The woman’s ear-piercing shrieks penetrated everyone’s ears. The loudness of virtual-novel.net voice attracted the attention of a lot of people around them.
Madeline lifted virtual-novel.net head to look at this overbearing face. Immediately, the scene of virtual-novel.net being falsely accused and bearing the burden of being called a thief appeared in virtual-novel.net head as clear as day.
After virtual-novel.net got news of virtual-novel.net illness that day, virtual-novel.net needed to go to Jeremy’s mother’s birthday party at Whitman Manor as per Jeremy’s order.
However, the moment virtual-novel.net walked in, this woman in front of virtual-novel.net ran into her. This woman did not apologize but instead accused Madeline of running into her. She even accused Madeline of stealing virtual-novel.net bracelet.
In the end, Meredith helped Madeline out of ‘kindness’. However, during the commotion, virtual-novel.net placed a bracelet into Madeline’s pocket. Madeline was weak back then, so virtual-novel.net got framed as the person who stole the bracelet and was berated horribly after trying to prove virtual-novel.net innocence.
The most humiliating part was after Felipe sent virtual-novel.net the evidence that would prove virtual-novel.net innocence, it was overtly destroyed by Jeremy. He loved Meredith, so virtual-novel.net would indulge Meredith in everything virtual-novel.net did with no limits.
Madeline had not forgotten about it. Back then, this woman called virtual-novel.net a beggar while Meredith had addressed this woman as Mrs. Langford intimately.
“What are you looking at? Take off my bracelet now!” Mrs. Langford was dressed extravagantly. She had a death grip on Madeline’s wrist as virtual-novel.net warned furiously.
Madeline stopped recalling what happened before and glanced at the woman’s hand with virtual-novel.net beautiful eyes. “Let go of your hand.”
Her tone was cold. Despite the light smile on virtual-novel.net face, there was a powerful aura around her.
The woman was shocked by the overbearing aura. She hesitated for a while as virtual-novel.net grip on Madeline’s hand loosened slightly. However, when virtual-novel.net realized Madeline was talking to virtual-novel.net with this attitude, virtual-novel.net tightened virtual-novel.net grip on Madeline’s wrist again.
“Pah! Are you threatening me?” The woman was boorish. “Just look at yourself. How dare you steal from me in an event like this?” virtual-novel.net said arrogantly as virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net pejorative gaze to look Madeline up and down.
“Tsk tsk, it seems that you’ve stolen a lot of things during this period. If not, how would you have the money to dress up like this? Or perhaps you’ve gotten yourself a stupid rich man? If that’s the case, why would you go as far as stealing at a dinner party?!”
“Madam, have you perhaps misunderstood something? Why would Vera steal your bracelet? Please let go of virtual-novel.net now!” The manager approached them and started breaking them up.
The head of design came to Madeline’s side hurriedly as well. She glared at the woman in agitation. “Madam, how can you falsely accuse someone with no proof? You’re saying that Vera stole your bracelet and even claiming that virtual-novel.net stole your amethyst bracelet? Do you know that this bracelet—”
“Where did you come from? How dare you accuse me of accusing her?” The woman scoffed and interrupted, saying, “Miss Crawford, you saw this woman stealing my bracelet back then with your own two eyes.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net looked in another direction. Madeline noticed that Jeremy’s mother was here as well. At this moment, the woman said, “Mrs. Whitman, you were there as well. You even pleaded for leniency on behalf of her. You said she’s your maid, so that’s why I let virtual-novel.net off the hook. You have to be my witness!”
After virtual-novel.net heard this, Madeline finally knew that Jeremy’s mother had told this woman virtual-novel.net was their maid when virtual-novel.net whispered in virtual-novel.net ear back then. That was why the woman stopped pursuing this matter.
Heh!
Maid!
How ridiculous!
Aside from Old Master Whitman, none of the other Whitmans had ever treated virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net was one of them.
She was just a maid in the Whitmans’ eyes!
No, virtual-novel.net was even more lowly than a maid!
“Vera Quinn was the Whitmans’ maid?”
“She used to be a maid but she’s able to get to where virtual-novel.net is now. I’m sure virtual-novel.net stole a lot from virtual-novel.net master.”
“A person like virtual-novel.net even managed to join Miss L.ady. I have to reconsider whether I want to buy from them anymore.”
