Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 103

Everything seemed to slow to a halt.

It would still be believable if Nathaniel admitted that he had only taken Ada’s side for Christina.

“You would do all that for that brat?” Julia said disdainfully, her tone tinged with resentment.

Her resentment, however, was targeted at Christina.

Nathaniel crossed his arms as his handsome face revealed a cold, somber expression. “If you had accepted her in the first place, we wouldn’t need to have this conversation.”

Christina had only suffered in the Hadley residence for so long because of Julia. Nathaniel couldn’t be with her all the time, but he wanted to at least make sure she was safe.

Julia scoffed as if she had just heard a bad joke. “I’ll never accept her. Stop dreaming.”

Not even in her wildest dreams would she ever allow lowly little brat to marry into the Hadley family.

Nathaniel knew his mother’s stubbornness better than anyone and wasn’t planning on an argument. “I’ll come and pick Ms. Ada up in three days. I hope to see her unscathed.”

After that, he stood up and strode out calmly.

Sebastian hurriedly followed suit. The mother-son relationship that had barely been mended after so long had once returned to a standstill.

He wondered when Julia and Nathaniel could finally be on good terms again.

Meanwhile, Christina was blowing her mask dry in the room. Luckily, the voice changer was still working. If it had been broken, she wouldn’t have been able to continue even if Nathaniel didn’t stop

her.

She put on her disguise, which included a checkered shawl that practically swallowed up her petite figure.

Her mask sufficiently covered her slender face.

Christina walked downstairs and met eyes with Madison, who had just walked out of the guest room, freshly dressed. Their gazes sparked with animosity.

“Mrs. Hadley, as your guest, shouldn’t you give me an explanation as to why I was treated the way I was in your humble abode?”

The crowd fell silent and glanced at each other awkwardly at Ada’s words.

To them, the petite woman was a little strange, but she also seemed like someone who was easy to manipulate because of how sheltered she acted.

It was rather out of character for them to see her act so firmly.

Julia raised an eyebrow. She was somehow more interested in this demanding side of the petite lady. “Madison said you were the one who fell, and she simply wanted to help you. What further explanation could you possibly need?”

Chapter 103 I Will Never Accept Her

+15 Bonus

Madison felt like her heart was being held up by a single thread of fishing line. Even her heartbeat felt unstable. She had no idea that Ada would demand an explanation from her.

Christina looked down at Madison from the stairs. “You were the one who pushed me. I must say, Ms. Taggart, you’re as good at twisting the truth as you are at hiding it.”

“What did you say?” Madison was taken aback by her jab.

Is she calling me fake?

Christina wasn’t just going to let things go so easily. If she didn’t give Madison a proper warning this time, she knew she was about to have a hard time trying to design the clothes in peace.

Madison carefully plastered an expression of hurt and betrayal as tears began to form in her eyes. “You were the one who almost fell. I was just trying to help you! I can’t believe you thought I would hurt you. How could you blatantly lie like that?”

Blatant lie? Christina was finally beginning to see Madison for who she truly was.

She stepped closer to Madison. “You were the one who got the maid to lead me to the swimming pool. Sure, I won’t deny that you wanted to talk to me. I just didn’t expect that the talk would get interrupted. by you pushing me into the pool.”

Madison’s expression soured after she heard the woman’s words.

There was nothing she could do to deny it further as all Julia had to do was ask the maid about what happened.
