Edward already knew the kind of person Maddison was. He knew he had made a mistake in being with her.
Unfortunately, his ego mattered more than his integrity, and he refused to admit his mistake. Instead, he kept
telling himself-and everyone else that she was different from the person she had already revealed herself to be.
But now, Maddison no longer wanted to pretend. She had unmasked herself, and in doing so, she had stripped

| couldn’t help but sneer. “Too bad you can’t even get your hands on something so mundane!”
Her eyes
r eyes narrowed, and she glared at me. “What's the basis for your arrogance, Taylor? All you've ever noticed is
first!”
| frowned. “Excuse me? This is the dumbest thing I've heard all week! Have the cancer cells eaten away at your

Cameron stomped her foot. “Watch your mouth, Taylor, or ‘Il rip it right off your face!”
| scowled at her. “Sure. Go ahead. Beatup, and I'll send you back to jail.”
