Chapter 264

Chapter 264:

Rowan and Sarai left. Bruno watched Madisyn for a moment before departing with his wife.

“Madisyn is not a simple woman,” Dora remarked.

Bruno nodded and replied, “Yes. Madisyn knew there weren’t any cameras at home, but she mentioned them deliberately. It was foolish of Courtney to fall for that so easily.”

At the time, he intended to hint to Courtney that there were no cameras, but he hadn’t anticipated that Andrew would play along with Madisyn and confirm the presence of surveillance in the manor. Their united front caught Courtney off guard, leading her to give up on her accusations.

Idiot!

“But such fools are easy to manipulate,” Dora said with a smile. “Now, we don’t even have to lift a finger to stop Madisyn from marrying Andrew.”

“Honey, we’re on the same page,” Bruno responded, embracing her with a smile. As long as Madisyn didn’t marry Andrew, the future leader of the Klein family might very well be their son. But if Madisyn and Andrew were to marry, Andrew would undoubtedly be the future leader.

In the living room, Damari expressed his sympathy, saying, “Madisyn, you’ve been wronged. I never imagined your cousin would stoop so low.”

“Mr. Klein, don’t worry about it,” Madisyn replied calmly, genuinely unfazed. Damari was impressed by her composure. As he held Madisyn’s hand, she suddenly felt his pulse under her fingertips. She looked at Damari, startled.

“Madisyn, what’s wrong?” Damari inquired.

Madisyn hesitated and then said, “Nothing. Mr. Klein, please take care of yourself.”

“Ha-ha, don’t worry. Since I’m not busy these days, I’m sleeping quite well,” Damari said with a smile. He was quite fond of Madisyn and invited her to stay for dinner before she left.

After dinner, Madisyn climbed into the car with her parents. Elaine immediately turned to Glenn and asked, “What do you think we should do now?” She looked intently at him.

Glenn felt a mix of helplessness and bitterness, but his expression remained stern and determined. “I need to have a serious discussion with Rowan.”

“We can’t just let this slide!” Elaine stated firmly.

Glenn nodded. He knew that both he and his wife had been incredibly patient with Rowan and his family, but that patience had its limits. He couldn’t believe Courtney had attempted to frame Madisyn. He was resolved not to let her get away with it. Observing her parents, Madisyn realized she was unexpectedly the one with the least worries at the moment. She didn’t have to do anything; her family was ready to defend her.

With a slight smile, she pulled out her phone and texted Andrew, asking, “Is your grandfather not feeling well?” Andrew immediately responded, “How did you know?”

Madisyn replied, “I can tell. Is it a heart problem?”

Andrew let out a sigh. “Wow, you can even spot that.” Madisyn explained, “I’ve picked up a few things about medicine.” She realized that Damari’s health issue must be complex. If not, with his resources, he certainly would have secured the best medical treatment available.

Madisyn got Damari’s medical records from Andrew. Checking his condition, Madisyn was lost in thought. It was not a fatal disease, but the specific medicine for this condition was very rare now. It seemed she needed to find a solution.

The silence of the night was shattered by loud crashes at Rowan’s residence. After arriving home, Courtney violently destroyed anything within reach. She had never felt such humiliation in her life.

Sarai, feeling pity for her daughter, tried to intervene, saying, “Courtney, please stop… That’s your father’s favorite vase!”

“Bang!”

The vase shattered. Courtney, overtaken by rage, continued to break everything in sight. Then, a sharp slap halted her. Stunned, Courtney fell to the floor, her frenzied expression freezing as she slowly looked up at Rowan. Rowan had slapped her!

Tears poured down Courtney’s cheeks.

Sarai was shocked. “Honey, what are you doing? Our daughter was the victim here!”

Rowan stared at his wife incredulously. “Are you serious? She was the victim? If she hadn’t tried to frame Madisyn, she wouldn’t have embarrassed herself. Don’t you see? Those who intend harm only end up harming themselves. Isn’t that obvious?”
