President’s Secret Obsession With Ex-wife

She looked around with Charles William again. He was becoming more and more satisfied with her explanations.

He also wanted to introduce Victoria to some resources.

“Do you know Richard Steele of Three-Beam Group? His son is also in the design business, I heard that he is a little famous, and he is the same age as you. I will introduce you to each other. You are both in the same circle, and you have something in common, don’t you think so?”

Victoria was just about to decline when she heard Charles William add, “Well, speak of the devil, Lucas Steele, you’re coming to see the show today, too?”

Victoria followed his line of sight and sure enough spotted Lucas Steele a few paces away.

His face was changed to normal by now and he walked over with a smile, “Hello Uncle William! You’re here too.”

Lucas Steele looked at Victoria, who stood beside him, with a burning sparkle in her eyes.

“The designer you had before, was Poppy too?”

“Yes, that’s her.”

Lucas Steele walked over to Victoria, his tone familiar, “With Nick’s order, Poppy has blocked two of my orders, so it looks like we’re really meant to be.”

Victoria faintly frowned, and heard Charles William on the side say, “You young guys have common topics together. I’ve finished looking at these paintings today. Plus you take good care of Poppy on my behalf, remember to be considerate.”

Lucas Steele smiled a little as Charles William walked away and offered Victoria, “Join us for dinner later?”

Victoria thought Lucas Steele was really a bit thick-skinned, had he forgotten about that kick earlier so quickly?

She deliberately turned her gaze away from him, with a bit of careless contempt.

“Mr. Steele is well? So soon?”

Lucas Steele leaned in close to her and said in a flirty tone, “Good or bad, just try it.”

“…”

Before Victoria could speak, a young girl’s voice came from the side.

“Hey, you!”

The voice was full of condescending impatience, and the girl clasped her hands over her chest as she looked at Victoria. In her eyes Victoria was wearing a somewhat poor outfit.

There was not a recognisable brand on her body, she was considered to be from a bad background.

“Did you just steal my bracelet? Get it out or I’m calling the police.”

While the girl spoke, her eyes looked through her to Lucas Steele with a twinkle in them, and when she looked at her again, it became a vicious gesture.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Victoria frowned, was this Lucas Steele’s admirer?

“What bracelet?”

“Stop pretending, that’s the new bracelet I’m wearing today. Since this morning, you’re the only one who’s been in contact with me, who else could it be if not you? This bracelet is worth three hundred thousand dollars. I think you’re just seeing money!”

The girl seemed a little aggressive and unforgiving.

Victoria sort of realized that the bracelet was just an excuse and what was really upsetting was that she was standing too close to Lucas Steele.

“I didn’t take your bracelet. If you don’t believe me, check the surveillance.”

“Don’t you dare deny it!” The girl sneered.

She was already upset when she just heard that Emily had taken first place in the school, squeezing her out of her spot, and she didn’t expect to see the guy she liked hooking up with a woman she knew.

“I’m a student of Veridian City University’s School of Fine Arts, and the school has the right to protect my interests, if you don’t admit it, I’ll notify the leadership right now and have security throw you out!”

Lucas Steele stood to one side, and seeing Victoria being given such a hard time, didn’t immediately speak up for her. He wanted her to come forward and beg for him when she was most helpless, and then he would be the hero. Wouldn’t he just take her down in that way?

The corners of his mouth curved as he stood watching the show.

He knew that the girl, who was from the Reynolds family, as the top four families in Veridian City, did have enough backbone to find trouble with Victoria.

Chloe Reynolds’ eyes flicked around to see Olivia Thornton, who had already reorganized.

She had a thick foundation smeared on her face to cover up the woeful mess.

Chloe Reynolds beckoned, “Mrs. Thornton, you’re just in time! This woman stole my bracelet, what is the school supposed to do with people like that?”

Victoria raised an eyebrow and looked at Olivia Thornton, who had changed her outfit, and the corner of her mouth curved.

As if irritated by the smile, Olivia Thornton only felt the smell of toilet water still lingering in her nostrils as her stomach convulsed again.

She pretended not to recognize Victoria and waved directly at the security guard standing at the door.

“Since she’s a thief, let’s just hand her over to the police for disposal.”
