Andrew extended his hand, clearly signaling for Madelyn to hand over her phone. Alarmed, she stammered, "D-Darling, give me five minutes to deal with it. I promise. you'll be satisfied." "Madelyn Garcia, hand over the phone." The look in his eyes deepened, and his tone was dangerous.
"Darling, I was wrong. Please trust me." Earlier, she was too focused on Andrew's injury to wrap up the loose ends, a decision she regretted.
She would be in trouble if Andrew saw Easton's call. However, he stubbornly demanded to see her phone. His hand was still extended.
Biting the bullet, she finally turned in her phone. When Andrew took her phone, she grabbed his arm and pleaded, "Um, don't be angry, okay? You're the only one heart." Then, she closed her eyes and prayed.

Andrew's eyes narrowed when he saw the caller ID. Madelyn could sense the shift in his mood even with her eyes closed.
When her eyes fluttered open, she saw Andrew getting out of bed stiffly. She trembled at the sight and
hugged him from the back. "Darling, I didn't have the time to remove everything about him. You have to trust my feelings for you."
"Let go," he hissed in a deep voice.
Be it in the past or present life, anything related to Easton would certainly set Andrew. off as he regarded Madelyn's first love as his archenemy.
"I'm not letting go." Madelyn hugged his waist tight. She couldn't imagine what would happen if she let go. She immediately squeezed herself into his arms. “Darling! Andrew grabbed her arm and peeled her off his body. Right as she
was about to explain herself with a tearful look, Easton called again. She gritted her teeth at this troublemaker who would only get her into hot water.
Andrew took the call on her behalf, much to her shock. If only she could disappear at this moment! Why did this happen to her?
Easton called to her in a gentle voice, "Maddie."
She was dumbstruck. Easton and Elena were certainly made for each other. How

could he act so gently after he had insulted her? He should have become an actor.
Upset, Andrew scowled. "It's me."
Madelyn tightened his grip on Andrew, feeling like she was near a volcano that might erupt and kill her at any time. Easton's breathing grew irregular when he heard Andrew's voice. He greeted his uncle coldly, "Hey, Uncle Andrew."
"Glad you recognize your uncle. Don't you think it's rather inappropriate to call my wife by her nickname?"
Easton did not back down. He jeered, "Sooner or later, she'll no longer be your wife. Uncle Andrew, remember the way you forced her to marry you?" Madelyn wished she could rip Easton into pieces. She frantically shook her head under Andrew's murderous gaze.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
The oblivious Easton continued, "She has been wanting to leave you for years. When
back this time, I'll help her to-"
"Shut up, Easton Miller! You bastard! Do you think I'm unaware of your relationship with Elena? How dare you reach out to me?"
She cut him off and fired back at him. At first, she had wanted to focus on
reconciliating with Andrew. But since Easton and Elena wanted to stir trouble, she would teach them a lesson.
Silence hung in the air. Then, she snatched her phone and ended the call. Andrew watched as she blocked and deleted Easton's number.
"Darling, don't listen to him. I'll never leave you," she explained in anger while silently vowing to get even with Easton.
Andrew pulled her into a hug. The trust that he had recently restored in Madelyn started to crumble. He warned her, "Madelyn, you'd better not lie to me." "I'll go to hell if I ever leave you!"
"Hey-" He immediately covered her mouth when she put a curse on herself. "What nonsense is that?"
She chuckled at the nervousness in his eyes. Guiding his hand onto her cheek, she said, "Don't be mad at me, okay?"
In her past life, she definitely went through hell after leaving him. It was karmic retribution. But why did God punish him as well? The memories pained her heart. Fortunately, Andrew forgave her after she pleaded for his forgiveness, or she would have torn Easton into pieces.
At dinner, Andrew piled Madelyn's favorite foods on her plate. She reminded him," Not too much now. I'll gain weight if I eat too much at night."
"Do you even gain weight?" He shot her a doubtful glance.
Indeed, she didn't gain weight easily. Even then, she could not overeat.
Andrew's phone buzzed. He frowned when he saw the caller. Madelyn noticed it was
a call from the Miller residence's landline.
She urged him, "Answer it. They might be calling about Grandma's birthday event."
He gave her a puzzled look.
She repeated, "Answer it.
Andrew's relationship with his family had deteriorated over many years due to Madelyn. He had not visited them for a long time.
However, she knew that Andrew cared about his family. Plus, Easton was now eyeing Athena's shares after his return.
In the past life, Andrew failed to notice Easton currying Athena's favor due to his distant relationship with his family. Because of it, Easton managed to talk Athena into transferring her shares. Following that, Easton quietly accumulated shares and unexpectedly took over the chairman role from Andrew in a board meeting.
This time, Madelyn would not allow Easton to take advantage of Andrew in the board
meeting.
Under her encouragement, Andrew picked up the call.
"Andrew, come home with Maddie," Grace stated sternly.
Andrew looked at Madelyn, worried that something had happened as this was the first time his family requested him to bring Madelyn home.
Before he could process the situation, Grace continued, "Your grandma has been waiting for two hours."
Grace might not have announced her intentions openly, but Andrew understood the hint.
"Got it." He hung up and turned to Madelyn "Have your dinner. I'll drop by the Miller residence for a bit."
"Wait a minute. Didn't Mom ask you to bring me along?"
He was surprised when Madelyn addressed Grace as "Mom". The last time she did so was in her childhood. Back then, she loved following Grace around and calling her
"Mom".
