After he saw the door close, Carter took out his phone and started looking through the information he received. While looking at the contents on his screen, he curled the corners of his lips in interest.“Jeremy.”…Two days passed in a blink of an eye.Madeline had received a call from Carter last night, asking her to come to the manor earlier.In order to finish the task successfully, Madeline asked for leave. Luckily, Jeremy was on a business trip these two days, so it would be more convenient for her to go out.Madeline arrived at the manor according to the time they agreed upon. However, the manor was still quiet at this hour and there were no guests at all.On the other hand, the garden had been decorated beautifully for the engagement ceremony to take place.Madeline did not have the mood to admire it, so she walked straight to the house. However, after she got into the door, she heard Ada grumbling furiously.“Carty is insane! Insane, I tell you! He’s seriously going t

Madeline saw a lot of guests arriving one after another from the front door as she sat by the window.Everyone who arrived was wearing expensive clothes and had luxury jewelry adorned on them.Carter’s friends were wealthy and respectable people, indeed.She noticed it was almost time for the party, so Madeline planned to tidy herself up before going out. However, at this moment, the door of the dressing room opened.Madeline thought Carter was here to get her, but she saw Ada smirking coldly at her arrogantly and disdainfully while strutting over to her.She looked at what Madeline was wearing and scoffed.“Hmph, Eveline, don’t be so delusional and expect to have a Cinderella story happening to you. Even if you’re engaged to Carty, it doesn’t mean you’ll marry him.”Madeline did not want to waste time bickering with Ada. As such, she smiled calmly and asked, “Who are you to think that I need a Cinderella story?”“Tsk.” Ada rolled her eyes. “Are you telling me that you’re born

“Bride! You’re a bride?” The little boy looked at Madeline and doubted.Madeline nodded and smiled. “Hello, buddy.”However, after Madeline greeted him, the little boy showed a look of contempt. “The bride’s voice is so unpleasant!”When the guests around him heard this, their faces changed. However, they did feel that Madeline’s voice sounded hoarse.However, Ada’s heart was thrilled, and she did not notice the changes in Carter’s expression. Then, she pushed the little boy’s hand again.The little boy received Ada’s message and lifted his face to look at Madeline.“I want to see the bride,” the little boy requested with a pout. “They say the bride is very beautiful, so I want to see the beautiful bride. I want to see!”Carter smiled superficially. “If you want to see a bride so badly, you can go look at them in bridal shops. There are a lot of them over there.”After he said that, he grabbed Madeline’s hand and displayed a rare but gentle smile. “I’ll go back to the room with

How could she have recovered to this state in just one month?Plus, Eveline’s appearance was so delicate and beautiful!She did not want to admit it, but she did think that Madeline’s beauty was able to defeat hers.No voices were mocking and ridiculing Madeline for being ugly anymore. Now, there were only compliments.Since the start of the party, Camille’s face had been dark. However, things were obviously different now.Madeline did not care how people viewed her. Now, she was only worried about how to muddle through this.She did not say anything, but she felt Carter’s complicated gaze on her.Carter looked at Madeline’s face that was as beautiful as a painting, and his eyes darkened.Suddenly, he grabbed Madeline’s hand. “Let’s go back to our room.”There was nothing wrong with his tone, but Madeline could feel his grip tightening on her hand.Madeline could not escape from Carter’s grip now, so she could only follow him back to the house.Ada watched as Carter left whi

“What’s wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?”“Aunty Cammy, look at this. Look at this!” Ada handed her phone over and pointed to the people on the screen.Camille lowered her head to look. On the screen, she saw the wedding pictures Madeline initially took with Jeremy. Plus, there were also some photos of them attending parties together.“It seems that Eveline was married to the number one young master in Glendale, Jeremy Whitman!” Ada was almost roaring when she said that. Her voice was so loud that even Madeline and Carter could hear her in the study.“What? Jeremy Whitman?” When Camille heard this, she stared at the pictures on the screen with her eyes so wide her eye sockets were about to crack.“Eveline is someone with a family! This is way over the line!”Camille turned back and barged into the study.“Eveline, you…”“I know everything about Eveline. I don’t care who she was with before. I don’t care if she’s married or if she has children. She’s my fiancée now.”Carter
