“Grandma...” Madelyn blushed deeply.

Seeing her flushed and adorable face, Agnes grew even more fond of her. She nodded, “Okay, okay. | won't say
anything else. | won't.”
Only then did the blush fade away from Madelyn’s cheeks.
At that moment, Marsha, standing at the side, let out a cold, mocking laugh. “Madelyn, | heard you caused quite
a scene at the banquet earlier.”
Madelyn paused, casting a puzzled look at Marsha.
Marsha scoffed coldly. “Don’t think that by putting on this face, I'll pretend to know nothing. Madelyn, I'm not
purposely picking on you, but you've really crossed the line! How could you have no sense of shat all?”
By the end of her speech, her tone was downright accusatory.
Madelyn looked utterly bewildered.
“What on earth happened?”
Agnes and Steven were both confused.
“Marsha, as an elder, you shouldn't lose your temper with the younger ones so easily. Whatever happened, just
explain it calmly,” advised Agnes solemnly.
Marsha took a deep breath, her expression serious as she looked at Agnes. “Mom, stop defending Madelyn. If
you knew what she’s done, you'd be just as angry.”
Madelyn was utterly bewildered. What did | do?
“What on earth happened?” Agnes was also quite curious.
Marsha had been suppressing her fury for a while now. At this moment, she simply let it all out and scolded
Madelyn, “Madelyn, you've been engaged to Sebastian for a long time. I'm not asking you to be a dutiful wife
and good mother, but I'm begging you to at least uphold sdecency! How could you run off for another man
during such an important banquet?”
“What?”

Madelyn tensed up.
It must have been Beatrice, that blabbermouth, spouting nonsense again. D*mn it....
“Mom, there's been a misunderstanding, | didn’t do this,” Madelyn immediately clarified.
Marsha coldly snorted. “I don’t care whether you realize this or not, but from now on, | hope you remember your
place. You're the daughter-in-law of the Lockhart family. Your actions don’t only reflect on you. They reflect on
the entire Lockhart family as well. | hope you won't do anything to tarnish your own reputation.

What she detested most was her daughter-in-law’s lack of restraint. Madelyn was always out gallivanting. living
a life of frivolity and inconsistency.
Sebastian was so exceptional. Countless women yearned to be with him, but they never had the opportunity
In the end, he ended up falling for a woman like Madelyn.
Every tMarsha thought about this, she felt a knot of discontent in her heart.
“Mom, don’t worry. | understand. At that moment, Madelyn suddenly said with an obedient look on her
face.
Everyone was looking at her, seemingly taken by surprise.
“Since I've married into the Lockhart family, | am committed to being Sebastian's wife for the rest of my life.
From now on, | won't entertain any thoughts about other men, let alone act in a way that’s unethical. Please,
believe me.”
After she finished speaking, Madelyn gave everyone a slight nod.
For a moment, everyone was somewhat taken aback.
After all, it was well known that Madelyn had a rebellious and willful character. She always acted high and
mighty. Yet, she was apologizing to them now.
She even spoke so sincerely.
Marsha was genuinely taken aback. Since Madelyn had already apologized, it wasn't right to keep pressing
her.
In the end, she reluctantly gave up. “Fine, as long as you understand. We'll go back to our rooms first.”
After she finished speaking, Marsha left with Nigel.
Shortly after, Agnes and Steven went up as well.
In the large living room, only two people remained, their eyes locked on each other.
Sebastian looked at Madelyn, recalling the words she had just spoken. His heart skipped a beat.
Her honesty just now was so compelling that it was hard not to believe her.
However, recalling the past, Sebastian couldn't help but harbor doubts.
Can she really change so drastically in such a short span of time? Previously, she couldn't standat all. She
wished that we'd never cross paths again. But now, she’s saying she wanted to devote herself to being my wife.
She has truly ged
Janessa returned to the Sherritt residence in a foul mood, all the while thinking about how the evening had been
nothing short of a disaster.
That despicable woman, Madelyn, didn’t follow my plan! All the preparations | made were in vain. Leven ended
up falling into the water. Yet, that despicable woman remained unscathed.

After entering the house, Janessa swiftly kicked off her slippers, ready to head upstairs and wash away the day's
bad luck with a good, long bath.
Suddenly, a voice laced with sarcasmi called out, “Oh, the disgrace has finally decided to show
up, huh?

The voice cfrom Scarlet, who was seated on a luxurious leather couch, gliligently attending to her skincare
routine. Rupert was seated right beside her.
“Dad, Mom,” said Janessa, her voice filled with reluctance.
Scarlet didn’t even bother to respond. She just scoffed and sarcastically said, “I heard you made quite a
spectacle of yourself at the Lockhart family’s birthday banquet today. Instead of walking on the path, you
somehow managed to fall into the water. Did you think you were a mermaid?”
Upon hearing those words, Janessa clenched her fists tightly, wishing she could immediately shut Scarlet up!
“Il... I didn’t mean to.” She had no choice but to relent.
After all, she was just the mistress’ daughter, living under someone else’s roof. She had no choice but to keep
her head down when she spoke.
“Can’t you be more careful?” At that moment, Rupert suddenly sprang up and shouted angrily, “I warned you
before you left. It's a very important event, so you must be cautious and careful! What did you end up doing?”
“Dad, I... | didn’t do it on purpose. I'm sorry,” Janessa hastily apologized.
Rupert was upset in the heat of the moment. Now, taking a deep breath, he said, “Forget it. What's done is done,
there's no use in dwelling on it. But remember, you better be careful not to provoke those you shouldn't in
important settings like that! We were fortunate today that the Lockhart family was lenient with us. Otherwise,
who knows how much trouble we could have been in.”
“Yes, | understand. I'll definitely remember this in the future.” Janessa obediently nodded, taking the lesson to
heart.
Then, she returned to her room.
As soon as she returned to the room, her true nature was instantly revealed. A fierce and twisted expression
appeared on her face. She grabbed whatever she could find on the desk and furiously threw it against the wall.
She was filled with intense hatred.
At home, she detested the fact that she was merely an illegitimate daughter and that Scarlet could always. lord
over her. She resented her father’s indifference towards her!
de, she despised Madelyn for being able to live with Sebastian, and for being treated as a cherishe gem by her
family.
Life is so unfair to me! Why is this happening?
