Came Back as an Heiress After My Ex-Fiancé Made Me Blind novel Chapter 16

The next morning.

The sun shone softly through the window into the room.

Victoria eyelashes trembled as she slowly woke up from her sleep.

Looking at the unfamiliar ceiling above her, she was stunned for a while before realizing that this was Jack's room.

She and Jack received their marriage certificate yesterday, and they were going to live here in the future.

Victoria got up from the bed. The wound on her calf was beginning to heal.

The ointment Jack asked the old butler to send was pretty good.

While having breakfast.

John sat in the main seat, and Victoria sat down beside Jack.

John seemed pleased, and smiled happily. "Jack, I've picked a good day for you and Victoria's wedding! In time, the news of your marriage will be announced!"

Jack nodded slightly, "Alright."

Victoria was startled and hurriedly touched his leg with her leg under the dining table.

Jack took a deep breath.

His eyes darkened.

He turned his head to look at her and asked with his eyes, what's wrong?

Victoria quietly leaned in and whispered in his ear, "We signed the divorce agreement yesterday. We will divorce in a year.

Jack frowned.

Victoria continued to whisper, "So, there's no need to hold the wedding for now, and there's no need to announce the marriage. What do you think?"

Jack's eyes were deep, and he looked at her for a long time before he withdrew his gaze indifferently

Victoria turned to look at the old man and smiled. "Grandfather, let's talk about the wedding later. Don't worry."

The old man didn't mind the delay but was eager for them to have a wedding.

"Victoria, ultimately, marriage is a matter for you people to decide. If you want to have the wedding at a later date, that's fine. Just don't make your grandfather wait too long."

Victoria Shengge smiled sweetly and assured him. "Grandfather, we can discuss the wedding at a later time. There's no need to rush."

The old man did not live with them, so he returned to the old house after breakfast.

Today was the weekend. Jack did not have to go to the company.

He sat on the sofa in the living room. He wore a loose-fitting thin sweater. His knuckled fingers were flipping through a financial magazine.

Victoria remembered the ointment from last night, her eyes rolled slightly, and she ran upstairs to take the ointment. She took the ointment and walked in front of the man.

"This ointment is quite effective. You have a bite mark on your wrist. You could try applying it."

He looked down at the magazine without looking up, "No need."

Victoria blinked, Do you plan to keep this bite mark forever?"

The man finally took his eyes off the magazine and raised his eyes to look at her.

Finally, Jack glanced up from the magazine, locking his eyes onto her. He spoke with a cool tone, "And if I were to say that I want to keep this bite mark forever?"

Victoria looked perplexed.

She couldn't understand why anyone would want to keep a scar, especially a bite mark.

She vaguely remembered that he had not bitten him so hard at that time. so how was the mark still visible?

Well, since he didn't want to apply the ointment, she didn't force it and turned around to leave.

Jack slowly stretched out his leg.

Hearing that she had also studied dance, she deliberately brought her to sign up with her. They pretended to be sisters and participated in the competition together. In reality, she had been cast in the role of the unremarkable foil, allowing Amelia's grace and talent to shine even brighter.

Naturally, she could see Amelia's intentions, but at that time, she was all about trying to please the Montgomery family. She did whatever Amelia said, so she signed up with her.

In the preliminaries, Amelia deliberately dressed her in a mismatched outfit. Alongside her sister, Amelia had looked like a heavenly beauty, easily claiming the first place.

Victoria had learned to dance since she was a child.

Even if she wore mismatched clothes, she could still dance the way she should and easily win.

In order to please the Montgomery family, she deliberately danced poorly, ignoring that she was being used as a stepping stone, thinking that she could earn the attention of the Montgomery family.

However, she did not expect that her biological brothers would only ridicule her mercilessly, leaving no room for sympathy.

Reading the text message on her phone, Victoria couldn't help but feel a sense of astonishment She had actually made it through the preliminary round as well? If that was the case, would she have to face Amelia again in the rematch?

Victoria's bright eyes rose slightly, and her red lips were slightly hooked. She wanted to see if Amelia could still win the first place in the semi-finals this time.

The preliminary competition had been themed "Pure White," a contest focused on traditional dance. Many people knew how to dance in a classical style, but only a few excelled in it.

Victoria dedicated her thoughts to preparing a stage performance in line with the "Pure White" theme, bracing herself for the rigorous rehearsals that lay ahead.

Jack didn't say anything when he heard that she was going to participate in this competition.

The astute butler had observed that Mr. Moore had no intention of restricting Miss Montgomery in any way, suggesting that he would support her endeavors

Time flew by, and a week passed quickly.

Victoria arrived at the competition venue punctually.

When she walked backstage, she ran into Dempsey and Amelia.

Beside them, stood a handsome man in a suit.

Victoria looked at him coldly. It was her eldest brother, Trent Montgomery.
