Chapter 2913


    Every time Regina heard Madeline speak, it was like a cloud of gloom descended upon her. Initially,


    she couldn’t figure out why, but then it dawned on her-it was probably because she couldn’t stand the


    way Madeline kept dropping Nn’s name as if he belonged to her.


    Regardless of what the future held, Nn was now her husband, fair and square.


    Who did Madeline think she was, unting Nn’s name around as if it was some kind of trophy?


    They weren’t even rted. Why the need for such affectionate name-dropping?


    Regina ignored her and walked directly towards Francis’ study. She had business to discuss with him.


    But Madeline, relentless as ever, blocked her way at the door.


    “Are you deaf? I’m talking to you.” she snapped.


    Taking a deep breath, Regina turned around and looked down at her in feigned surprise. “Oh, were you


    speaking to me? Sorry, I must have missed it. Maybe it’s because you’re a bit on the short side.”


    Madeline huffed, “Enjoy it while itsts. Sooner orter, Nn will be fed up ying the couple with


    you!


    It’s not like you two have any real connection. He’d be better off without you. He was unlucky enough to


    get tangled up with someone as shady as you.”


    Regina couldn’t help butugh. She was shady? What did that make Madeline then?


    Clinging to her father’s surname, spewing nonsense, Madeline really thought highly of herself.


    “Madeline, why are you so full of yourself? What’s it to you if I’m with Nn or not? Whether we stay


    married or get a divorce, it’s not like he’s going to fall for you. You might as well give up on that


    fantasy.”


    Madeline’s face turned beet red, hitting a nerve “What are you talking about? I just can’t stand to see


    him waste his time on someone like you!”


    “Oh, is that so? Wasn’t it you who told me you had your sights on Nn and asked me not topete


    with you? Too bad, Nn was meant for me from the start. You’re always going to be second in line.”


    The moment Regina brought up the past, Madeline’s demeanor darkened significantly. She had indeed


    confessed her feelings for Nn to Regina,


    Regina remembered it perfectly and now was using it to mock her!

    “So, you remember everything, huh? You knew, yet you still went after Nn, you wretch!”


    Madeline lunged at Regina, ready to w her eyes out. But with a swift sidestep, Madeline ended up


    tumbling to the floor with a thud, looking rather hurt.


    “Ouch!”


    Regina wrapped her arms around herself, watching coldly. “So what if I remember? Nn agreed my


    dad’s propose because of me. Did you really think he would spare us a nce if it were you instead?


    Besides, you were never a Tanner to begin with.” Regina’s insinuation was clear: Madeline was never


    even a contender in this game. Shecked even the qualifications to be a backup.


    Even if she now masqueraded as the Tanner family’s second daughter, what did it matter? In the end,


    she was just a Cindere who had to return her ss shoes by midnight.
