Victoria hurriedly took a step back, flustered. “I can’t drink,” she said, her voice trembling.

A sharp, mocking laugh came from the crowd. “What, pretending to be high and mighty? Everyone knows that women at events like this usually have one of two roles: either they’re the wives of CEOS, or assistants serving them.

Victoria’s face alternated between white and red in embarrassment.

“Oh, I see,” Victoria let out a relieved breath.

But just then, the same voice that had mocked her earlier persisted. “Mr. Hill, is Mrs. Hill really unable to attend?”

Nathan’s expression hardened as he shot a cold glance at the person asking. “What do you mean? Don’t I know my wife’s situation better than anyone?”
