Victoria pointed at Wendy and tried to give her a warning through her gaze.

Wendy begged for help. "Benjamin, seeing how I took a bullet for Victoria, please have mercy on me!"

Victoria wanted nothing more but to shut Wendy up.

She had been hinting at Wendy to not mention that matter. She never thought Wendy would expose her so soon.

Victoria didn't dare to look at Benjamin. However, she could feel his gaze on her. It made her shudder.

Yves added salt to her wounds. "Mrs. B, you were nearly shot?"

Victoria glared at Yves, hinting at him to shut up. She made an excuse to run away. "I'll go take a look at Jayce."

Benjamin gave Yves a look. Yves understood and followed Victoria with Wendy.

As for Benjamin, he turned and headed to the third floor.

Victoria walked up to Jayce.

Luna had wanted to kill Jayce, but Victoria's bullet had hit her first. So when Luna fired the gun, her aim was slightly off. She didn't hit any vital points.

Victoria tore off a piece of his shirt and band

    Wendy sulked at Victoria. "What about me?"Victoria pointed at Yves. "He'll make arrangements for you."Wendy pouted, looking like an abandoned puppy. She looked pitiable."I came all this way for you. I even took a bullet for you. You didn't bring me home, treat me to a meal, or give me some money. Now you're even choosing to abandon me."Our mentor was right. You value love more than friendship. Once you have a partner, you'll abandon your humanity. You are blinded by love."You were like that the last time, and you're still acting like that now. Why do you have so many enemies? If you aren't being targeted, then you are being held at gunpoint. You—"Victoria glanced at Benjamin. She clasped a hand over Wendy's mouth. She whispered a warning, "Do you want me to sew your mouth shut? If you don't know what to say, just shut up!"Wendy struggled to break free. She shook her head but quickly changed to nodding instead.Benjamin raised his eyebrow. His smile was meaningful and dan

    She would often play dead to avoid being shot at. Yves suddenly felt that he and Wendy lived in different worlds."Do you have to play dead often?"Wendy blinked. "Yes. There were a few times. Why else would Victoria catch me in the act so easily?"During normal circumstances, playing dead is not needed. However, during special circumstances, protecting your own life is more important."Yves looked at the group of men on the ground. There were more than a hundred of them. "Did Mrs. B finish them off alone?"Wendy was slightly annoyed by the parade of questions coming from Yves. However, her anger dissipated whenever she thought about the card with no credit limit.Her voice was soft as she explained patiently, "No. Me and Victoria finished them off together. They're a bunch of weaklings."Normally, Victoria would be able to handle it alone. But it has been a while since she fought, so she's a bit out of practice."I wanted to see her eyes being filled with bloodlust. Too bad th

    Victoria dragged Benjamin out of the arena.Benjamin's car was parked at the entrance. Benjamin got in the driver's seat first and patted the passenger's seat.Victoria laughed dryly. She had actually wanted to sit in the back. She obediently got in the passenger seat. She heard the doors being locked the second she closed the car door.Victoria turned to look at Benjamin.There was a silver mini-gun in Benjamin's hand.After Victoria had knocked the guy out, Benjamin arrived. Thus, she had completely forgotten about the gun.She reached out to take it. "Benjamin, that's my gun. I … I used it to knock someone out. I wanted to pick it up. But when I saw you, I had forgotten everything."Thank you. If it weren't for you, I would still have to go back to look for it. I'm exhausted."Benjamin's hand moved away, not letting Victoria take it.He looked at Victoria's bright eyes and said, "You're exhausted?"Victoria smiled, "A little bit."The truth was, she wasn't the slightest

    Benjamin's expression was terrifying.Victoria blinked. "Benjamin, there seems to be something wrong with you."Benjamin was stunned. He frowned as his irritation increased.Victoria looked at Benjamin. He was an extremely difficult man to comfort. Why did such a difficult man exist?However, she still had to comfort him, no matter how hard it was.Victoria's brain began to wrack for ideas. She quickly thought of 108 ways to comfort him.Benjamin turned his back to Victoria as he looked out the window.He finally turned around after a while.The second he turned, Victoria hugged him.His body tensed as he looked at Victoria. Victoria was smiling brightly at him."Benjamin, what were you thinking? Are you jealous? Are you worried I'll run off with someone else, making you the laughingstock of Youngville?"Benjamin's gaze sharpened. "Do I look like I care about what other people think of me?"Of course, he did. If he didn't, why would he spend so much effort to marry her? To

She didn't care that it was slightly inappropriate as she picked up her phone to look at the message.It was an anonymous email. Colette was sure it was from Yvette, so she didn't think before opening it.There was a big document and the photos were loading.Were they photos of Victoria's death? Colette's hand trembled at that thought.Victoria should have died a long time ago. She should not have returned to the Warde family.Elizabeth looked at the malicious and excited expression on Colette's face. She fr

    Victoria had just ended her call with Colette when Yves called her.He asked worriedly, "Mrs. B, is Ben with you? Are you both alright?"Victoria was slightly peeved at the thought of how much energy she had spent to make Benjamin happy. She even had to call him hubby."Yves, aren't you on my side? Why didn't you tell me that you and Benjamin were planning to go to the arena?"Yves explained, "Mrs. B, I'm being wrongly accused here. We went there to catch those suspicious guys. I didn't know you would be there."It's my fault. Next time, no matter where we're going, I'll make sure to tell you."Is Ben furious? He just cares too much about you. He's afraid you'll leave him for another man."Just go and comfort him, and he'll be alright. Don't mind him. He's just a jealous man."Yves was testing the water with his last words.Ever since Benjamin overheard Victoria and Ethan on a call, he had been an emotional wreck.

    Once the car stopped, Victoria got off.Although it had been more than ten years, Victoria recognized him immediately.He was her father before she had returned to the Jameson manor back then. He was Colette's biological father.He was a man who would do anything for money.Victoria smirked. Before she could tell him anything about Colette, Paul Baker turned around.His eyes lit up when he saw Victoria. The malicious and calculating glint in his eyes was painfully obvious."Hi. I'm here to meet a family member of mine. But I'm not from the city."It's my first time here. I'm not sure where I'm supposed to go. Could you show me the way?"Victoria immediately saw and understood Paul's intention.Paul used to be in the human trafficking business. He would lure working women into the mountains and sell them to men who could not find a wife.But he was a gambler. Although he was in such a corrupt business, he would often end up hungry with no money.Paul had made her his target t

    Benjamin thought about it and retyped his message. Benjamin: "Thank you for your care, Ms. Frost. With Vicky here, I'm much better now. I'll add someone in. He'll be sending the Venmo."The Beauty: "Why can't you do it? Why do you need someone to do such a thing for you? Why don't you let someone else care for Victoria if that's the case? You're not sincere. I don't agree to this!"Benjamin: "I need to make money to Venmo you all. Vicky will also be suspicious if I'm always on my phone. I'll also take note of what goes on. If all of you need anything, my friend can help."Wendy: "Benjamin is right. If he doesn't make money, how will we receive any money? Victoria will also have to live a poor life with him. Benjamin was thinking of the bigger picture! Amazing!"A few courageous souls also followed Wendy and tried to persuade Lena.Benjamin called Yves. "I'll add you to a group."Before he could finish, Yves said in shock, "Ben, you created a group? What group? I thought you did

    Victoria saw that Benjamin wasn't looking like he was kidding at all. She placed both of her hands on his chest and turned her head away when he leaned in to kiss her.She then pushed him away hard and changed the topic by saying, "I heard that Solomon was beaten up in his own house last night."Benjamin chuckled lowly and said, "There's no use changing the topic."As he was talking, he arched his neck and pressed his lips near Victoria's ear.Victoria's ears, especially her helix, were extremely sensitive. She subconsciously pulled her hands back and covered her ears with her palms.Benjamin took the chance to wrap his arms around Victoria's waist and pulled her close to him. His face was close to hers.Victoria could feel Benjamin's burning desire as she was pressed down onto his lap. She now knew better than to struggle.This was just shooting herself in the foot!It wasn't that she didn't know what he was like, but she just had to stir him up.Victoria felt uneasy when she

    Victoria used her other hand to support her cheek as she blinked.She said, "How could someone who dislikes wasting words and unnecessary chatter nag endlessly over just a small wound?"Benjamin coldly asked, "Are you complaining that I'm long-winded and annoying now?"He looked aggrieved, as if he would be angry if Victoria were to answer "yes".Victoria laughed out loud again and replied, "I'm not!"She used her finger to poke at Benjamin's cheek.She was smiling when she asked, "Are you madly in love with me, Benjamin?"Benjamin looked at Victoria seriously as he crouched by her legs.If it was before this, he would've nodded and replied "of course" without hesitation. But now …Benjamin couldn't be as confident and sure when he recalled Wendy's previous words.Victoria didn't think much of it and took Benjamin's silence as affirmation.She continued, "I'm thinking that you're definitely madly in love with me. That is why you're so heartbroken and reacted abnormally even

    "Where are we heading to now, Ben and Mrs. B? Why are the people here so weird? Why are they dressed up as if they're in a period drama?"What is this place? Why are the both of you here?"Yves was back to his lively self as soon as he got into the carriage. He started asking endless questions."You regained your memories now, Ben? I knew you'd never forget about Mrs. B no matter what. Even if you did, you'd definitely remember everything as soon as you saw Mrs. B!"Yves gushed on. It took him a good while to realize that Benjamin's expression had changed. Even the atmosphere in the carriage became strange.He asked, "Did I say something wrong?"Wendy laughed dryly and replied, "He's not as deeply in love with Victoria as you think he is. He didn't remember anything."Yves laughed awkwardly before pursing his lips.He started to butter Victoria up."How did you know Ben is here, Mrs. B? How did you find—"Victoria pursed her lips and glanced at Gwen who was driving in the fro

    Yves stared at Anna. She started out mumbling, and her voice grew louder toward the end.He looked confused. "Ben, Mrs. B, what is she talking about?"He was sure she was speaking the same language but couldn't, for the life of him, understand what she meant.Upon listening to Anna, Wendy immediately felt she was too quick to agree to Yves' request because of the money. She wanted to push him aside.However, he was in a sorry state with his limp. His face was visibly thinner than before, and his eyes weren't as bright as they used to be. She found herself sympathizing with him.Victoria pressed her lips together, and her brows creased further.Benjamin turned to Silas. "Go and get Asher!"Anna didn't dial back on her arrogance. "Great idea. I'm looking for him, too."There was a horse race today, yet he locked me up in that cabin! I have a score to settle with him!"Victoria recalled Asher leaving the stables urgently during the day and had a hunch about what happened."If yo

    Yves looked up with teary eyes and could vaguely make out Benjamin's sour face.He rubbed his eyes with all his might. Benjamin's face slowly became clear to him as his vision cleared."It's really you, Ben! Oh, Ben!"He was pleasantly surprised, as though he finally had someone to rely on. He teared up in excitement.The next moment, he became aggrieved again. He was just like a three-year-old who was bullied by a stray cat.He cried, "You're here, Ben. Why didn't you ask someone to look for me? You've no idea what I've experienced."I've been locked away in that shabby cabin and almost lost it. I miss you so freaking much!"Benjamin looked less sour now. He took out his handkerchief that he brought along wherever he went.He passed it to Yves, who had tears and snot all over his face. "Clean up. You're a grownup man, you know. Look at you."With one hand taking the handkerchief, Yves clung onto Victoria with the other.Benjamin stared at his hand that was holding onto her.

    Asher felt his heart shatter. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I've already gifted it to someone else!"The person in charge felt his heart ache, too. "I wanted to inform you when you arrived, but you told me to talk to you after the race."You've always said that horse has a character and that you like it, no? I never expected you to give it away."Who did you give it to? Could you, perhaps, buy it back from him?"Asher was dispirited. "I can't."He waved it off and continued, "Forget about it. It belongs to someone else now."I'd been obliging to its every wish for all the time it had been here. Still, it never obeyed me."It's intelligent and chooses its own master. I can't tame it. It's no better than an average horse to me."Tell those who witnessed that incident that they shouldn't talk about it to anyone. You may leave."The person in charge glanced at him. Bowing, he acknowledged the instruction he received and left.Asher looked toward Sebastian and sighed dejectedly

    Silas and Wendy immediately hurried over in excitement when they heard they were going to split the winnings.Wendy, who wasn't the best in maths, counted gleefully, "We bet one thousand gold coins. As the odds are at one to 246, we'll get … ten thousand, 200 thousand … 244600 gold coins. Am I right?"She surprised herself when she said that out loud. She and Silas exchanged glances and started hopping about in delight.That was a lot of gold coins! They were rich!"Ten percent of 244600 gold coins would amount to roughly 24 thousand gold coins, so 20 percent would make it about 50 thousand. Victoria—"Silas and Wendy were already dizzy. Turning to them, Victoria instructed, "Give us a moment, and take Onyx with you.""You …" Silas looked at her suspiciously. Was she planning to keep all the money to herself?She gave him a warning glare, and he and Wendy obediently led Onyx away.They shouldn't offend their moneybag right now.Victoria looked at Asher.

    Everyone looked in the direction of the sound. It was a teenager who was around 15 years old. Not bothering to keep up his image, he sat on the floor and clung to Sebastian's leg.Besides him, many others were standing around Sebastian. They all looked at Sebastian pitifully.Asher loudly asked the one kneeling, "Just look at you, Troy Lancaster! What happened to your enthusiasm?"It's only a meager sum. Do you really have to react this way?"Troy Lancaster? He was the Lancaster family's youngest son, Sebastian's younger maternal cousin.Victoria had a photographic memory. She saw his name when she skimmed through the log book earlier.He had bet 500 silver coins, which wasn't the least of all. It wasn't a hefty sum either, considering who he was.The Lancasters had very conflicting approaches in his upbringing. His mother pampered him, while his father was very strict toward him because he thought he was spoiled.Judging from his reaction, he must've been greedy and impulsivel

    Once Roxy left, several women with ill intentions who criticized Victoria earlier became uneasy. They came up with excuses and left one after another.As the drama ended, everyone calmed down. Some were listless, while some were feeling down.There were also a few who approached Victoria, among whom were mainly men. They earnestly introduced themselves.Benjamin scanned the men who surrounded Victoria and somehow felt betrayed. Glowering, he seemed about to fly off the handle.His glare was too harsh, and many retreated after a short exchange with Victoria. She studied those who resolutely remained beside her.Compared to people from the outside world, the clan members had less desire for material possessions.Those who stood their ground didn't feel displeased at losing a hefty sum in the bet. They also withstood the pressure Benjamin's glare exuded.It was fair to say they were the best among the best.They were from decent families and had been receiving proper education sin
