Chapter 860

“Mr. Whitman, if you don’t agree to this arrangement, then I’m afraid this fine piece of artwork won’t be able to walk out of this door. Isn’t that right, sweetie?”

Madeline did not want to help either one of them after she looked at the man’s arrogant expression and Felipe’s dark face.

The only person she wanted to help right now was herself and Jeremy.

While Felipe was hesitating, Madeline stood up with a radiant smile. “Who says I’m walking out of this door?”

When Madeline said that, Felipe and Fabian were stunned.

The two men looked at her smiling face, their eyes filled with suspicion and surprise.

“Eveline, what are you talking about? Do you want to stay here?” Felipe was in disbelief.

Madeline peered at Felipe coldly before she shifted her beautiful eyes to Fabian’s face. “He’s treating me so well here that I don’t want to leave.”

Fabian’s eyes lit up as he smirked. “Are you for real?”

“Of course.” Madeline looked arrogantly at Felipe. His face was getting darker and darker. “I don’t want to stay with this man anymore. If you have the ability and skills, then win me over.”

Fabian looked at Madeline with interest. At the same time, he looked like he was suspecting something.

Madeline said, “Why? Are you scared? Are you scared of him?”

“Heh. Why would I be scared of him?” Fabian scoffed. Indeed, this indirect and psychological method worked best for a young and vigorous man like him.

“Felipe, did you hear that? Your woman doesn’t want to go with you. However, I’ll keep my promise.

You’ll get South America while I’ll take the black market.”

Felipe ignored him and stared straight at Madeline. “Eveline, are you not coming with me?”

Madeline said sarcastically, “I’m always being watched like a prisoner no matter where I go anyway. If that’s the case, why don’t I change to a newer and better prison?”

Felipe was fuming. He clenched his fists and did not say anything before leaving with his men.

Fabian was thrilled. He opened a bottle of his best wine and poured a glass for Madeline. “Darling, you’re something else. Tell me, why don’t you want to leave with him?”

He was so straightforward and did not look like those brainless thugs out there.

Madeline smiled softly. “I want to have a trade with you.”

“A trade?” Fabian looked at Madeline in interest. He then lowered his voice and asked, “What trade is that?”

“Before this, answer me. Were you the one who disfigured Cathy?”

“My brother was the one who did it. It was already too late when I found out,” Fabian answered magnanimously, “Why? Is she your friend?”

“Yeah, she’s my friend.” Madeline looked into those sly eyes calmly. Then, she told him her plans.

As Fabian listened to her, the smirk on his face started spreading wider and wider…

Felipe left the bar with rage burning inside his chest.

He had already said that he would do everything according to her wishes and tolerate her. Plus, he even rushed over to save her the moment he knew she was kidnapped.

However, she did not appreciate his kindness at all.

The car arrived at the manor and he got out of the car angrily. The moment he walked into the house, someone told him, “Mr. Whitman, a woman named Yvette is waiting for you in the living room.”

Felipe walked into the living room and walked past Cathy. Then, he said to her coldly, “Follow me.”

Cathy could feel the anger oozing off Felipe. She hesitated for a few seconds before following him.

Study.

Felipe was facing the french window. The bright sunlight could not get rid of the storm and coldness coming from his body.

When he heard Cathy’s footsteps, he said sarcastically. “Are you here for Jeremy?”

Cathy said coldly, “Tell your men to go away. Don’t stand outside the door like watchdogs.”

“Are you feeling sorry for him?” Felipe turned around and walked in front of Cathy. His dark aura enveloped her as he caressed her cheek with his fingers. Then, his eyes sharpened. “I think I need to help you remember some things.”

“What are you trying to do?”
