The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge novel Chapter 425

“Brother-in-law?”

No one seemed sure who blurted it out, but the moment Lyndon shot them a deadly glare, everyone instantly clammed up.

McNeil rolled the phrase around in his mind. Brother-in-law? Who’s the sister in question? And what’s up with this whole odd crowd?

“We came to see you, boss. How’s my godson doing today? Was he good? Didn’t kick too much, did he?”

“We brought a ton of toys, and some racing videos too. He can watch all the classics, so when he’s born, we’ll take him straight to the racetrack.”

McNeil listened as they all called Victoria “boss,” his eyes scanning the room in search of her.

“Who exactly are you people? And who invited you here?” he demanded, his face darkening.

Lyndon’s lips curled in a mocking smile. “Does it matter who we are? What matters is that you’re the ex-husband now, aren’t you?”

He clapped a hand on McNeil’s shoulder—just for a second—because in the next moment, Victoria appeared, practically ushered in by the whole group like some kind of reluctant celebrity.

The gifts piled up at her feet, threatening to swallow her whole.

“Boss, look—brand new games, and a limited-edition racecar model!”

“Mine’s even better—open mine first!”

Victoria’s head spun at the sight. “I told you all to stop bringing more stuff. The spare room’s already overflowing.”

“No way,” someone countered. “Once our godson is born, he’ll wake up every day to a pack of racing-obsessed uncles. He’s bound to be the greatest driver the world’s ever seen.”

One of them had already made himself comfortable at the dining table, waving McNeil over.

“Hey, ex-husband, come join us. I’ve heard your name for years, but this is the first time I’ve seen you in person. That’s something, huh?”

It was impossible to tell if he was being sincere or just taking a jab.
