Chapter 98: Chapter 98 : Definitely a Pervert

Victor passed through the stunned guests with Margaret, heading to the inner party inside the glass-domed hall. Everyone was looking at him with a mix of disgust and envy.
“Poor Miss Linda had to marry this beast. We must find a way to stop this atrocity.” Everyone was thinking. Margaret saw it clearly in their eyes.

“Didn’t we go a little overboard out there?” She asked him while wondering if that pervert at the end was also the work of Victor, He seemed familiar.

“Overboard? Maybe a little, but I had many reasons to do so. That woman who accused me was sent by Linda.” He said. Margret nodded, she already guessed that much.

“Don’t worry about those guys. 90% of them live off businesses owned by my family. When they go home and think things over they will realize that I am a true gentleman.” He added.

After discovering the truth about Von Rosen's method, He realized that they wanted to plant that parasite on him using Linda, but that fool messed around, and she probably didn’t tell anyone.

If he went to her home right now and revealed the truth to her mother there would be a problem. They would probably make him marry Linda anyway to hide their plan from his family because his grandmother would insist on going on with the marriage. They might even make Linda incite his cousin's jealousy and create an infighting in the family.
So his current plan was to make Linda hate him. Later, he would start blackmailing her to do some very dirty things, making her loathe him. Then after her family forces her to marry him, that idiot will reveal the truth by herself not realizing the gravity of her mistake, so they would call off the marriage by themselves after that and maybe change the bride. Victor was sure that no sane woman would want him after what he did today.

He wanted to prove to his grandmother and to the world that he is a pervert. He doesn’t want to be thrown into another political marriage when his engagement with Linda gets dissolved.

His plan was risky, and if that was his entire plan he would have been stupid. His real purpose is very simple, just delaying the marriage enough for him to erase the Von Rosen family. He has already formulated a method, and the only thing he needs is time, and a few rare materials.

Maybe he would even let Linda help him a little. She wanted to gracefully introduce herself as a virtuous wife, who defends her husband's reputation before entering the inner hall with him. She also wanted to show him that she had nothing to do with the rumors. If this was himself in the past, he might have fallen for it. but he shattered her plans by acting like that. And that move with Tom was on a whim. He didn’t expect him to be here.

He was sure that Linda would return to her mother and beg her to change the fiance, or absolve the engagement altogether. And her mother would refuse. In addition to that she will not sleep peacefully tonight, she would be very worried about the ID and would contact him herself in a few days. Maybe he would be able to milk some information out of her, but he doubted that idiot knew anything important.

“You can stop using your skill now.” He said to Margaret as they stepped up the stairs of the domed hall.

“What do you mean young master? I have never used such a thing.” She said with an innocent smile that made the young attendant who opened the door for them blush.

Victor chuckled as stepped inside the hall, where many hanging chandeliers lit the party as if it were daylight.

The guests inside were of a different class, most of the people here were already aware of Victor’s status or were abruptly informed by their countenances.

“Young master, you are here at last.” Susan came running and bowed deeply at Victor. The last time he slapped her made her aware that this man was not to be trifled with. And she really liked being the head of a company. Maybe if she licked enough he would give her more benefits.
“You are here too, huh!” Victor Nodded as she guided him through the guests into a deck where 3 chairs were placed, one of them was already filled by a young woman. The other two chairs were meant for him and poor Linda, who had no face to show herself anymore.

Victor quickly went to the seat in the middle and looked at the young woman,
“Hey beauty, how much for the hour?” He asked in a faint voice that half of the hall could hear.

The woman was not shocked and looked at him with little annoyance as if he was a fly that happened to land on her cuff. She was considering whether to swat him or not.

Her name was Charlotte Von Geldstadt, one of the five heirs contesting for the seat of the Von Geldstadt family head. This bitch was Titus’s patron and the one behind the assassination attempts on him.
