The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge

Chapter 280

Victoria woke up naturally, sunlight streaming through the window. By the time she wandered into the kitchen, Haley had already finished making breakfast.

Yasmine was waiting nearby, ready to drive her to the office as soon as she finished eating.

Victoria scrolled through her phone while picking at her toast. The morning news was everywhere her social media feed and every major outlet were ablaze.

The headlines all focused on the same story: Quantum Core Technologies' VP, Violet, had been attacked on her way home late last night. There was no mention of the Formula One racer.

Instead, every article seemed determined to play up the drama between Violet and McNeil, painting them as a passionate couple caught up in a lovers' quarrel that led to Violet storming out of the car. Then, in a twist fit for a movie, McNeil had swooped in and rescued her from a deranged attacker.

The comments section was on fire.

Some joked that Mr. Langford would have to sleep on the couch or worse, grovel for forgiveness-when he got home. Others, dripping with sarcasm, speculated that Violet had picked that dangerous stretch of road on purpose, just so she could make Mr. Langford worry.

Any negative comments about Violet were quickly buried and deleted.
