The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge novel Chapter 371

“Mr. Garcia, I’m Johnny, legal counsel for Mrs. Langford. This is Miss Yasmine, Mrs. Langford’s assistant. Today’s the joint game launch for Vertex Dynamics and Quantum Core Technologies. Mr. Langford couldn’t make it, so Mrs. Langford sent us to represent them both at the event.”

Curtis’s mind raced, turning Johnny’s words over and over. Seeing Violet here was one thing, but what Johnny just said made everything all the more bewildering.

Violet instantly grasped the significance of Johnny’s arrival. Her eyes darted to Victoria, her usually composed face twisting in disbelief.

“Victoria, have you lost your mind…?”

She never imagined that the event meant to give her the spotlight in front of the media and the whole of Starfall City would take such a turn.

Victoria’s expression remained cool and distant, giving Violet’s outburst no acknowledgment.

Curtis, meanwhile, was still fixated on the words “Mrs. Langford” that Johnny had uttered, barely noticing the tension crackling between Violet and Victoria.

“Mrs. Langford’s orders…?” Curtis repeated the words under his breath, chewing them over.

The media picked up on every word.

“Mrs. Langford? Mr. Langford is married?”

“Wasn’t this supposed to be a simple game launch? Where did Mrs. Langford come from all of a sudden?”

Violet and her entourage stood frozen, as if their shoes had been nailed to the floor.

Yasmine turned to Violet. “Excuse me, could you please make way?”

Violet glared back. “That’s impossible. McNeil would never let his wife represent Vertex Dynamics…”

Yasmine met her gaze coolly. “And you are? Mr. and Mrs. Langford have always been inseparable. The Langford Group was founded by both of them, side by side. I’m here on Mrs. Langford’s behalf—and on behalf of both of them. With legal representation present, I’d suggest you be careful with your words; we reserve the right to take legal action against any inappropriate remarks.”

Victoria’s eyes swept over Violet with a hint of disdain. Violet saw it, but didn’t dare react.

Only Violet knew the truth: Victoria was Mrs. Langford. Sitting front and center, Victoria watched the commotion unfold as if none of it concerned her, not uttering a word.

She was Mrs. Langford, but had sent her lawyer and assistant to make a show of authority. Victoria hadn’t revealed her identity, and Violet dared not expose her.

A sudden, burning humiliation washed over Violet. She felt like she’d been played for a fool; her cheeks flushed bright red.

Her staff, clueless about what was truly happening, grew impatient and shot frustrated looks at Victoria.

“Could you let Ms. Marchand have her seat, please?” one of them said.

Victoria rose slowly, stepping aside from her seat.

Violet’s current assistant and secretary moved to guide her forward, but two security guards blocked Violet and her group from getting any closer.

Yasmine and Johnny took the seats beside Victoria, with a nameplate reading “Vertex Dynamics” in front of Yasmine.
