Madelyn chuckled, "I was just teasing you guys." Clement and Dorian did not expect that. They thought, ‘Madelyn finally jokes." The next moment, Madelyn's expression turned stiff when she saw Zach and Cecilia walking closer.
Dorian and Clement were shocked, too. The four of them were looking at Madelyn at the same time.
Clement reacted, "M-Mr. Jardin, Ms. Samford!" Cecilia was wearing a red dress draped in a black blazer. She smiled confidently, "Madelyn? Why didn't you tell us that you're here? Zach and | would've gone to get you if we'd known." Cecilia turned to Zach, "Zach, why didn't you bring her along?" Madelyn sneered without replying to Cecilia. She did not show much expression on her face. She just ignored them, walked toward the private room, and pushed the door open to enter.

Dorian asked, "Madelyn, isn't he your brother? Back then, some news reported that you were going to marry him. Is it true?" Clement gave Dorian a warning look.
Madelyn unabashedly responded, "It was fake news. Do you think a brother would marry his own sister?" Dorian nodded as he thought, 'It makes sense. After all, the last time we returned to Ventropolis to hold the art exhibition, Mr.
Jardin himself admitted that Madelyn was his sister. So, the news must be false." Zach and Cecilia, standing outside the room, heard what Madelyn said.
Zach gently pushed away Cecilia's hands that were holding him. She was not angry. Instead, she felt satisfied for successfully getting back at Madelyn.
Cecilia thought, ‘This thirty billion dollar contract is worth it for making Madelyn uncomfortable!" Madelyn had never thought much about the relationship between Zach and Cecilia. She felt it was none of her business. She would rather not know Zach and Cecilia at all.
The lively atmosphere in the room helped Madelyn quickly push aside those distracting thoughts.
The people inside sang, played games, and drank.

When the dishes were served, and everyone was ready to eat, a waitress suddenly brought another bottle of wine.
Someone who was familiar with wines saw the Etlinish letters on the bottle and was shocked, "Damn, isn't this the two-million- dollar wine on the menu? Who ordered this?" Madelyn was distributing cakes to them. When she heard that, she looked over and frowned. She looked unhappy.
The waitress said, "Mr. Jardin from Jardin Corporation is in the opposite room. He sent this bottle of wine over. Rest assured, this bottle of wine has already been paid for." This reply shocked everyone. They proceeded to stare at Madelyn.
They thought, "The only person here who can have such a connection with Jardin Corporation is Madelyn. After all, she's Mr.
Jardin's fiancée." Many people started talking about it.
