The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge novel Chapter 203

Gwyneth knew there was no chance of clinging to Violet for the time being, so she obediently followed Victoria home.

She seemed a little listless, but Victoria was already handing her the tablet.

"I've set up the game you asked for," Victoria said, her tone gentle. "Want to give it a try?"

Gwyneth just shook her head, hardly interested. Back at the hospital, Violet hadn't even been able to register an account.

"It's no use. I can't play it anyway."

Victoria pulled up the game's main screen and logged in using her own account. "That's not true. Here, watch this."

She handed the tablet back, and to Gwyneth's surprise, it worked. Her eyes grew wide.

"It's working? I can really play?"

"Of course you can," Victoria replied, smiling.

Victoria let Gwyneth play on her own and headed to her study to get back to work.

Downstairs, Gwyneth's excited laughter occasionally drifted up, but Victoria remained calm and focused, her mind fully on her tasks.

Victoria's time off was almost up. Soon, she'd be back at work, juggling her job and picking Gwyneth up every day. She made sure to return to the McNeil estate on time each night to look after her daughter.

Maybe it was the distraction of the game, but Gwyneth had been especially well-behaved these days—eating meals on schedule, skipping the usual demands for snacks, finishing her homework without a fuss. Sometimes she'd beg Victoria to play the game with her, a little more clingy than usual, but Victoria almost always agreed.

Gwyneth also pleaded with her to take her to the amusement park that weekend. Victoria didn't say yes at first—she wasn't sure if she'd have to work overtime.
