Wonder Wife Chapter 230 Baby-Making Plans
It was nearing the time Benjamin had agreed with Eleanor over the phone to bring Victoria back to the Summers' residence.It was 9:00 am. After having breakfast, Victoria and Benjamin were getting ready to leave when the phone rang."Benjamin, someone's calling," Victoria said.Benjamin reluctantly answered the call, "We're in the middle of packing up to leave."Eleanor was worried that Benjamin might stand her up, but she also didn't want to delay his baby-making plans. In the past few days, she had been calling Benjamin every day at exactly 11:00 am.Eleanor exclaimed and remarked, "You're already packing up to leave? I thought you guys were still sleeping. "What about Vicky? If she's still asleep, let her rest a bit. After all, you're all family, and it's okay to have lunch a bit later."Benjamin picked up on Eleanor's subtle hints. "She's already up, and we're about to head out."Eleanor, with a hint of annoyance in her voice, exclaimed, "You can't just dawdle on the baby-

"Alright!" Eleanor replied loudly toward the direction of the entrance.She turned to look at Victoria and Benjamin. She cheerfully laughed. "Your Grandpa is already impatient. Your uncles have waited for so long as well. They're probably looking forward to meeting your wife now. Let's head indoors. Otherwise, they might just rush out instead."Comment by Deborah Lim: replaced 外甥媳妇Eleanor walked in front.Benjamin's hand was intertwined with Victoria's as they followed her.The Summers Residence featured a classic American interior design. Its furniture was a mix of antique, vintage, and well-crafted modern pieces. It was indeed an elegant space.Comment by Deborah Lim: apparently a house w a classic American interior design would typically have a mix of these furniture so i'm just following itThe layout of the house gave out a solemn vibe.However, the space was brightened up by colorful flowers, which helped lessen the dull and depressive look."All these fresh flowers w

Once everything was placed on the table, the expressions of those who were jealous had all changed.Helena's eyes widened upon seeing Eleanor's gift for Victoria. She said sulkily, "Isn't this your favorite set of emerald accessories, Grandma? Those were the finest Colombian emeralds ever. "I was at an auction a while back, and one of the lots was a fine Brazilian emerald necklace. "The quality was about the same as yours, or maybe not even like yours. The hammer price in the end was 80 million."Yours still included a bracelet and a pair of earrings. A set like yours could probably fetch the price of a penthouse in Youngville."As soon as she said that, some of their gazes toward Victoria turned unfriendly.Eleanor has a lot of valuable things. Now that she was old, all those would be theirs when she passed.A gift for Victoria meant that they would get one less inheritance.Those were all money. Who would complain about having too much money anyway?"I love green items. I

Mindy and the rest had never thought that instead of keeping the peace, Victoria was adding fuel to the fire.Must she be this arrogant during the first visit?Mindy couldn't help but murmur, "As expected from a wild woman raised in the countryside. She was just waiting for chaos to happen."Eleanor felt extremely awkward and annoyed. She wanted to kick all these people out of the Summers Residence."Was what Vicky said wrong? Wouldn't our dignity be thrown out of the window if we were outdoors? The Summers family was getting more and more unruly nowadays. "I'm not even dead, and yet every single one of you was already coveting my belongings. You guys weren't the one in control of the Summers family just yet!"The more Eleanor said, the angrier she got. "When have you not gotten any benefits from Ben all these years? You guys were shameless when you preyed on him. "I'm just giving my granddaughter-in-law gifts. I'm not even asking you guys for money. And yet, you guys are jeal

The books amounted nearly to a thousand in number.As soon as Samuel had sat down, a servant came to serve them some tea.The servant went back out once he was done serving.Samuel looked at Benjamin, but ultimately, his gaze landed on Victoria.He was scrutinizing her. His sharp gaze made everyone's hearts pound.The atmosphere in the study suddenly became tense.Victoria and Samuel looked at each other with a smile. It was neither overbearing nor hurried.Abraham was surprised when he saw how calm Victoria was. He was pleased and satisfied.After a while, Samuel took up a cup of tea and took a sip. He then said

"Granduncle, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for Aunt Victoria if you ask her to compete with the two uncles?"Timothy and Steven were Abraham's successors whom he focused the most on. Their abilities were the strongest in every aspect among all of the Summers males.It was a matter of practice to make perfect with things like guns as well.These two men have been playing with guns since they were three.Who could compete with them other than some abnormally gifted person like Benjamin?Victoria didn't know what they were thinking in their hearts.She decided to show off her skills in front of Samuel and Abraham. Otherwise, they wouldn't be at ease until the competition for the Harper family's security team had ended.Victoria walked to the long table full of guns. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Her eyes were shining after she slowly opened them back."I'm ready."Abraham pressed down onto the pocket watch in his hand. "Start!"Victoria took the n

"Sure."Abraham agreed easily. "How about we do it at Mount Grey? The terrain there was suitable, and it's the place we've been having our training at. I'll give you three days to familiarize yourself with the terrain." Victoria gave it some thought. "Where would I have so much time to familiarize myself with the terrain if this was a real battlefield? I don't need three days, we can just do it during tomorrow evening. "It'll be more exciting during the night. I'll just use the remaining time to check out the terrain. You guys can discuss and come up with a battle plan. Then we can make preparations."She had originally wanted to ask Wendy and the others to join her. But it wouldn't be any challenging if that was the case.Victoria looked at the rising Mount Grey. "I also need a helper."She needed someone that was familiar with the terrain.An extra person could help to provide more ideas and choices in times of trouble too."Who do you want for help? Anyone except for Ben!"

Eleanor handed the dishes over to Benjamin once they were done dividing them. There was a good amount on their plates."You can just place your dishes outside your room once you're done. I'll get someone to clear them for you tomorrow morning. "You and Victoria should get a good night's rest. You don't have to wake up for breakfast. There's no rush for lunch as well. Hurry up and go upstairs."Benjamin liked the quiet and never liked being disturbed. His room was on the top floor.Nobody would go upstairs to disturb him generally.Melvin was eating. He looked envious when he saw how Eleanor had been admonishing Benjamin as if he was a child.Only Benjamin could get that kind of special treatment from Eleanor.His aunts would've been jealous if they saw Benjamin's outstanding treatment.Benjamin hummed a reply. "You head back and rest up earlier, too, Grandma."He then brought the food upstairs.Melvin looked pitifully at Eleanor. "Great-grandma, I'm tired too. Can I skip bre

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
Wonder Wife Chapter 603 I'm Yours
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
Wonder Wife Chapter 602 Love Me Love My Dog
"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
Wonder Wife Chapter 601 You're Trying to Threaten Me
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
Wonder Wife Chapter 600 What's Your Motive
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.
Wonder Wife Chapter 599 An Unexpected Encounter With Yves
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
Wonder Wife Chapter 598 The Chosen One
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. "That's over 240 thousa
Wonder Wife Chapter 597 Let's Split the Winnings
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
Wonder Wife Chapter 596 Make Me Fall For Him
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
