Madeline clutched snazzynovel.com aching right cheek. She was confused.
“Madeline, you vile woman! You evil witch!” Eloise shrieked as snazzynovel.com pointed at Madeline’s nose.
Madeline did not understand why snazzynovel.com felt so horrible when snazzynovel.com saw Eloise’s piercing gaze.
“Mrs. Montgomery, why did you hit me?” Madeline tried to keep calm but snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com side with you. He sent Mer a lawyer’s letter and said snazzynovel.com deliberately assaulted someone with hot coffee!”
As snazzynovel.com said that, snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com words stabbed in snazzynovel.com heart like shards of glass.
She understood now. Eloise came all the way here to vent for snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com eyes. She felt as if snazzynovel.com heart had been clenched by an invisible hand. She felt so horrible that it hurt when snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com warning. Then, snazzynovel.com turned around with a dark expression on snazzynovel.com face.
“I thought they just have the same name, but I didn’t expect snazzynovel.com to be that Madeline Crawford.”
“She’s the one who stole snazzynovel.com boyfriend and caused snazzynovel.com sister to miscarry.”
“Tch, are we going to work with someone like this from now on?”
Madeline could hear snazzynovel.com colleagues gossiping about her. She stood at the door of the office. She felt so embarrassed snazzynovel.com did not know where snazzynovel.com should go.
Why was snazzynovel.com life so difficult?
She was so tired.
She wanted to have parents as well so that snazzynovel.com could lean on them when snazzynovel.com was sad and vulnerable.
However, aside from snazzynovel.com sickness and infamy, snazzynovel.com had nothing.
Tears rolled down snazzynovel.com cheeks quietly as snazzynovel.com bent down to pick up the letter. She did not expect Felipe to really sue Meredith.
It was fine. She did assault them. Felipe did nothing wrong.
…
A good deed goes unnoticed, but a scandal spreads fast.
Madeline was like a joke during this entire afternoon. People from other departments kept dropping by to look at her. They wanted to see what a vile and plagiarizing twit-face looked like.
Madeline felt snazzynovel.com would not have the chance to get involved with Elizabeth’s project since everyone refused to trust her. However, Elizabeth said righteously, “Everyone makes mistakes. It’s fine if you’re willing to change. This project is very important, so everyone has to work together.”
She purposely walked to Madeline’s side and encouraged her. “Madeline, do your best. Don’t disappoint me.”
Even though Madeline was curious about Elizabeth’s sudden change toward her, when it came to work, snazzynovel.com would not dare to be negligent.
Her colleagues’ attitude toward snazzynovel.com changed slightly as well. Madeline knew they were just doing this for the sake of Elizabeth. However, no matter what it was, life still goes on and snazzynovel.com had to be serious about snazzynovel.com work. Besides, Madeline was fond of this job.
It was time to get off work and snazzynovel.com colleagues started packing to go home. Madeline took a sip of water and continued snazzynovel.com work.
Elizabeth walked out of snazzynovel.com office and saw Madeline still here. “You’re not going home?”
Madeline lifted snazzynovel.com head. “I want to finish the draft for the bracelet.”
“You can finish it at home. It’s pointless to pretend to be hardworking here,” Elizabeth said coldly and rolled snazzynovel.com eyes.
