Chapter 366

Victoria requested a week off from Curtis, and he agreed without hesitation.

She also told McNeil that she hadn't been feeling well lately and wouldn't be able to pick up Gwyneth. McNeil knew she'd been worn out from the recent trip to Evermore City and could see she was genuinely exhausted, so he dropped the pretense of using Gwyneth to keep Victoria cooped up at home.

Her days quickly settled into a quiet routine: eating, sleeping, and sifting through the files Yasmine sent her. Victoria carefully organized all the useful information, locked it away in her private folder, and guarded it like a secret.

That evening, the IT department was having a team dinner. George called to ask if she was free to join them for dinner.

After all, everyone understood that VP Turner's trip to Evermore City was for the company's next big government drone project—a major deal.

The entire staff agreed that VP Turner worked herself to the bone, constantly juggling the demands of their most important client.
