Madeline stood up and reached out to Hannah.“Get up.”After hearing Madeline's urging, Hannah lifted her head and she dazedly stared at Madeline's palm outstretched in front of her.How could this be?Was this not her hallucination?“Even if we can’t be friends, we don’t have to be enemies, right?”Madeline asked with a generous smile, and her palm moved closer to Hannah.Hannah felt more ashamed in her heart when she saw Madeline’s warm smile.“I’m sorry.”Finally, those two words came out of Hannah's mouth.She did not have the slightest perfunctory or hypocrisy. This apology was entirely sincere.Madeline curled her lips into a smile. “I accept your apology.”As she said that, she shook her hand lightly.Hannah instantly understood Madeline's meaning, and she finally reached out her hand to gently hold Madeline's hand.At that moment, she felt her palm turning warm in the cold winter wind.This warm touch slowly reached all the way to her heart.“Thank you, Eveline.

“Mrs. Whitman, help me!”The person asked Madeline for help. She looked terrified and panicked, and she also looked battered and exhausted.“What happened? I thought you had returned to St. Piaf. Why are you still in Glendale?” Madeline asked patiently.When Hannah was about to answer, there was a sound of overlapping footsteps outside the parking lot, accompanied by the voices of several women talking.“I saw her running in here just now.”“Let's go in and take a look!”“I’ll teach her a painful lesson later!”“Mrs. Whitman, help me!” Hannah quickly asked for help again.Madeline glanced at the source of the sound and then unlocked the car.“Get in the car first.”“Thank you!” Hannah thanked and hurriedly got into the passenger seat.After that, Madeline got into the car and stepped on the accelerator.As she turned the steering wheel, she caught a glimpse of a few young and fashionable girls walking quickly into the parking lot.Hannah, who was sitting in the passenger s

Madeline saw that Jeremy still had doubts about Hannah, so that was why he asked her out here to speak to her alone.Sure enough, as soon as they arrived at the next office, Jeremy urged Madeline solemnly.“Linnie, I still find it a bit weird, so you better not get too close to her. In a while, I’ll call Ken to arrange the flight and send her back to St. Piaf.”Madeline nodded silently. “I also think that sending her back is the best arrangement. Even if her friends were boycotting her, I don't think her parents would leave her to fend for herself.”“We don’t need to worry about whether her parents would care for her or not. Linnie, she first came to the company to make trouble. She slandered your reputation and innocence, so she should bear the consequences now that the situation has escalated to this level after the clarification.”“Yeah, Jeremy, you’re right,” Madeline agreed. She then smiled in relief and took Jeremy's hand. “Then, I’ll do this according to your wish, honey.”

Seeing this, Madeline quickly squatted. “Hannah, Hannah.”She called out twice but Hannah did not respond.“Jeremy, she seems to have passed out.”Jeremy's deep gaze stayed on Hannah's face for two seconds. Then, he reached out and helped Madeline up.“I'll call for an ambulance now, Linnie. Don't touch her.”“What’s going on? Who is this? Why is she unconscious?” Karen held her little grandson and walked up suspiciously.Hannah looked very battered right now, so Karen did not recognize that this was the woman who had made a fuss in Whitman Corporation’s lobby before this. When she saw that Hannah was on the ground, she summoned the servants out of sympathy.“It's not appropriate to lie on the ground in this cold weather. Help her up first and let her lie down for a while on the sofa.”The servants understood what Karen was asking them to do and worked together to lift Hannah.“Who were those people? Were they just a bunch of hooligans?” Karen asked.Madeline shook her head.

After Jeremy finished saying that, he walked straight to the toilet.Madeline was curious too. Even she thought that Hannah’s mood had changed too suddenly.However, her expressions looked so genuine earlier.Since she was worried something bad might happen, Madeline walked over hurriedly.Jeremy walked to the door of the toilet and was about to open the door. However, he could not turn the knob. Obviously, Hannah had locked the door from inside.If that was the case, they could not go in even with a key.Jeremy did not have much patience dealing with women other than Madeline.He directly ordered in a cold voice, “Open the door.”Jeremy’s tone was extremely cold. He was also not discussing with Hannah; he was ordering her.However, Hannah did not respond to him.Jeremy raised his hand to knock on the door hard. “Open the door. If you don’t want to cause a commotion, open the door right now.”Jeremy ordered again. Then, a small voice came from inside.A few seconds later, M
