Chapter 392 The One Who Dared to Steal Him
She knew full well about their relationship, and yet that tramp inside had the nerve to seduce Mr. Victor. Shameless.
So what if she had a pretty face? She looked young too–trying to take the easy way out and latch onto a rich man?
She clearly had no idea who she was messing with.
After hesitating for a moment, the woman finally turned around and left, though clearly reluctant.
In the lounge.
Jinnie was touching up her makeup. When she saw her assistant return, she asked, confused, “Back already?”
Her eyes landed on the thermal lunch container in the assistant’s hand. “Victor finished eating?”
The assistant frowned, clearly upset.
“Jinnie, he didn’t eat.”
Jinnie looked even more confused. “Why not? Was he too busy with work and didn’t have time? If he’s busy, just leave the container in his office. He’ll eat when he has a moment. Why did you bring it back?”
The assistant looked miserable. “Jinnie, when I got there, Mr. Victor was already eating. There was a woman in his office. Really pretty.”
“What?” Jinnie shot up from her seat.
“What kind of woman? Someone from Mavis Group?”
“Doesn’t look like it. She wasn’t wearing a uniform, and she seemed really familiar with both Mr. Timely and Mr. Victor.”
She paused, then added, “Jinnie, do you think she might be Victor’s arranged marriage partner? I mean, rich families always marry each other off.”
Jinnie clenched her teeth.
Ever since she started intentionally shipping herself with Victor, her career had been on the rise.
She truly liked Victor. Not only was he wealthy, he was also incredibly handsome. But more importantly, even though he came from a powerful family, he had always kept himself clean. No scandals, no fooling around.
All four heirs of the Balewood elite families were great options.
At first, she had her sights set on the heir to Brooker Corporation. If she could marry into the Brooker family, not only would she become a high–society wife, she wouldn’t even have to deal with in–law drama. It would’ve been perfect.
But the Brooker heir was cold, ruthless, and cruel.
Someone once tried to drug and seduce him. He resisted the effects long enough to get to the hospital, and once the drug wore off, that woman was reportedly dumped in Fenoria. No one had heard from her since.

As for the two heirs of the Fawkes and Qin families, rumor had it they were both smitten with the mysterious genius princess of the Mavis family.
Jinnie knew she was exceptional–she’d already won Best Actress at twenty–five.
But she was also self–aware. No matter how successful her career was, she was still just a celebrity.
Meanwhile, the Mavis princess was not only born into wealth but also a genius scientist. Of course the Fawkes and Qin heirs would fall for her. How could Jinnie ever compete?
After narrowing it all down, Victor was the only one left she had any chance with.

If she could marry Victor, she’d not only become a high–society wife, but also have a genius scientist sister–in–law. Maybe one day that connection could get her into even higher circles.
Right now was a crucial time in her transition to film. She was hoping to leverage Victor into landing a holographic headset endorsement deal–so how dare some little tramp show up out of nowhere and seduce him?
And Victor actually refused to eat the lunch she made him with love?
Jinnie clenched her fists. That damn tramp. Just you wait.
“Jinnie, what do we do?”
Jinnie sneered. “What do we do? We destroy that bitch. She wants to steal my man? She’s dead.”
Once the Mavis father and son finished eating, Lauren didn’t linger. She picked up the lunch container and left the office building.
But just as she was about to hop on her electric scooter, someone clamped a hand over her mouth and dragged her into a car.
Inside, a man held a knife to her neck.
“Don’t want to die? Then sit still and behave.”
Lauren didn’t even flinch. She just sat there calmly.
The kidnapper was a little thrown off by how composed she was. “You’re not scared?”
“Shouldn’t the ones scared be you?”
“Heh, we had the guts to kidnap you–what’s there to be scared of?”
“If I’m not mistaken, you guys were hired, weren’t you? Tsk tsk… whoever paid you to snatch me must really hate your guts.”
“What the hell is that supposed to mean?”
Lauren raised an eyebrow. “Judging by your reaction, you don’t even know who I am, do you?”
“What the hell do we care who you are? We get paid to do a job. You behave, and we won’t kill you. But you better know how to keep us entertained.”
