All Chapters of Wonder Wife: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Victoria's pupils contracted. Elbow angled upwards, she went for the person's throat, but he reacted even quicker.A large hand grabbed her wrist before pinning her against the wall by the window."It's me." A familiar voice. The familiar smell of candles. Victoria looked up. Under the dim light, she saw Benjamin's handsome features.She was shocked. "Benjamin!"Not only did she raise her hand against Mr. Harper, but she nearly injured him too.Before Benjamin could question her, she quickly explained herself."I didn't know it was you! Had I known, I wouldn't have dared to lift a finger against you. You're far stronger and more skilled than I am. I'm simply no match against you!"Benjamin noted her superb bootlicking skills and her shrewd expression. An unbidden smile tugged at his lips. "They've got something on you. It's an affront to me."Victoria nodded in agreement and continued to praise him, "You're right, Benjamin. Thankfully, you've arrived on time to save me from

The journalists dashed into the room. Pointing their cameras at Cindy and Ronald, they swiftly snapped away.Cindy screeched in despair. She covered her face and lay on the ground to avoid being photographed.She yelled, "Zach, they're lying! That's not what happened! I didn't do any of that! I'm innocent! You're the only one who has seen my body! I won't marry anyone else but you!"Furious, Zachary wanted to rip out Cindy's tongue.Once the journalists got the shots they wanted, they gathered around Yvonne. It was as if they had discussed this beforehand."Is the girl on the floor one of Brighton's students?" asked a journalist."It's said that Brighton's students will resort to any means necessary to marry into a rich family. Is Brighton responsible when such a situation occurs? Is it facilitated by the school?" asked another."Please explain, Ms. Sheehan!"Each question was more pointed than the last. Yvonne's face darkened with anger. She was extremely displeased with Colet

Benjamin and Louis looked at each other with hostility. Victoria could sense the tension in the air.Benjamin was the first to look away. He turned to Victoria. "You promised me first."Louis immediately called out tenderly, "Vicky."What was going on?To think that Victoria would one day be caught up in the cliche of two men fighting over a woman.Victoria did not feel an overwhelming sense of honor and self-importance. Instead, she had a headache.Her eyes flitted between Louis and Benjamin before she finally said to Benjamin, "I'd like a moment to talk to Louis in private."Benjamin pursed his lips and said, "I'll get someone to bring the car over. Be quick."Victoria sweetly made the okay sign.Then, she went up to Louis. "I did say yes to him first. Why bother fighting over this? It saves you the trouble of giving me a ride. Besides, isn't it great to arrive home and get into bed sooner?"Victoria continued, "Don't be unhappy. Remember our relationship. Once I get the

Victoria's ear tingled. Benjamin's warm breath made her cheeks flush.She pushed Benjamin away. Leaning back, she touched her ear while giving him an irritated glare."Benjamin!" she exclaimed in annoyance.He must have done it on purpose. His lips had been so near that they practically brushed against her ear. Every word he spoke sent shivers down her spine.What had she done, aside from making a few playful remarks? He had already punished her. Was it not enough?If this had been any other man besides Benjamin, she would suspect that he was trying to hold her accountable for her actions.That being said, had it been any other man, he would have received a severe beating by now.Upon seeing the way Victoria seemed like a cornered cat when she was angry, Benjamin curled his lips.As Victoria looked at Benjamin, she reminded herself not to get angry. She needed to focus on the two billion dollars she hoped to gain from him. She flexed her fingers and cracked her knuckles. It s

In the morning, Victoria woke up to find that the trending topic about her on Twitter had disappeared. The video of her dancing, along with the candid photos taken of her, had all been deleted. Even the related comments were nowhere to be found.At first, Victoria thought it was Louis' doing and did not think much of it.In the evening, the official account of Brighton Women's College issued a statement.Brighton would be suspending classes for three days to conduct an internal investigation. The college promised to provide an official explanation to the public within that time frame. At the same time, the Education Bureau summoned Yvonne for questioning.That night, at 8:00 pm, Colette posted an update on Twitter. The post was written in Ginny's voice."My poor daughter," it said.There was a photo attached. It was a photo of Colette in a hospital gown. She was lying on a hospital bed while hooked up to an IV drip. She looked extremely pale in the photo. It made her seem f
