The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge

Chapter 172

That afternoon, Victoria was caught off guard by a sudden notice of reassignment.

She would no longer be serving as Curtis's executive assistant. Instead, she was being transferred to the Investment Department, taking over Violet's position as Deputy Manager.
