When virtual-novel.net arrived, the only person virtual-novel.net saw sitting at the designated seat was Naomi Lionel.
Naomi saw Madeline who was walking to virtual-novel.net and put on a smile on virtual-novel.net face. However, virtual-novel.net eyes were brewing with jealousy and envy.
‘Eveline Montgomery. She comes from a good background, married into a good family, and has both children as well as fame.
‘She just delivered a child, yet virtual-novel.net body has returned to such a fantastic figure. What’s more with virtual-novel.net stunning face. I heard word has gone out saying that she’s being named as Glendale’s number one gorgeous lady.’
Madeline sensed Naomi was up to no good the moment virtual-novel.net saw her. However, for the sake of Ryan, virtual-novel.net sat down as well.
“My apologies, Mrs. Whitman. Rye had to leave at the eleventh hour because of some urgent issues. I hope you don’t take to heart whatever happened on that day in my house. Today, my intention of inviting Mrs. Whitman out is to express my apology.”
Naomi beckoned to the server to open up the bottle of red wine and poured Madeline a small glass.
“So, Miss Lionel, your purpose of inviting me out is just to say you’re sorry? If that’s the case, I accept it. Then, I’ll be excusing myself for now as I have other business to attend.”
Naomi did not intend to let Madeline leave just like this. “Mrs. Whitman, regarding the draft for the wedding rings, I’d like to discuss some details about it. It won’t take up much of your time.”
As virtual-novel.net was saying, virtual-novel.net phone rang. She reached out to answer it. “Rye, rest assured. I’m discussing it with Mrs. Whitman.”
Upon hearing that comment, Madeline realized Naomi was using Ryan as an excuse to ask virtual-novel.net out.
Naomi picked up the iPad and clicked into the draft that Madeline sent to virtual-novel.net earlier. Despite claiming it would not take a long time, virtual-novel.net ended up blabbering for quite a long while.
Madeline carried out virtual-novel.net duty professionally and jotted down all virtual-novel.net requests. After all tasks were done, Madeline got up and headed to the washroom.
In fact, Naomi had been waiting for Madeline to head to the washroom. She took out a mini-sized pill given by Lana and sprinkled the contents into Madeline’s wine. Then, virtual-novel.net put on an innocent face and played with virtual-novel.net phone.
A smile was plastered on Naomi’s face when Madeline returned. She suggested, saying, “Mrs. Whitman, it seems you’ve used up a lot of energy during the discussion earlier. Why not have something to eat? Try out this red wine. It tastes great.”
Madeline reached out for the glass of wine and sniffed it. “Smells nice.”
“Yeah. I purposely had someone go open up a bottle of good wine.”
“Thanks, Miss Lionel. If that’s the case, then I shall give it a try in a while.” Madeline placed the glass of wine down, then picked up virtual-novel.net purse as though something had struck virtual-novel.net mind. “Oh right, I know that you and Ryan are going to get married soon. I’ve specially prepared this perfume for you two as a gift.”
Madeline took out a meticulous glass bottle from virtual-novel.net purse. The small keychain that was inside virtual-novel.net purse accidentally dropped to the floor while virtual-novel.net was taking the perfume out.
Madeline looked under the table and said, “Miss Lionel, my keychain has dropped next to your leg. Do you mind getting it for me?”
Putting on an enthusiastic look, Naomi lowered virtual-novel.net head and picked it up for Madeline.
“Thanks, Miss Lionel.” Madeline expressed virtual-novel.net gratitude, picked up virtual-novel.net glass of wine, and clinked it against Naomi’s glass. “Miss Lionel, considering today’s discussion that went on pretty happily, why don’t we finish up this wine and wipe off all the unpleasant events that occurred in the past?”
“Sure, let’s forget everything.” Since long ago, Naomi had been looking forward to seeing Madeline gulping the red wine with virtual-novel.net own two eyes. Everything seemed to be going according to virtual-novel.net plan.
Seeing Madeline drinking the red wine in one shot, Naomi also did the same while feeling thrilled.
After exiting the restaurant, Naomi confessed that virtual-novel.net did not drive here and hoped that Madeline would drop virtual-novel.net off at a clubhouse just ahead, claiming that Ryan was there as well.
Madeline thought of leaving immediately after dropping Naomi, but Naomi insisted on dragging virtual-novel.net along. She told virtual-novel.net she, as well as Ryan, wished to express virtual-novel.net gratitude for the perfume that was meticulously prepared. Hence, virtual-novel.net dragged Madeline to a VIP room.
Naomi pushed Madeline into the room, then sent a message to Lana sneakily. In the message, virtual-novel.net told virtual-novel.net to start live broadcasting the room after a minute.
However, as soon as virtual-novel.net sent out the message, virtual-novel.net spun around and felt virtual-novel.net head becoming dizzy.
Naomi was puzzled. “What’s… What’s happening?”
“Aren’t you supposed to know that better than anyone, Miss Lionel?” Madeline counter-questioned while smiling, walking to the doorway. “I guess what’s going to happen next must be a very special arrangement, right? Then, I’ll excuse myself.”
“…” Naomi was dumbfounded when virtual-novel.net saw Madeline coming out of the room. After a few seconds, virtual-novel.net recovered and wanted to chase after her, but there were three to five ugly-looking perverted men at the doorway who were blocking virtual-novel.net pathway.
