Chapter 221

Victoria's body shuddered, and the words died in her throat.

Mr. Gezmond's wife? Lionel's wife? Is she here in Hallsbay too?

With those thoughts in mind, Victoria stiffly turned to look at the doorway.

It was then she saw a young woman in a wine-red dress striding over with a few bodyguards surrounding her.

She was a beautiful Adrune woman with delicate facial features; it was as if she was the magnum opus of a master sculptor.

She looked noble, elegant, fashionable, and stylish. Victoria could see all the good qualities of a modern woman in the young woman.

Furthermore, there was mirth in her eyes.

Victoria guessed that only a woman loved by a man would be able to have such peaceful delight in her eyes.

Lionel must adore her. I'm sure Lionel must be living a happy life with this beautiful woman by his side.

While those thoughts flashed past her mind, the voices of greetings traveled into her ears.

Their greetings of “Mrs. Luther” rushed into her ears and ached her heart.

“Wends, why are you here?” came a voice, and the entire lobby fell silent.

Victoria instinctively turned to look in the direction of the voice. She then saw a slender figure stepping out of the private elevator and walking toward the young woman at the doorway.

Victoria knew that figure well—it was an image that had been seared into her soul.

When she saw him reach out to pull the young woman into his arms, Victoria hastily spun around. The moment she lowered her gaze, a teardrop slid down her cheek and crept between her lips.
