The moment Winston came back, he called Madeline over. This elicited Karen and Yvonne’s curiosity.However, Yvonne felt that this was a great chance to steal the drafts!Using this opportunity, Yvonne snapped a picture of the draft with her phone.When Karen saw this, she walked over curiously. “Yvonne, what are you doing?”Yvonne’s brain worked fast after she was caught taking a picture of the draft. “Aunty Karen, I thought of a way to make Madeline never be able to lift her head up high again! She’ll stop being arrogant soon enough!”“Oh?” Karen’s eyes lit up. “What is it?”Yvonne smirked evilly and got close to Karen’s ear before mumbling something inaudibly.After Karen heard that, the same malicious smirk appeared on her face as well.After Madeline was called to one side by Winston, he called her to surrender before she could ask what was going on.“Surrender?” Madeline asked. Then, she smiled calmly. “You’re convinced that I’m the one who poisoned Grandpa just from the

Yvonne started screaming. Soon, she alerted everyone in the house.However, Madeline was surprised by the word Yvonne had yelled out just now.Abuse?Karen and Winston arrived at the scene shortly after.When they saw the bruises and wounds on the old master’s arm, their eyes widened.“W-What happened?” Winston questioned. Then, he rushed forward to inspect the old master’s condition.Karen walked over with worry on her face as well. When she got over, she pushed Madeline away. “Oh, Old Master, what happened to you? Did you fall from the bed?”“Aunty Karen, they don’t look like they’re from a fall. It’s obvious that someone is deliberately abusing Grandpa!” Yvonne purposely fanned the flames to Madeline. “Madeline, you’re the one who’s been taking care of Grandpa after he got here. Were the wounds on Grandpa…’“Watch your mouth.” Jeremy’s cold voice came from outside the room.Yvonne quivered reflexively. She lifted her head timidly and saw Jeremy’s cold side profile. She did

Yvonne was basking in schadenfreude as she waited for the police to take Madeline away. However, she did not expect Jeremy to come back just in time.As she was worried that her plan would be foiled if they were to delay this, Yvonne could not help herself and said, “Jeremy, you’re back just in time. Madeline abused Grandpa yet again! Look! He has so many new wounds on his arm!”“I called the cops. This woman is too evil. She has to be punished by law!” Winston’s face was green from anger. There were even flames of rage in his eyes.Karen pretended to moan in devastation. “Madeline, everything is in the past, so why are you still so determined to take your revenge on us? Meredith was the one who harmed and falsely accused you. What did that have to do with us Whitmans? You’ve already caused Jeremy to lose everything. Are you going to stop only when the old master is dead?”She forced a tear from her eye as she put on a heartbroken and angry expression.“The old master is so pitifu

After Jeremy heard what she said, a layer of frost appeared in his eyes. “We have concrete proof and yet you’re still saying that Linnie framed you?”Yvonne trembled. She did not dare to look into Jeremy’s eyes. “I-I didn’t. I’ve been treating the old master like he’s my grandpa this whole time. How would I…”Winston was livid. He slammed his hand down on the table loudly. “I didn’t expect it to be you!”“No, it’s not me. I didn’t! Uncle Winston, you have to believe me—”“The truth is right in front of our eyes and you’re still lying to us!” Winston was outraged, and his face was turning from red to green.After Karen got over her shock, she felt nervous.Before she could get roped into this, she decided to gain the initiative by striking first. Hence, she slapped Yvonne heavily across the face.“Yvonne, you’re such a disappointment! You’ve ruined the reputation of the Yalemans! I’m so mad!”Karen pretended to feel resentful toward Yvonne for failing to meet her expectations. T

After she heard that, Madeline gripped the handle of her cup dispiritedly.Looking at the liquid in the cup, she could not help but recall Jeremy’s gentle gaze when he looked at her the other day.Judging from his eyes, Madeline did not think he was pretending.For some reason, her heart started to beat faster.“Vera, what are you thinking about?”“Nothing.” Madeline came back to her senses and took a sip of her tea. “I can’t remember what happened in the middle. However, Jeremy did hurt me back then. He allowed his mistress and his family to humiliate and insult me. I know all about that. I’ll definitely seek revenge for this.”When she said this, there was a flash of resentment in Madeline’s eyes.Felipe looked at Madeline’s expression silently, curling his lips into a smirk.“Vera, just do what you need to do. I’ll support and wait for you.”“Thank you, Felipe. I know you’re the one who saved me when I was about to die.”Felipe was surprised. He had never told her this aft
