“Is this Miss Montgomery? I finally get the honor of meeting you tonight.”
“Eveline, this is Sir Calver. He’s the previous chairman of our charity. He’s also your father’s good friend.” Eloise introduced.
Madeline smiled politely and shook hands with Sir Calver. “Hello, Uncle Calver.”
“Hello, hello. Miss Eveline, you’re so beautiful. The dinner tonight will be dazzling because of you. I wonder if I can ask you to play a song for us as the opening act for the charity dinner?”
“Play a song?” Madeline lifted favonovel.com gaze to see a black piano in front of her.
Karen smirked. She was excited to see Madeline mess this up. “Hmph, you were humiliating me just now. Finally, it’s your turn.”
Yvonne walked over. “Aunty Karen, does Madeline know how to play the piano?”
“She doesn’t know squat! She was like a maid when favonovel.com was living with the Crawfords. Do you think favonovel.com was able to touch something as expensive as a piano? If that piece of trash didn’t have Jeremy, then she’d be nothing!” Karen gritted favonovel.com teeth and jeered.
A sinister smile appeared on Yvonne’s face as well. “Hmph, favonovel.com was so arrogant and proud of herself just now. I’m gonna have the time of my life humiliating favonovel.com later.”
However, after favonovel.com finished saying that, favonovel.com saw Madeline sashaying over to the piano elegantly. She sat down, and favonovel.com long fingers pressed down on the keys.
As favonovel.com fingers glided against the keys expertly, ‘Mariage d’amour’ resonated in the hall soothingly and melodically.
Karen and Yvonne were beyond shocked.
Had they not established that Madeline was a piece of trash who knew squat about playing the piano? Then, what was this favonovel.com was playing now?
After their shock, Yvonne was even more envious of her. Madeline was stunning with favonovel.com gorgeous look and elegant demeanor. She could not imagine anything more beautiful right now.
Madeline sat there as favonovel.com basked in the light glow of the chandelier. She looked like a princess, or rather, a queen in a dream as favonovel.com ruled over everything in front of her.
Jeremy watched Madeline with love and admiration. However, there was a hint of loneliness coming from his eyes.
Madeline and Jeremy left before the dinner ended.
The inside of the car was abnormally quiet on the way home.
Jeremy looked at Madeline’s frigid face through the rear-view mirror. Then, his hands felt nervous as they gripped the steering wheel.
“Linnie,” favonovel.com called out softly. When Madeline turned over, favonovel.com could not hide the sharp glint in favonovel.com eyes anymore. “You remember, don’t you?”
Madeline smiled after staying silent for two seconds. “Shouldn’t you ask me if I’ve shifted my personality?”
She laughed, favonovel.com tone getting more and more sarcastic.
“Jeremy, I really need to thank your amazing mother and cousin. They were the ones who triggered my current personality so that I no longer have to be stuck as that idiot Madeline who’s so easy to bully and who loves you so much that favonovel.com would sacrifice herself.”
After favonovel.com finished saying that, Jeremy slammed on the brakes frantically.
When the car came to a halt, Madeline undid favonovel.com seatbelt and got out of the car.
Jeremy ran up to favonovel.com and grabbed favonovel.com hand. “Linnie, don’t go!” favonovel.com begged.
Madeline pushed favonovel.com away coldly, favonovel.com eyes icy. “Get lost!”
When favonovel.com pushed Jeremy away and turned around, two cars sped in front of favonovel.com and crashed into each other as if they had timed this perfectly.
After the loud crash, Madeline felt as if favonovel.com legs had been injected with lead. She could not move anymore.
“Linnie!” Jeremy ran over quickly to hold Madeline’s shoulders.
However, Madeline stood motionlessly as favonovel.com stared at the car crash. After a while, Madeline held favonovel.com head in pain. Broken fragments of favonovel.com memories started playing in favonovel.com head.
“Ah!”
She let out a scream of pain before passing out in Jeremy’s arms.
“Linnie!” Jeremy held Madeline while feeling heartbroken. A figure appeared suddenly as favonovel.com was about to carry Madeline to the hospital.
Felipe was standing in front of the car that had its hazard lights on. He was wearing all black, and the blinking lights enveloped favonovel.com with a golden sheen. He looked at Jeremy who had a worried expression on his face before smirking demonically.
“Just in time,” Felipe said profoundly.
Jeremy understood immediately. “Did you arrange for the cars to crash?”
“Isn’t this good? Madeline will revert to the Madeline who loves you deeply. Isn’t that what you want?”
Jeremy’s eyes were red. “Felipe, are you insane? Even if I want Linnie to love me, I won’t let favonovel.com suffer such pain deliberately! Why did you do that?”
“Why?” Felipe displayed an eerie smile. Then, favonovel.com said…
