Chapter 309 Chapter 259 Tan Quinn's face was thunderous. He addressed Sebastian in a deep voice: "Cwithto the study." Without another glance at Sebastian, lan turned and headed upstairs to his office. Sebastian placed both hands on Victoria's shoulders. "Vic, wait for me." Aunt Helen watched coldly from the side. Before leaving, Sebastian gave his stepmother a serious, icy look. "Aunt Helen, this started because of me.

"It's swollen." Victoria's eyes were pooling with tears, breaking Sebastian's heart. ---- He called for a maid to bring santi-inflammatory cream and pressed it into Victoria's hand. "Put this on first." Victoria nodded.
Still worried, Sebastian called for Sophia, a housekeeper who'd watched him grow up and had always been kind to him, instructing her to look after Victoria. "Looking after" really meant guarding Victoria-mainly to prevent Aunt Helen from getting physical again. After these arrangements, Sebastian went to the study. Victoria took the medicine and returned to her room, with Aunt Helen following her in and Sophia right behind them.
As Victoria applied the cream, Aunt Helen stood nearby making scathing remarks. "Victoria, are all the men in the world dead that you need to seduce your own brother? Are you that desperate?" Aunt Helen's tone was vicious, her words cruel. Victoria wept, feeling deeply wronged-Sebastian had been the one who'd pursued her first. ---- Aunt Helen was her biological mother, yet without even understanding the situation, her first accusation was that Victoria had seduced her brother? "[ seduced my brother?" Victoria let out a bitter laugh. "Is that really who you think I am?" Aunt Helen pulled out a stack of photos from her purse and threw them violently onto the table in front of Victoria. "Take a good look at these!" Victoria's gaze dropped to the photos, her brow furrowing. They were all pictures of her and Sebastian on dates. Going to the movies, the amusement park, the music hall, art exhibitions, various restaurants... The photos were clearly taken secretly.
Victoria picked them up and examined them carefully. Judging by the locations, the earliest ones were from over a month ago. Around that time, Irene Hildago had approached her, asking ----for help pursuing Sebastian. She had refused. Victoria's brow furrowed deeply. Her first suspicion was Irene. "Who gave you these photos?" Victoria asked. "What does it matter who gave them to me?" Aunt Helen snapped. "Look at these shameful things you've done! Still denying you seduced your brother?

The evidence is right here!" The photos showed them embracing, holding hands, and even Kissing. Victoria gathered the photos, wipe her tears, and looked coldly at Aunt Helen. "If mutual consent is 'seduction,' then when you got together with Mike Bratt from Celeste Industries, did you seduce him first? At least I'm single. What about you? You're a married woman." Hearing this, Aunt Helen exploded. She raised her hand to slap Victoria again but was stopped by Sophia.
