All Chapters of Wonder Wife: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Victoria and Yves looked like a matching couple as they walked off. Roman was ecstatic as his gaze followed them.He straightened up. He wanted nothing more than to announce that the woman who walked off with Yves was his daughter.He would soon be Yves' father-in-law.Zachary silently reproached Victoria for being flirtatious. He wanted to go after them, but Nicole grabbed him. "You mustn't offend Yves!"After leaving the hall, Victoria and Yves went to the backyard.She casually leaned against the wall and looked at him. "Why have you come?"Now that Colette's reputation had been damaged, no one wanted anything to do with her.Afraid of getting involved with her somehow, hardly any marriageable young men attended the party.Yves couldn't resist the juicy gossip. "Hey, Mrs. B. Are you really Roman's daughter? Were you born out of wedlock?"Then, he mumbled, "But it can't be. You won't be engaged to Zachary if you're an illegitimate child.""If you're curious, you can always

Roman kept his excitement in check. He said matter-of-factly, "Victoria's not an illegitimate child. She's our precious daughter."When she was born, her health was frail. She had to be kept in an incubator. Ginny and I were a bundle of nerves then."Later on, we found a skilled tarot reader. He instructed us to entrust Victoria to someone in the countryside. We were also to keep her existence a secret until she was 18, after which we could bring her home."To keep her safe, we never told anyone about her, including Lettie."Roman gazed affectionately at Victoria as he expressed his remorse, "Vicky, I'm sorry we couldn't be with you when you were growing up, but we did it for your sake."You've turned 18 now. You're safe and sound. We can finally live together again. I'll certainly make amends. Say the word, and I'll give you anything you desire."Will you give us a chance to make it up to you?"As he ended his passionate speech, tears rolled down his cheeks.She was his precio

Colette looked at Zachary in disbelief. There was a flicker of hatred in her eyes as she denied loudly, "No! That was not what happened. I-I didn't drug you!"Zachary did not believe a word she said. He retorted, "You did it! You drugged me! You did that so you could stay with me!"Upset, Colette shook her head vigorously. "I came here because I saw you from upstairs … I just wanted to explain what happened with Ronald."I-I only hugged you because I was scared you would leave. You were the one who suddenly turned around. You kissed me and held me down. Zach, h-how can you blame it on me?"She put on a fragile, pitiful look and tried to garner pity.However, her cheek was swollen from Nicole's violent slaps. She did not look pretty at all.Besides, most of those present did not believe what she said. They thought she was pretentious.Colette hugged her knees and curled into a fetal position. She thought there was something weird about the way they looked at her.Irritated, she

Ginny's legs turned to jelly, and she collapsed in fear. She looked fearfully at Victoria, who had already walked away.That woman wasn't her daughter. She was the devil, a devil who wanted revenge on her!Yves was startled when he saw Victoria standing before him.Victoria had a chilling air to her. She looked cold and stiff. Her fingers kept shaking, and her eyes were unfocused.She wasn't freezing from the cold but consumed in dark, bloodthirsty rage. The sight made him tremble. What did Ginny say or do to make Victoria act this strangely?Yves was curious, but he dared not ask. "Mrs. B, just ignore whatever those jerks say about you! If you can't, just say the word, and I'll deal with them myself!"Victoria glanced at Yves as she said in a trembling voice, "Do you have candy? I want a lollipop!"Her words stunned Yves for a moment. He said, "I'll go inside and get it for you."He remembered there were some lollipops in the Jameson manor's banquet hall. He could also tell

"I'll get it for you." Benjamin walked out of the bathroom, letting out a long breath.What a vixen.He brought the towel and bathrobe back into the bathroom. Like a gentleman, he turned his back to Victoria and gave them to her.Victoria wiped her body dry and put on a bathrobe. She walked out of the bathroom and saw Benjamin face to face. However, before she could speak, Benjamin spat, "I'm taking a shower." Then, he walked into the bathroom.Victoria hummed in assent as she watched his anxious movements. After that, she returned to her room to change into her pajamas and took out a blanket from a cabinet.She had already laid out a mattress, but Benjamin had yet to come out of the bathroom. Wasn't he just taking a shower? Why was he taking so long?Feeling worried, Victoria knocked on the door, but Benjamin didn't respond. She tried to open the door, but the door was locked from the inside.She yelled, "Benjamin!""I'm still showering!"Victoria breathed a sigh of relief
