Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 685

He felt as if he might lose consciousness.

He knew Courtney was jealous of Madisyn, but he never imagined she’d resort to murder.

Yet Courtney had increasingly seemed like a stranger to him.

Rowan sank to his knees before Glenn, tears streaming as he sobbed.

“Glenn, I’m so sorry.

It’s all my fault.

I failed to raise my daughter properly.

Courtney has been exceptionally gifted since childhood, which gave her a sense of superiority and made her believe she was the best.

She had never realized there are always others who excel more until she met Madisyn.

Her jealousy drove her to go too far with Madisyn!”

“Yes, Courtney has gone too far,” Glenn said.

Rowan burst into tears.

His hands trembled as he said, “Glenn, let me die.

I’m willing to trade my life to make things right between our families.

I’m so sorry.

As for Courtney… let her leave this city, go abroad, and never return.”

Despite all the pain Courtney had caused, Rowan couldn’t bear the thought of his daughter in prison.

It was a terrible place that would eventually kill her, he was sure of it.

Glenn remained silent, his eyes boring into Rowan, who could barely lift his head to meet his brother’s gaze.

Rowan’s tears flowed freely as he choked out, “I know you despise me, Glenn, but please, let your hatred be for me alone.

I’ll pay for my sins with my life if I have to.

Just spare my family.”

But Glenn’s silence only deepened Rowan’s desperation.

His heart pounded in his chest as he pleaded, “Glenn, please…”

Finally, Glenn spoke, his voice steady but heavy with sorrow.

“Rowan, as your older brother, I should have guided you better.

I won’t turn Courtney in-for now.

But if she crosses the line again, I won’t hesitate.

No words will save her from prison then.”

“Thank you so much, Glenn.” Rowan breathed a heavy sigh of relief, the weight of his fears lifting slightly.

He could only hope that Courtney would change her ways.

Meanwhile, Madisyn was visiting Jeffry, who was utterly shocked to see her.

With him in prison now, everyone else had turned their backs and she was the last person he expected.

“Are you here to revel in my misery?” Jeffry seemed eerily calm.

Madisyn’s Lips curled into a faint, almost cold smile.

“You’re right.

I came to see your misery.”

Jeffry’s face remained impassive, his voice a quiet murmur.

“Madisyn, no matter what has happened, we raised you.

Isn’t this a bit… cruel?”

“Did you forget that Jenna almost got me killed?” Madisyn retorted expressionlessly.

“You’re too exceptional, you know.

It’s only natural other people are jealous of you.”

“But not everyone would stoop so low as to murder others for their own selfish ambitions,” Madisyn countered.

Jeffry fell silent, a heavy weight settling in his chest.

The air between them grew thick with his unspoken despair.
