The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge novel Chapter 280

Victoria woke up naturally, sunlight streaming through the window. By the time she wandered into the kitchen, Haley had already finished making breakfast.

Yasmine was waiting nearby, ready to drive her to the office as soon as she finished eating.

Victoria scrolled through her phone while picking at her toast. The morning news was everywhere—her social media feed and every major outlet were ablaze.

The headlines all focused on the same story: Quantum Core Technologies' VP, Violet, had been attacked on her way home late last night. There was no mention of the Formula One racer.

Instead, every article seemed determined to play up the drama between Violet and McNeil, painting them as a passionate couple caught up in a lovers' quarrel that led to Violet storming out of the car. Then, in a twist fit for a movie, McNeil had swooped in and rescued her from a deranged attacker.

The comments section was on fire.

Some joked that Mr. Langford would have to sleep on the couch—or worse, grovel for forgiveness—when he got home. Others, dripping with sarcasm, speculated that Violet had picked that dangerous stretch of road on purpose, just so she could make Mr. Langford worry.

Any negative comments about Violet were quickly buried and deleted.

Most people online were simply soaking up the gossip, calling Violet and McNeil the perfect couple and swooning over their devotion to each other.

Standing beside Victoria, Yasmine stole a glance at her boss's phone. She'd seen the news herself.

She watched Victoria's face for any sign of emotion, but her boss remained completely unruffled. At first, Yasmine had even wondered if yesterday's "incident" was something Victoria had orchestrated herself, but it turned out to be nothing more than an unexpected mishap.

From her very first day working for Victoria, Yasmine had realized her boss was anything but ordinary.

She trusted Victoria completely, but when she saw the video of Violet herself denying that she was "Vivian," she couldn't help but be shocked. After all, Violet was famous—on both sides of the Atlantic.
