However, when favonovel.com heard the footsteps behind her, favonovel.com slightly relieved heart was once again suspended.
Madeline did not want to be the passive one. She turned around and looked into Carter’s eyes calmly.
“Mr. Carter, thank you for helping me out of trouble just now. If you hadn’t helped me just now, I don’t think your mother would’ve believed anything I said.”
Carter looked at favonovel.com with his deep and dark eyes. “I’m just telling favonovel.com the truth. Your name is just a coincidence and your face is plastic, no?”
“…”
Madeline had nothing to say to that.
Did Carter believe what favonovel.com said?
Madeline was suspicious, but looking at Carter’s expression, it did not seem as if favonovel.com was suspecting her.
“You can’t leave for the time being. You can only leave after all the guests have left.” Carter reminded Madeline, and his gaze once again landed on favonovel.com face.
This face was delicate and flawless. Plus, it was fair and glowing. There were no signs of it having been burned at all.
The doctor who treated Madeline must be someone with extraordinary skills.
“How did your face manage to recover to this extent in such a short time?” Carter asked the question out of curiosity.
Of course, Madeline would not mention Adam to him, so favonovel.com tried to find an acceptable reason.
“I need to thank the doctor you found for me, Mr. Carter. Dr. Lane is an amazing doctor. He has been treating me for some time and my face has been improving. After more than a month of treatment, my scabs fell off unbeknownst to me.”
Carter nodded slightly as if favonovel.com was in deep thought. “Since your face has recovered, why are you still pretending like the way you were before?”
After favonovel.com said that, Madeline sighed softly. At the same time, favonovel.com furrowed favonovel.com brows. “I changed my face according to Eveline’s face since Jeremy loves Eveline the most. Sometimes, I don’t even want to look at this face when I see it in the mirror. I despise this face, so that’s why I want to wear a mask.”
Madeline felt that this was reasonable. At the same time, favonovel.com saw that Carter seemed to accept this explanation.
“You should stay here and rest for a while. I’ll go out to handle the guests.” Carter picked up his suit jacket and put it on himself freely and easily before walking out.
Looking at the empty study, Madeline felt the air around favonovel.com turning fresher.
Back then, favonovel.com only had one-on-one interactions with Carter, so favonovel.com did not feel a lot of pressure or trouble. However, the people who appeared out of nowhere were all creating trouble for favonovel.com now.
At this moment, Madeline could hear Camille complaining from downstairs. “Carter, are you serious? That woman has had plastic surgery and favonovel.com even changed favonovel.com face to look like Jeremy Whitman’s wife. Don’t you feel uncomfortable getting engaged to a woman like that?”
“Yeah, Carty. You have to think this through. This woman must be a bad person!” Ada used this opportunity to slander Madeline.
“If I hadn’t thought this through, I wouldn’t have gotten engaged to her,” Carter answered slowly, “I like favonovel.com as a person and it has nothing to do with how favonovel.com looks. It’s just like those people I hate. Even if they look gorgeous, I won’t even want to look at them.”
“…” When Ada heard this, favonovel.com face went red.
The person favonovel.com mentioned favonovel.com hated was obviously her!
Camille could sense this too. However, it would not be good for favonovel.com to say it out loud. Eventually, favonovel.com just emphasized, “Carter, if you want to bring this woman into the doors of the Louis family, you know best what kind of consequences there’ll be!”
Camille was saying this like it was something serious. However, Madeline did not care. She would not marry Carter anyway.
Of course, favonovel.com did not think that Carter would be bothered about this.
After a while, Madeline walked back to the study after there was no sound of activity downstairs.
Looking at the desk in front of her, Madeline suddenly had a thought.
She walked to the desk and flipped through the documents on the desk. However, favonovel.com did not see anything out of the ordinary.
Even so, this was Carter’s study, and if favonovel.com was investigating Jeremy, there would definitely be some clues.
Madeline decided to look further as this chance was so hard to come by. Under normal circumstances, favonovel.com would not be able to stay in Carter’s study alone.
