Chapter 1191

No.1

"Hah! Can you even believe your own words? Your voice is so fake and annoying! Shut up! Leave now!" Oliver snapped impatiently.

Victoria's face froze completely.

Her words got stuck in her throat.

Did he just speak to her like that?

He called her...

Isabella didn't want Oliver involved in adult matters.

She gently ruffled his hair. "Momo, be good. Go prepare the rock-climbing gear. Give me five minutes to make her leave, okay?"

"Okay, then," Oliver muttered, pouting.

He still shot a scornful look at Victoria. "Listen, you bad woman! I'm warning you! Don't hurt my Mommy, or my Daddy will make you pay!"

No.2

Then he ran upstairs.

Victoria's expression shifted between shock and humiliation.

She was once the top supermodel.

Everyone used to respect and admire her.

Now even a child despised her!

How could a child say such cruel things?

It had to be Isabella.

Isabella must have slandered her behind her back.

She must have ruined her reputation.

No.3

Victoria wanted to tear that pretty face to shreds.

But Benjamin was here.

She could only glare at Isabella with reddened eyes.

"Isabella, I've already apologized. Can't you forgive me? Why are you turning a child against me?"

"Hah! Slander? Are you even worth my time?" Isabella rolled her eyes.

She turned her cold gaze to Benjamin. "This is my home. Why did you let a stray animal in without my permission?"

"She's not a stray animal! She's our sister!" Benjamin insisted. "Don't forget how she always protected you when we were kids! Why are you two fighting over a man?!"

"Over a man? Benjamin, let's get something straight," Isabella scoffed.

She pulled out her phone and played a video clip.

No.4

The footage of Victoria and Alexander in bed appeared instantly.

Victoria's moans filled the room. "Alexander darling, am I prettier? Or is Isabella prettier? Do you like me or her?"

"Alexander darling, I'm just scared you'll fall for her. I'm scared her money and looks will tempt you. I'm terrified you'll stop loving me..."

"Will you still take her assets for me? Will you divorce her and marry me?"

Her expression in the video was completely different from the pure, innocent face she wore now.

Benjamin jolted.

It was easy to forget how vicious Victoria could be.

Especially when the Victoria standing before them seemed so gentle and kind.

Who would believe she had this side?

No.5

Until Isabella showed the video again.

Victoria’s face burned with a mix of fury and humiliation.

That incident was ancient history.

Yet Isabella deliberately brought it up in front of Benjamin.

How calculating could she be?

Isabella let out a cold, dismissive laugh. “Benjamin, look closely. She didn’t just steal Alexander from me. She conspired with him to plunder my entire fortune. If this recording hadn't surfaced, I’d be dead by now. They would be in control of all my assets at this very moment.”

“You’re asking me to forgive her? Fine. Answer me this: Have you ever truly forgiven our parents and Grandfather for how they treated you?”

The question struck Benjamin unprepared.

She was right.

No.6

He harbored deep resentment for the way his parents and Grandfather had always looked down on him.

What Victoria did to Isabella was far worse.

How could forgiveness even be an option?

If he were in Isabella’s position, having endured all that betrayal, he would have ended them.

Victoria sensed Benjamin’s shifting loyalty instantly.

Tears immediately welled in her eyes and began to stream down her cheeks. “It’s not what it looks like! There are reasons… complicated reasons. I can’t explain them now. Not yet. You’ll understand someday. I promise you will.”

She sobbed pitifully, implying she was burdened by a terrible secret.

She then produced an ornate invitation card and walked slowly toward Isabella.

“Sister,” she began, her voice choked with emotion. “I came here today to personally deliver this to you. I sincerely hope you will attend my wedding to Alexander. I know I’ve wronged you in the past. I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you. Please… we are sisters. I’m begging you to come. Do you know I have no friends left? No one is willing to be my bridesmaid.”

No.7

“Mother and Father agreed that you should be the one. They hoped it would help you forgive me. That we could heal our relationship. Please… I’m begging for a chance to make things right.”

Her voice was raw and hoarse from crying. The tears never stopped falling. She performed the picture of utter agony.

Isabella merely responded with another cold scoff. She was about to speak, to refuse, but Victoria forcefully pressed the thick cardstock invitation into her hand.

“Sister, I know you’ll say yes. I choose to believe this world is still beautiful, just like you do. I’ll be expecting you in two days. You have to be there.”

With that, she turned to Benjamin before making her exit. “Be ready, Benjamin. Don’t waste this opportunity. Call me if you need anything…”

Her final words successfully redirected Benjamin’s thoughts to Takashi Yamamoto. A notoriously arrogant and reclusive top-tier gamer like him usually refused all coaching requests. Yet Victoria had somehow convinced him.

Maybe she really was a kind sister at heart.

Perhaps there were hidden reasons for her being with Alexander, just as she hinted…
