Abusive Wife

Chapter 15 Social Circles Are Messy

The more she acted out, the more displeased he seemed. His towering figure loomed over her. “Let me ask you one more time. Who are you? Think before you answer!”

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.”

Noah was quick to retort as if he had heard a joke.

She knew the answer deep down, but Madeline was still hurt to hear it five years later.

That’s right. I don’t deserve it.

She obviously didn’t care anymore, but why was she still trying? Why did she still feel hurt?

No, she wasn’t going to allow the person who killed her grandfather to go free!

The only reason she returned to Imperia was for her child, to avenge her grandfather, and to clear her name!

It had nothing to do with the man before her!

A man like him wasn’t worth her affection!

What’s more, Colton Quincy was here. She couldn’t let him find out about the child!

The glint in Madeline’s eyes darkened with every thought.

She immediately tried to send him away!
