“You know what? Cancel the plan. You should go and calm your little princess,” | said, jumping to my feet.
Unfortunately, Maddison had no intention of lettinggo
“Where the hell do you think you're going, Taylor Jones?! How dare you run away after being caught with my
husband!” she shrieked, causing the entire hall to jolt in surprise.
People began looking around in confusion.
| waved at Maddison from a distance, smiling provocatively “Oooh, can you even reach me, though?”
“You bitch!” she screamed, her voice rising as though she were ready to lunge.
Edward hurriedly stepped in, pulling Maddie into a tight hug before she completely lost control.
“Stop it, Maddie! We're here to transfer ownership of the villa. You wantto sever all ties with her, right? Well,
we still need to divide the properties in the divorce!”
| snickered to myself. Just a few moments ago, he'd been the sweetest guy on the planet, sipping his hot
chocolate, and now he couldn't wait to cut ties with me?
| had no idea he was such a pretender.

“Then why the hell did you lie about being at work? Why do you always tellyou're busy when | want you to
spend twith me?
“If I hadn’t shown up here, you'd still be lying to me, wouldn't you? And you even bought her a drink! You care so
much about her, and now you're telling| overreacted?!” she growled.
Maddie was smarter than Edward thought. She must have picked up on his regret for choosing her and his
growing excuses to see me.
The hall quickly filled with people. By that point, though, | was already outside.
| glanced back, and through the glass doors, | saw Maddie hurling the hot chocolate cup at Edward, screaming
uncontrollably.
The crowd around him scattered quickly, but Edward was drenched, covered in the sticky mess.
I was stunned and shuddered.
Jean was right-Maddie really was too much. No man could possibly stand her.
“You sure are the architect of your own punishment, Edward. Ha!” | muttered.
The villa’s ownership transfer stalled, but | still moved out that afternoon.
After witnessing Maddie's outburst, | was convinced | needed to stay as far away from Edward and L family as
possible for my safety.
| moved out without telling Edward. Instead, | contacted the property manager.
Later that night, as | unpacked in a room I rented, Edward called. | let it ring
He then texted me.

Edward: [Sorry about Maddie. She's been undergoing sintense treatment, and it’s affecting her emotions. |
explained everything to her, and she apologized.]
| was stunned. Jean was right! A scheming bitch played a man like a fiddle. She humiliated him in public, and yet
he was fine with it so easily?
| laughed. Edward was a bit of a masochist, after all.
Edward: [You'll need an allowance now that you're renting ‘Ill send you the money first. We can do the paperwork
sother time.]
