to stop him
The man was tall, with a conservative estimate of around five feet ten inches.
He still looked handsome in the poor lighting, like a flawless sculpture.
However, his aura was very cold and unapproachable.
He lowered his eyes, his long lashes casting a shadow on his face.
Then, he stared straight at her.
Madeline retreated slightly because she felt as though a powerful beast was staring at her.
Benjamin was still speaking over the phone. “I know your personality. You’re deliberately pissing me off, right? Don’t act so childishly. To me, Winnie and you have always been different.”
Unexpectedly, the man replied with a slight hint of annoyance. “Shut u
His tone was extremely cold.
Even Madeline couldn’t help but tremble and thought, “It’s so cold.”
- up. Stop disturbing her.”
Only a natural–born leader was able to have such a domineering aura at will.
Madeline took the phone back and asked thoughtfully. “Hello? Did you hear that?”
Benjamin fell silent on the other end.
However, in an
in an instant, Madeline frowned and glanced at the person in front of her again, slightly scared.
She thought, “Isn’t he Steven Wagner, Head of the Japrium Great Four, who is renowned for being a cruel Grim Reaper!”
Madeline thought that she was dreaming and secretly pinched her hand All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
She pondered, “It hurts. How did I accidentally bump into him?*
Madeline felt frustrated. “Thank you for helping me out. I’m leaving now, Please continue with what you’re doing!”
Steven watched her walk away.
When he lowered his head, he saw a girl in a hoodie.
When she raised her head, he saw her beautiful eyes and canned neck.
She wasn’t wearing any makeup and looked supple. She also didn’t seem like the sort who would appear in an internet café
She looked like a good student.
Just then, Alexander came out of the bathroom with a cigarette on his fingertips and said, “Why did you, the head of the Japrium Great Four, come here personally? Isn’t it strange for you to show up at a small internet café in Acocester? I can’t seem to escape you.”
Steven lowered his eyes indifferently to stare blankly at Alexander. “As long as you are alive, you can’t escape from me
Alexander raised his eyebrows and stated, “That’s terrifying, Can you stop treating me like an enemy? You will understand the benefits of having friends someday when you are in need of a friendly face
Steven said in a low and arrogant tone, “There is nothing I can’t accomplish in the world. I don’t need you”
He lowered his head to look at the watch on his wrist. “Don’t waste my time”
Alexander shook his head and said, “As expected of you
Madeline, in the meantime, was panicking inside the private room.
She sat on the couth and sank into it while biting her fingertips with her brows tightly furrowed.
She had only seen Steven from a distance in her previous life.
A man of his caliber with great ability and influence would usually have women trying to win his heart.
Nevertheless, he was different as he was ruthless and merciless.
No one was that desperate to try to seduce him.
He was also known as Grim Reaper, which everyone would evade.
Madeline gradually calmed down. “I don’t think it’s him. Maybe I identified the wrong person. How could someone of his status appear here? That’s right. The world is so big, and many people look similar.”
After she calmed down, she continued to play her game.
Meanwhile, in the Moore residence, Benjamin’s temples throbbed as he stared at his phone. Even his handsome appearance could not hide the anger on his face.
At this moment, Winslet was also in the Moore residence.
She wore a dress and looked at Benjamin distressedly. “Sorry, I shouldn’t have told you that, I also found our today that Maddie seemed to have met a new man. I’m afraid she will go astray since she is young and gullible. Since she won’t listen to Mom’s advice. I thought she would listen to you. I didn’t expect her attitude to be so bad… Winslet said with a slightly embarrassed expression.
Benjamin sat on the couch, looking at over a dozen missed calls on his phone that Madeline ignored.
He frowned.
“It’s not your fault. Winnie, you are kind–hearted. You’re different from Madeline. You’d better stay away Besides, she’s malicious. Since she is so indiscreet, you never know what she might do to you”
Benjamin looked at Winslet worriedly and continued, “You know my feelings. I only care about you.”
He would be overcome by pain if Madeline hurt Winslet.
from her as she might be a bad influence
“Don’t say that. I’m aware that I am not the biological daughter of the Larson family, I can’t be with you because of my status, but I hope you will lead a blissful life. I will be content as long as Maddie and you are both happy. I thought 1 didn’t care about it anymore, but I knew I would never have a perfect life from the day I was exposed as the fake heiress of the Larson family Winslet sniffled.
Benjamin couldn’t help hugging Winsler’s defined body. “Winnie…
Winslet pretended to push him away initially before they cuddled together for a while.
should go home.”
However, Benjamin was reluctant to let her leave. “It’s already midnight. Let me take you home tomorrow morning. Just say that you went to look for Madeline with me, okay?”
Winslet stared at Benjamin and thought, “It’s time to reel him in.”
Therefore, she agreed to his suggestion.
If she has to be honest, Benjamin treated her well. Unfortunately, he was the youngest son of the Moore family and wouldn’t receive many assets as his inheritance.
If he could inherit the Moore family business, everything would have been different.
However, Winslet didn’t mind having him as a backup plan.
After spending the whole night gaming, Madeline couldn’t help but smile at the money in her account
“I made more than 1,600 dollars last night”
She was a well–known actress before rebirth and received an exorbitant salary for appearing in these mov
movies.
Therefore, this amount to her was nothing.

Madeline stretched and sighed out loud. “It’s good to be young. Staying up late doesn’t make me tired.”
Madeline withdrew the money, transferred 2,000 dollars to her grandfather, and left 200 dollars for herself.
When she got home, it was already slightly past eight o’clock.
When she got out of the car, she saw a couple sitting in the car not far away.
She glanced in the direction of the car and saw in the rearview mirror that it was Benjamin and Winslet.
Winslet was wearing a large men’s shirt!
It was evident she had spent the night at Benjamin’s place last night.
Benjamin placed his hand on Winslet’s cheek and stared at her affectionately.
“Winnie, I really want you to be my fiancée.
“Don’t say that. I never thought of replacing Maddie. She is my precious sister. You will always be my
my brother–in–law.”
Madeline sneered coldly. She was only walking on the pavement early in the morning and was met with illicit public displays of affection.
She was irritated.
After taking a photo of the couple being intimate, she knocked on the car window.
“Hello, aren’t you two just wonderfully sweet?”
