Wonder Wife Chapter 546 Just You Wait
Victoria snapped out of her sleepiness. Her hazy mind cleared up instantly. "He's what?"She sat upright in bed. She continued in a nasal tone, "What do you mean?"Wendy got up from the chair and sat on the edge of the bed. She looked excited. "It's almost the same as what you're going through."He'll choose someone he likes among the women from the Hughes clan and marry her. The only difference is you can only pick one husband, but he can choose many women."You've watched in movies how monarchs choose their concubines, right? That's the gist of it. Victoria, look at what he's doing to you. Maybe you can just—""When did you get the news?""Just this afternoon. It's first-hand news, straight from the oven. Those from mediocre families may not have even received word of it."Victoria sensed her excitement and glared at her. "How is this good news? Are you enjoying this?"Wendy realized she was too excited and covered her mouth with her hands. Then, she let go and said, "No, I m
Wonder Wife Chapter 547 Beat Him to a Bloody Pulp
Wendy knew at once Victoria was going to wreak havoc when she saw the arrogant act she was putting on.Things were getting interesting. Splendid!Solomon's temper flared when he saw her behaving that way. "You know best what you did last night!"Are you heading out? I thought you were sick! How dare you leave me hanging for the whole day?"He was seething with rage, so much so that even his breathing grew rapid.He came in the morning and had been waiting until now. If he hadn't barged in, he wouldn't even have seen her in person.To think they had the audacity to lie and treat him without respect! They weren't taking him seriously.Feeling like a fool, he thought they had challenged his inviolable authority."Do you think you'll be able to escape from me?" He snarled.Victoria took in his pompous behavior. She stepped forward into the main building with her arms crossed and looked at him condescendingly."I was sick, but I'm fine now after sleeping through the day. Do you ha
Wonder Wife Chapter 548 You're No Match for Me
Solomon's body arched upward. Before he could vomit blood, Wendy covered his mouth with her hands, and he had to swallow his blood.The strong stench of blood made his stomach churn. It was so uncomfortable that his eyes widened. He looked like a dead fish."Victoria, I held him down!" Wendy shouted in delight, waiting for Victoria to praise her.Victoria slowly walked up to him. She was panting, and her face was pale.After she regained consciousness, she had been attentive to her body's recovery. She thought she was almost fully healed. But after the duel with Solomon, she knew she was wrong.Her body was weak now. No matter how hard she trained, she couldn't return to her former self.Her shoulders were aching, and her hair was a mess. Damn it!She wanted to slap him but saw that his face was covered in blood. Instead, she stepped on his neck."I thought you were strong. Where's that pompous ass I saw earlier?"Trying to go all high-and-mighty on me? You should've done your
Wonder Wife Chapter 549 You'd Better Stay Home
Lena nodded at Victoria. "That's right. That's what I taught you."She turned to Solomon, and her gentle expression became a stern one. "Why did you hit Vicky?"Solomon remembered Jackalyn telling him not to let others know about what had happened last night and cause a stir."I hit her? She's fine and dandy! Look what she did to me."It's your scheme, isn't it? You're trying to kill me so that you're the only legitimate descendants left. No one can compete with you then, right?""You should watch what you say, Mr. Hughes," Sebastian said calmly but with a hint of warning.Victoria hugged Lena's arm. Pointing at Solomon, she accused, "He keeps saying that I hit his mother last night and wants me to beg her for mercy."I've barely been here for a few days and know no one. Why would I go to Jackalyn and beat her up in the middle of the night?"You're just putting the blame on me. You must feel that we're a threat to you after we arrived and are now trying to smear our reputation!
Wonder Wife Chapter 550 Falsely Accused
Victoria yawned and tried to end this topic. "Understood. Don't worry. I cherish my life more than anyone else.""Do you like the things I gifted you?""I was unwell and slept through the day. I haven't checked them out. I'll let you know after I do.""Unwell?"She nodded. "Yes. I caught a cold from the breeze last night. I've never had that since I was ten. But after falling into the ocean, I started falling sick easily."I slept the whole day today because I was feeling sick. Solomon didn't believe me and insisted I was lying."Solomon didn't know she almost died, but Sebastian knew.Unlike Jackalyn, he had a conscience. When dealing with people like him, it would be best to trigger his guilty conscience and use it to her advantage."Please rest well, Ms. Victoria. I'll ensure those who shouldn't appear here never do."Then, he left. She knew he most probably was going to pay Solomon a visit. Another fight might ensue between them, and their conflict would only worsen.Solo
Wonder Wife Chapter 551 In the Middle of the Night
Wendy led Victoria and Silas around the entrance and came to a side door.Seeing how excited she was as she pointed at a hole, Victoria almost punched her out of anger. "That's the secret passage you mentioned? A doggie door?"Wendy was gleeful. "I thought it'd be gone after so many years. What a pleasant surprise! It's like they've kept it here just for us!"Victoria thought she was being ridiculous and almost cursed out loud."No freaking way! I'm not going through a doggie door!" Silas said out loud what she was thinking.Wendy tried to gloss over it. "It's not a doggie door. It's a secret passage!"I used to access the manor through it when Jackalyn first arrived here. Her looks were heavenly when she was young. Now, she's just cruel and wicked."A great man knows when to yield. Victoria, you want to meet Benjamin, don't you?"She looked from one to another. "I'll go in anyway. It's really nothing. Come, I'll show you the way!"With that, she lay flat on the ground and wri
Wonder Wife Chapter 552 No One Can Stop Me
Benjamin's body shuddered, like electricity flowed through him, and his eyes flew open.He lowered his eyes to look at the culprit, who was pressing down on him and stimulating his senses. His brows furrowed.Damn it! He was still mad at her, but he was now aroused. Since when had his Adam's apple become so sensitive?Victoria noticed his gaze and looked up. "Not going to pretend you're asleep anymore?"A naughty smile played on her lips, and she looked smug.Noticing his frustration, she slowly moved her gaze downward. Then, she abruptly flipped his blanket aside.She blinked innocently and looked not in the least surprised at what she saw. Her eyes were sparkling and full of smiles.Unable to hold in her laughter, she burst out laughing. "I see you're aroused."The look in her eyes fueled the desire burning within him.Putting on a straight face, he sat up as though nothing had happened. He calmly pulled the blanket over himself and hid that giveaway part of his body. Then,
Wonder Wife Chapter 553 You're Mine
Benjamin kissed with all his might like he was punishing her.Victoria thought she hadn't done anything wrong, and he didn't have the right to do so. He was such a hypocrite!Her eyes widened with fury, and she struggled to pull out of the kiss.Seeing how reluctant she was, he thought of Sebastian—a perfect man, commended by everyone in the clan.Jealousy took over Benjamin. He kissed harder, and Victoria started feeling out of breath. She struggled harder than ever and even bit his lips.Hissing in pain, he hugged her tighter as he continued kissing her. The more she struggled, the angrier he felt. He held her firmly and thwarted her intentions of breaking free.However, she was the type who was open to persuasion but not to coercion. And it wasn't like her to not put up a fight. They started grappling with each other.In the end, Benjamin won out. He pushed her onto the bed and accidentally caused her to land on the wound Solomon left on her.She yelped in pain. As she shift

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
