Chapter 169

She immediately brought Rose and Jon to the little villa they stayed in nowadays which was given to them as thanks for raising Meredith.

Rose cursed and swore as she recounted the events in great details to Meredith.

After understanding the matter, Meredith was deeply suspicious, but Jon shook his head.

“That’s definitely not Madeline. Madeline was never that bold!”

Rose was originally certain as well, but she was wavering since stepping out of the station. “Meredith, I think that woman just looks like her. She definitely isn’t Madeline. She’s been dead for three years and even her corpse would have rotted by now. Jeremy personally brought back her ashes, so how could she return to life?!”

Even if that was the case, Meredith was still full of doubt. “Could there really be two people who look so much alike on earth?”

“Maybe she somehow saw a picture of that woman and felt that she looked good, so she did plastic surgery to look like Madeline. No matter what, that Vera woman is definitely not Madeline! Your dad is right. How could that idiot ever be this imposing?! It’s impossible! That piece of trash was never able to fight us!”

Listening to Rose and Jon, Meredith’s doubts slowly disappeared. A smile returned to her face.

“That’s true. Madeline was just a useless idiot, so how could she be so imposing? Furthermore, she could never have gotten enough money to buy that shop on First Crystal Street. She even got the trending brand, Miss L.ady, into the shop.”

Rose could not help but complain. “What kind of rotten brand is that? Just a stinky breast pin cost me 300,000, and a diamond even fell off it!”

Meredith proudly showed off her bracelet and ring. “That’s not a rotten brand. It’s the most popular jewelry brand among women in these two years. The designs are impeccable and highly sought after.

Mom, I’ll give this to you. That Patton woman insisted on giving it to me some time ago, and it’s worth 100,000!” she said that as she passed the bracelet to Rose.

Rose’s eyes lit up as she hurriedly received it. “What a filial daughter I have. Anyway, what’s going on with Jeremy? I feel like he’s been neglecting you recently. Your fake birthday is almost here, so why don’t you get Jeremy to propose to you on that day? There’ll be a lot of people there. If we pressure him together, he won’t have a good reason to refuse!”

Hearing that, Meredith smiled happily as a sinister glint flashed through her eyes.

“Jeremy is mine. It doesn’t matter if it’s Madeline or Vera. I’ll kill anyone who tries to steal my man!”

Meredith said as a plan began to hatch in her mind.

This time, she would succeed!

After the two incidents in the morning, Madeline felt quite refreshed.

Remembering the shocked and frantic looks on Meredith and that couple’s faces, her determination to get her revenge strengthened.

She looked at the time and was about to leave when Jeremy’s car stopped in front of her shop.

Jeremy stepped down, his tall body a picture of elegance.

“Miss Vera, would you like to have lunch?” he said warmly as he walked toward her.

Madeline smiled coldly. “I don’t think so. Your precious fiancée might run over and accuse me of seducing you.”

As she said that, she turned around to leave.

Jeremy frowned as he quickly understood what Madeline meant.

He immediately chased after Madeline and saw her accidentally stepping on a rock. She was falling right in front of his eyes.

Jeremy did not know what came over him as his heart stopped. He immediately rushed over as he grabbed onto her tightly. “Maddie.”
