This series of events brought the public's attention to Victoria's reunion with her parents. The attention had reached its peak.The trending topic kept changing, but it was all related to Victoria. The comment section was extremely lively."Assistant: 'President, Ms. Victoria has been bullied.'""President Brow Raiser: 'Who has bullied my woman?'""Mean official account and journalist: 'We apologize.'"A user commented, "A promiscuous CEO turns over a new leaf and spoils his beloved wife. The classic Mary Sue story arc has actually happened in real life. How romantic."They added, "Mr. Homer is so manly. His boyfriend prowess is at maximum. I envy Victoria. Why can't this Cinderella story happen to me?"Someone replied, "Look into the mirror. You'll understand why you aren't the Cinderella."Another wrote, "Society is brought down by the exact type of people like those in the media who don't report the truth to the public. They echo whatever is trending on social media, and ev
Victoria pursed her lips. "The reason Ronald got AIDs was that he was promiscuous and it did not matter if his partners were male or female. As for Zachary … he was held in the police station and not an isolation room. Did you expect him to be treated like a prince?"Benjamin is very busy. He's unlike you who eats too much when idle, spends every day plotting against others, and acts like a mad dog that randomly bites people.""I'm like a mad dog that randomly bites others? Avon Hotel belongs to the Homers. The Homers and the Harpers have always been close and they do not lack money," replied Colette. She continued, "If someone did not make such a request to Mr. Homer, do you think that he would show Zachary no mercy over a door and even ask for an exorbitant amount of 20 million dollars?"20 million?Victoria suddenly recalled that time when Benjamin returned to Youngville. Quinton had given her a 30 million dollar check. That amount of money …It was probably because Nicol
It was just as Victoria had predicted. Colette was being roasted to death in the comments.A commenter wrote, "Wasn't she splashed with shit? Why does it look to me that she ate shit instead? What a foul mouth. Did she eat the piss and shit?" "Victoria isn't a good person. No matter how you slice it, Colette is her sister. She's already so pitiful yet she still shared these screenshots. Does she want to push her into suicide?" commented another."Did Victoria ever say she was a good person? She had never tried putting on a kind facade. She has a daring personality and she hates and loves whomever she wants," wrote another.The comment continued, "Besides if the person she hates has told her such humiliating insults, why can't she fight back? Just because Colette is miserable? Her misery wasn't caused by Victoria."On the contrary, she was the one who single-handedly planned for Victoria to be so miserably scolded right now."Another user wrote, "I don't quite understand the worl
After hanging up the phone, Victoria wasn't in a great mood.She sat in silence for a while. As she was intending to call Benjamin, her phone rang. It was Louis calling.Victoria hesitated for a moment and answered the call.Louis remained silent. All she could hear was his faint breathing, reminding her that he was on the line."Louis," Victoria called, breaking the silence."Yeah.""What's wrong? You've been quiet for a while.""Is it true what they're saying about you and Mr. Harper?" Louis inquired.On the other end of the line, Louis couldn't see Victoria's reaction. But Victoria's expression turned uneasy upon hearing his question."Did Grandma talk to you? How is she doing now?" Victoria asked.Louis responded nonchalantly, "She's been the same. It's her own issue, not being able to accept things. She's worried about the matter between you and Mr. Harper, so she asked me to talk to you."Victoria's brows furrowed. "She's hospitalized?""No."Not pressing further, Vi
At the police station, Victoria stepped into the room where Cindy was being held.The stench of the room hit Victoria as soon as she entered. It was an odor far more repulsive than any garbage dump. She stood at the doorway. "Cindy, let's go."She signaled to the two doctors in white coats who accompanied her. In response, they entered the room and began escorting Cindy out.Meanwhile, on the ground floor of the police station, the usual staff had left for the day since it was past regular working hours. A heavy silence settled in.This tranquility was suddenly shattered by a desperate scream, echoing through the entire building."What do you mean, wait? I've been waiting long enough! The first time we met, you told me to wait. It's been two weeks now, and you're still making me wait?"Louis, do you even plan to help me? Or do you want me to rot away in here or even die, just so you can secure your grip on the Warde family unopposed?"Well, I've got news for you, that won't ha
Inside the car, there was only Benjamin and Victoria.Benjamin was driving. Since Victoria had entered the car, she hadn't uttered a word. She seemed lost in thought.The two of them remained silent, with only the music as a backdrop.Benjamin glanced at Victoria and asked, "What's on your mind?"Victoria snapped back to reality. She turned to Benjamin and shook her head. "It's nothing."Benjamin looked at Victoria for a couple of seconds before shifting his gaze.He tapped his fingers on the steering wheel and asked, "Ever heard of the legend of Fortuna University?"Victoria responded with curiosity, "What legend?""Universities usually take many years to build their reputation. The most renowned Yrindalean universities have histories of a hundred years or more. Some even date back several decades."In contrast, Fortuna University has only been around for less than eight years. When you compare it to other Yrindalean universities, including those surpassed by Fortuna or even
Colette had just arrived at Ginny's room. A sudden scream pierced the air, originating from the bathroom. She was startled. Casting a stern look at the frightened yet disdainful servants, she demanded, "What are you all doing standing here? Why aren't you with my mom?""It's not that we didn't want to. It's just that Mrs. Jameson wouldn't let us into the bathroom," one of them explained. Though the odor emanating from within was so foul that they had no plans of entering, either."I'll make sure you all pay if anything happens to my mom! Close the door and get out!" Colette's temper flared. She chased the servants out of the room. After they left, Colette entered the bathroom.Inside, she found a messy bathroom floor covered in water. The air was filled with a mixture of various perfumes, along with the familiar scents of Ginny's bath gel and shampoo. However, it failed to mask the sickening stench that Colette found both horrifying and familiar.The odor was unbearable. Cole
The phone call was from Yvonne to Colette.Colette wasn't particularly eager to deal with Yvonne at this moment, so she ignored the call.Yvonne was persistent, making several attempts before Colette finally answered."Someone unethical like Yvonne should be locked up in prison for life. How can she be let out?" Colette thought to herself.Yvonne immediately confronted through the call, "Colette, do you think I'm nobody now just because I'm not in Brighton anymore? Is that why you're avoiding my calls on purpose?"Yvonne's anger was palpable. Her frustration ran deep. It was evident that she had faced setbacks recently.Colette did think this way but did not admit it. It might provoke Yvonne."Why would I think that way? Even though you are no longer in Brighton, you've always been kind to me, Ms. Sheehan. Considering my current situation, I'm not in a much better position than you."I didn't answer the phone because my mom has been unwell recently. I've been taking care of her
