How My Ex Became My Next

Soon, the party began.

Richard and Patrick in the center of the hall were chatting with their guests. The grandfather and grandson looked superior and powerful. Derek walked to them from behind with Madeleine.

Derek said in a slightly low voice, showing his respect for Richard “Mr. Lynch.”

Richard still looked polite but the coldness in his eyes was more obvious. Richard said, “Mr. Donovan, since when have you returned to the list of the top 100 richest people in the world?”

The condescending sarcasm in Richard’s words was obvious.

Derek felt embarrassed. He smiled faintly and said, “I rank exactly number one hundred.”

Donovan Real Estate was far smaller a business than Lynch Corporation. It took Derek a lot of time and effort to get into the list of the top 100 richest people.

“I heard that you are going to introduce your granddaughter to the world tonight.” Derek looked at Madeleine, who was standing beside him, and smiled, “My granddaughter is a very easy–going girl. I think she can be good friends with your granddaughter.”

Madeleine smiled softly, “Mr. Richard Lynch and Mr. Patrick Lynch, it’s a great honor to be here.”

Patrick glanced at Madeleine and said coldly, “Ms. Donovan, my sister doesn’t need a friend who loves plotting car accidents.”

Madeleine’s smile instantly froze on her lips when she heard what Patrick said.

Derek naturally knew why Patrick had this attitude. He had done so many bad things to Gilda. Derek thought what Patrick just said was not surprising since Patrick loved Gilda.

Derek snorted in his heart, ‘So what? Your grandfather won’t approve of her!

Thinking about this, Derek decided to find a chance to talk with Richard privately about Gilda and. Patrick’s relationship.

Richard raised his eyebrow, glanced at Derek and Madeleine, and said, “Guys excuse me.

Derek smiled, “See you later, Mr. Lynch.”

Madeleine found Jensen in the crowd at a glance. “Grandpa, Jensen is here. I’m going to talk to him.”

Derek was still angry about Jensen’s canceling the engagement without discussing it with him first. “That guy doesn’t even want to marry you! Why are you still so obsessed with him?”

Madeleine said firmly, “He will change his mind.”

She held up the hem of her skirt with one of her hands and put the other hand on her belly. She walked through the crowd and came to Jensen.

Madeleine asked, “Jensen, why didn’t you tell me that you had arrived here?” She looked at him happily and expectantly.

Madeleine thought. I know Jensen cares about me and the baby. I just mentioned to him that I was coming to Geleston. He didn’t say anything so I thought he wouldn’t come here at first.

Jensen took a sip of the champagne. “It was decided at the last minute.”

He didn’t even look at Madeleine. He looked around. It seemed that he was looking for someone.

Madeleine looked at Jensen expectantly. “Jensen, Grandpa has been very busy and I am left alone. Can I stay with you tonight?”

Jensen said. I’ve explained the matter about the engagement to your family. We should avoid being seen together.” He walked toward the crowd and left Madeleine behind. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Madeleine’s enthusiasm was completely ignored. She felt extremely disappointed. Her nails stuck deeply into her flesh. She took a deep breath to hold back her tears.

The hatred glistening in her eyes grew stronger. Madeleine thought it was all Gilda’s fault!

Madeleine blamed Gilda for seducing Jensen!

Madeleine thought Jensen wouldn’t have fallen in love with Gilda if Gilda hadn’t seduced him.

Madeleine was worried that her face couldn’t help twisting in anger, which would affect her image and bring disgrace to her family. So she went to the bathroom to retouch her makeup.

To her surprise, she saw Gilda as soon as she entered the bathroom.

Madeleine snorted, “Why do I run into you everywhere?”

Gilda was washing her hands. She elegantly drew a tissue and wiped her hands clean. She raised her eyebrow and asked, “I happened to be thinking about the apology that you promised me.”

Gilda suddenly approached Madeleine, which made Madeleine take a few steps back in shock.

Gilda smiled wryly, “You’re such a coward. Are you going to kneel on the ground before me today?”

“Dream on!” Madeleine glanced at Cilda and said, “Don’t you know you’re cheap? How did you get into this party wearing these lousy staff?”
