Chapter 291


    “Of course not! I may not be very exposed, but I still heard about an eye for an eye and a tooth for a


    tooth! I will make that old man pay for what he did!” swore Victory.


    “Do not exaggerate.” Seeing her expression, I was startled as she reminded me of my past.


    “Lily, don’t worry. I know what I am doing. I have a n, and to be honest, I made my move. These


    idiots will taste their own poison very soon.”


    “What did you do?”


    “I can’t tell you now, but you’ll understand when the timees. Lily, I never thought I’d share my n


    with you, but since you saw me today, I really didn’t want you to misunderstand me. me for being that


    kind of woman. Initially, I nned to take this secret to the grave, but now that you know it, I hope you’ll


    remember that no matter what I’ve done, I won’t do anything to harm you.”


    In the end, Victoria didn’t sidestep what she was doing, and I didn’t insist on getting to the heart of the


    matter. Frankly, I still didn’t believe every word she said as I still had my doubts about her. In this world,


    no one was obligated to be nice to anyone, especially when Victoria and I were neither parents nor


    considered close friends. If we were ever rted, it would only be employment rtionships.


    However, I didn’t pay her, so she had no reason to remain loyal to me.


    Lying in bed, I tossed and turned, but I still couldn’t sleep. While I had my doubts about Victoria, she at


    least reminded me of something important – Robin was involved in a conspiracy against me. With that


    Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    thought in mind, I was thinking about how to get revenge on him. If it was really Robin who bought the


    abortion pills, I might just make a big scene out of it.


    With that, I was determined to investigate Robin’s whereabouts toe up with a n against him. I


    ended up falling asleep around midnight. In the morning I was woken up by the phone and wondered


    who to call at this hour.


    Burying my head under the nket, I decided to ignore the call. However, after a brief moment, the


    phone rang again. And it didn’t look like it was going to stop anytime soon.


    Although reluctant, I got out of the nket and answered the ringing call. “Hello…”


    “Lily! You are in the headlines!” Isabe’s high-pitched voice sounded from the other end and it hurt my


    ear.


    Stunned for a moment, she asked, “What?”


    “I said, you and Dn made headlines!” Shocked, I sat up in bed.


    “Where did you see that?”


    “It’s headline entertainment news. That dress you wore is just beautiful!”


    “Shit!” Without feeling an ounce of excitement, I found it disastrous to be in the spotlight at this


    moment. If Carson minus this news, with Jolene fanning the mes, he would undeniably suspect there


    was something going on between Dn and me.


    “What’s so f*cking about it?” Isabe asked confused.


    “Jolene is sure to make a big fuss of it!”


    “Don’t worry. Her face has been pixted. I only knew it was you because of the dress.”


    “Really?”


    “Clear! Why would I lie to you?” Feeling euphoric, Isabe eximed, “Oh, you know what the


    headlines said?”
