Chapter 39

"Alright," Bailey agreed. "Naomi, let's just move on from this. Don't confront Madelyn."

"Fine, I'll follow your lead."

Despite Naomi's agreement, she sped off the moment she parted ways with Bailey and headed straight to

Madelyn's place.

If she let this slide, Madelyn would target Balley again, and Estelle would probably escalate the bullying.

Naomi wasn't one to back down easily.

'Ms. Goodwin, Ms. Sabella isn't home. Please come back another day," the maid said.

"Ms. Goodwin, please leave!"

Despite the maid's efforts to stop her, Naomi entered the living room of Madelyn's house.

"Ms. Goodwin..."

Before the maid could finish speaking, Naomi cast a cold gaze at her and demanded, "Get Madelyn out

here now!"

Just then, Madelyn walked down from the second floor in casual wear. She questioned indifferently," Naomi, what's all the fuss this late at night? Is this the upbringing of the Goodwin family?"

Without a word, Naomi picked up an antique vase from a nearby cabinet and hurled it toward Madelyn She asked coldly. "Did you go after Bailey this afternoon?"

The vase hit the wall and shattered into pieces. Madelyn jumped in shock and then brushed off the glass shards from her clothes.

"Naomi, have you lost your mind? Don't you realize where you are?" she yelled.

As Madelyn cleaned her clothes, her finger was scratched by the glass shards. She exploded in anger and shouted, "So what if I confronted her this afternoon? I hit Bailey, not you, Naomi."

Hearing Madelyn's admission to hitting Bailey, Naomi snorted. She took a few steps closer to Madelyn and grabbed her by the neck. "Say it again."

Madelyn's face turned red instantly. She stammered, "I did hit her. But what can you do to me? If you

don't let go of me now and dare to cause trouble in my place, I'll make sure that Bailey pays a heavier price next time."

She was right. Hurting Bailey would affect Naomi more. Madelyn's actions today were undoubtedly aimed

at Naomi.

Infuriated by Madelyn's arrogance, Naomi tightened her grip on Madelyn's neck. In a swift motion, she pulled Madelyn's hair and dragged her down the stairs. Madelyn's retaliation was relentless. Staggering, Madelyn tried to claw at Naomi's face as she yelled, "

Chapter 39

You wretch! How dare you hit me in my own house? I'll take you on!"

Before Madelyn could reach her, Naomi raised her leg and kicked Madelyn hard in the abdomen. Madelyn winced in pain, stumbled, and then fell to the floor. Madelyn was undoubtedly no match for Naomi.

Holding her stomach in pain with tears streaming down her face, Madelyn threatened, "Naomi, remember what you've done today. I'll kill Bailey!"

As her threatening words fell, Naomi responded with another two swift kicks to her stomach.

In short, whatever harm Madelyn intended for Bailey, Naomi returned in kind. The only regret was that Naomi wasn't wearing high heels today. The mid- heels she was wearing weren't enough to cause severe harm to Madelyn.

Naomi then crouched down in front of Madelyn and grabbed her hair before asking, "Estelle and Pauline conspired with you, didn't they?"

Madelyn sobbed as she responded, "It's none of your concern. Let me tell you..."

Before she could finish her sentence, a slap landed across her face. 'Are you still being defiant?"

The slap from Naomi left Madelyn's face swollen and bleeding at the corners of her mouth.

In a one-on-one fight, Madelyn was on the losing end when facing Naomi.
