Chapter 74
Wooing My Ex-Wife
Chapter 74 You Will Really Harm Inez +25 Bonus âThereâs nothing to be jealous of.
Sheâs just a harmless person in a vegetative state,â Natasha mocked.
âIf you donât believe me, ask the person who took her away.
Inezâs death has nothing to do with me.
â Madelyn covered her ears and let out a piercing scream before running outside agitatedly.
Watching her leave, Natasha couldnât hold back any longer and burst into hearty laughter.
Initially, she had some doubts about what Eloise had said, but seeing Madelynâs reaction then, she was certain that something had indeed gone wrong with hez.
There would be no more competition for her in the journey to become the Mossey family heir.
She had finally overturned the situation! Now that Gwendolyn and Inez were both dead, there was no one left to compete with her for Maverickâs love, and no one to stand in her way of earning greater fame and status.
Natasha was in an exceptionally good mood.
She picked up a piece of salad with her fork and put it in her mouth, still unable to suppress the smile that tugged at the corners of her lips.
After taking just two bites, she placed the salad on the bedside table and swiftly lifted the blankets.
Upon seeing this, the housekeeper hurried over to help her.
âMs. Mossey, what are you trying to do?â the housekeeper asked in concern.
âGetting discharged.
â Natashaâs tone was determined as she sat down in the wheelchair with the help of the housekeeper and left the ward.
After leaving the hospital, Madelyn instructed the Mossey familyâs driver to go to Treytonâs villa at the fastest speed possible.
Deep into the night, a myriad of stars adorned the sky, adding a touch of romance to the tranquil darkness.
Madelyn stormed into the courtyard angrily, awakening the butler and a group of housekeepers who had already fallen asleep.
âItâs already very late into the night.
If you have any business, please come back tomorrow to see Mr. Harris,â the butler said groggily as he greeted her, trying his best to be polite, âI donât care! I must see my daughter today!â Madelynâs eyes were red as she fiercely pushed him away.
âTell me, where is my Inez?â âPlease calm down.
You might disturb others who are resting.
Please go back.
â Witnessing Madelynâs emotional outburst, the butler immediately stepped in with the housekeepers to stop her.
âWhat are you all doing? Hurry up and help me!â Madelyn turned around and shouted angrily at her bodyguards.
Taking advantage of the moment when the Mossey familyâs bodyguards were engaged in an altercation 1/7/4 Chapter 74 You Will Really Harm Inez +25 Bonus with the butler and housekeepers.
Madelyn slipped into the villa.
Glancing up at the illuminated third floor, she swiftly climbed the stairs.
Treyton, who was standing near the stairs, had just caught sight of Madelyn.
Before he could even utter a word, she grabbed his sleeve.
âWhere is my daughter? I want to see her right now! Treyton frowned before pulling his sleeve out of her grasp and straightening the cuff elegantly.
âCalm down,â he said.
âSheâs receiving treatment in a room on the third floor.
You can rest assured.
â âNo, I need to see her right now!â She simply couldnât be at case without seeing Inez alive with her own eyes.
Gwendolyn heard a commotion coming from outside.
As she stepped out of her room, she saw the scene unfolding before her and walked over.
âMrs. Mossey, when I took Ms. Inez away, I promised to ensure her safety, and you agreed to it at that time.
Now, however, you have come to the villa late at night, disturbing our peace.
What is the meaning of this?â Upon seeing her.
Madelyn immediately grabbed her and wouldnât let go.
âI donât care about all that! I want to stop collaborating with you! Let me see Inez right now! I want to take her away!â Gwendolyn frowned as she pushed the older womanâs hand away, displeased.
âI understand that youâre worried about your daughter, but please remember, Mrs. Mossey, that you represent the entire Mossey family.
Is this how the Massey family conducts business, by breaking its promises? I will not allow you to take her away.
â Madelyn was at a loss for words, unsure of how to refilte her.
In the end, she simply decided to throw at tantrum and made a scene, âEither way, if you donât let me see my daughter today, I wonât leave even if I die here!â Gwendolyn was about to signal someone to escort the guest out when the housekeeper who had been tending to Inez emerged from the room with an anxious expression.
âMs. Harris, bad news! Ms. Inez is in danger!â âWhat?â Madelyn clearly heard the housekeeperâs voice and pushed past Gwendolyn in a desperate rush to enter the room.
âWhatâs wrong with Inez? Let me in to see her immediately!â Gwendolyn quickly grabbed Madelyn, preventing her from barging into the operating room.
âIf you go in now and interrupt any ongoing treatment, youâll truly be harming her! Do you really want to lose your daughter forever?â Madelyn was intimidated by Gwendolynâs sharp tone and gaze.
2/4 Chapter 74 You Will Really Harm Inez +25 Bonus It took her several seconds before she finally came back to her senses.
She mustered the strength to struggle, attempting to break free from Gwendolynâs grip.
However, she was no match for Gwendolyn.
who had practiced jiu-jitsu before and was much stronger.
Frustrated, she could only snap angrily, âStop trying to scare me! You took my daughter away and wonât let me see her.
If anything happens to her, I wonât let you off the hook! I must see her today!â She tried her best to pry Gwendolynâs fingers loose but still couldnât break free.
âLet go of me! Let me in!â âFine, go ahead then! If you interrupt the surgery inside and anything happens to Inez, itâs all your faultâ Abruptly letting go of the hysterical woman, Gwendolyn crossed her arms and stared at her coldly.
Madelyn staggered before regaining her balance, staring at Gwendolyn in disbelief.
âHow could you perform surgery on Inez without my permission?â âThe doctor performing the surgery inside is Kieran.
He is a medical prodigy with a masterâs degree, is internationally acclaimed, and holds the top position in the surgical world.
Every surgery he has ever performed has been a success, and Iâm sure youâve heard of him.
If you rush in now and interrupt the surgery, you would be truly harming Inez.
â By then, Madelyn had already reached the door.
She hesitated for a moment with her hand on the doorknob.
Before this, she and Jerome had considered reaching out to Kieran to seek medical treatment for Inez, but he was too famous and his demeanor too cold.
Being merely a minor wealthy family in Fairlake, they simply couldnât afford someone of his stature.
Yet, Gwendolyn actually managed to persuade Kieran to come to Fairlake in person.
Should I really trust this woman? Madelyn stood right in front of the door, knowing that with just a gentle twist of the doorknob, she would be able to see her beloved daughter inside the room.
However, she struggled internally for a long time.
In the end⦠She eventually withdrew her hand.
âGwendolyn, Iâll trust you one more time, but let me make it clear if anything happens to Inez, I will not let you off the hook!â She unwillingly threw down these words before turning around to leave the villa.
Gwendolyn and Treyton exchanged glances, both visibly relieved, as they re-entered the operating room.
The horizon gradually brightened as morning arrived.
Madelyn settled into the car, closing her eyes wearily.
âMrs. Mossey, where should weâ¦?â the driver asked tentatively.
âReturn to the Mossey residence.
â She opened her eyes, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed across her face for an instant.
The black BMW slowly pulled into the villaâs garage.
Madelyn adjusted her facial expression before hurriedly making her way inside.
Jerome was sitting in the living room watching the morning news while Natasha sat nearby.
It was a harmonious scene of a father and daughterâs daily life.
âDarling!â As Madelyn burst through the door, her loud voice and sobbing shattered the harmony that had been present.
The two people sitting on the sofa turned around and saw Madelyn, whose face was filled with grief, lunging toward Jerome and crying out, âDarling! Our daughter is gone!â
