Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 225

Chapter 225:

Howard was once considered a genius, but he hadn’t released any new products in years and had been staying at home all the time. He might have lost his skills. Noticing the disdain in Corbett’s gaze, Andrew responded coolly, “Yes, so what?”

“I’m looking forward to the outcome,” Corbett answered with a cunning grin. His eyes sparkled with mischief. “Andrew, you have a knack for choosing your team. Everyone knows Howard’s a genius. I can’t wait to see what you two will accomplish together!” His tone was laden with sarcasm.

Howard had been a shining star once, but after being out of the scene for so long, what could he really contribute now? The atmosphere in the hall grew tense, and the crowd seemed to lean towards Corbett’s viewpoint. It looked like Corbett might win this battle.

Even Tatiana noticed the shift in the crowd’s opinions. She smiled slightly, understanding Corbett’s intention in bringing up Howard now. Corbett was really a smart man.

Meanwhile, in the private dining room upstairs, Madisyn was enjoying a unique dinner with Jared, relishing every dish. Jared left the table midway through the meal and ended up taking longer than expected to come back. Concerned, Madisyn went to look for him and found Jared in conversation with a familiar face.

That man was… Corbett?

How did Corbett know Jared?

The two men talked briefly. When Corbett noticed Madisyn and caught her eye, he gave her a chilling smile. His smile sent a shiver down Madisyn’s spine.

“Madisyn, I didn’t expect to see you here,” Corbett said slowly. “Did you come because you knew Andrew was here?”

Madisyn was thinking about how to respond when he continued, “Andrew must be pleased to have such a devoted girlfriend. It will be interesting to see how you two manage when he steps back.” His arrogance was palpable.

“It seems you’re quite sure you’ll take over the reins of the Klein family this time,” Madisyn responded with a subdued smile.

Corbett just flashed a smug smile, then politely excused himself from Jared and left.

Nearby, Tatiana had been engrossed in her phone until something caught her eye. She looked up at Madisyn, her expression shifting to shock and anger. It all made sense now. Madisyn was Howard’s sister!

That was why she had always been opposed to her!

“Madisyn,” Tatiana’s gaze turned fierce as she clenched her teeth. “You really should back off.”

Madisyn quirked an eyebrow. What was going on? She wondered.

With a haughty tilt of her head, Tatiana sneered, “Is your opposition to me all because of Howard? Just so you know, there’s no future for Howard and me!”

Madisyn frowned, completely baffled. Could someone really be this self-absorbed?

Looking at Tatiana indifferently, Madisyn responded gently, “I’m sorry, but Howard simply isn’t interested in someone like you.”

Tatiana scoffed, “Do you think that bothers me? Why did Howard join Andrew’s company, and why are you always targeting me? Isn’t it all because I broke up with Howard? We’ve been separated for a long time, and we should keep it that way. But if you keep this up, I’ll have to respond.”

Tatiana’s voice was frosty. Clearly, her success as an actress wasn’t just due to luck. Stunned by Tatiana’s outburst, Madisyn was left speechless.

Meanwhile, Tatiana strode away with Corbett, exuding disdain. Jared gave Madisyn a puzzled look, unaware of the history between Tatiana and the Johns family. After Madisyn briefly filled him in, Jared’s expression turned to one of outrage and revulsion.

“I can’t believe Tatiana is that kind of person. I used to think she was decent! We’re cutting all business ties with her and Corbett from now on!”

“Agreed.”

“Should I reach out to the Klein Group then? How much should we invest?” Jared asked Madisyn.
