Betrayed and Dumped: She Rose Stronger Than Ever novel Chapter 261

Madison nearly choked on her coffee, eyes going wide. “Wait, how much did you just say?”

Lottie just grinned. “Fifty million. That’s not really a big deal for the Terry family, right? And it’s not like I’m making it up. I mean, I’m pregnant now, so I’ll need someone to look after me. My check-ups should be at the best private hospital. After the baby comes, I’ll need to rest and take care of it. Later, there’s private school, and when the kid is older, they’ll probably study abroad. It all adds up.”

Madison stared at her, completely stunned. Lottie went on, “Maybe you don’t realize how crazy things are these days. Education is so competitive. I have to give my child every chance. You wouldn’t want your grandson falling behind, would you?”

She picked up her bag, ready to leave.

“Don’t you dare! If you go to my husband, you’ll never see a single cent from me!” Madison snapped, her voice full of venom.

People always envied the life of a rich wife, but no one knew what it was really like. For over twenty years, her husband treated her like his housekeeper, snapping at her for the tiniest things. If he found out she couldn’t handle this, he might slap her for this
