Chapter 139

“Daisy…” Victoria mumbled and smiled.

People like Daisy needed to be taught a lesson in case she did something even worse. But then again, if Victoria did anything to Daisy, she would do even worse things to exact revenge.

There was no end to this infinite loop of vengeance.

When Gabrielle saw Victoria’s smile, she felt embarrassed. “Do you think I’m stupid to be cheated by that b*stard again?” she asked as she played with her hands.

“No.” Victoria stopped for a few seconds before continuing, “That man isn’t worth your love at all.”

Gabrielle’s expression turned gloomy. “Let’s not talk about him and ruin our moods,” she waved her hands and said.

Then, her eyes shone as she turned excited and exclaimed, “Let me tell you something interesting! Mr. Coleman beat Daisy up for you, and that stupid woman revealed the man backing her! Who do you think the person is?”

Victoria, despite her lack of interest, asked cooperatively, “Who?”

“It’s Henry Ford!” Gabrielle couldn’t help but raise her voice. “Miss Spritz’s grandfather, Henry Ford of the scholarly family! He is a well-known calligrapher who is already seventy years old. What made him get involved with a woman like Daisy?”

Victoria was shocked by that news as well. As she was close with Bella in the past, she had seen Henry many times.

From what Victoria remembered, Henry was truly unique. He didn’t care about money or reputation; he spent his days practicing calligraphy, planting flowers, and walking his dog. Hence, it took her by surprise that he was the one backing Daisy.

Gabrielle, on the other hand, was excited that Victoria was now interested in what she was saying. “That old man is already over the age of seventy. Do you believe he can still perform as a man?”

Victoria was stumped for words.

“Daisy even claimed to be pregnant with Old Mr. Ford’s child!” Gabrielle then began to gossip. She moved closer to Victoria and continued, “Do you believe that child is really his? Or he has been cuckolded?”
