Comeback Of The Adored Heiress

Chapter 120:

Madisyn noticed that some powder had been added to her wine. Kristine sipped her wine, and Josie, along with some others, cheered.

Josie commented, “Kristine is pretty straightforward. You are sisters, after all. Be nice to each other from now on. Madisyn, Kristine has had her drink. You should drink yours too.”

“That’s right. Have a drink.”

Josie’s friends encouraged Madisyn to drink.

Madisyn glanced at the wine glass and chuckled. She found it rather dull that they resorted to such a straightforward scheme. Yet, seeing their eager looks, she lifted the glass.

Kristine sighed in relief when Madisyn took a sip. She smiled. All seemed to go smoothly.

“Madisyn, I hope we can get along well moving forward. I’ll treat you as a sister from now on,” Kristine said warmly.

“Okay,” Madisyn responded flatly.

Then, Kristine returned to her seat.

While eating, Madisyn suddenly appeared somewhat drowsy.

“Madisyn, are you feeling tired?” Susan inquired.

“A bit.”

Just then, Kristine approached again. “Madisyn, if you’re tired, let me help you upstairs to rest. It’s been a long day with the party.”

Susan was about to object, distrusting Kristine, but Madisyn consented before Susan could speak. “Okay.”

With a smile, Kristine assisted Madisyn to her feet, and they headed upstairs.

Susan stared in the direction Madisyn went, feeling a touch of unease.

On the second floor, Kristine led Madisyn to a guest room.

“This isn’t my room,” Madisyn muttered, confused.

Alone with her, Kristine dropped her pretense of kindness. Her expression turned cold. “Of course, it isn’t. I’ve put up with you for too long. Today, you need to disappear.”

With those words, she shoved Madisyn inside.

Then, she locked the door.

Hearing Madisyn’s knocks from outside, Kristine scoffed. She had orchestrated a surprise for Madisyn! It would ensure Madisyn could no longer be part of the Johns family or the social elite.

Pleased with herself, Kristine walked away.

When she reached the bottom of the stairs, she hurried to Andrew.

“Andrew,” Kristine looked worried and said, “Madisyn seems unwell.”

Andrew’s face tensed, and he became cautious. “What happened to her?”

Although Kristine felt jealous, she quickly replied, “She’s sick. Come see for yourself.”

Andrew stood up without a word. Kristine led him to her room, claiming, “She was exhausted, so I let her rest in my room.”

Andrew entered behind her.

Suddenly, Kristine spun around and released something from her hand. Andrew weakened immediately and collapsed.

He stared at Kristine, shocked. “You—”

“Don’t blame me, Andrew Klein.” Kristine locked the door and slowly approached Andrew. She crouched, gazing at the face she had long obsessed over, and caressed it gently. “I’ve loved you for so long. I must have what I desire. Don’t worry. I’ll be an excellent wife.”

With that, she drew his face close to hers.

Her lips nearly touched his.noveldrama

Kristine was thrilled. Her long-held dream was on the verge of realization. Once she married Andrew, she wouldn’t have to fake anything around the Johns family members anymore. As for Madisyn and the rest, they would merely be beneath her.

Kristine was filled with anticipation.

Suddenly, she passed out.

Downstairs, Josie waited in silence. She was the sole person aware of Kristine’s scheme. She despised Madisyn intensely. Despite realizing Kristine wasn’t the frail and pitiful figure she seemed, Josie chose to support her. After all, she and Kristine had been friends for years, and Josie stood to gain if Kristine married into the Klein family.

Josie checked the time. Everything should have unfolded by now. She texted Kristine but received no response. Josie couldn’t help but smirk. Perhaps Kristine was too occupied with Andrew to check her messages?

Josie assumed the silence from Kristine was not a concern. It was about time.

“I’m feeling a bit tired. I’ll head to Kristine’s room to rest,” Josie said to her friends. “Would you like to join me for a rest?”

The girls hesitated. They weren’t very close to Kristine.

“It’s okay. We’re all friends here. There are also guest rooms available. Let’s go,” Josie said.

With that, everyone’s hesitation vanished. The rooms in the Johns family’s home were sure to be beautifully furnished.

They all headed upstairs.

Josie reached the guest room where Madisyn was with a smile, anticipating what she was about to witness. She pushed the door open and saw a man and a woman, both naked. The man’s face was plain and somewhat unattractive.

The girls behind Josie saw the scene and exclaimed, “Ah!”
