Chapter 1635

After Madeline said this, Carter showed a never-before-seen look of surprise in his eyes.

He had thought it was the best threat to use on her because she was previously in prison where she suffered inhumane treatment and suffering, so she was deeply traumatized. It was impossible that she would still want to go back to such a place.

However, he never expected that Madeline would say that she was guilty of bigamy so confidently and magnanimously.

Although, he had been the one who designed this crime for her.

Ada, who was among the crowd, was also stunned when she saw this scene.

After being stuck in a daze, she quietly turned around and sneaked to the side.

Ada’s mother saw this and followed behind her.

When she was about to ask Ada what she wanted to do, she saw her daughter taking out her phone and quickly dialing a number.

“Hello, is this the police station? I want to make a report. There’s a woman here who committed bigamy.”

After reporting to the police, a happy grin appeared on Ada’s face.

When she turned her head, she saw her mother looking at her with a smile. Ada touched her chest in fright. “Why are you standing here without making a noise? You scared me.”

Ada’s mother gave her a thumbs up with admiration. “Honey, you’re truly quick on your feet. It seems that Eveline will go to jail soon and you’ll have another chance to nab the position of viscountess!”

Ada spread her hands, unconvinced. “I should’ve thought of this long ago. Although it is a bit late, Eveline did commit bigamy. It’ll be difficult for her to leave the prison in St. Piaf within a year or two.”

“One or two years is enough for you to win the position of viscountess!” Gradually, a greedy light was revealed in the eyes of Ada’s mother. “Ada, this time, we have to do this steadily. You have to please and flatter Camille. As long as you can handle her, you’ll be half-seated on the throne of the viscountess.”

Ada raised her eyes that were covered with delicate eye makeup and smiled triumphantly. “This time, I’ll definitely win!”

Back at the wedding.

After Madeline pleaded guilty to bigamy, the scene fell into chaos for a while.

The faces of the elders in the Gray family had fallen, and they called a stop to the wedding.

“Carter, you can’t marry this woman!”

“You’re so ridiculous! You’re married and you have a husband, yet you dare to provoke Carter?!”

“Do you know who Carter is? How dare you commit bigamy in St. Piaf?! St. Piaf’s marriage law will teach you a lesson!”

When Madeline was faced with these verbal abuses and warnings, she remained magnanimous. She did not flinch even when she met Carter’s increasingly cold gaze.

“Carter, I dare to commit bigamy, so why don’t you dare to admit that you deliberately set up a trap to frame me for bigamy?”

“…” For the first time ever, Carter felt that he seemed to be restrained by a woman.

So far, he had not met a woman who dared to challenge him like this.

However, Madeline, who was standing in front of him right now, dared to.

After Madeline said this, everyone around her was shocked again.

“What? Did she say that Carter framed her?”

“Would Carter actually do such a thing?”

“This woman is lying!” Ada pushed the crowd aside. “Don’t believe what this woman says! The elders present should know what kind of person Carty is better than me! This woman is the one who’s slandering Carty!”

With a righteous and just appearance, Ada strode up to Madeline.

“Eveline, why is your heart so dark? Carty saved your life when you almost died during that accident at sea so that you can get your life back, but you’re biting the hand that feeds you!

“You fancy Carty’s status as a viscount, so you deliberately appeared weak and fragile in front of Carty.

You used the most despicable means to confuse Carty. Carty is too naive, so that’s why he was successfully fooled by you and believes everything you say. However, unexpectedly, you’re already married and have three children! Eveline, you’re so contemptible!”

Ada firmly vilified Madeline and defended Carter. She wanted to take this opportunity to win Carter over because she was undoubtedly helping Carter by doing this now.

However, just when Ada was feeling pleased that she could finally ridicule Madeline in public, an alluring and icy deep voice sounded from the crowd.

“It’s you who’s the contemptible rat who inverts right and wrong.”

“…” The smug smile on Ada’s face suddenly froze.
