Chapter 2934


    Madeline was pacing back and forth, her anxiety levels through the roof. “Mom, have you lost your


    mind? Why on earth did you call Domingo? Now they all know where Regina is. You’ve just ruined


    everything. What were you thinking?”


    But Imogen was beyond reasoning. Tears streaming down her face, she pped Madeline across the


    face. “You scared me to death! What if he had hurt you? How could you expect me to live with that? I


    raised you, and you think I could just watch you walk into danger? I told you to stay away from


    Domingo, but you went behind my back. And now this mess? Are you out of your mind? I just wanted


    us to live a peaceful life. Why can’t you just listen?”


    Madeline was fuming. Ever since her mom got pregnant again, she seemed to have given up on


    dealing with Regina. But Madeline couldn’t let it go. Regina was like a thorn in her side, a constant


    irritation. Without getting rid of her, Madeline felt like she couldn’t breathe.


    “Don’t you know I have feelings for Nn? But she took him from me. How do you expect me to just


    stand by? There can only be one of us!”


    Her words were cold, but she didn’t expect Francis to suddenly burst through the door, catching both


    women off guard.


    Imogen, tears still in her eyes, was shocked. “Francis, let me exin. Madeline was jus joking…”

    Madeline’s face fell. She didn’t know how to face Francis. Her heart was heavy with gu In front of


    Regina, her hatred felt justified. But Francis had always been good to her, an now, calling out for the


    death of his daughter felt unbearable.


    He scoffed, “So, it turns out I’ve been raising a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Have I treated you poorly? You


    know the answer. And yet, this is how you repay me? Plotting against my daughter with your biological


    father. Impressive, Madeline Tanner. No, you’re Madeline Skinner. Seems like you’ve never forgotten


    yourst name. My mistake was letting the wolf into the house, only to put my own daughter in


    jeopardy.”


    “No! Dad, please don’t say that. It’s all my fault If I hadn’t been so blind, Domingo wouldn’t have been


    able to manipte me like this. You have to believe me! Domingo has ulterior motives. He wanted to


    get back with Mom, drive a wedge between us, hoping you’d divorce and he could swoop in. Please,


    you have to believe me. I never intended for any of this to happen!”


    Imogen red at her daughter.


    Madeline was indeed her mother’s daughter, throwing even Imogen under the bus to clear her name.


    But what she failed to see was that at this point, Francis would never believe a word she said.
