Abusive Wife

Chapter 151

Madeline seemed indifferent to seeing Suzette.

“It really is you, Madeline! You’re back! I missed you!” Suzette could no longer leave with Madeline already at the door, so she gave Elise a hard look, and then approached her daughter and played the part of a worried mother.

She wanted to hug Madeline, but the latter dodged her advances.

“Oh, where have you been all these years? I was so worried about you. I’m relieved to see you’re safe and sound.”

Suzette had pounced on air and had somewhat embarrassed herself and struggled to shift the attention away from her.

She, however, didn’t give up on grabbing Madeline’s hand. This time, Madeline

had no time to dodge when Elise spoke

“What? What did you say? You’re saying Madeline is your daughter? Aren’t you Mrs. Lowe? Madeline is a Grant. Did you remarry? Huh, I didn’t hear anything about that…” She cut in with a timely interruption.

The look on Suzette’s face turned positively dark.

“Excuse me, I’ve been telling you that you’ve got the wrong person. I’m Madeline’s mother. It’s Mrs. Grant. Not Mrs. Lowe. Please get your story straight!” She tried to cover it up with her stature as a noblewoman.

“That’s impossible. I have the surveillance footage from the store on my phone. Let me look it up!”

“What are you trying to do here, Miss?” Elise’s reluctance to let the matter slide made Suzette come forward to threaten her in a low whisper.

“What’s wrong? Does Mrs. Lowe want to shut me up?” The girl didn’t waver and whispered back.

It looked like the two were whispering to one another.

Madeline could tell what Elise was up to with a single glance and said nothing.

“Name your price,” Suzette said through gritted teeth.
