Unwilling Trophy Wife (Serena and Victor) novel Chapter 92

Chapter 92

Almost overnight, the news that the Powell family was about to form a marriage alliance with the Aniston Group spread like wildfire across the internat

Business forums, gossip bloggers, and even financial news outlets were all buzzing, debating whether the rumor was actually

Verified leaks confirmed that the two familles had been in behind the scenes talks for months. The engagement party for the Aniston family heiress Regina, was set for mid next month, with Victor as the fiance,

Eliza’s fingers trembled slightly as she scrolled through her phone.

After exhausting every scheme to return to victor’s side and finally managing to drive Serena away, Eliza thought she was finally going to marry Victor and become Victor’s wife.

But this sudden marriage alliance storm struck her like a bolt from the blur.

Eliza shot to her feet, her chair scraping harshly across the floor.

Without a care for the stares around her, she grabbed her purse from the table and staggered toward the exit,

She rushed straight to the dark wooden door of Victor’s office. But the secretary suddenly stepped out and blocked Eliza at the doorway

The secretary politely stopped Eliza and said, “Ms. Stone, I’m afraid you can’t go in right now, Mr. Powell is in a meeting”

Eliza clenched her teeth, swallowing her fury before forcing her signature gentle smile back onto her face. “Please inform him that I have something extremely urgent to discuss

The secretary glanced at Eliza hesitantly. She was well aware of the special relationship between Eliza and Victor, so she dared not offend her lightly

After a moment’s hesitation, the secretary lightly knocked on the office door,

Only after receiving Victor’s permission did she cautiously push open the door, walk to his desk, and lean over to whisper a few words in this war,

In under three minutes, Victor emerged. “Ellie, what’s wrong? What happened that’s got you so worked up?”

“Vic, are those online rumors true?” Eliza pulled out her phone, opened the trending news article, and thrust the screen under his nose.

Victor glanced at it, his voice dropping noticeably lower, “Don’t believe all that nonsense. It’s completely fabricated.”

“But everyone’s spreading such vivid rumors, Vic. I’d never forgive myself if I became the reason you missed this marriage alliance,” she said.

“But-“Her words caught in her throat as she looked up at Victor, her listening, pleading eyes fixed on him.

Victor couldn’t stand seeing Eliza like this. The moment she gave him that teary–eyed, vulnerable look, half of his rationality crumbled away.

He sighed, gently drawing her into his embrace, his tone unconsciously softening. “I’ve no idea where this rumor started, but it’s completely fabricated

“I don’t like Regina at all, let alone talk of any marriage alliance. Don’t worry, and stop overthinking it.”

“Vic, this is all my fault. I never should have come back. If I hadn’t returned, you wouldn’t” Eliza sobbed, her heart heavy with guilt.

Her words trailed off as she gently pushed Victor away and lowered her head. “Vic, if your marriage alliance with the Aniston family falls through because of me, it’s all my fault.

“I was too willful. I never should have dared to hope for something I could never have.”

Victor’s heart ached for her. He tightened his embrace, gently cupped her face in his hands, and gated at her intently. “Silly, don’t talk nonsense. You’re the only one in my heart, and that’s never changed”
