Queen Of Revenge And Glory (Victoria and Jackson) novel Chapter 234

hapter 234

As Victoria stepped down to the first floor, Justin sneered, “Victoria Binder, what’s your game? Are you trying to raise the price? Do you even have that kind of money? What, are you planning to sell off Binder Medical?”

Victoria smiled faintly and said, “No, I’m actually the original author of Chasing the Dream, Viara I simply don’t intend to sell it to you.”

“What?”

The entire room was stunned.

“You mean you’re Viara?”

The live stream chat went wild, with everyone frantically trying to figure out if Victoria was really telling the truth.

Nathan frowned.

“Don’t be ridiculous. You’re Viara?” Marty scoffed, like he’d just heard the funniest thing ever. “So you’re saying you organized all this?”

“Yeah,” Victoria admitted without a hint of hesitation.

Marty kept pressing, “If you’re really Viara, why not just hand the rights straight to your own company, Brightstar Entertainment? Why go through all this? Are you just playing us?”

‘I only meant to put Simon in his place at first. Who knew your guy, Nathan, would end up the one getting embarrassed?” Victoria said matter–of–factly, showing no trace of guilt.

When Justin and Marty heard Victoria’s words, their expressions turned sour. The way she said it made it sound like they were his underlings.

Even though the words stung, Justin kept his mouth shut, not wanting to risk upsetting Nathan.

I get it. Mr. Clark’s trying to send me a warning–blocking any resources Starlight Entertainment might land. This whole ight over Chasing the Dream rights battle is just step one,” Victoria said, clicking her tongue and mocking them. “Too bad it ooks like you’ve already tripped over yourselves.

200 million for the rights? Mr. Clark really knows how to flex, huh? You really thought that price locked it in, didn’t you‘ t bet you figured Viara was already celebrating, thinking she’d struck it rich for life.”

Justin’s face froze, clearly embarrassed at being called out.

Victoria just smiled. “Sorry, but that kind of cash doesn’t impress me.”

The more she spoke, the more pissed off Nathan looked.

[Wait, seriously? Victoria Binder is actually Viara?]

[If she’s really Viara, that’s legendary! Not only is she a music genius, she’s a literary legend too!)

[She just turned down 200 million dollars for the rights? Money means nothing to her!

“Whether you’re really Viara or not is still up for debate!” Justin shot a look at Beatrice, the host on stage Is she really Vrart

Beatrice glanced down at Victoria and nodded. “I’m Viara’s editor. I’ve never actually met the legend herselt, but the contract

does list Victoria Binder as the author”

Victoria took her time, pulling two documents from her folder. “I always write my first draft by hand,‘ she explained Heres the original manuscript for Chasing the Dream, and this is the publishing contract for the book.”

Marty stood up and took the papers from Victoria. After reading through them, he had no more doubts–Victoria really was Viara.

One by one, the other entertainment company reps stepped forward to check the documents for themselves.

The representative from Sky Media was at a loss for words. “Victoria, that’s ridiculous. If you’re really Viara, you’d obviously keep the rights with Brightstar Entertainment. Why go through all this trouble with a big event? You’re just wasting everyone’s time.”

The Starlight Pictures rep chimed in, “Yeah, this is way out of line!”

The smaller entertainment companies joined in. “You’re just wasting our time. Don’t think you can get away with this just because Jackson’s backing you. You’d better give us an answer today.”

Meanwhile.

Up on the second–floor corridor, Sophie’s opinion of Victoria shifted again. “Victoria’s approach is actually pretty interesting,” she remarked.

Everyone from the private rooms had spilled out into the second–floor hallway, eager to catch the action.

Felix leaned on the railing with one hand and pushed up his glasses with the other. He turned to Jackson, who was sitting in his wheelchair nearby, and grinned.

Jackson, Ms. Binder’s getting ganged up on by all these companies. Aren’t you going to step in and help her out?” he teased

Jackson just smiled, totally unfazed. “No need. Vickie’s not like Pierre. She doesn’t need someone cleaning up her mess every ime she stirs things up.”

Pierre was speechless.

Felix placed his hand over Pierre’s. “Jackson, you’re awfully calm–it really shows how much trust you have in Ms. Binder But someone who didn’t know better might think you don’t care about your fiancée at all.”

jackson smiled leisurely. “If you really want to know how much I care about Vickie, you’re welcome to find out”

Felix didn’t say anything else.

Pierre let out a cold snort. ‘Does he really think I wouldn’t dare make a move on Victoria?‘ he thought

I just haven’t gotten my shot yet!

Felix glanced away and said in a low voice, “Victoria put on this whole show just to put Simon in his place Now she’s keeping the Chasing the Dream rights with Brightstar Entertainment. Sure, she stopped Nathan from grabbing her resources, but she’s got a lot of companies pissed off now. It’s not going to be easy for her to smooth things over

Pierre curled his lip. “She really thinks the world revolves around her So what if she’s Viara, that big name author? She mist went and pissed off half the entertainment industry at once. Let’s see how she plans to dig herself out of this

Sophie’s friend joked, “Good thing your idiot brother isn’t here, or he’d be down there playing hero and arguing with everyone on her behalf.”

Sophie laughed. “Seriously! I’m really curious how Victoria’s going to get herself out of this mess.”

Then she glanced over at Oliver from the Cooke family, who was standing not far away.

D5 vouchers

She’d heard through the grapevine that Oliver had refused to inherit the Cooke family fortune and instead gone into the webnovel world–actually making a name for himself. ‘Is Victoria planning to pitch Oliver’s books to these companies to smooth things over?

That’s definitely possible. Oliver’s work might not be as popular as Viara’s, but it still holds value. The problem is, adaptations of male–led webnovels rarely become breakout hits compared to female–led ones. She thought.

Even as over twenty entertainment companies criticized her, Victoria remained completely unfazed. She didn’t back down -instead, she clapped back at them.

“If you’d offered a decent price or had a pitch that actually convinced me, I might’ve considered selling the rights to Chasing the Dream. But at this event, not only did you lose out to Gale Entertainment, some of you tried to downplay my book just to drive the price down. And some even suggested giving the heroine’s best moments to the male lead.

“I’m not just the boss of Brightstar Entertainment—I’m an author who truly values her work. Honestly, most of you didn’t make the cut for me today.”

Seeing that she not only refused to apologize or admit any fault but instead started calling them out, some of the entertainment companies were livid. Just as they were about to come down on Victoria even harder, she spoke again.

Honestly, three of you actually stood out today for how genuine you were. I might consider working with you,” she said.
