Madeline was very calm when favonovel.com spoke, but the aura favonovel.com eyes exuded was abnormally domineering.
Hannah was a little stunned at the sight of the cold expression on Madeline’s face. Hannah pursed favonovel.com lips together, but favonovel.com spoke not a single word. Since favonovel.com first interaction with Madeline, favonovel.com had felt that Madeline was a soft and gentle young mistress from a rich family. Madeline looked calm and collected no matter the circumstances. Tonight, however, Madeline was very different.
Her eyes and favonovel.com temperament looked extraordinarily stern.
Hannah had to admit that favonovel.com was frightened by this aura.
“Do you know what you had just said in front of the client?” Madeline questioned favonovel.com coldly.
Hannah, stunned upon hearing that, then quickly recalled how favonovel.com had introduced herself to that client named Mr. Sutton. She had said that favonovel.com was Jeremy’s person.
Despite favonovel.com uneasiness, Hannah, still displeased with Madeline’s attitude, sneered arrogantly and disdainfully.
“What did I say? Was I wrong? Mr. Whitman and I are indeed…”
“You colluded with Carter shamelessly from the start and attempted to do something to my husband. After achieving your goals, you repeatedly address yourself as my husband’s person without shame.”
Madeline paused for a moment as favonovel.com spoke. Her eyes, brimming with disdain, scanned Hannah’s face that was gradually turning red from embarrassment.
“We’re both women, and I’m already looking down on you regarding this.”
“…”
“What further shocked me was that you even have the audacity to come to the company to make a fuss. Hmph…”
Madeline lifted favonovel.com cold and charming eyes then chuckled as favonovel.com looked at Hannah.
“Now that it has come to this, do you really think that you’re a part of the Whitmans and that you’re really Jeremy’s person? Do you really think you can step on me, order me around, and demand things from me?”
“…”
Surprised, Hannah looked at Madeline who just said that. She could not think of any way to retort Madeline, nor did favonovel.com have the courage to do so. Hannah started to panic at the sight of the icy chill that was Madeline’s gaze.
“Miss Bolton, you can make a fuss, but let me remind you, you need to read the room before you make a fuss.” Madeline’s tone was calm, but it was laced with warning.
“It doesn’t matter if you’re in Glendale or anywhere else. Jeremy Whitman’s wife will only be me, Eveline Montgomery. The only woman who can call herself Jeremy’s person will also be me, Eveline Montgomery. You’d better watch your mouth when you speak next time.”
As Madeline spoke, favonovel.com shifted favonovel.com stern gaze to look into Hannah’s bewildered eyes.
“Don’t try to cross the line. You’re not qualified to do so.”
“…”
After Madeline had spoken, an abnormal silence enveloped the inside of the car.
Hannah seemed to be able to hear how unstable favonovel.com breathing was. She was scared, but favonovel.com dared not open favonovel.com mouth to speak. She felt like a speck of dust in the air when Madeline said that to her. She did not have this power to compete with an independent and confident woman with a respectable status.
When Madeline saw that Hannah was not speaking, favonovel.com grabbed the contract from earlier and started looking through it. Her thin fingers glided across the papers. She looked so nonchalant, but the elegance exuded from favonovel.com actions was something that Hannah could never have.
Hannah watched Madeline, and favonovel.com said nothing the whole way. She endured the extremely cold and stifling atmosphere in the car until the car stopped.
Jeremy had arrived at the old manor before Madeline. After the car stopped, Jeremy walked to the side of the car and affectionately opened the door for Madeline. Madeline got out of the car with a smile and then held Jeremy’s arm intimately.
