Chapter 1642
"Where's Eveline? Did you get her husband Jeremy?"
Carter nodded with an indifferent expression.
"They are in the police station now. Jeremy might be fine, but Eveline..."
He paused, looking at an expectant Ada.
Indeed, she was waiting for something bad to happen to Madeline.
"What about Eveline? Will she be convicted of bigamy?" Camille enquired. She was quite fond of Madeline, actually. Moreover, before the wedding, she had already known about the real situation. She did not want to proceed with the wedding, but there was no way for her to stop Carter.
Even though this might embarrass Carter, she still hoped, from the bottom of her heart, that Madeline would not get into trouble for bigamy.
"How did the police come just in time?" Camille asked in confusion.
Deep down, Ada wanted to take the credit for her achievement. At least she had helped Carter restore some of his reputation.
As she was considering whether to tell them, she heard Carter asking her, "You're the one who called the police, right?"
Ada could not wait to be praised and gain a favorable impression from Camille. When she heard this, she nodded repeatedly, but still pretended to be endearing. She frowned, with a concerned look on her face, and said, "This woman committed bigamy. I can't stand by and watch her fool Carty like this. She reaped what she had sown and deserved to be punished!"
"I see, so it was you who called the police." Camille peered at Ada who was waiting to be praised. "How can you act on your own? Don't you know that this will harm Eveline?"
"..." Ada thought Camille would commend her. Hearing Camille blaming her at this moment confused her. "Aunty Cammy, did you forget? Eveline has a husband. How can Carty get married to a woman like this? She committed bigamy, so she only has herself to blame."
"Even if she did commit bigamy, that's our business, Ada. Don't interfere with the Gray family's matters any further. Also, I'm going to make this explicitly clear to you. You'll never end up with Carter. You no longer need to plot, and you don't need to ingratiate yourself with me. I can't stand the sight of scums who scheme behind people's back!"
Ada's face flushed red in embarrassment. She had not seen this coming.
Camille had mercilessly condemned her in front of many others.
She had thought that, with Madeline in trouble, she had a chance to replace her. How did her plan backfire so quickly in the end?
She was aware that she had completely infuriated Camille.
However, she had not expected Camille to have such a good impression of Madeline. Otherwise, how would she side with Madeline at this moment?
Ada reluctantly endured the gaze of those witnessing this scene unfold. She could only walk away resentfully.
This was the first time Camille was this angry. She waited until her friends and family had left, then she sternly criticized Carter.
"Carter, why did you harm Eveline with such means? She's a pretty good woman. I can understand if you're using her to drive away Ada, but how could you make her bear the crime of bigamy? You know that the St. Piaf marriage laws on bigamy could ruin her entire life!"
Camille's words were serious, and she meant business.
However, Carter leisurely took off his suit jacket and said irreverently, "It's because she is a good woman, I want to marry her, but now..."
He paused. Then, he added insipidly, "This path is of her choosing. Regardless of the consequences, she'll have to bear it herself."
Carter headed upstairs when he finished speaking.
After hearing this, Camille felt that something was not quite right. She thought it over and immediately made a call. After the call, she went to her room for a change of clothes, and then asked the driver to fetch her somewhere.
