Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

Lionel's anger was evident in his expression. Sensing this, Victoria's eyes flickered with emotion. She then threw herself into his arms, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Lionel, I don't know what to do anymore! I thought that even if Wilson had Yvette by his side, 1 would still have a place in the Quinn family. But now, he despises me. Even Mrs. Quinn Senior and the others are becoming increasingly cold toward me!"

When Victoria suddenly embraced him, Lionel was first shocked. As he came to his senses, he got flustered. His face was flushed beet red. Victoria had taken the initiative to hug him!

"My family is gone, and I've always thought of the Quinns as my own. But now..." She paused for a moment, and then her sobs grew louder. "If I'd known things would turn out this way, I wouldn't have gotten treated overseas. Death would have been a better option. At least I would have been at peace."

Lionel looked troubled. "Ms. Olson, how could you say that? You have to live a long and happy life." Seeing Victoria cry like this, Lionel felt increasingly sorry for her. As expected, his loathing for Yvette intensified. It was all because of her that Victoria was so upset! Victoria's clear, innocent doe eyes brimmed with tears. She looked incredibly vulnerable, as though she needed comfort.

Victoria sniffled before muttering, "Yet, here I am-nothing but a nuisance to them. I might as well just die-"

"Ms. Olson, don't say that!" Lionel quickly interrupted her, not letting her say anything

inauspicious. He spoke with a tone of assurance. "Ms. Olson, you must live healthily and happily. Leave these matters to me!"

Last time, he had carefully planned to have Yvette drown in the river. But he didn't expect those two incompetent idiots to fail and almost get caught in the process.

If he hadn't silenced them in advance, the cat would have been out of the bag.

With these thoughts in mind, Lionel's gaze grew increasingly dark, the murderous intent in his eyes intensifying. This time, he would take matters into his own hands. He absolutely had to eliminate Yvette for Victoria's sake. Seeing his expression, Victoria knew she had achieved her objective. A satisfied smirk played on her lips. Lionel was truly a stupid yet useful tool. Now, all she needed to do was wait for him to get rid of that bitch for her! Chapter 669

This way, she could both complete the task assigned by the organization and win Wilson over. It was a perfect plan!

"Mr. Phillip, there's a problem!"

Xavier's subordinate rushed into the hall with an anxious expression on his face.

"The shipment we were moving through Jubilife has been confiscated! Even after we revealed our

identity, they still refuse to return it

It was well known that the Dark Organization was a force to be reckoned with worldwide. Normally, no one would dare to offend them. This was the first time they had faced a situation like this. Even after revealing their identity, their goods were still seized. Hearing this, Xavier let out a cold sneer, muttering, Wilson sure moves fast..."

"Mr. Phillip, what did you say?" The subordinate couldn't quite hear him.

Xavier composed himself, returning to his usual cold demeanor. He said with a measured tone, Never mind. If they want to keep it, let them have it."

"Mr. Phillip, what are you saying?" The subordinate could hardly believe his ears.

He widened his eyes in disbelief and added urgently, "Mr. Phillip, this shipment is extremely valuable. We spent a fortune on it. If the president finds out, she'll surely be furious!"

After all, their president loved money more than anything!

"I have my ways."

Xavier smirked, pulled out his phone, and called Yvette. It was time to make Wilson fall out of favor with her.noveldrama

Yvette was listening intently to Martha's stories about Wilson's younger years. Her expression tensed when she saw Xavier's call come in.
