Chapter 1 You’ll Regret This Someday

“Madeline Grant, you’re a murderer! Why are you still alive? You should have died instead!”

Noah Quincy angrily shoved her away from him. His expression was as somber and desolate as thefunereal black suit he was wearing.

Taken by surprise, Madeline lost her balance and fell, landing on her heavily-pregnant belly. The painwas so intense that spasms shook her entire body, and she cried out in agony.

Blood began slowly trickling onto the ground.

Nonetheless, she forced herself to ignore the pain and looked up with swollen, red-rimmed eyes. Witha bleak, mirthless expression, she pleaded, “Noah, how many times do I need to say this before you’llbelieve me? I wasn’t the one who betrayed your family or the Quinton Corporation, and I certainly didn’tcause your grandfather’s death.”

“You have the nerve to say that in front of me?! Have we mistreated you in any way?! Wasn’t it enoughfor you to marry into our family and be an adored daughter-in-law? Instead, you turned around and soldconfidential information about the family business, plunging it into dire straits! When Grandpa found outyour little secret, you ruthlessly disposed of him!”

Madeline shook her head vigorously. “I told you, it wasn’t me! It was Angie!”

Noah was furious. Glaring down at her with contempt, he snapped, “How dare you involve your sister inthis mess! Haven’t you done enough harm to her already? What more do you want?!”

Time and time again, this woman schemed and plotted without remorse, but like a fool, he alwaysrelented and forgave her in the end!

Steely determination and anger flared up in Noah’s eyes, and he flung a divorce settlement agreementright in Madeline’s face. “You’ll sign this right now! From today on, I’m going to make you pay athousand times over for everything you’ve done!”

The sight of the document was like a dagger to Madeline’s heart. Her entire body felt as if it had beenturned to ice on the spot as if she had been consigned to the freezing wastelands of Hell itself.

She shook her head furiously. “No…I won’t sign the divorce papers. Our child hasn’t been born yet…”

She could not get divorced, not right now. She did not want her child to be stigmatized and suffer as aresult of what had happened.

Noah pushed her aside. “I warn you, don’t you dare use that child to threaten me! If it weren’t becauseof your pregnancy, do you think I’d even let you live?”

Above all else, he hated being intimidated. This woman, however, had done it to him time and timeagain!

“Call the police!”

Noah turned on his heel and stalked out of the house, seething with rage. He did not so much as spareMadeline a backward glance.

Madeline refused to give up hope. She did not believe he could treat her so cruelly and tried to run afterhim.

However, she saw that he had already gotten into his car. Not only that, her sister, Angie, was in thepassenger seat beside him, looking pleased as punch and acting just like the mistress of the Quincyhousehold!

Her twin sister, Angie, was the instigator of this entire affair!

Madeline wanted nothing more than to drag her perfidious sibling out of the car and throttle her todeath!

However, right at that moment, she heard a police siren blaring, and a police car stopped in front of thehouse.

“Ms. Grant, Mr. Quincy has lodged a report against you, saying you deliberately committed murder andsold corporate secrets. We have conclusive evidence now; we’re putting you under arrest!”

The constables seized her arms and dragged her toward the police car. She staggered and fell to theground again. Her hatred consumed her; she could only lie there, staring with venomous eyes as Noahand Angie drove away.

As the police pulled her to her feet, Madeline struggled furiously. Glaring at the departing car carryingNoah and her twin sister, she shrieked, “Noah Quincy, you only ever believe whatever that bitch says,never me! You’ll regret this someday! If you’ve caused my unborn child to come to any harm, I’ll neverforgive you, ever!”

Rain began to fall, mingling with the bloody trail on the ground where the police had dragged her to thecar. Her desolate cries carried through the storm like a banshee wailing.

As he drove off, Noah could still catch a glimpse of Madeline’s humiliated, desperate figure in thedistance.

Her sobs echoed in his ears, and her accusations seemed to sear themselves into his heart.

Madeline was clearly the culprit, so why did he suddenly feel his resolve weakening?

…

Five years had passed.

A cold, bitter wind gusted over the cold, desolate landscape of the North Hill Cemetery in Imperia.

Madeline stood in front of the Quincy family’s cemetery plot. She was clad entirely in black and washolding a small bouquet of lilies. Stooping down, she lightly placed the flowers on Gordon Quincy’sgrave. “I’m sorry I took so long to visit you, Gordon,” she murmured.

She took off her sunglasses, revealing a face devoid of makeup. Her features were good; her nose wasexquisitely straight, and her lips were rosy even without lipstick. Her long tresses had been gatheredsimply over one shoulder. Although she was in a cemetery and dressed in such austere garb, herelegance, and cool, aloof beauty were still eye-catching.

She had finally fulfilled her promise and returned after so long.

She was sure that Gordon had been her guardian angel all this while, allowing her to encounter thatmysterious Good Samaritan five years ago.

Back then, when Madeline had been framed for selling confidential information about the QuintonCorporation and causing Gordon’s death, her reputation had been utterly destroyed. She had becomea notorious criminal, despised by everyone in Imperia.

The night of her arrest, she had bled heavily and given premature birth to triplets. Her firstborn son hadbeen taken away on Noah’s orders; fortunately, she had encountered a mysterious individual who hadhelped her conceal the existence of her other two sons. This individual had also helped her fake herown death, which was why she had been able to hide herself away and survive until now.

She stared at Gordon’s weathered photograph printed on his headstone. Even in the picture, hisexpression was kindly and compassionate, just as it had been when he was still alive. For a moment, itseemed as if he had smiled at her.

“I’ve heard they’re going to get married soon!”

Madeline’s gaze abruptly turned as cold as a steel blade!

“Don’t worry, Gordon. As long as I’m still alive, I’ll make sure that murdering bitch Angie won’t ever bepart of the Quincy family, not after she betrayed you!”
