Chapter 548 Zooey's Situation


Victoria stammered, "I... I'm only trying to protect you. Knowing about these things won't do you any good!"

Zooey nodded with a tight smile. "Alright, let's put that aside for now. What about Kuangmaid Port? Anything you want to share with me?" The mention of Kuangmaid Port drained the color from Victoria's face.

"I... I don't know anything about Kuangmaid Port, Zooey. Don't listen to Chloe's nonsense. I swear, I'm completely in the dark."

"Enough! How long are you going to keep lying to me?" Zooey's disbelief was palpable.

She thought bitterly, "I married Aaron, and we never had children. On the surface, it seems like he protects me in the Landry family, but in reality, my position has always been low.

I've been trying to get involved in Aaron's business, whether it's the port trade or anything else, just to truly integrate into this family.

I've told Victoria more than once that Aaron has business at Kuangmaid Port, but he's never willing to share anything with me. Even a brief visit to the port would make him incredibly anxious. Victoria promised to look into it and get back to me with any useful information.

But what's the reality now?

Victoria has been working with Aaron all along. The ships at Kuangmaid Port aren't just used for smuggling alcohol and cigarettes; they're involved in other illicit activities as well. And Victoria? She's known all along and might even be a participant.
