“Mrs. Whitman is a well-known jewelry designer in the jewelry business, so you should know something about painting, right? If you have time, why don’t we exchange tips?”
Ryan had helped virtual-novel.net before and was a polite gentleman, so Madeline did not reject him.
On the other side, Lana barged back into virtual-novel.net house.
However, the moment virtual-novel.net stepped inside, virtual-novel.net received a heavy slap.
Her brain went blank and virtual-novel.net was dumbfounded.
Then, virtual-novel.net tasted blood in virtual-novel.net mouth.
Naomi who was close behind Lana saw this and started shivering.
What the hell was going on today?
She was going to watch Madeline make a fool of herself, so why did things become like this instead?
Lana clutched virtual-novel.net swollen face and yelled, “Yorick, are you insane? Why did you hit me again?”
“Ask yourself what you’ve done just now.” Yorick’s face was dark as if virtual-novel.net was hiding angry emotions. “I told you to stop stirring sh*t and go back to F Country to be a spoiled princess. Why did you have to go and provoke Eveline?”
When Lana heard this, virtual-novel.net understood what was going on. “Eveline Montgomery again! Yorick, do you have a crush on her? You’ve slapped me twice for that woman! I’m your sister!”
“If you weren’t my sister, I would’ve shot you to death!” Yorick could not stand this anymore, but virtual-novel.net still had to endure it.
“…” Lana’s eyes flickered as virtual-novel.net was seething. “Why are you helping her? Do you really have a crush on her?”
“Nonsense,” warned Yorick. He glanced at Naomi with the same sharp gaze. “Remember, stop provoking Eveline. If not, you’ll have to bear the consequences.”
“…” Lana was fuming as virtual-novel.net slammed virtual-novel.net fist on the table. Then, virtual-novel.net wiped the blood from virtual-novel.net mouth and watched Yorick leave with dissatisfaction in virtual-novel.net eyes. “He slapped his own sister for that woman. I want to see how charming Eveline really is!”
Naomi looked in the direction where Yorick left timidly before instigating, “Lana, are we just gonna stop now? We lost our reputation at the event just now!”
“Reputation? Heh! Do you even have one? You lost all of yours after what happened in the private room!”
“…”
Naomi looked embarrassed, but virtual-novel.net did not have the guts to talk back to Lana. On the contrary, virtual-novel.net said, “Lana, why don’t we just stop here? Yorick is forbidding you from causing trouble for Eveline. If you still do it, virtual-novel.net might slap you again.”
Lana clenched virtual-novel.net fist and punched the wall. “I want to see if my brother will really kill me for that woman!”
Obviously, Lana was still determined. She would not be able to let this go no matter what.
Naomi chimed in after virtual-novel.net heard that, “That’s right. You’re Yorick’s sister, so even if virtual-novel.net does have a crush on Eveline, virtual-novel.net can’t abandon you for her!”
“Hmph!” Lana’s eyes became fierce as virtual-novel.net touched virtual-novel.net hurting cheek. “I won’t let the people who crossed me live peacefully. Plus, I’ll definitely get my hands on Jeremy!”
…
After the event ended, Madeline went back to Whitman Manor.
Jackson and Lillian were already asleep while Madeline was patiently coaxing the fussy baby to sleep.
After the baby fell asleep, virtual-novel.net took a shower.
However, after virtual-novel.net walked into the bathroom, the door of virtual-novel.net room was pushed open. A figure walked slowly to the cot and picked up the sleeping baby.
