Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 12

She scoffed, adamant about discrediting Madisyn.

Phyllis’s strategy was clear: by tarnishing Madisyn’s reputation, any future difficulties she faced would not reflect back on the Chapmans.

Typically, people would believe Phyllis’s words.

After all, why would adoptive parents tarnish their own child’s reputation?

However, Elaine’s expression darkened with each passing moment of the confrontation.

Her brief time with Madisyn had shown her a young woman of integrity and kindness, starkly contrasting with Phyllis’s behavior.

What kind of parent would publicly disparage their own child?

Elaine’s belief in Madisyn only solidified.

She was shocked to learn of the hardships Madisyn had faced with the Chapmans, relieved only by the kindness Madisyn had received from Celia during her formative years.

Elaine pondered the stark contrast between the luxurious Life Madisyn should have led within her own home and the harsh reality she had endured.

This realization weighed heavily on her heart.

“Madam, I would advise you to keep your distance from her, lest you invite trouble upon yourself,” Phyllis said, trying to sway Elaine further.

Unable to contain her indignation any longer, Elaine brushed Phyllis aside with a determined motion.

“You’re draped in fineries, yet wher

e are hers? Does she possess even a single luxury?” Elaine’s voice rose in fury.

“You treat your child with nothing but cruelty and spite, and then malign her in public.

How can you be so utterly devoid of compassion?”

Phyllis, taken aback by Elaine’s scolding, struggled to formulate a response.

Meanwhile, Jenna’s expression darkened ominously, her eyes flickering with malice.

Who did this woman think she was, talking to them in such a manner?

How could anyone still treat her so harshly after she returned to the embrace of the Chapman family?

The Chapman family held a place among the top ten noble families of Gemond!

The tension escalated as Jenna, with a mocking softness, challenged Elaine’s stance.

“And who might you be, madam? You seem to be doing quite well for yourself.

Are you really so naive to be taken in by Madisyn’s tales?”

“How dare you!” Elaine snapped.

She bristled with anger.

The implication that she lacked intelligence was infuriating.

Phyllis nodded in agreement with Jenna, adding, “Exactly.

It’s not easy to amass wealth, and if you trust Madisyn, she’ll swindle you out of all your riches!”

Madisyn, unfazed and sharp, retorted with a frosty look, “You’re mistaken.

If there’s any swindling to be wary of, it’s in your family.

”

Phyllis scoffed at Madisyn’s defense.

“What do you mean by that, Madisyn? What have you ever brought to our family? Nothing! But Jenna she’s been with us just a few days and already the Johns Group has expressed interest in a partnership.

Jenna is truly a blessing.
