Chapter 82
Madeline clutched her aching right cheek. She was confused.
“Madeline, you vile woman! You evil witch!” Eloise shrieked as she pointed at Madeline’s nose.
Madeline did not understand why she felt so horrible when she saw Eloise’s piercing gaze.
“Mrs. Montgomery, why did you hit me?” Madeline tried to keep calm but her heart was beating fiercely.
“You still have the cheek to ask me why?” Eloise pointed at Madeline furiously. “You kidnapped my grandson with another person and you bullied my precious daughter, Meredith! Now, you’re even inciting another man to make him side with you. He sent Mer a lawyer’s letter and said she deliberately assaulted someone with hot coffee!”
As she said that, she threw the letter angrily at Madeline’s face.
“Madeline, you’re such an evil woman! Thank god your parents died early, if not, they’d die from shame! If you’re my daughter, I would have kicked you out of the family!”
As Madeline heard Eloise yelling at her, each one of her words stabbed in her heart like shards of glass.
She understood now. Eloise came all the way here to vent for her precious daughter, Meredith.
Heh.
What a great mother. She did not know the truth nor what happened. However, mothers would always believe their children unconditionally, right?
Madeline felt tears sting the corners of her eyes. She felt as if her heart had been clenched by an invisible hand. She felt so horrible that it hurt when she breathed.
“Madeline, I’m warning you, don’t think you can go anything just because you have people backing you up! I’ll do double to you what you did to Mer and my grandson!”
Eloise pointed at Madeline with her warning. Then, she turned around with a dark expression on her face.
“I thought they just have the same name, but I didn’t expect her to be that Madeline Crawford.”
“She’s the one who stole her boyfriend and caused her sister to miscarry.”
“Tch, are we going to work with someone like this from now on?”
