Chapter 439
“Shut up!” Jeremy roared angrily.
Yvonne immediately kept quiet out of fear. She saw a coldness in Jeremy’s eyes and did not even dare to breathe too loudly.
Jeremy walked past Yvonne and his mother as he approached Madeline. When he saw Madeline’s displeased expression, he asked gently, “Are you full? If you are, then let’s go home.”
Madeline got up slowly, her arrogant eyes scanning across Yvonne and Jeremy’s mother. She said slowly, “I don’t want to eat anymore. How can I have an appetite when I’m facing those people.”
“…”
Jeremy’s mother exploded immediately. “Jeremy, did you hear that? She’s talking about me with that kind of attitude!”
Madeline smiled coldly. “So what if I’m talking to you that way? Do you think I’ll let you bully me like Madeline?”
“Y-You…” Jeremy’s mother was at a loss for words. “Vera Quinn, what do you mean? Are you outraged by the injustice Madeline suffered? How interesting. But you can’t stop me from scolding her when she is a b*tch! She said Meredith was framing her, but if she had behaved well, who would have wanted to harm her?
“That heartless b*tch slashed my grandson’s face and I still haven’t avenged my grandson for that. Thankfully, she’s dead now. If not, I will never forgive her!”
“I told you to shut up! Didn’t you hear? Do you want me to get angry?” Jeremy was livid now, and his eyes were filled with ice. “Madeline was proven to be Miss Montgomery. Do you dare to say all these to Eloise and Sean?”
“…” His mother pressed her lips together in awkwardness.
When she found out that Madeline was the Montgomeries’ daughter, she was completely stunned.
Madeline was a feral child who was brought up by a mentally ill old man but she turned out to be the young lady from the influential Montgomery family. She refused to accept this.
Back then, she even curried flavor with Eloise. She said it would be amazing if they could be in-laws. In the end, Madeline’s true identity came back and slapped her across the face.
The room plunged into silence as Jeremy’s gaze softened. “Vera, let’s go back.”
Madeline released her tightly clenched fists as she glared at Jeremy’s mother with an icy gaze that was filled with flames of anger.
