Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 40 The Counterfeit +25 Bonus At eight in the evening, the guests had all arrived at the Mossey residence.

Other than the Mossey family’s relatives, those who came were all people from the upper-class society.

Madelyn was quietly standing beside Jerome, smiling and greeting the guests every once in a while.

However, she was not at all happy.

Her daughter was still in a coma, but Jerome was already trying to bring his illegitimate daughter into the family and even forced her to take Natasha as her own daughter.

She was livid.

Yet, she knew that the only way to prevent the Mossey family from going to ruins was to listen to Jerome, for they did not have a son, and her only daughter was currently unconscious.

Therefore, no matter how averse she was to the situation, she had to pretend as though she adored.

Natasha.

“Look! It’s Ms. Natasha!” someone cried out, and everyone in the hall instantly turned to look at the second floor, where the spotlight was aimed at Natasha had delicate makeup and an elegant smile on her face.

Her haute couture dress only made her look even more poised.

Every step she took as she came down the stairs was filled with grace.

Mossey, you’re blessed.

Even your younger daughter is wonderful.

Moreover, her fiancé is Wright Construction Group’s CEO.

How jealous you make others!” Another rich woman quickly chimed in to curry favor with Madelyn.

“That’s right.

Mr. Wright’s young, handsome, and capable.

They’re truly a match made in heaven.

You’re so lucky, Mrs.

Mossey!” “No, no, of course not.
