Chapter 442
How would Karen be satisfied with that? However, she did not have a choice, so she could only leave while fuming.
Yvonne puffed up her cheeks and gritted her teeth in anger. However, she could only follow Karen out of the meeting room.
“Aunt Karen, Vera is so despicable! It’s fine that she doesn’t respect me, but she doesn’t even want to respect you in front of all those heads of departments!”
Yvonne felt indignant and she started egging Karen on.
“Aunt Karen, since Jeremy isn’t around, you should crack down on Vera’s spirits and teach her a lesson! If not, she’ll think that she’s the boss.”
Karen scoffed. “You’re right. Tonight, I’ll let her know who’s the real boss.”
A few moments after the meeting, Madeline got a call from Whitman Manor. The caller told her that Old Master Whitman wanted her to drop by tonight.
If it was six years ago, Madeline would believe that it was the old master who wanted to see her. However, after her death, she would not be so naive anymore.
Yet, Madeline still went.
She grabbed her bag and clicked her heels as she sashayed into the living room.
Karen and Yvonne had already prepared a trap for Madeline. When they saw her, Karen displayed a fake smile on her face.
“My dear daughter-in-law is here. Let’s start dinner then,” she said weirdly. Then, she looked at Madeline’s shoes. “Say, you’re pregnant and you’re still wearing high heels. What if you fall, Vera?”
Yvonne smirked and chimed in, saying, “Yeah, Vera. How can you wear such tall heels? What if you fall and have a miscarriage? You would want to give birth to this child with no complications, tight? The mother’s honor increases as her child’s position rises. Your child will inherit such a huge business in the future.”
