels. How could Victoria be jealous of her?What a ludicrous joke it was.Victoria cleared her throat and said s
One by one, Brighton's students rose to their feet.Everyone clapped with all their might as their eyes brimmed with tears.Just moments ago, they thought they would be scorned for being students of Brighton. They had hated Brighton with every fiber of their being.But now, they found hope in Victoria's words.Slowly, others stood with them.The thunderous applause was even louder hanthan the one Victoria received when she had won against Fortuna as Brighton's representative.Benjamin looked at the woman on stage.Dressed in Brighton's uniform, she stood tall. Her eyes shone with determination, and her smile was gentle and confident.Victoria was enthrallingly beautiful.She was more captivating than any other person Benjamin had ever seen.Every word she said was powerful.Even without an amplifier, her voice echoed across the stadium.How could such a woman exist?She was flawless.The more Benjamin got to know her, the more he fell for her. Jayce and Fortuna's repres
Soon, Yves brought Jayce and the rest of Fortuna's representatives backstage.Luna was also among them.When she saw Victoria, she scoffed and said sarcastically, "Vic, you're still very good at stirring up people's emotions. Did you think a few words could change your outcome? What a joke! No matter what you say, Fortuna will never agree to work with such a treacherous school like Brighton."It's no wonder you're willing to be the dean of such a school. You're also a homewrecker. You ruined other people's relationships. Even your own family doesn't want you. You are nothing compared to Ms. Campbell—""Shut up!"Jayce glared at Luna and shouted in anger, "Haven't you said enough? Who asked you to come here? Why did you follow me? No one would think you were mute if you stayed quiet."He walked closer to Luna and whispered, "If you continue to slander Victoria, I'll ruin you too.""Jayce!"Luna looked at Jayce with teary eyes. She was hurt and annoyed by his words.One of her f
Everyone from Fortuna left.Jayce looked at Victoria with teary eyes. "Vic, you're just the same as before. As long as you want something, you'll do anything to achieve it. No one can stop you."His gaze was full of hurt and grievance. "We've been friends for so long. I made no promises, and we even fought over this. But you know me well enough to know I'll agree with what you want, even if I'm unwilling."You know I'll agree to let Fortuna collaborate with Brighton. If you're adamant about not returning to Yrindale, I wouldn't force you to get onto the airplane either."Victoria sat down. "I'll always fight to get what I want. You have your opinions, and I have mine.""So, are we enemies now? Are you giving up on Fortuna for Brighton?" Jayce questioned. "Fortuna is the result of all your hard work. Don't you have any remorse?"If Fortuna is so unimportant to you that it can be sacrificed so easily, why did you try so hard to convince my father and the others to join Fortuna? If
