Comeback Of The Adored Heiress

Chapter 1229:

She raised her hand and snapped a photo of Madisyn and Jared as their gazes locked. With a swift motion, she handed the phone to her assistant, instructing him to get it to Andrew. Then, without a second thought, she made her way toward Madisyn and Jared.

Madisyn didn’t recognize Lilian, but Jared did. His eyes widened in shock when the woman they had just been discussing appeared in front of them.

Jared leaned in cautiously, lowering his voice.

“Why is Lilian here? Boss, does she know you’re J?”

Madisyn frowned, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

“I’m not sure. Let’s see what she wants.”

Jared stepped forward, his posture defensive.

“Whether we’re a couple or not, what’s it to you?”

Lilian, noticing how Jared instinctively moved in front of Madisyn, couldn’t contain her irritation, her possessiveness flaring. Originally, she had planned to pretend to be cordial for a while, but with an obvious rival now before her, Lilian’s patience snapped.

Her smile shifted into something darker as she faced Jared.

“Okay, whether you’re a couple or not really isn’t my business, because starting today, you’ll be my business.”noveldrama

Lilian strutted up to Jared, barely sparing Madisyn a glance. Her gaze, intense and bold, fixated on Jared.

“You’re even more handsome than in pictures.”

Jared recoiled, disgusted by Lilian’s words and the way she sized him up, an uncomfortable shiver crawling down his spine. He quickly stepped back, his voice dripping with wariness.

“Lilian, are you out of your mind?”

Lilian raised an eyebrow, unbothered by his retreat, her focus only on what she wanted.

“Hmm? You know me?”

Jared’s face twisted into a frown, a mixture of confusion and distaste in his expression.

But Lilian was utterly pleased with herself.

“Since you know me, that makes things easier. Jared, I have taken a liking to you. Starting today, I’m going to pursue you, and you can only be with me.”

“Pfft. Cough, cough, cough…” Madisyn, who had been quietly observing as a background character, couldn’t help herself. She had expected Lilian to be after her, but no—Lilian had come all this way just to stake a claim on Jared, declaring she had “taken a liking to him.” The irony of it all made Madisyn choke on her laughter.

The coughs and suppressed laughter snapped Jared out of his daze, and he turned to look at Lilian, who was now glaring at Madisyn.

“What’s so funny? Instead of laughing, you should learn some feminine virtues. You have a fiancé, yet you’re trying to seduce another man. Madisyn, I don’t care what you do with other men in the future, but don’t even think about Jared!”

Her words were crude, and Jared’s gaze shifted from Lilian to one of distress and resentment.

Madisyn, dropping her hand from her mouth, stepped forward to stand beside Jared, meeting Lilian’s sharp eyes with a look of equal intensity.
