The bodyguards responded, “Okay, Mrs. Jardin.”
In the master bedroom, Madelyn sat holding Dalton. Margaret walked back and forth anxiously, “Oh mygosh, I was scared to death.”
Madelyn asked, “What happened to you? Who did you see? Why are you so frightened?”
Margaret explained, “Ms. Jent, you have no idea! I followed your instruction to hide in Mr. Jent’s studyas soon as something went wrong. I did that when it blacked out. Just now, I heard footsteps goingdownstairs. I thought it might be you, so I walked out of the study. When I approached and patted thatperson’s shoulder, she turned around. My goodness, her face was simply unbearable to look at; allburned, features twisted. She looked like a monster!
“She was even holding a knife. If it weren’t for the power to come back so quickly, she might’veattacked us.”
Madelyn thought, ‘It turns out that someone really wanted to kill me! I’ve always felt that someone waswatching me closely from behind recently. So, it wasn’t an illusion.
‘Who could that person be?!’
In the dark, someone had a camera capable of monitoring activities from a distance without beingeasily noticed. At the six-star hotel, Cecilia was holding a glass of red wine and sitting on the sofa withher legs crossed as she watched the surveillance footage on the television. She was wearing only abathrobe.
She said, “Yvonne is so useless. That was such a good opportunity, yet she still couldn’t get rid ofMadelyn!”
At the same time, a man’s voice came from the television, “Ms. Samford, she had already entered thecar and left. Should we follow her?”novelbin
Cecilia elegantly sipped her red wine, ” It’s fine. You should leave too. He’s about to come back. If youdon’t leave now, you won’t be able to leave later.”
“Got it.” Then, the television screen went black.
Cecilia’s mood was quite good. She was great at letting others do the dirty work to achieve her goals.In the past, Madelyn was not her match. Now, Yvonne was merely a pawn to Cecilia, a person shecould easily manipulate at her will.
Cecilia looked at the phone on the tea table, which lit up. She opened the message that containedthree words: [ The deal failed.]
Cecilia said, “It’s fine! Zach, we have plenty of time ahead. I believe you’ll join us soon. Then, I’ll havesome leverage over you.”
Even though she understood Zach very well, she was also well aware that he still held considerableinfluence and connections in the underworld. He did not leave any evidence of his past deeds; Ceciliacould not trace what Zach did.
She believed that she could only have some leverage over Zach if he started doing something illegalagain. Only then could she manipulate him at will.
Zach returned home quickly. He tightly frowned when he saw the smoky flower room. He got out of thecar and walked swiftly into the villa.
He went upstairs and found that Madelyn was safe. He then hugged her and Dalton tightly. Madelyn feltuncomfortable. She looked up and said, “Zach, I can hardly breathe.”
After she told him about the whole incident, he still refused to tell her who that person was.
Madelyn furiously grabbed his pillow and threw it out the door, “You’ll sleep in the guest room tonight. Idon’t want to see you at all.”
Zach walked out, picked up the pillow from the ground, and patted it, ” Madelyn… There won’t be anext time.”
Madelyn slammed the door shut, “Get lost!”
Zach took the pillow and went to the adjacent study. His gentle gaze turned cold instantly. He stood infront of the floor-to-ceiling window and stared at the pitch-dark night as he dialed a number on hisphone, “Find Yvonne and bring her to me.”
“Yes, Mr. Jardin.”
He then put his phone back in his pocket, ‘Is this what you want? I’d like to see how many tricks youstill have left.’
