Abusive Wife Novel

Chapter 15 Social Circles Are Messy

Madeline pursed her lips. “I am Madeline Grant, didn’t you already have me investigated, Mr. Quincy? It’s just a pity that I’m not your ex-wife.”

There was a silent rage in his eyes. “You should count your lucky stars that you aren’t the real Madeline!”

“Why?”

“I won’t allow you to live a second longer if you were Madeline Grant!”

“It seems you have a deep resentment toward your ex-wife. Am I her substitute? You’re dumping all your frustrations on me? But hate is born out of love. Am I right to say that you loved her very much?”

“Hah, love? She doesn’t deserve it.”
