Chapter 133
Victoria slipped on the dress and stepped in front of the full-length mirror-then finally noticed what was off.
The gown had a plunging neckline and an open back. In other words, it was nothing short of scandalous.
And on Victoria's flawless figure, the effect was breathtaking. If she dared to dip her chin, that tic V would
draw every eye in the room.
"Oh my God—"
Yasmine was stunned. She'd always known Ms. Turner was beautiful, but Victoria usually dressed so
conservatively that showing a hint of collarbone was about as daring as she got.
Even as a woman, Yasmine found herself swallowing hard at the sight of Victoria's
curves.
With a figure like that, what man at the event wouldn't have a nosebleed just looking at her?
Victoria frowned. How was she supposed to walk out in this?
She knew Violet had done this on purpose-trying to set her up for embarrassment in front of everyone.
"Ms. Turner, maybe you should change into something else?" Yasmine suggested, her tone nervous. It all just felt
a little too much too bold, too sexy, too attention- grabbing.
But Victoria just picked up her purse and looked at the reflection—at that
unfamiliar, impossibly alluring woman staring back at her. She smiled, the corners of her mouth curling up.

Violet wanted to make her a spectacle? Well, so be it. With a body like hers, why should she hide? She was
Victoria now-herself, not someone's wife.
Her mind flashed back to her marriage with McNeil. She'd never even gotten to wear a wedding dress, never
attended a grand party, never had an occasion for beautiful clothes.
Her days had all been the sloose sweats, waiting at hfor him, tending to his needs, hair a mess as she
pored over reports and ran his numbers. When McNeil chome, she'd still be barefaced, and even after years
of marriage, she'd never worn anything remotely sexy to bed.
She'd almost forgotten that she was once the darling of Northriver University-the campus queen, admired by
thousands.
Yasmine couldn't believe that the woman who always dressed like a nun was now stepping out in a dress like
this. Hurriedly, she moved to help Victoria with the hem.
When Victoria descended the spiral staircase, the white gown hugged her curves, every step radiating
confidence and grace.
Haley happened to walk by and froze, stunned.
My God, Miss Turner really had grown up. She was even more dazzling now than Edith ever was.
At the door, Victoria waited until Yasmine brought the car around, then slid in with effortless elegance.
The ribbon-cutting was at the Panorama Peak Hotel. Even before eight o'clock, the entrance was packed with
luxury cars and camera crews, reporters jostling for the best spot.
"We'll go around back," Victoria instructed, sending Yasmine to the side entrance. The last thing she wanted was
to walk the red carpet and draw every eye.
After all, the press wasn't here for her-they wanted Violet, McNeil, Curtis, and all the business bigwigs.
If she guessed right, Simms and Yulia would show up too. Like McNeil, they were all backing Violet.

She found her colleagues from PR waiting inside.
The moment they saw Victoria, jaws dropped.
