CHAPTER 90: CHAPTER 90: VICTORIA IS ATTACKED, EUGENE VAUGHN’S FURIOUS RAGE

Victoria Sinclair’s anger slowly enveloped her as she calmly watched the few middle-aged women in front of her.

The indignation and hatred for evil were all over their faces as they pointed at her and cursed.

"You’re so pretty, yet so cruel-hearted. Why don’t you just die?"

"You can’t even make your own life satisfactory and won’t let your brother and sister-in-law’s family be happy. Are you only satisfied when you’ve caused them to be torn apart?"

"I’ve never seen such a malicious sister-in-law. Heaven has eyes, you’ll definitely get your retribution."

Victoria tightly clenched her fists, her blood flowing in reverse, her body trembling slightly with anger. She took deep breaths, biting her teeth, with a seemingly calm exterior hiding her boiling rage.

Enduring her sister-in-law’s wanton defamation of her online, what she was worried about finally happened.

Angela Austin and Professor Lee rushed out, seeing several women surrounding Victoria Sinclair, defending her and hurriedly pulling her back.

Professor Lee stood in front of the group of middle-aged women, "What do you want? Can’t you speak properly?"

The women pointed at Victoria Sinclair, noisily hurling insults.

Professor Lee was maintaining, explaining, and driving them away.

Angela felt distressed, hurriedly taking out tissues to wipe Victoria Sinclair’s face, whispering softly, "What are these crazy women doing? Are they insane?"

Angela cleaned Victoria Sinclair’s face, plucked the broken eggshell from her hair, and held her arm, "Victoria, I’ll take you inside. If they dare throw eggs at you again, I’ll definitely scratch their faces."

"I’m fine." Victoria Sinclair gently pushed Angela’s hand away and took her phone out of her bag.

Angela was a bit dazed, "Victoria, if you stand here, they will keep cursing you and might even hit you."

"I’ll just stand here and let them hit me." Victoria Sinclair dialed a number and put the phone to her ear.

Angela was puzzled.

Victoria Sinclair said into the connected phone, "Hello, I’d like to report this to the police..."

Upon hearing this, Angela felt instantly reassured.

That’s Victoria Sinclair for you!

She looks so quiet and seemingly easy to bully, but if you mess with her, it’s these ignorant women who will suffer.

If Victoria Sinclair had gone into the research institute to evade, this group of women would leave in boredom.

But she didn’t leave, instead standing outside quietly waiting for the police to arrive, while more and more onlookers gathered to take photos and videos.

Ten minutes later, the police arrived.

The women attacking Victoria Sinclair, relying on their numbers and thinking they had the upper hand, unabashedly accused Victoria Sinclair of various wrongdoings, turning her into a villain with their chaotic accusations.

The police thought it was just an ordinary argument among women and tried to de-escalate the situation by urging them to leave.

Victoria Sinclair was unwavering, "Please enforce the law impartially. If you try to brush it off, I’ll hire a lawyer to sue you too."

The police saw that Victoria Sinclair was tough, and their attitude immediately became serious. Two police cars took all the troublemakers back to the police station.

Victoria Sinclair, as the person involved, went along too.

Eugene Vaughn received Angela’s phone call and arrived at the police station an hour later.

He dashed into the case hall and saw Victoria Sinclair sitting in a corner on a chair, hurriedly rushing over.

Victoria Sinclair stood up in surprise when she saw Eugene Vaughn.

Eugene was panting heavily, looked flustered, and held her arms, looking her over with deep concern, his tone extremely gentle, "Are you hurt?"

How did he come over?

Eugene’s worried and anxious reaction surprised her even more.

She was stunned for a few seconds, then shook her head, "I’m not hurt."

Eugene noticed her hair clumped together lifelessly and lightly touched it with his fingers, "What’s this?"

"Egg liquid."

Eugene’s face suddenly darkened like ink, his eyes turning cold as he looked towards the women being questioned in front of them, "Did they throw it?"

Victoria Sinclair nodded.

Eugene took out his phone, "I’ll get the lawyer over."

Victoria Sinclair held his wrist, "No need, it’s just a disturbance by the crowd, the conviction is straightforward. At most, they’ll be detained for a few days, no need for a lawyer."

Just then, a police officer came over and politely said, "Miss Sinclair, they are ordinary housewives who developed hostility towards you after seeing a blogger’s daily posts online. They made a mistake in a moment of confusion. I’ve already educated them and provided legal information; they’ve admitted their mistakes and can solemnly apologize to you. Would you consider reconciliation?"

The police officer hadn’t even finished speaking.

Victoria Sinclair and Eugene spoke in unison, "No."

The police officer was stunned.

Victoria Sinclair and Eugene were also slightly surprised, glancing at each other.

Having the same thought, Victoria Sinclair felt very gratified inside.

Victoria Sinclair looked at the police officer and added, "They are all older than me, they should know right from wrong. Whatever kind of person I am, whatever mistakes I might have made, it’s none of their business. Since they have so much free time and want to be judges of online truth, they should be responsible for their own actions."

"Miss Sinclair, actually..."

"We’re all just ordinary strangers, why should I indulge them?"

The police officer nodded in agreement.

Eugene’s attitude was firm, "If they should be fined, fine them. If they should be detained, detain them. Is it difficult to do what the law prescribes?"

"Not difficult." The police officer had a compassionate heart, thinking these middle-aged women had just been momentarily deceived and made a mistake, but the person involved was firm in their attitude, so they had to act according to the law, "Miss Sinclair can sign here, and then you can leave."

Victoria Sinclair followed the police officer to sign.

At this moment, one of the women beside asked, "She’s leaving, so when can we leave?"

Police officer: "Don’t even think about leaving, call your family to bring a change of clothes for you."

This statement immediately infuriated the group of women, angrily questioning why.

Someone accused Victoria Sinclair of disrupting her brother and sister-in-law’s family and asked the police why she wasn’t being detained.

Victoria Sinclair, after signing, raised her head to look at the woman defaming her, her gentle gaze illuminated with a resolute and fiery light.

The police officer, experienced in dealing with people, could tell Victoria Sinclair was not the kind of unprincipled and easygoing saint.

He hurriedly scolded the foul-mouthed woman, "You shut your mouth. Gathering to create a disturbance at most gets a five-day detention and a two or three hundred fine. If you’re sued for defamation and insult, you won’t be out for two or three years."

The mouthy woman instantly shut her mouth in fear.

Victoria Sinclair walked out of the police station.

She saw Eugene Vaughn in front, making a phone call, and her heart felt a little heavy looking at his back.

Eugene turned, his gaze fixed on her face.

He quickly said a couple of words and hung up, stepping up to Victoria Sinclair.

"Molly has been slandering you online for so long; why didn’t you deal with it or tell me?"

His gentle tone carried a hint of reproach.

Victoria Sinclair was already feeling low-spirited, and now felt even more distressed, "How should I deal with it? Argue with her? Quarrel with her? Have my brother teach her a lesson? Or go to court to sue her?"

If she had a way, things wouldn’t have escalated to this point.

Eugene’s deep eyes dimmed, extremely disappointed, "You never thought of coming to me?"
