Madeline looked at the smiling man in surprise. “Did you just say I saved you, Mr. Jones?”
Ryan was taken aback when virtual-novel.net heard that. Then, virtual-novel.net nodded.
“I don’t know if you remember this, though.” Ryan held a coin in between his fingers.
Madeline shook virtual-novel.net head in confusion. “No.”
“So you’ve indeed forgotten about it.” Ryan chuckled in slight disappointment. When virtual-novel.net was about to explain, Mrs. Jones walked in.
Compared to virtual-novel.net aggressive attitude that day, virtual-novel.net looked much friendlier and approachable this time.
“I heard about what happened to your house, Miss Montgomery. If you don’t have a place to go for the time being, you can stay in our guest room. I’m sorry for what happened before and I hope you don’t take it to heart.”
Madeline placed the cup down and got out of bed. “Thank you for your kindness, Mrs. Jones. It was just a misunderstanding, so I won’t take it to heart.”
She looked at the time and noticed it was the next morning.
“I need to go now. Thank you, Mr. Jones.”
“You don’t have to be in such a rush. You can clean up and have some breakfast first. I’ll send you to wherever you want to go later.” Ryan was extremely courteous.
Madeline figured that it would not be appropriate for virtual-novel.net to go out like this, so virtual-novel.net accepted Ryan’s offer.
After virtual-novel.net cleaned herself up, virtual-novel.net changed into the clothes that the maids fetched virtual-novel.net under Ryan’s orders before going downstairs.
After virtual-novel.net ate some breakfast, virtual-novel.net got into Ryan’s car and arrived in front of Whitman Corporation.
Madeline thanked Ryan before walking to the front door. However, an angry voice called out virtual-novel.net name all of a sudden from behind, “Eveline Montgomery!”
Madeline stopped in virtual-novel.net tracks and saw Naomi charging over at virtual-novel.net with a malicious look on virtual-novel.net face.
“You’re indeed seducing Rye!” Naomi pointed at Madeline’s clothes angrily. “These are the clothes that I had my eyes on! Ryan ordered them for me online and now they’re on you!”
Naomi was getting more and more furious as virtual-novel.net spoke. There were also jealousy and hatred behind virtual-novel.net gaze.
“Last night, I saw virtual-novel.net carrying you into the house and you only came out this morning. Eveline, how dare you say the tabloids and paparazzi are the ones spreading rumors about you? You and Ryan are indeed having an affair!”
It was working hours. Many employees and passersby were looking over at them when they saw this happening.
Naomi folded virtual-novel.net arms across virtual-novel.net chest. “This is the number one socialite in Glendale, Eveline Montgomery. The moment virtual-novel.net husband died, virtual-novel.net came to seduce my fiancé. She’s such a fickle wh*re!”
“Shut up!”
Ryan got out of the car and hurried over to stop Naomi from slandering Madeline.
“Naomi, I’ve broken up with you. Plus, Mrs. Whitman and I are only friends, so don’t spew anymore nonsense.”
Naomi was infuriated. “Rye, I dated you for two years and you’re treating me this way because of this fickle woman?”
“Ryan, you’re so protective of Eveline that it’s hard for people not to misunderstand you two.” Lana’s voice sounded.
Madeline looked at the man next to Lana and clenched virtual-novel.net fists.
Lana laughed while feeling pleased with herself. She looked at everyone around virtual-novel.net and stood in front of Madeline. “Eveline, Naomi and I are here. It’s time for you to kneel and apologize to us.”
“What? Kneel and apologize?” Everyone went crazy when they heard that.
“Who is this woman? How dare virtual-novel.net ask Mrs. Whitman to apologize to her?”
Lana curled virtual-novel.net red lips and smirked arrogantly. “You don’t need to know who I am. You just have to know that someone will kneel here and beg for forgiveness. You just need to watch.”
Naomi was surprised when virtual-novel.net heard that.
Lana walked in front of Madeline. “Eveline, what are you waiting for? Perhaps, you want to see Jeremy taking action against your son? If you want your son to meet your parents in hell, then just stand still!”
Lana threatened. After virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net turned around to leave.
Madeline quickly reached out virtual-novel.net hand and grabbed Lana’s wrist. “You’re right. Someone is going to kneel and apologize, but that person is not me. It’s you!”
