"I can't bet on whether she has a recording or not. Victor has a lot to offer to my father's election. The four families of River City are all under his control. The consequences of hurting his wife are not something I can't afford. Even my father respects him.
I'm not willing to let her go like this, but I could do nothing to her tonight."
"As for you, are you sure you don't know Eden? Dulcie, don't let me know that you're using me. Otherwise, you know what I'll do, right?" Carlotta looked at her sharply.
She hated betrayal the most.
Her sister was hypocritical. When they made mistakes together, she was often the one who took the blame.
Dulcie panicked a little inwardly, but it was quickly covered up by her smile.
"Carlotta, Eden has been trying to sow discord between us. Don't trust her words."
"Carlotta, we've been friends for more than ten years."
Carlotta laughed coldly with an unpleasant expression. "Dulcie. I hope you won't make use of me like an idiot. Otherwise, you'll be screwed."
Dulcie felt a bit nervous.
She was furious. She had planned to disgrace Eden tonight but in the end she almost lost Carlotta as a friend.
She comforted Carlotta with a smile. "Carlotta, you are thinking too much. I will send you down first. We'll have plenty of opportunities to target Eden later."
"Okay." Carlotta gave her a deep look. After all, they had been friends for many years, so she chose to believe Dulcie and hate that arrogant Eden.
They took a few steps forward.
They suddenly saw a man standing in the corner.
It was a man who looked so indifferent that the air around him suddenly turned cold.
They did not see clearly that the man was Victor until he took a few steps forward to stand in the light.
They were so frightened that their pupils contracted.
Why was Victor here?
They had the same question in their minds.
Victor looked at Dulcie's pale face with an icy gaze, "It seems that last night didn't teach you enough that you forgot it in one day. Did I not warn you not to mess with my wife again?"
The two women heard his words clearly and felt his fearful hostility and rage.
Dulcie's earlier domineering appearance disappeared instantly, for she had experienced his cruel means last night.
He was powerful in this city.
It didn't mean that she would be afraid, but at this moment, she was really a little scared.
She lowered her head and bit her lips without saying a word.
All her arguments to Carlotta just now were in vain.
Carlotta swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Why was she so unlucky tonight?
She never bothered with Victor's business in River City for years, simply because she knew that going against Victor would inevitably lead to his crueler revenge.
This man was by no means a "good person".
He had always been a fearful person in River City.
"Mr. Alwynn, what do you mean?" She looked sideways at Dulcie again.
Victor sneered, "What do I mean? Why don't you ask your good friend about it? Even if you were used by her, you Yates family is going to pay for messing with my wife."
After finishing his words, Victor left with an elegant and domineering pace.
Even the sight of his back made people feel incomparably cold and arrogant.
