Brenda’s menacing voice echoed loudly in the silent and spacious living room.
Christina calmly stared at the elegant Brenda and replied slowly, “Mrs. Lesley, you have misunderstood
me. How can I dare to lecture you, an elder? I am merely considering my own and Victoria’s future.”
Brenda sneered, “Don’t bring Victoria into this.”
The status of the Lesley family attracted flatters from many people, but since Christina married into the
Hadley family, she lacked neither status nor wealth and power. The only thing she was worried about
was the reputation of her studio.
Brenda believed that the reason Christina hired Victoria as a chief designer was simply because she
valued Victoria’s fame. Therefore, when Victoria had conflicts with her family and lost the wealth and
status provided by the Lesley family, Christina took advantage of the situation and deceived Victoria
into signing a so–called contract.
“The contract that Victoria signed with you is null and void starting today. The liquidated damages will
be borne by the Lesley family,” Brenda declared as she raised her head proudly. “I have only one
condition. Victoria and Sebastian must completely sever ties. After that, I request that you stop
disturbing her new life.”
Brenda appeared resolute and unyielding.
Christina’s gaze instantly turned cold. “Mrs. Lesley, you may not yet be aware of the true
consequences if Victoria breaches the contract with the studio.”
Brenda snorted coldly. “First, you tried to lecture me on how to handle things, and now you’re resorting
to threatening me? To put it bluntly, Mrs. Hadley, when I was your age, I had already built a thriving
beauty salon business. Being sensible and knowing when to advance and retreat is the best way to
success.”
Came prepared, Christina smiled gracefully as she revealed her trump card. “Mrs. Lesley, I’ve long
heard the inspirational story of your entrepreneurial journey when you were young.”
A disdainful smile appeared on Brenda’s lips. She had long grown tired of flattery and adulation.
Christina continued, “But I heard that you have had a few more troubles recently. There was a medical
accident at your most reputable beauty salon, and the client involved is said to come from a significant
background. After using the products from your salon, she experienced serious facial skin problems.”
Brenda’s face suddenly turned pale. This was the biggest problem she had encountered ever since she
became a successful businesswoman. She had already tried to suppress the news. How did Christina
find out about it?
“Now the customer wants to sue you and your beauty salon, and due to the political background of that
young lady, all the beauty salons under your name are under investigation. If these problems are not
handled well, both your career and the Lesley family will suffer severe consequences.”
Brenda struggled to control her anger. She nearly splashed the tea in her hand onto Christina’s face.
Eyes filled with murderous intent, she fixed her gaze on Christina’s throat.
“You investigated my secrets thoroughly just to negotiate with me, didn’t you?” Brenda seethed with
anger. “I’m very curious about how capable Sebastian is since he can persuade the esteemed Mrs.
Hadley to intervene personally on his behalf.”
The sarcasm in her words was evident.
Christina responded, “I’ve said before, Mrs. Lesley. I’m not here to threaten you. On the contrary,
considering my relationship with Victoria, I can help you solve the difficulties you’re facing.”
Brenda had approached almost everyone who could be of help, but they didn’t agree to help her
because they were all worried about getting involved and potentially causing trouble for themselves.
While Brenda was busy trying to resolve her career problems, she also had to deal with Victoria’s
relationship. She was already stretched thin.
Of course, there was a more important reason Brenda strongly opposed Victoria being with Sebastian.
She attempted to arrange a marriage between Victoria and a young man from a political family she
targeted. If the marriage succeeded, her problems would naturally be solved, and no one would dare to
provoke her again.
Brenda believed her plans were foolproof and thought that no one could see through her true
intentions. Little did she know that ever since Victoria’s relationship with Sebastian was exposed, the
actions of the Lesley family were being closely monitored by Christina and Nathaniel.
Upon hearing that Christina could help her alleviate her problems, Brenda scrutinized her carefully.
If it were anyone else, Brenda wouldn’t be swayed easily. However, Christina had married a capable
husband, and whatever Christina couldn’t achieve could be accomplished by Nathaniel better.
Sensing Brenda’s hesitation, Christina decided to play her trump card.
“Even if I can’t help you myself, Sebastian is there to help. He is a prominent figure around Nathaniel,
and Nathaniel intends to train him to take over the company’s business overseas. At such a critical
moment, Nathaniel will definitely not let any problem affect Sebastian.”
Christina continued, “Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. Nathaniel actually supports Sebastian and
Victoria’s relationship fully. You know very little about Sebastian and haven’t had much contact with
him. You probably don’t know how popular he is among other girls. All those prominent and influential
families want to recruit Sebastian as their son–in–law. But Sebastian is quite stubborn. Once he sets
his mind on someone, he won’t easily change. His loyalty has caused Nathaniel some distress for a
while because those who wanted to recruit Sebastian lost the opportunity to collaborate long–term with
the Hadleys.”
It was common knowledge that the Lesleys were slightly inferior to the Hadleys in various aspects.
Unaware that the collaboration between Preston and Nathaniel had gone south, Brenda proudly said, “I
believe Mr. Hadley is not driven emotionally at work. You don’t need to go out of your way to speak well
of Sebastian, nor do you need to use my weaknesses to threaten me. I will never agree to them being
together.”
Christina stood up and smiled.
“You’re overthinking it. The things I’ve told you are not meant to show how outstanding Sebastian is or
how he can’t live without Victoria. It’s about Victoria needing Sebastian. You know better than I do
about Victoria’s stubbornness. She’s your daughter. What I hope for is that you can let go of prejudices
and try to understand things beyond your social circle sincerely.”
Tap! Tap! Tap!
Just then, footsteps could be heard coming from upstairs.
“Ms. Lesley, Mrs. Lesley is mecting a guest. You can’t go down!” The butler’s urgent voice came
through. “Step aside, all of you!” Victoria’s deep and powerful voice suddenly rang out.
As Victoria rushed to the living room from upstairs instantly, the butler and several housekeepers
followed in fear. They were afraid of being dismissed because of this.
“Christina, you’re here!” Victoria pounced on Christina and grabbed her wrist. “Take me away quickly.
I’ve had enough of being controlled.”
With that, Victoria held Christina’s hand and began to leave with her. Behind them, Brenda’s angry yells
could be heard.
“Victoria, where do you think you’re going? Stop right there!”
Victoria dragged Christina along and didn’t look back.
Furious, Brenda glared at the butler and servants. “Are you all dead? Stop Victoria from leaving at
once!”
