The Young Master in the Shadows

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.

“At least give me your name, so I can ask your pimp.” He added after seeing her not responding.

Hearing him she almost spit blood, this guy’s tongue was very poisonous.

“Mr. Victor, no need for such plays.” She said elegantly.

“Sorry Miss Charlotte, after seeing your beauty I couldn't help myself,” He said, making her angrier. “What do you mean after seeing my beauty? Do I look like a prostitute?” She thought silently and decided to ignore him.

Victor ignored her too, he wanted to grab Margret who was holding her laugh, and let her sit on his lap, but decided not to do that after seeing the people approaching him.

“Mr. White, we will meet again.” Mark Silberberg the movie director said respectfully, as he grabbed a hesitating young woman and brought her forward.

"Mr. White, let me introduce you, this is Mira Elven our new rising star. she probably doesn't need my introduction." Mark said, "What are you doing Mira quickly greet the young master."

The girl, Mira slowly bowed elegantly, “Nice to meet you, Mr. White,” She said coldly, making Victor smile as he looked at her. She was wearing a sky blue gown with a pink exotic flower pin on her hair.

Mira Elven, a girl who was 59.3% on the Lily scale, was one of his past girlfriends. Right now she appeared only a little prettier than Margret, but Victor knew that she used her makeup to make herself a little ugly. A very smart girl.

He really liked this one, too bad his brother Max had her handle and used it to steal her from Victor. And now, Victor will use that same handle to get her. This girl made him chase after her for eight months before she accepted him to be her boyfriend, and he didn’t want to do the same this time.

“Come, Mira, sit on my lap and let me appreciate your beauty,” Victor said, making her flinch and bite her lip but she obeyed, and silently sat on his lap under the watchful eyes of the guests. No one was surprised, as she was just a little star, while he was her boss. Some women were a little displeased but that‘s it.

Margret was a little surprised, Mira has a reputation of being a clean girl that didn’t do those things. Was she secretly a slut? She doesn’t smell like one. “Well, at least I will have a new sister.” She thought as she stood behind Victor pinching his shoulders so that he would not forget about her.

Victor smiled at Margret then Looked at the sad Mira.

A bloodline? He didn’t know about that. But looking at it again, can a girl with such beauty not have something like that? But why didn’t the family notice?

Mira was a servant from his family. The reason she was allowed to be an actress was that her father who was also a servant made some accomplishments in the family. He requested that his daughter should be allowed to live a normal life at the very least. And the family agreed that as long as no one wanted her she could do that.

But she was still an unclaimed servant girl after all, and if a family member wanted her he could easily take her. So she hid the fact that she was a servant. And only went to occasions like this party when she had no other choice. She knew that being an actress would be her demise, but she really liked to act.

When Rex found out about her he branded her immediately. And when he finished with her, he killed her then threw her corpse at Victor. He didn’t do this to take revenge on Victor but on his Big brother who stole Rex’s favorite girl. And Victor was too easy to bully back then.

Victor silently took out his token and pointed at Mira then hid it back again. Now, no one would be able to take you from me again.

The only people who noticed him were Margret who pinched him a little harder and Charlotte who puked in her mouth. She thought that this guy was feigning being a pervert, but after she saw the way he looked at Mira she concluded that this one was the real deal.

Mira, who felt the change, wanted to cry. The freedom that her father traded his hard work for was over. Now, she can only resign herself to her grim fate.

“Mr. Silberberg, That movie you told me about last time. I will accept to finance it on the condition that Mira and John Sigma do the leading roles.” Victor said to the little embarrassed Mark Silberberg, making Mira flinch in surprise. She really wanted that role.

“Really young master? That would be great. I will contact John right away.” Mike said as he retreated.

“Susan, write it down,” Victor said to Susan who stumbled as she took out a notebook from her purse.

“As useless as ever, How could I be so blind in my past life?” he thought as he brushed Mira’s familiar black hair.

“Thank you for giving me this chance, young master.” She said softly. She really wanted to be in that movie. But she was still a beginner, and no producer would give her the lead role.

“I just don’t want to waste your talent. You are mine anyway.” He said, making her nod, she understood that this was her destiny. But at the very least he would let her act.

“I have to tell my agent.” She said softly,

“Then go, just be sure to meet me here before we leave.” He said.

She nodded respectfully then left his lap and went to find her agent.

“My lap is too cold, miss Charlotte, can warm it for me?” He asked Charlotte who was watching Mira with interest. Making her look at him then spit and decide to go socialize away from this scumbag.

“I can do it for you, young master,” Margret said from behind him.

“You are too hot for that, I am afraid to be burnt.” He said, making Margret chuckle. Her young master may appear to be a pervert, but she has just confirmed her guess. This guy is playing everyone. Better than Tom who only knew how to run behind women.

“Wah … Tom.” She yelped before she put her hand on her lips, she just realized that the pervert from before was Tom. They have gone to the swimming pool together before, and she is very familiar with his entire body, she has checked him thoroughly.

Tom was a pervert, but not an idiot, so why would he attack Linda? unless…

“How do you control him?” She whispered in Victor’s ear,

“I will tell you someday. But not now. Don’t tell anyone.” Victor who understood her said as he pinched her hand on his shoulder. This girl is too smart for her own good.

Soon many guests began to approach Victor and greet him one by one. Most of those belonged to his family or the other families in the city. And they would not miss the chance to get to know him. If he decided to grant them some random project they would be able to get a lot of benefits.

“Young master, I am Lucas. The son of Alvin, the CEO of white Investments.” a young man finally came and bowed to Victor. He was trying really hard not to look at Margret.

Victor quickly realized that he was the piece of shit that trapped Iris. so he looked at him with a smile,

“Oh, Lucas. My sister told me about you.” Victor said with a smile.

“Ah, really.” Lucas was surprised not knowing what to say. He didn’t know who that sister was, but he was handsome, and many young girls were fascinated by him.

“Yes, too bad she was a little busy. She would definitely be excited when I tell her I met you. Maybe you would get to have a private meeting with her when she returns.” Victor said, deciding to leave this idiot for Iris to train her hand.

“That would be my honor, young master.” He said with a smile, not mentioning anything about his big brother Malcolm who was sent to another city. He had no chance to inherit the family business before, now this was his chance. And if he could marry this young master’s sister, he would be able to become a giant businessman like his father. But what if the sister was ugly? Does it matter? No.

Victor, who could easily read Lucas’s mind nodded, then continued to greet and talk to the guests as Margret fed him some snacks from a dish that she brought.

Soon the party came to an end. Charlotte never returned to her seat, she went outside for some air and maybe threw herself from the building for all Victor cared.

Mira returned and approached Victor as he stood up to leave.

“Young master, do you need me to accompany you tonight?” She asked, keeping her face down. Victor knew that she didn’t want to go with him. In his last life, it took him a lot of effort to get her on his bed.

“No need, I will be leaving the city tomorrow morning so I don’t have time. I just wanted to give you my number.” He said as he took her phone and sent some things to it.

“The first is my number, while the second is my butlers. If you need anything, call him.” Victor said, making Mira raise her head and look at him with surprise. Wasn’t he a pervert?

“Don’t look at me like that. Your turn would come, but I didn’t finish eating Margret yet. And I want you to move into my mansion, but that would have to wait until later as far as I know you will be busy filming out of town.” He said with a smile, making her nod, did he investigate her schedule?

“Do you have a ride?” He asked her.

“Yes, my agent will drive me,” she said,

“Take care of yourself,” He said then spanked her on her butt. She yelped in surprise.

“Let’s go.” He said as he turned to face Margret Holding her hand and leaving the hall.

Mira stood there stunned, looking at him and rubbing her butt. He was definitely a pervert.

…

Linda Silently entered her house just as her father was leaving, He glared at her and left without saying anything.

She sighed and headed towards her mother’s study room and knocked on the door after she adjusted her newly bought clothes.

“Get in.” Amelia Von Rosen said, making Linda open the door slowly to enter the study then stand silently waiting for her mother to speak.

“I already heard. That Victor was probably taking revenge on you.” Amelia said.

““Mother, I…, Do you mean he knew that we were the ones behind the rumors?” Linda asked with a frown.

“That’s uncertain, he might be a real pervert. In the morning, he was seen taking his maids to go shopping.” Amelia said, “No matter what, this marriage has to go on.” she added.

“Mother but… He hates me. He humiliated me at the party. I am sure that guy, in the end, was sent by him as all the hotel’s cameras happened to be broken when we asked for the footage.” Linda said.

“Oh, That’s better. It means he has the brains, maybe he will be able to get a good position in his family in the future.” Amelia said.

“But…Can’t we change the groom?..I...” Linda wanted to argue,

“I will not repeat myself, you have to marry him. And make sure not to sleep with him before the wedding night. As I told you before, your virginity is important for our plans.” Amelia said, “You can leave.” She added as she flipped a document on her desk and began to inspect it, missing the frightened look in her daughter’s eyes.

“Yes, mother,” Linda said as she escaped the room.

“Shit, I am screwed. What does she mean AS I TOLD YOU? That bitch tells me nothing.” Linda cursed, If Victor really knew what she did and told her mother she would be punished heavily if they check on her, they might even kill her. Wait. She quickly went to her room and dial one of her friends' numbers.

“Hi Kuku, It’s me. Last year you told me that you had an operation to restore your virginity, do you still have the doctor’s number?”
