When Mr. Kim was seen jumping, Victoria immediately stood up and gave him a kick in the stomach. Unsatisfied, she kicked Mr. Kim’s face again. Irritated and unable to contain herself, Victoria began punching Mr. Kim’s face. Mr. Kim’s face started to bleed, and he got a black eye. “Enough, I’ll sign, I’ll sign,” he pleaded, raising his hands.
Victoria stopped before grabbing Mr. Kim by the hair. “I hate when my time is wasted. If you were going to sign anyway, you should have just done it earlier,” she said, pulling Mr. Kim in front of the contract. “Sign!” commanded Victoria with a dominant aura.
Mr. Kim shuddered and immediately signed the contract, despite his reluctance and resentment, he had no choice but to sign as he was afraid Victoria might beat him even more severely.
Victoria smiled, “Good, you’re actually easy to deal with. If only you had signed earlier, you wouldn’t have been beaten up,” before releasing Mr. Kim and leaving the office with the contract.
Upon returning to the company to submit the signed contract, before he could speak, Erica scolded her, “Hey Victoria, why did you come back? Shouldn’t you have gone to have the contract signed?”
“Yes, the chairman needs that contract, so you need to get it signed, or else you’ll be held responsible for the losses,” added Kc.
Victoria smiled before slapping the contract she was holding on Kc’s face. “Oh, here’s the contract. I’m going home now.”
Kc was taken aback by the sudden slap of the contract on her face. She grabbed the contract, about to get angry at Victoria, but upon opening it, she was stunned. Erica grinned after seeing Kc’s reaction before taking the contract. “Victoria, do you know the consequences of not signing-”
“What?! Signed?!” she exclaimed after seeing the contract was signed. Johanna was also shocked, standing up from her seat. “Impossible!” she said, approaching and taking the contract. She shook her head in disbelief at the truth in front of her. “This… this is impossible! How did you do this, Victoria?!”
“I left the company first, then walked to the other building, just a simple walk and you’ll reach the BG Group, I entered there and went to Mr. Kim’s office, I had him sign it, and then he did-”
“Shut up, Victoria! That’s not what I meant, what means did you use?!” Johanna said in annoyance.
“What means? What do you know about means?” Victoria grinned. “Don’t tell me you’re doing this kind of sus tactics?”
Johanna got angry. “Victoria, what are you talking about?”
Victoria shrugged and didn’t say anything. Manager Jen came out upon hearing the commotion and seeing Victoria.
“Victoria, did you do what I asked-” Before she could finish, Victoria took the contract from Johanna’s hand and threw it at Manager Jen. “If you don’t need me and nothing else, I’m leaving,” she said, grabbing her things and leaving to go home.
Manager Jen looked at the contract, surprised to see a real signature and not a fake one. She took out her phone from her pocket and called Mr. Kim, “Mr. Kim, what happened? Why didn’t you-?”
But before she could finish, she heard Mr. Kim’s angry shout from the other end of the phone. “Manager Jen! Don’t send back the woman you sent just now!”
Manager Jen is confused, “Mr. Kim what happened?”
“Don’t ask me anymore, goodbye!” He said coldly before ending the call.
…
In the evening, Victoria sat in a chair while accompanying Lucas in the study room, which was in the partition adjacent to their bedroom. She smiled as she watched Lucas diligently studying the current happenings in the company. When Lucas finished, he straightened up and sat beside Victoria, “How was your presentation earlier?”
Smiling, Victoria replied, “It went well, but there are really some people with malicious intentions.”
“What do you mean? Was there something that happened in your department earlier?” Lucas asked curiously.
Victoria nodded, “It was just a small matter that I was able to resolve and they paid up. The department manager was being unreasonable, wanting to assign the project given to me and give credit to someone else.”
“Do you want me to remove these people?” Lucas’ expression changed upon hearing Victoria’s words.
Shaking her head, Victoria said, “It’s not necessary, my identity might be exposed. This one person is pretending to be me, claiming to be your wife. That’s why these gullible fools believed in her nonsense.”
“So, if you remove them from their positions, her identity will be revealed, and it will be known that I am your real wife,” Victoria said with a pout.
Lucas smiled, “And who is this audacious person pretending to be you?”
“A distant relative of Casella, Johanna Casella,” Victoria said.
“This woman, really?!” Lucas said coldly before remembering something.
Victoria noticed the anger in Lucas’ eyes, so she hugged him, “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it. Let’s face them together when the time is right,” she said, then kissed Lucas on the cheek.
Lucas nodded before kissing Victoria on the lips, and the two embraced and spent the night together.
The next morning, Lucas went to the company early to attend to some matters. Victoria took out her old bag and saw her pendant, which she put on again. It had been three years since she last wore it, as she had been studying abroad and trying on different accessories daily, so she kept this pendant aside.
Victoria left the villa and headed to the company. Her day at work went smoothly, and she wasn’t bothered by any flies in the company for the time being. Victoria was about to leave when Erica suddenly called out to her, “Hey, Victoria, Johanna wants to treat us to a high-end dinner. You’re lucky because she wants to take you to an exclusive dinner.”
Victoria wondered what these two were up to. She glanced at Johanna, who was sitting with a peculiar expression, then smiled at Erica before nodding, “Okay, since the generous princess wants to treat, I’ll go.”
Erica grinned before saying nothing and then turned back to Johanna to inform her that Victoria agreed. They planned to use this opportunity to embarrass Victoria because they thought she was a country bumpkin who had never dined in an expensive restaurant before.
Victoria texted Lucas that she would be joining the dinner with her department team.
They went to a high-end restaurant owned by the Luca Group. Victoria was familiar with the place as she had dined there with Lucas before. They entered a private room.
“Madam, aren’t we going to dine in the VIP box?” Erica asked.
Johanna thought, ‘Ambitious woman, I have limited funds now, I won’t be able to afford the meal in the VIP box.’
“Ah, maybe our princess made a mistake and got confused between VIP and Private Box,” Victoria said before Johanna could respond.
‘This peasant Victoria, what does she want?’ Johanna thought, getting annoyed.
“Oh, yes, I thought it was the VIP Box, let’s go to the other room,” she said with awkward smile, then left the box and headed to the VIP box.
They were about to be stopped by the guard at the VIP Box, but Victoria was recognized by the guard and gestured for them to be quiet, so they were allowed inside.
When they entered the VIP Box, the group marveled at the elegant design of the room. Even Manager Jen was amazed as it was her first time entering. They took a selfie and shared it on their social media.
Meanwhile, Johanna turned pale, thinking about how she would pay later as a meal in this VIP Box would cost up to $300, 000.
