"You know everything I do is for the sake of your son. How can you speak to me that way?â
Madeline's composure shattered, her outburst so sudden and fierce that even Nolan was taken
aback. He stepped quickly in front of his mother and shielded her.
âI've told you not to lose your mind here. If you've got issues, take them back to the Tanner
household.
Lucy!â
Nolan had already pressed the intercom and summoned his secretary, but Madeline was still there,
spinning her wild tales, âI'm doing this for your own good, can't you see that? You only see that
woman! But sheâs deceiving you, you
knows
If it wasn't for her ulterior motive to get close to you, why would she go to such lengths to put on
an act in front of you... You're so cautious, yet you still got played by that video she made. Why
can't you see the truth? What do you even like about her?â
Madeline was still lost in her delusion of self-righteous love. She saw Nolan as a pitiful man blinded
by love.
And worse, the woman he loved was that tramp, Regina.
Lucy, ever the efficient secretary after years of service, entered swiftly with two security guards in

With two big men in control, Madeline's frenzy was quickly subdued and she couldnât. move an
inch. She couldn't believe Nolan would resort to such brute measures agains her, âHave you never
cared for me, not even a little? I love you so much, yet I'm reduce this. I'm the one who truly has

her out without care. They'll escort her back to the Tanners, but sheâs hardly a proper miss of that
household. She only got the surname after her mother married Mr. Tanner. She and Regina don't
share a drop of blood.â
Aline hadn't realized Regina came from such a background. âNo wonder she spoke of Regina that
way. It seems like sheâs had a tough time in that family all these years.â
Nolan nodded, âStepmothers often come with stepfathers.â
"So, do you feel sorry for Regina?â Aline asked quickly, but Nolan, as always, remained collected and
didn't give his mother a clear answer. âAlright, Mom, you better head back now. Please stop prying.
I've made up my mind, and when the time comes, you could talk. to grandma about the wedding
preparations.â
Meanwhile, Regina had returned home and headed straight for her father's study.
