Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 270

Chapter 270:

Milly’s lips tightened, her expression shadowed by a deep melancholy.

“Don’t worry,” Madisyn reassured her gently. “You’ll get the role. I just know it.”

Milly met Madisyn’s gaze but remained silent, her eyes filled with uncertainty.

With nothing else to do, they decided to leave. Together, they headed toward the car parked at the edge of the road, only to be accosted by Tatiana and Kiley.

Crossing her arms over her chest, Tatiana radiated arrogance. “I knew it, Madisyn. You just love going against me, don’t you?”

“Going against you?” Madisyn blinked, genuinely puzzled.

“Isn’t that what this is?” Tatiana sneered, her tone dripping with suspicion. “You must’ve gone through a lot of trouble to replace this girl just to sneak her into my crew. You’re doing all this for Howard, aren’t you?”

Only then did the pieces click into place for Madisyn. It turned out Tatiana thought she was plotting against her. “Tatiana, Howard deserves so much more than you.” Feeling indignant, Madisyn let out an exasperated sigh. “Do you really think I’d waste my time trying to undermine you? It’s a blessing my brother can be with the right person now that you two have split up.”

Tatiana threw her head back and laughed as though she’d heard the most absurd joke. “Howard can be with someone better than me? He’s crippled! Who in their right mind would want to be with him?”

Kiley chimed in with a sneer, “Tatiana stuck by your brother for years. The least you could do is show some gratitude. Instead, you keep plotting against her like this? Pathetic!”

Madisyn was left speechless, her frustration simmering just below the surface. How could these people be so shameless?

Tatiana abruptly stopped laughing, her voice lowering to a growl. “This is your final warning, Madisyn. Don’t you dare show your face in front of me again. If you keep stirring up trouble for me, I won’t hold back.”

“That’s right! Tatiana’s going to be a part of the Klein family—she’s way out of Howard’s league!” Kiley chimed in, a satisfied smile tugging at her lips as she gazed at Tatiana with admiration.

Their exchange quickly drew the attention of the nearby artists who had just finished their auditions. The buzz of whispered gossip grew louder as people exchanged knowing glances. Everyone knew the history between Tatiana and Howard, but they didn’t expect Madisyn to show up with such a strikingly beautiful woman just to make trouble for Tatiana. Having drawn their own conclusions, most of the onlookers sided with Tatiana.

“Tatiana did nothing wrong. Your brother is disabled and seriously injured. Did you seriously expect her to stay with him and end up a widow someday?” one woman muttered, shaking her head in disbelief.

“So that’s Madisyn’s plan? How pathetic,” another chimed in, her tone dripping with sarcasm.

“Sister-in-laws like her are the worst,” a third person grumbled. “Tatiana, we’re behind you all the way!”

As more voices joined the chorus of support, Tatiana’s expression grew increasingly disdainful. Narrowing her eyes at Madisyn, she sneered, “See? Everyone’s on my side, Madisyn. I had been with Howard for years, and this is how you repay me? Where’s your conscience?”

Kiley, emboldened by the growing support, raised her voice. “That’s right! Stay away from Tatiana, or you’ll regret it. Once we spread what you did, Howard will be ridiculed and criticized by everyone!”

Madisyn’s eyes darkened, the light in them fading to a chilling coldness as Kiley’s words hung in the air.

Kiley’s lips curled into a smug smile when she saw Madisyn’s reaction. “Why are you glaring at me like that? Howard’s nothing but a washed-up cripple. Who’d be foolish enough to waste their life looking after him— Ah!!”

Before Kiley could finish her taunt, her words were smothered as a hand clamped over her mouth, yanking her off her feet in one swift motion. The world tilted around her as she was lifted. Milly had only felt a sharp gust of wind rush past her, and in the blink of an eye, she saw someone step forward—Milly. With a single hand, Milly had seized Kiley and hoisted her effortlessly into the air.

Despite Kiley’s petite and slender frame, she was over 80 pounds, yet Milly held her as if she weighed nothing at all.

The surroundings fell into stunned silence. Tatiana’s mouth hung open, eyes wide with disbelief at the scene unfolding before her.

Milly’s delicate features were devoid of any emotions, her expression as cold as winter frost as she said, “Say that again, if you dare.”

Kiley’s heart pounded wildly in her chest as she dangled helplessly, like a fly caught in a spider’s web. A shiver of terror raced down her spine, and before she could control it, a warm trickle of urine escaped her, splattering onto the ground below.

The acrid scent filled the air, and those nearby recoiled in disgust, stepping back. Kiley was so scared out of her wits that she literally peed herself!

Shame and fear warred within Kiley as she realized what she’d done, but survival instinct overrode any concern for her dignity. She shook her head frantically, pleading silently for release.

Without warning, Milly’s grip loosened, and Kiley crumpled to the ground, landing in the puddle of her own filth, tears streaming down her flushed cheeks.

As Kiley gasped for breath, Tatiana snapped back to reality, her shock giving way to indignation. She narrowed her eyes at Milly, her voice trembling with fury. “You’re too violent! This is nothing but bullying!”
