Chapter 403
The daughter of the Crown Group?
Madelyn realized who was the other party speaking to Jane was.
He was none other than the chairman of the Crown Group, Micheal Laton.
Michael was even more powerful than Jack, who was the chairman of the Fowler
Corporation.
The Crown Group was such a powerful corporation that it was once comparable to the D.Y.
Group.
When she was young, Madelyn had attended various banquets and met Micheal a few times. She also knew that Micheal and Jack were good friends.
***it!
How could a piece of trash like Jane be the daughter of the Crown Group?
The status was even higher than the heiress of the Fowler Corporation.
If Jane agreed to Micheal’s proposal, she would become the heiress of the Crown Group.
Madelyn would end up looking like a clown compared to her.
Moreover, if the Fowlers knew about this, they would cherish Jane even more.
Suddenly, someone knocked at the door.
“Ma’am, we’re here to serve you dessert.”
Madelyn was so engrossed in eavesdropping on the conversation next door. At the same time, her mind was also consumed with jealousy and hatred for Jane.
She did not hear the waiter talking outside the room.
Seeing no response, the waiter pushed the door open and entered the room.
As soon as he entered, he saw Madelyn standing in such a strange position.
Stunned, he asked, “Ma’am, what’s wrong with you?”
Only then did Madelyn snap back to her senses. She hurriedly put down the cup and wore
her mask.
She glared at the waiter. “What are you doing? Don’t you know that you have to knock on the door before coming in? Did I tell you to come in? Is this how you treat your guests in this
teahouse?”
Gritting her teeth, Madelyn spoke in a hushed tone. She was afraid that Jane would discover that she was next door. The soundproofing in the teahouse was not ideal.
The waiter looked aggrieved. “Ma’am, I knocked on the door and asked if I can come in. You didn’t say a word. The door wasn’t locked either. I thought you will be fine with me coming in so I…”
“All right, all right. Just put the things down and leave.”
Madelyn was anxious to continue listening to the conversation next door.
Meanwhile. both of them continued talking next door.
“Goddaughter?”
Jane’s eyes flickered with a cold light.
She felt that everything sounded so ****.
“Mr. Laton, you were present that night there, and you saw how I humiliated Jack Fowler. You should know that I don’t care about kinship anymore. Do you think that just because I’ve cut off all ties with the Fowler family, I’m feeling lonely? Do you think I’ll long for family ties and will be willing to be your goddaughter?”
Jane’s tone was like a ferocious beast lying dormant at night.
It was dangerous and sinister.
Michael had underestimated her.
Micheal could hear the disdain in Jane’s tone. He explained patiently, “Miss Fowler, don’t be angry. I’m only making a suggestion. I respect you very much. My family admires you too. When I went back that day and told my family about you, they felt very regretful. If Miss Fowler is unhappy with my idea, just treat it like a joke. We’ll pretend that nothing has happened.”
“I don’t want to hear such a suggestion again. You bigoted capitalists like to use kinship as a bargaining chip. You are all blinded by greed. Family ties are not important to you. You’re more interested in who can bring you the most benefits.”
“I feel sad for the children in your circle. I pity them very much. Kinship is never existent in your family. Mr. Laton, think about it. Anyone who has a brain won’t believe what you just
said.”
With that, Jane stood up and prepared to leave.
Micheal did not expect Jane to get so angry. He quickly went up and apologized. “I’m sorry, Miss Fowler. If I have offended you, please forgive me. I didn’t mean to offend you.”
“Do you think I can’t tell whether you mean it? If I am just an ordinary orphan, will the chairman of Crown Group bother to see me? He’ll probably think it’s easier to crush me than crush an ant. At the end of the day, you’re just like Jack Fowler? Now he’s only proud of me and wants to use me as a bargaining chip when he realizes how valuable I am.”
Although Jane knew that if she agreed to Micheal’s request, she could use it to her advantage and deal a ****to the Fowler family.
However, she was not ****enough to risk her future so she could take her revenge on the Fowler family.
She would never be happy working with Michael. The Laton family was no different from the Fowler family.
“Mr. Laton, I suggest you learn more about the life of an ordinary family. So what if you’ve gained a lot of money, glory, and status? In the end, you’ve lost more than all these. You’ll never understand the love and warmth that a family can bring.”
Jane’s tone was so frosty that anyone near her would shudder.
11:39
She strode past Micheal and stormed out of the room.
A pale-looking Micheal was left in the room.
After chasing the waiter away, Madelyn only managed to hear the last part of their conversation.
However, the words were not clear as they were standing far away from the wall.
“What’s going on? What exactly happened?”
Madelyn bit her thin lips.
She felt very anxious.
It was all that waiter’s fault. When she got to the bottom of the matter, she vowed to file a complaint against him.
Bang!
Madelyn was almost scared out of her wits.
Micheal had picked up a cup and smashed it to the ground.
“Ahhh!”
The shattering sound in the room attracted the manager’s attention Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Knowing that the person in the private room was the chairman of the Crown Group, the manager walked in cautiously. “Mr. Laton, what’s wrong? Is something wrong?”
Micheal took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to beat the manager up. “Nothing. Get
out!”
“Yes.”
Seeing that Micheal was so angry, the manager did not dare to stay any longer. He quickly
scurried out of the room.
“****it. Jane Fowler, no one has ever dared to talk to me like this. You’re the first!
“You’re really capable. I, Micheal Laton, will remember this day.”
Micheal gritted his teeth in anger.
Ever since the Crown Group became more prosperous, everyone started fawning at
Michael.
They were willing to tolerate looks of disdain from Micheal. They were happy to wait for Micheal for hours and be fooled around by him. They willingly swallowed their pride to be in his good books. Jane’s words revealed deep mockery, contempt, and indifference.
What she did to him was unforgivable.
She even accused Micheal of being a bigoted capitalist.
No one had ever spoken to him like this.
Micheal left the private room, seething in anger.
He was boiling with rage as he stormed off. It was as if he was not here to drink tea but to ***someone.
Madelyn quickly went to the door of the room and watched in secret.
She saw Micheal’s back as he walked off
She thought anxiously. “Are you leaving already? Where’s Jane? Did she agree to be Mr. Laton’s goddaughter?”
