The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge

Chapter 402

Victoria ended the video call with a calm, unreadable expression, leaving McNeil sitting in his chair for what felt like an eternity.

It wasn't until his phone rang, jolting him back to reality, that he realized Victoria was already gone.

After the call, McNeil boarded his private jet and flew straight to Starfall City, feeling utterly defeated. He knew, deep down, that he had lost Victoria for good this time. He'd thought he wouldn't care, but the ache in his chest told a different story.

Meanwhile, Violet spent the entire day at V&S Group, restless and uneasy. She tried to throw herself into work, but couldn't stop watching for any shift in McNeil's attitude toward her.

She had hoped that, after his breakup with Victoria, McNeil's feelings for her would quickly grow. But ever since they'd returned from the hospital, he hadn't so much as called her.

Violet couldn't help but wonder where things had gone wrong. She'd tried reaching out to McNeil several times, but he always claimed to be too busy to meet. In the end, she had no choice but to let it go.

That morning, when Violet arrived at the office, her secretary informed her that Mr. Miller from Golden Era Enterprises had come to see her.
