Chapter 154 Cruel Fate
Crystal nodded. “Alright, we should go now. I’m sorry for the trouble we were causing you.” After meeting up with Cameron, Crystal was glad that she was able to vent her anger out on the former, although her anger was still gnawing at her mind. I guess I finally understand why some people would gloat over the misery of the others. It all makes sense now. Feeling gleeful to see Cameron’s miserable state, Crystal seized Madeline’s hand and walked away happily. “Let’s go, Maddie.”
“No, please don’t go!” Cameron shouted behind the ladies. “Please don’t leave me here, Maddie! Save your mother! Get me out of here!”
However, Madeline only looked back and gazed at Cameron calmly with a gaze that was filled with neither vengeance nor rage. When Cameron noticed Madeline’s eyes, she grew even madder because that was the expression that only happy women had. Then, she was reminded of those eyes on Crystal’s face when she used to be their father and brother’s favorite.
Not long after that, Crystal received even more spotlight when she married Michael, who was a loving husband. Crystal’s eyes have always been so pure and glamorous, yet I will never be able to look the way she does. This is all thanks to fate! Crystal gets all the good stuff in life, but I get nothing at all.
Nevertheless, Cameron was devastated when she came to think how her fate had pulled a prank on her. After all, her daughter failed to live a comfortable and wealthy life despite her meticulous scheme. On the other hand, Madeline inherited Crystal’s pure eyes as she didn’t have to work her way to get the life she wanted like Cameron did. No!
This shouldn’t be the way things end up! I set Madeline up by becoming her mother, who is an illegitimate child herself, so that I could make sure she gets treated like a rat in the dirt; she should’ve been just like the younger me. Why didn’t it turn out the way I planned for Maddie, though? Why didn’t she become a poor and despicable woman? No! This is not how it works! This is not how it works!
“Madeline! Madeline!” Cameron screamed maniacally, “Stop right there and get back here! You’re my daughter, so you must repay your debt to your mother! You’re going to get what’s coming to you if you don’t treat me right! You’re going to die a horrible death! You will die a horrible death!”
Deep down, Cameron wished Madeline could rescue her for their old times’ sake. After all, if Madeline was willing to treat her as her own mother, not only would she be able to leave the place, she would do something to turn Madeline against her own parents. If Madeline still cared for her foster mother, Cameron believed Madeline would stand up for her even if Crystal and Michael wanted her behind bars, which would lead to a standstill between the lady and her parents, unlike the heartwarming scene she just saw. Unfortunately for Cameron, none of her plans ever worked out successfully.
Damn you, Madeline! How can you abandon your foster mother after reuniting with your biological parents? No matter how hard Madeline tried to scream to get Madeline’s attention, the latter never looked back again. Thus, she collapsed onto the ground in despair and rapidly slammed the ground while complaining, “No!
This is not how it should be! This is not how it should be!” Deep down, Cameron’s plan was to have Angie take over Madeline’s place so that her daughter could enjoy endless wealth and comfort while Madeline would suffer from disrespect and insults just like her. When Crystal grew old and was about to die, she would tell her about the secret and gloat over the regretful look on her face.
While that fantasy had flashed her mind countless times, Cameron would always feel euphoric every time she thought about that, but sadly for her, she never got to see it happen in reality. After all, Crystal had long discovered the truth and taken Madeline back home with her. From that point onward, Madeline began to live a decent and happy life as part of the Wendel Family.
On the other hand, Angie was back to the life she rightfully belonged to as she was taken to the Colt Residence, where her fate remained unknown. Why is fate so unfair and cruel to me? What have I done to deserve a joke like this?! I hate it! I hate this!
As she felt anger surge through her, Angie painfully grouped her chest and wished she could just die instead.
In the meantime, Michael was seen wrapping his arm around his wife’s shoulder while Crystal was holding Madeline’s hand. When the three of them stepped out of the building, they were instantly greeted by the bright sunshine that shone on them. Then, Michael titled his head and pinched Crystal’s shoulder, admiring his wife’s beautiful looks. “Well, everything is finally over, so let’s start afresh now. We’re going to live together as a family and never leave each other’s side again.”
“What’re you talking about?” Crystal seized Madeline’s hand tightly and coyly said, “Our daughter is going to visit the Hart Family later in the afternoon.” Upon witnessing Cameron’s pathetic state, Crystal finally lightened up a little. However, she was still slightly bothered by the fact that Madeline would be away from her because she was already married to Sebastian. For that, she couldn’t help but wish that Madeline was just a ten-year-old girl whom she could love and keep by her side all the time.
“Ugh…” Michael shot a gaze at Madeline and forced a smile. “Well, we’re always together in our hearts even though she may not always be by our side. We have Nicholas in Wendel City, and since he is so capable, there is nothing much for us to worry about there. If you want to spend more time with Maddie, I guess we could stay in Elsenburg a little longer. Our subsidiary company in Dusktown is the most important branch after the headquarters in Wendel, so I guess it won’t make much of a difference for us to stay here.”
“That’s right!” Crystal’s eyes lit up as she seized Madeline’s hand. “Maddie, what do you say if your dad and I stay here for a little longer?” Before Madeline could reply, she turned her attention to Michael and said, “Wait a second. I think we might as well just live here permanently since Dusktown is so much more developed than Wendel is. Besides, Joseph is here, and Connor is about to come here soon, so why don’t we shift our company to Dusktown as well?”
“Well…” Michael bitterly replied, “Our father…”
At that moment, Crystal snapped out of her trance and said, “Yeah, that’s right. Since Wendel Corporation is based in Wendel City, shifting the company is no trivial matter, and I think there should be proper planning about that.” Since she knew that her father-in-law was still around, Madeline understood that Michael was too kind to leave him behind and move to Dusktown.
While everyone else knew that Michael had always obeyed Crystal’s every wish, only the lady knew it herself that she mustn’t take her husband’s kindness for granted, or their relationship could take a turn for the worse. On the other hand, the reason Michael always went along with Crystal was because he knew she was understanding and would never do anything to make things difficult for him.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
