“That brat!”
Archie clenched his fist. His eyes were icy cold.
“| didn’t expect Dakota to be so despicable, being with someone like Cameron!”
Madison cursed Dakota through gritted teeth, “I didn’t know Dakota was such a person either. A person’s true nature is indeed hard to
discern.”
“But, | think the most likely possibility is that your friend is taking advantage of Cameron,” Archie said in a deep voice. “Dakota’s taking advantage of Cameron?” Madison said, startled.
“That’s right,” Archie said.
“Aside from the fact that there’s no comparability between the Jennings family and the Price family, as far as | know, the Jen family has become insolvent recently. It’s impossible to coope with such a debt-ridden family.
“This time, Dakota must have made this choice because Camero had asked Lord Blackheart for a favor.” Lord Blackheart was the chairman of Darth Holdings. With just a word from him, the project would proceed.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“So, that's it!” Madison finally understood. No wonder Dakota and Cameron had gotten so close! It turned out that Dakota was just
using Cameron! “What a cunning woman!” Madison said, looking displeased. Then, she turned to Archie.
“I'm sorry, dear. It’s my fault. | shouldn’t have invited Dakota to be my bridesmaid. None of this would have happened otherwise, and your project wouldn’t have been given to someone else.”
“Dear, this isn’t your fault. You don’t have to feel bad about it.” Seeing Madison sinking into self-blame, Archie comforted her. However, deep in his eyes, a sinister glint flickered.
He sighed, pretending to be embarrassed, and then said, “Indeed, this project is something my father has emphasized over and over again. If | mess up this time, I'm afraid that when he returns, he'll think that. I've neglected my duties and that I’m distracted by my love life. So, he
might interfere with our relationship.
“My dear, what should we do then? Is there any other way to salvage
the situation?”
Madison immediately panicked when she heard that her relationship with Archie might be affected. She wanted to marry into a wealthy family and live a good life!
“There’s a way, but it might require temporarily sacrificing some of
your
our career,” Archie said, looking hesitant. “I know that saying this might cause some misunderstandings, and | understand that you've worked hard to get to where you are today...”
“Dear, how can | help you?” Madison responded readily. As long as
she could help Archie without affecting his father’s opinion of her,
she was willing to do it.
“Well... | need you to transfer a few of the larger projects currently
under your company to me temporarily to help me get through this difficult situation,” Archie said, still looking uncomfortable.
“No problem, dear. After all, we'll be a family soon. What’s mine is yours. Take any projects you need. I'll ask the person in charge of the other company to contact you!” Madison agreed without hesitation.
She didn’t think much about it and just wanted to help Archie as much as possible.
“Really?”
Archie felt a surge of excitement but wore an expression of self- blame and guilt. “I'm so lucky to be able to marry someone as wonderful as you. It’s a
pity that our wedding was disrupted by that scoundrel Cameron. I’m
so powerless...”
“Dear, please don’t say that. That vile and shameless person can’t be compared to you at all. He just used some despicable tricks!” Madison reassured him, completely taken in by Archie’s performance.
“Well, that’s still because I’m so powerless,” Archie said as he sighed. despondently again.
In his heart, he couldn’t help but sneer. This woman was really an idiot for believing what he said so easily.
Who cared about feelings? What he wanted was the high-quality business partners she currently had in the capital. Once he completely took over, it would be time for him to kick this worthless
woman to the curb!
