Came Back as an Heiress After My Ex-Fiancé Made Me Blind novel Chapter 285

"Ah, having such a brother, Victoria is also quite pitiful!"

"Don't forget, there's still this ancient painting. Peter was determined to restore it with Willow, but it was damaged. It was Victoria who saved the situation! If you ask me, Victoria should cut ties with the Montgomery family! The farther away from them, the better!"

...

With such glaring surveillance evidence slapped on her face, Willow could no longer argue.

Listening to the sarcasm and angry scolding of the crowd, these sharp and piercing voices drained the blood from Willow's face. She retreated in embarrassment, unable to escape, feeling like she was nailed to the cross of shame.

These people were scolding her and praising Victoria...

Why...

Why?!!

Victoria!!!

Why did she have the right to live in this world!!!

Willow glared at Victoria with a sinister and distorted gaze.

She had been raised by Uncle Duke since she was a child, learning so many skills just to defeat Victoria, but in the end...

At this moment, Peter listened to the sarcasm and mockery from the surrounding crowd, and nervously walked step by step to Victoria, anxiously looking at her, "Shengsheng, I... I have something to tell you..."

Seeing him, Victoria felt repulsed, not wanting to listen to a single word of nonsense, and turned to leave.

Peter panicked, subconsciously reached out to stop her, and looked at her pleadingly,

"Victoria, I misunderstood you. When I saw the recording that was exposed online, I didn't believe you, and when I heard Willow's words hiding in the corridor corner later, I still didn't believe you..."

"If I had believed you the first two times, I wouldn't have been framed and harmed by Willow today, nor would I have seen through Willow's true colors today..."

"And this ancient painting, it's all thanks to you that it was salvaged. If it weren't for you, this ancient painting would have been truly destroyed..."

If such a precious and rare cultural relic were to perish because of him, he would never forgive himself in this lifetime.

Peter regretfully closed his eyes and, when he opened them again, there were tears in the corners, "Victoria, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have..."

Carl glanced at Victoria's expression and saw that she was impatient, so he interrupted Peter angrily,

"What's the use of apologizing now? Can your apologies undo the past hurts? As for that ancient painting, Victoria repaired it because it's a cultural relic, it has nothing to do with you!"

Peter felt embarrassed at the words, unable to refute them because what Carl said was the truth.

Peter squinted his eyes, full of disdain and arrogance between his eyebrows,

"Peter, you didn't believe the truth when it was presented to you the first two times, but until today, when you were framed by Willow, you finally know how uncomfortable it felt. You didn't understand the pain until it was inflicted on you,"

"If it weren't for you being framed by Willow today, would you still choose to believe Willow and not believe Victoria in the future?!"

The deafening voice fell, and Peter's heart suddenly tightened, feeling like his neck was being tightly squeezed by a hand, suffocating and unable to breathe.

He wanted to say no, it wasn't like that.

But what right did he have to deny it?

Even he didn't know, if it weren't for being betrayed by Willow today, how would he treat Victoria in the future?

Peter's mind was in chaos, panicked, and looked at Victoria, wanting to explain, wanting to reach out and grab her sleeve, "Victoria, I..."

Victoria's expression was indifferent, shaking off Peter's hand as if tossing away garbage.

She spoke slowly, her voice as cold as unfathomable ice at the bottom of a lake,

"Peter, I have long severed ties with the Montgomery family, and with you too. In the future, don't bother me, don't come to me and be a nuisance."

Peter's breath stagnated, his outstretched hand frozen in mid-air, his eyes staring blankly at Victoria, his mouth opened as if wanting to say something, but his throat felt swollen and blocked, unable to speak.

Victoria...

His sister...

No longer willing to acknowledge him...

Director Erasmus watched this scene in front of him, feeling a sense of pity in his heart, feeling that Peter deserved it.

He didn't pay much attention to what was going on online, not knowing what Victoria had experienced, but seeing her decisive and neat demeanor, his heart grew more and more appreciative of her.

He wondered if Victoria had a boyfriend.

If not, he must introduce her friend's grandson to her. Both in appearance and ability, they are very compatible!

At this moment, Carl's phone rang. When he took it out, he saw that it was his brother.

Carl hurriedly walked to the side and answered with a smile, "Hello, brother, what's wrong?"

The first thing his brother asked was Victoria, "I just called Victoria, and her phone is off?"

Carl scratched his head, "It's probably because her phone ran out of battery."

The secretary-general next to him explained at the right time, "Your Excellency, this is Miss Montgomery, the restorer of the ancient painting 'Maple Forest in the Autumn.'"

The King was pleasantly surprised, "I know her, isn't she Ivy Sundrew, the chief designer of G.Y! My wife likes the clothes she designs! I didn't expect Ivy Sundrew to also be a top-notch artifact restorer!"

Victoria raised an eyebrow slightly, so that's how it was.

Director Erasmus was amazed. This little girl, Victoria, was extraordinary!

Watching Victoria talking with the King, Director Erasmus originally thought that on such a grand occasion, facing the King of a country, Victoria would be constrained and nervous, even afraid.

Unexpectedly, Victoria showed no trace of fear. From beginning to end, she was calm and composed, her demeanor was graceful and elegant, as if it naturally exuded from her bones.

Director Erasmus questioned himself, at Victoria's age, he didn't have her courage.

Apart from admiration, Director Erasmus had even more respect for this little girl Victoria.

When the King became enthusiastic and mentioned that his wife liked the evening gown designed by Victoria, and he admired the ancient painting she restored, he warmly invited Victoria to take a photo together.

Victoria gladly agreed.

After taking the photo, the King shook hands warmly with her.

After leaving the banquet hall, Victoria and Mr. Erasmus returned to the VIP lounge together.

Director Erasmys's eyes were full of admiration, "Victoria, you have achieved so much at such a young age. I, this old man, really feel inferior!"

Unfortunately, his grandson already had a girlfriend. If he didn't, he would let his grandson pursue Victoria!

"Oh right, Victoria, when you were talking with the King just now, people were filming at all times. These scenes should be on the news of the national channel tonight!"

Victoria blinked. She was going to be on the news?

National channel news?

She turned around and told Jack to remember to watch her on TV.

...

In the evening, the visit of the King of England, and the fact that he liked the Country's ancient painting "Maple Forest in the Autumn," became a hot topic on the internet.

Among the myriad of online information, an anonymous account revealed that the "Maple Forest in the Autumn" painting was originally very damaged and was successfully displayed at the state banquet after restoration. And the person who restored this ancient painting was rumored to be Willow Sullivan!

Netizens were shocked and asked, "Is this true? Was it restored by Willow Sullivan? Wow, so amazing?"
