Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 96

Just as he left, Mina returned.

Madisyn looked up, asking, “Did you notify everyone already?”

Mina paused, taking in Madisyn’s youthful appearance and refined beauty.

It was the first time she really noticed her, and a flicker of irritation crossed her mind.

Was this young woman, looking so delicate and beautiful, attempting to give her orders?

In Mina’s experience, attractive young women in the corporate world were often relegated to the sidelines or seen merely as ornamental.

She momentarily wondered if Madisyn was just another pretty face attached to a powerful man, perhaps acting as Dane’s secretary or assistant.

“Yes,” Mina responded, masking her thoughts.

“So where is Mr.

Johns?”

“He stepped out to take a call.

If there’s anything you need to discuss, you can tell me,” Madisyn responded with assurance, holding Mina’s gaze steadily.

“Excuse me?”

Mina’s disbelief was palpable, as she chuckled incredulously.

“And, who exactly might you be?”

Madisyn’s brows furrowed in confusion and slight irritation.

“Is there a problem?”

Seeing Madisyn’s expression, Mina mused, “Let me guess, you’re one of Mr.

Johns’s suitors looking to climb the ladder.

Am I right?”

Madisyn was momentarily lost for words.

“I’d suggest you not waste your time,” Mina continued dismissively, her voice cold.

“Mr.

Johns cares for nothing but his work.

”

Madisyn was stunned by the audacious assumptions swirling around her.

Choosing to ignore such baseless speculations, she turned her attention back to the documents in front of her.

However, Mina was not done.

She marched over, her movements sharp and aggressive, and yanked the documents from Madisyn’s hands.

“These are confidential company documents.

What the hell are you doing?”

Madisyn’s patience waned, anger sparking in her eyes as she firmly stated, “Give them back.

”

“I won’t.

What will you do, huh? Think you’re Mr.

Johns’s girlfriend?”

Mina’s voice dripped with scorn.

“Everyone knows Mr.

Johns isn’t seeing anyone.

You’re just a girl trying to latch onto him.

What gives you the right to order me around?”

Mina’s sneer was a clear display of disdain.

Her jealousy was hardly concealed; Dane had long been the focus of her desires, making her particularly hostile towards any woman she saw as competition.

Just as Madisyn was about to correct Mina’s misconceptions about her relationship with Dane and possibly explain her legitimate involvement in the business, Dane walked back into the office.

“What’s going on here?” Dane demanded, his tone sharp as his eyes moved from Madisyn’s restrained anger to Mina’s barely concealed hostility.
