Chapter 77
Natalie was a great actress. However, Madelyn thought her
manipulative skills were mediocre compared to Elena’s.
The latter had a knack for bending the Miller and Garcia families to her will. Had Madelyn not caught Elena off guard, she wouldn’t have so easily fallen into her current predicament.
After placing the phone back on the coffee table, Madelyn returned to her book, trying to maintain a facade of normalcy.
Just then, the office door swung open again. Madelyn kept her head down, assuming someone was delivering some documents. However, the person stood in front of her.
Madelyn looked up when she saw a pair of impeccably polished leather shoes before her.
“Did you really reconcile with him?” Easton’s voice carried a tinge of sadness.
Madelyn used to not visit Andrew’s office before. But lately, she had been accompanying him to various events and even dropping by his workplace.
Madelyn closed the book she was holding and glared at the man. before her. Memories of Easton’s ruthlessness in her previous life flashed before her eyes.
Before Madelyn could speak, Easton continued, “He’s not a good man. I advise you to leave him as soon as possible. If you regret it, my previous offer still stands. I’ve made the arrangements abroad.”
“Do you dare to say that in front of Andrew?” Madelyn retorted.
Easton’s expression hardened, a flash of anger igniting in his eyes.
Madelyn let out a chuckle. She couldn’t remember how she had fallen In love with Easton in her previous life.
Easton was clearly in cahoots with Elena. Madelyn didn’t seem to have memories of them. It was as though she was hit on the head and suffered from selective amnesia.
After a brief contemplation, Easton regained his composure, “Maddie, this is not the time to be angry with me.”
“Who’s angry with you?”
Suddenly, a stern voice echoed from the doorway. It was Andrew.
Easton froze. Madelyn looked past him and saw Andrew standing at the door.
Had Easton not closed the door when he entered earlier? No wonder he was in cahoots with Elena. Was he trying to have someone from the secretary department overhear and spread the word to Andrew?
