“I might as well tell you this. This recording, before it was in your hands, I had already asked the staff back at the restaurant. I wouldn’t have displayed this recording if it wasn’t for you guys blaming me.
“Naomi, you started this first. You invited yourself into this mess.”
“Eveline, you…” Naomi was flushing out of anger. Unable to suppress the rage within her, Naomi raised virtual-novel.net hand and was about to slap Madeline.
However, just as virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net hand, Ryan’s father bestowed virtual-novel.net a tight slap across the face.
“You’re one hell of a shameless lady. You’ve committed such a crime, yet you’re still putting on an innocent look. You misled us to accuse another innocent person. I’m telling you, I’ll cancel the wedding between you and Ryan. The Joneses will never accept such a lady like you as our daughter-in-law!”
Ryan’s parents were apoplectic with rage as they announced their statement publicly and left the scene while feeling exasperated.
Karen stopped them and said with a stern expression, “Are you guys thinking of leaving just like that? You owe my daughter-in-law an apology.”
Ryan’s parents knew they had wronged Madeline. With their faces flushed scarlet, they apologized to Madeline.
Then, they left the scene while dragging Ryan along with them.
Ryan glanced at Madeline apologetically before leaving.
Naomi quickly went ahead to catch up to them. With many people taking pictures of her, virtual-novel.net buried virtual-novel.net face in virtual-novel.net palms and fled anxiously.
Among the crowd, there were a few still in discussion while some offered their apologies to Madeline.
Karen waved virtual-novel.net hands, blocking the crowd at the doorway before closing the door.
In the ward, there were only Karen and Madeline there, but Karen was feeling rather restless.
She put on a tough look as though virtual-novel.net was not bothered and placed the soup virtual-novel.net had brewed down. “I’ll excuse myself for now as I have other things to attend.”
Karen did not dare to look into Madeline’s eyes and strolled to the doorway.
Madeline stared at Karen’s back and let out a gentle smile. “Thanks, Mom.”
“…” Karen’s hand which was grasping the doorknob fumbled. Her legs felt heavy as though they were filled with lead.
The corners of virtual-novel.net eyes were drenched with tears as virtual-novel.net felt utterly bashful.
“Mom’s soup is the best. I haven’t had the chance to taste in the past, but for the coming month, I’ll be sure to drink it to my heart’s content.”
Tears finally came streaming down Karen’s face when virtual-novel.net heard the comment.
However, virtual-novel.net still did not dare to face Madeline directly.
All these years, virtual-novel.net was always going against Madeline, giving in to other people’s provocations and always muttering curses at Madeline.
Although Madeline could let go of all the grudges, virtual-novel.net still could not forgive herself.
Karen lowered virtual-novel.net head, opened the door, and quickly left the room.
Madeline understood Karen’s feelings. Perhaps virtual-novel.net would need some time to compose herself and accept virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net daughter-in-law.
As for the incident that occurred earlier, Madeline was positive that Lana was the mastermind who added fuel to the flames.
After Lana got to know of the entire incident, virtual-novel.net got so mad that virtual-novel.net kept cursing and swearing at Madeline.
Just when virtual-novel.net was thinking of a strategy to defeat Madeline, Yorick called. Lana was told to head back to F Country as a business case that virtual-novel.net was in charge of had bumped into some problems.
Lana was not satisfied to head back just like that. However, virtual-novel.net was left with no other options. As such, virtual-novel.net decided to have Jeremy go against Madeline.
‘Only by having Jeremy torture virtual-novel.net will Madeline suffer.’
Currently, Jeremy heeded every instruction given by Lana. After knowing that Madeline had to be hospitalized in a VIP ward, virtual-novel.net immediately went over that night to seek trouble with Madeline.
Madeline had unbuttoned half of virtual-novel.net shirt and was breastfeeding Pudding when suddenly, the door of the ward was pushed open.
