Chapter 221
Madeleine clicked her tongue. “Now, now, you shouldn’t talk
about yourself like that.”
Edward’s expression darkened even more.
With Roderick and Madeleine playing off each other, Edward’s face instantly turned beet red, looking like he’d been forced to
swallow shit.
Of course, he couldn’t lose face in front of them, so he took a deep breath.
He forced himself to calm down.
“A mere five billion, you don’t really think that’s enough to take
me down, do you?”
“We never meant that. Mr. Carroll is the new star of the
industry. We’ve all seen what you can do. Forget 5 billion, even
50 billion probably means nothing to you, right?”
Edward’s anger shot up from the soles of his feet.
More than the money, he felt like he’d been slapped across the
Chapter 221
face. It burned. He, Edward, had actually been played by
Roderick and Madeleine!
Just looking at Edward’s face, Madeleine could barely hold back
her laughter.
“Honey, the air in here is awful. Let’s go home.”
“Okay, whatever you say.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them acted as if
Edward wasn’t even there and sweetly walked out.
Outside the venue.
The crowd dispersed. Madeleine and Roderick came out,
holding hands. They were looking down, talking about
something, and then they both started laughing.
Just like that, they looked like a couple head over heels in love.
Not far away, Rebecca watched this scene and rolled her eyes
to the heavens.
She really wanted to post something on a clickbait social media
account right now.

Madeleine looked up and saw Rebecca, quickly waving to her
with her other hand.
“Rebecca, sweetie~”
Rebecca’s eyes, which had just rolled up, came right back down.
Well, since she called her “sweetie,” she’d forgive her husband.
“So? So? You saw all that just now, right? Wasn’t that
satisfying?”
Rebecca really didn’t understand how Madeleine managed to
be so cheerful every day.
What was even stranger was that she seemed to be easily infected by Madeleine’s smile too.
“It was pretty satisfying. He spent so much, he’ll probably have
to tighten his belt on projects for the next few years.”
Madeleine thought for a moment and pouted, “Actually, it
wasn’t that satisfying…“.
If it weren’t for him, the Mosley family wouldn’t be in this situation today.

How could the world be like this?
She couldn’t figure it out.
Of course, she didn’t need to figure it out right now.
She had someone she loved by her side, who could even help
her fight against the injustices of fate. Wasn’t that pretty great?
“Should we plan a celebration dinner tonight?”
Madeleine cheered up, looking at the two of them with a smile.
Rebecca clicked her tongue. “We didn’t even get the project.
What’s there to celebrate?”
“Not getting it is way more satisfying than getting it. Ugh, I’m just happy thinking about how someone is going to be too
angry to sleep tonight.”
“I really don’t know what to do with you.”
Rebecca looked annoyed, but she couldn’t help the corners of
her mouth from turning up.
After she spoke, she thought of something else and looked up at Roderick. “By the way, I’ll have to count on you to handle things at the Livingston Group for a while.”

Roderick had already guessed. “Planning to go back to the
Whitman group?”
“Yeah, there’s a new policy that just came out, and I want to
seize this opportunity.”
She shrugged as she spoke, looking a bit helpless. “It’s a shame
I couldn’t win over Adrian, but maybe there will be other
chances.”
“Let me know if you need help with anything.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t hesitate to ask.”
Rebecca said, waving her hand. “I won’t disturb your private
time. I have things to do, so I’m leaving. You two go have your
