Chapter 813
When Nicole left the detention center, she was wholly muddled and stood at the entrance with a weary expression
on her face, appearing a little worn. She remained frozen at the door for a few minutes before she recollected
herself and slowly ambled to her car.
She closed her eyes when she slumped into the leather back as her mind was a complete mess.
Her guess was right on the money. When Madeline was pregnant, William wasn't paying any attention to her at all.
Even when she was giving birth at the hospital, he didn't show up and the only one by Madeline's side at that time
was Betty.
Earlier in prison, the things she dug out from William after some grilling was—back then, when her mother,
Madeline, was about to give birth, Lydia was also pregnant at the same time. Of course, his sole attention was on
Lydia, so he barely bothered about Madeline.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Madeline was pregnant and discovered that he had another lover, she was infuriated. Alas, not only did he
not repent, he turned worse and even laid his hands on her.
Nicole fluttered her eyes shut and recalled that time when Siobhan told her that she was born on the same day as
Evelyn.
Suddenly, an absurd thought popped up in her mind, but it flashed through her mind very quickly and disappeared
like the wind.
Her hands slowly tightened into fists on her sides, but she couldn't believe that Madeline would be such a person!
She lightly banged her head on the steering wheel in front of her in resignation and exhaustion. Frankly, she could
feel herself being crushed by the overwhelming pressure.
Eventually, she laid back in the seat and sighed.
This matter was exposed in the hospital, and the Wrenns would react. They definitely knew something, and since
they weren't planning to say anything… She didn't see any need to put herself forward like a pathetic puppy.
With this thought in mind, she smiled helplessly. Her fair hands gripped the steering wheel so tightly that her
knuckles turned white. Her chest gradually started to tighten unwittingly, radiating with pain.
After she sat in the car in silence, mulling over things, she finally stepped on the gas pedal and left.
…
In the end, Douglas realized that he was a soft-hearted fool. He hated Whitney; the moment she destroyed his
family and career, he knew he despised her.
But when the time came for him to send her to jail with his own hands, he just couldn't bring himself to do it despite
the concrete evidence presented before him.
His secretary entered with a stack of documents and left them on the corner of his desk. As she regarded her
superior, who had been in an unpredictable mood for the past few days, she couldn't help but remark, "Boss,
you've been working for the past few days, and these documents are not urgent. Would you like to go home and
catch some rest?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Douglas heard her, he slightly raised his head and stared at her. His dark eyes flashed with too many
complicated emotions that she couldn't catch. Eventually, he looked down, thinking for a few seconds before
asking, "How's the situation with the Campbell Family?"
Since she was his secretary, it was only natural that she knew Douglas was always keeping a close eye on the
situation of the Campbell Family. So, his secretary hurriedly answered once prompted, "The Campbell Family is
bankrupt and couldn't come up with any money. In addition, Miss Campbell has cashed out the shares. She would
have to serve time if they can't fill the gap."
A knot appeared between his brows. He didn't accept Whitney's money; as long as she poured in the same amount
that she gave him into Campbell Cooperation, she wouldn't have to end up in jail.
"What's the matter?"
When his secretary observed how concerned he was, she hastily reported, "Miss Campbell changed the legal
representative of Campbell Cooperation to herself, and she didn't return the money she cashed out. As a result, the
shareholders are starting to stir up trouble, preparing evidence to start a legal case. If they succeed, Miss Campbell
will face at least ten years of jail time."
This was the information she managed to learn this month, and that was about it.
