Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

Yvette's attention was entirely focused on Martha, who was being resuscitated inside. She had no mind for anything else. "I'm going to check on Grandma first."

With just one look at her, Wilson's earlier anger subsided, replaced with warmth. "Alright."

As she watched Yvette put on her surgical gown and head inside without a backward glance, Victoria clenched her hands at her sides, her sharp nails nearly digging into her palms.

She had intentionally led the manor's staff to view her as the future lady of the Quinn family household. After all, any woman would feel threatened by a challenge to her status and react with outrage. By contrast, this was supposed to make Victoria appear even more pure and kind.

But why didn't Yvette care at all? Not even enough to get angry or lose her temper! Her plan was completely ruined!

"Wilson, you must be tired from traveling back so quickly! Let me get you something to eat!"

Victoria quickly hid her dark emotions and smiled sweetly at him, a look that usually pleased men.noveldrama

But Wilson didn't even spare her a glance. His attractive, thin lips parted as he uttered a single icy word. "Leave."

"Wilson... Did I do something wrong? Please don't make me go. I want to wait here; I won't feel at ease unless I know Mrs. Quinn Senior is alright!"

Victoria bit her lip in an innocent, pitiful manner. She was practically begging for sympathy.

Seeing Wilson's demeanor growing colder, Samuel understood that he was losing his patience. If this continued and he truly became angry, things wouldn't end well for anyone.

Wilson was already in a bad mood, and here she was, tearfully pestering him- unlike Yvette, who would never act so weak!

Besides, Wilson already had someone by his side, yet she kept trying to get closer, ignoring boundaries.

"Ms. Olson, please leave immediately." Samuel had addressed her respectfully, but there was no hint of it in his voice.

Victoria could sense the threat

radiating from Wilson, and an

down her spine. She clenched fier hands tighter in fear. Conte

"I will go, but please inform me when Mrs. Quinn Senior wakes up, Mr. Jackson."

She said it in such a pitiful way, yet Samuel didn't respond, clearly showing his dislike for her.

Unable to suppress her frustration, Victoria turned and left, the venomous glint in her eyes deepening.

Once she had Wilson, she swore she'd make that damn Samuel pay dearly!

Seeing her leaving in such a sad state, Jimmy couldn't help but follow to console her. "Ms. Olson, don't be upset. We all know how kind-hearted you are! How could Mr. Quinn treat you like this?"

Victoria was so sweet and kind. Why was Wilson so harsh with her?

"Mr. Lacroix, I'm alright!" Victoria replied in a pitiful tone, displaying a delicate and wounded expression. "Wilson already has a fiancée now, so maybe he's worried Yvie Would get jealous if he's too nice to me!"

"Oh, I see!"

Upon hearing this, Jimmy's impression of Yvette dropped instantly.

"I used to think Ms. Murray wasn't the petty or jealous type, but it turns out I was wrong!"

Noticing she had successfully tarnished Yvette's image, Victoria's eyes gleamed with satisfaction.

She wanted everyone to despise that bitch!
