The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge

Chapter 182

Yulia had heard that McNeil was waiting for Violet at the entrance, and insisted on accompanying her out.

Simms tagged along as well.

Just then, Simms' phone rang-it was a call from one of the event organizers.

At noon, Mr. Campbell was hosting a luncheon for all the major business leaders of Starfall City, along with the professors participating in the roundtable discussion.

Simms called out to Violet, quickly relaying the news, and asked her to check if McNeil had received an invitation.

Violet nodded. "You two go ahead. I'll let McNeil know. If he's invited, we'll just be a bit late."

By this time, McNeil's car had already pulled up to the entrance. Violet climbed in, and Yulia watched the sleek corporate car glide away, looking pleased.

"Seems like McNeil really does care about Violet," Yulia remarked.

Simms, however, looked less than thrilled. “Yeah. I just wonder when Victoria will finally step aside and let them be."

Meanwhile, Curtis found Victoria as he, too, was preparing to leave the exhibition hall.

All morning, Quantum Core Technologies had been the only company with anything worth showing off, and Curtis was already tired of all the attention.

Just then, both Victoria and Curtis received phone calls-Curtis got the official luncheon invitation from the organizers, while Victoria's call was from Stein. "I'm taking everyone out for lunch at the Grandeur Banquet Hall, eighty-eighth floor of The Crescent Moon Hotel. You should come too," Stein said.
