As Madelyn looked at Cecilia now, it seemed like Cecilia was trying to intentionally provoke Madelyn, perhaps out of jealousy. At that moment, Madelyn had a sudden sense of pity for Cecilia. Over two lifetimes, Cecilia had remained steadfast in her love for Zach. However, Madelyn would not back down this time.
So, she stepped forward, locking eyes without changing expression. "Ms. Samford, why don't you ask him since he's here too? Is it him or... me who doesn't want to separate now? | can understand why you're here to stir up trouble suddenly. After all, being a mistress isn't pleasant. However, Ms. Samford, | won't play along if you're here to provoke me deliberately. If you want to vent your emotions, go look for him instead of me!" When Madelyn finished speaking, people on the side muttered, "Huh? No way! She was promoted from an assistant to a Deputy CEO, but still being someone's mistress!" "Yeah! | really didn't expect that. | used to see her being pretty independent in the news and thought she was a strong woman. It turns out she was just faking it!" "The thing | despise the most in my life is from a mistress to a wife! It's so disgusting! Mr. Jardin is bringing his wife to take wedding photos now. | really don't know what she's doing here." Every word of those remarks landed squarely in Cecilia's ears, instantly contorting her expression. "Shut up, all of you! Madelyn, What are you being arrogant about? You might feel triumphant now, but soon enough, you'll be pleading with me!" Then, she left proudly.
The staff who was originally serving Cecilia was afraid that Madelyn would be angry and quickly apologized to her. As they left with Cecilia, they ensured the dressing room door was closed.
Madelyn relaxed her clenched fist, feeling a heavy burden lifted from her heart. However, at this moment, a photography assistant knocked and said, "Mrs. Jardin, have you finished your makeup? Mr. Jardin is ready.” Madelyn turned around and quickly composed herself. Then, she grabbed her bag from the table, slammed the door, and left without saying anything.
Zach looked at Madelyn, who walked out and asked, "What happened?" Madelyn raised her hand and slapped Zach across his face, tears of humiliation in her eyes. "Zach, you jerk!" A group of people, including Madelyn's makeup artist, photographer, and bridal stylist, walked out. Zach looked angry and asked, "What happened exactly?" The people who had just witnessed the scene were like they had seen a farce and dared not speak. One of them stammered and told everything in detail when Zach questioned them.
Right after leaving, Madelyn ran into Kevin, who just reached. However, he blocked her way, "Ms. Jent."
