The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge

Chapter 449

Victoria didn't dare lower her silk scarf until she spotted Ms. Turner. Even then, she only let it slip just enough to reveal her crimson lips.

"There's no need to be nervous," Victoria said quietly. "This is Evermore City. No one knows who you are here."

The woman glanced at her, the tension in her shoulders easing just a fraction. She pulled off her sunglasses, dug into her purse, and handed Victoria a thick stack of photographs.

"Ms. Turner, I had a private investigator tail him. Thank God someone warned me, or everything would have gone down the drain."

Victoria barely glanced at the photos, uninterested in seeing the sordid scenes they contained.

Across from her sat Simms' current girlfriend—the one carrying his child.

"It doesn't have to be this way," the woman murmured. "I don't even want to keep this baby, but you need me to make it look like someone forced me to lose it."

She looked at Victoria, fear flickering in her eyes. "You mean... let Yulia catch me? No way. She'd kill me for real. I've heard she's already hired a hitman to take me out. Ms. Turner, I just wanted to earn some money-not lose my life for it."

Victoria's tone was calm and reassuring. "Someone's watching out for you. Trust me, all I need is for you to drive a wedge between Simms and Yulia. This is a civilized country-she'll only run into con artists, not assassins."

Yulia had spent nearly two million trying to put a price on this woman's head, but Victoria had already made arrangements. The coward who took the money was long gone-no one was actually going to kill for Yulia.
