The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge novel Chapter 373

“I think your take on this is off. If Mr. Langford really wanted Ms. Marchand to represent The Langford Group, he wouldn’t have let Mrs. Langford get involved.”

“They must’ve plotted this together. Since they couldn’t make it today, Mrs. Langford’s lawyer and assistant are representing The Langford Group at the press conference.”

“I agree. Honestly, The Langford Group is way too big a corporation to send someone like Ms. Marchand—who doesn’t even have any official status—as their representative.”

“Who would’ve thought, huh? Turns out Ms. Marchand is actually the other woman. I used to see her as some kind of role model for women—thought she was really inspirational.”

Everyone had an opinion.

Victoria just smiled at the gossip.

Curtis hadn’t taken his eyes off Victoria since the event ended. Truth be told, he was skeptical about her supposed friendship with Mrs. Langford. If Victoria really was that close to Mrs. Langford, why bother applying for a low-level clerical job at Quantum Core Technologies in the first place? Mrs. Langford could’ve easily placed her in one of McNeil’s other companies. Besides, Victoria had put up with more than her share of trouble here. If Mrs. Langford was really looking out for her, would she have allowed Violet to make her life so difficult?

Having known McNeil for years, Curtis had only ever heard rumors about Mrs. Langford—never met her in person. Now, apparently, Victoria was her close friend? He found the whole thing more than a little suspicious.

But Curtis wasn’t about to pry. He knew that even if he asked, Victoria probably wouldn’t tell him the truth.

Still, this mysterious Mrs. Langford—McNeil’s enigmatic wife—had finally piqued even his curiosity.

“All right, enough about other people,” Ailie interjected, rescuing Victoria from the relentless speculation. “Tonight’s our company’s game launch party—we should be celebrating Ms. Turner and Mr. Garcia!”

Ailie’s timing was perfect. Any more drinks, and if people kept going on about Mrs. Langford, Ailie herself might have started ranting about McNeil.

“Exactly!” someone chimed in. “Ailie’s right—this is our night. Let’s raise a glass to Ms. Turner and Mr. Garcia!”
