Chapter 1265
Ryan’s heart was pumping hard when he saw the maid being all anxious.
He was worried that something might have happened to Madeline. He shoved Naomi’s hand away and sprinted to the bedroom.
However, as soon as he entered the bedroom, there was a loud bang and a vase was suddenly smashed beside his leg.
Slivers of the broken vase pieces almost had slit his face, but Ryan did not dodge.
He stepped right on the pieces of the broken vase and walked into the room.
Madeline was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window. The dishes served by the maids were all scattered on the floor while fresh blood was dripping down beside Madeline’s leg. The blood came from her finger.
Nevertheless, she did not move an inch and kept standing under the blazing sunlight of summer like a noble statue.
“Get out,” Ryan ordered both the maids.
Despite him blurting out icy cold comments, he had a warm expression on her face. It was rather contradicting.
The maids did not delay any further and quickly ran out.
Naomi had followed after Ryan, but before she could even have a look at what was going on in the room, the maids were hurriedly running out and closed the door shut.
“What’s going on inside? What did that woman, Eveline, do?” Naomi asked out of curiosity.
The maids just looked at Naomi and got down to their knees to clean up the pieces of the broken vase at the doorway.
Naomi clenched her teeth and glared at the door that was closed shut, feeling dissatisfied. She changed her mind and thought back to the request Ryan mentioned earlier. It made her heart tremble. She gradually raised her hand and touched her face, then slowly, a wicked smile was plastered on her face…
In the room.
Ryan sauntered to Madeline’s side.
