Chapter 343

Chapter 343:

Madisyn raised an eyebrow, knowing that Evie was lying but choosing not to expose her. Everyone had their secrets, and she respected that. A second later, Madisyn’s phone buzzed with a call from Susan. The moment she answered, she was met with an unusual burst of anger. “Madisyn! I’m fuming right now. Andrew—he is a jerk! I can’t believe I ever thought he was decent.” Susan’s voice trembled with frustration.

Madisyn’s heart skipped a beat. What happened?

Susan paused, clearly surprised. “You don’t know?”

Madisyn frowned, confusion settling in. “No, I don’t. What is it?”

Susan sighed, and then, to Madisyn’s surprise, she began to sob. “Courtney slept with Andrew, and now she’s pregnant with his child. I can’t believe Andrew is such a shameless man. Don’t worry, Madisyn; we’ll make sure he pays for this!”

Susan’s anger was palpable, driven by heartbreak for her friend. The thought of Madisyn suddenly discovering her boyfriend’s betrayal, and worse, that a child was on the way, was too much for her to bear.

But Madisyn remained calm, almost too calm. “Oh, so it’s about that.”

Susan’s voice spiked in disbelief. “It’s about that? Madisyn, Andrew has crossed the line! We can’t just let him get away with this!”

“Susan, it’s okay,” Madisyn replied, her tone steady. “I trust him.”

There was a stunned silence on the other end of the line. “What?” Susan finally managed to say. She had expected Madisyn to be outraged upon hearing the news. But instead, Madisyn’s unwavering trust in Andrew left her speechless. Could it be that even someone as sharp as Madisyn was blinded by love?

“Madisyn, you deserve better,” Susan insisted, her voice laced with concern. “Your brother and I can help you find someone who treats you right…”

Madisyn smiled gently, her tone unwavering. “Susan, I appreciate the concern, but I’m okay. Just trust me on this.”

Susan’s brow furrowed. She was torn between wanting to protect her friend and respecting her decision. After a moment, she sighed in resignation. “If that’s what you want, Madisyn…”

Next to her, Evie had overheard the exchange. “Madisyn, I can’t believe Andrew could do something like this—it’s unforgivable! I’m here for you. Let’s go shopping later to clear your head.”

But Madisyn’s serene expression didn’t waver. “Thank you, Evie, but I’m fine.”

Evie blinked, taken aback by Madisyn’s calm. How could she be so composed, so certain, when Andrew had a child with another woman?

While Evie was anxious, Madisyn pulled out her phone and opened a webpage. The screen lit up with Courtney’s public announcement, now circulating widely online.

Courtney, with her modest following, had made a post that read, “I have something to share. I’m pregnant—over a week now. I didn’t want to make this public, but I’m heartbroken because the father of my child refuses to acknowledge it. I’ve loved him for years and given him everything, but I never expected such betrayal. I’m devastated.”

Courtney didn’t reveal the identity of the father, but the internet was abuzz with speculation. Some dared to suggest Andrew, though most dismissed it as too far-fetched.

“Andrew is the future leader of the Klein family!” one comment read. “There’s no way he and Courtney could be together.”

“I agree,” another said. “It’s just impossible.”

But then, as if to shatter all doubts, Courtney liked the comment that said the child was likely Andrew’s, which sent shockwaves through the internet. Countless people asked Courtney if the child was really Andrew’s, and she responded in the comments section with a simple, yet explosive reply: “Yes, the child’s father is Andrew.” The internet erupted.

Within minutes, the news had gone viral, overshadowing even the scandal involving Tatiana. The buzz was deafening—Andrew, the man who had kept his image spotless for years, was now at the center of a massive controversy.

“Andrew’s child? How did Courtney manage that?”

“So, Courtney’s child will be Andrew’s firstborn—a child of status.”

“But didn’t Courtney say the father refused to acknowledge it? Even if it’s Andrew, he can’t just abandon his child, can he?”

“Andrew, you need to speak up; this is your child we’re talking about!”

“I never thought Andrew would turn out to be a scumbag.”

“We need to stand up for Courtney!”

“Courtney should not be mistreated!”

“Hold on, doesn’t Andrew have a girlfriend? Isn’t his girlfriend Madisyn?”

“Madisyn is Andrew’s girlfriend, but Courtney’s carrying Andrew’s child? This is beyond comprehension.”

“Men are jerks, and the rich ones are the worst.”

“Poor Courtney—she must have been deceived by Andrew.”

“Andrew, come forward and tell the truth!”
