Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 277

Chapter 277:

“Yes, Courtney only played half the piece, but Madisyn played it all the way through. It’s rare to see that kind of talent these days.”

“Indeed. How could Mr. Klein’s girlfriend be anything but exceptional?”

The guests began to lavish praise on Madisyn, their gazes filled with admiration for her. Clearly, being Andrew’s girlfriend meant she was no ordinary person.

Overwhelmed by all the compliments, Courtney felt faint and nearly collapsed. A tightness in her chest made her feel uncomfortable.

How was this happening? She was baffled. Madisyn could paint, was knowledgeable about antiques, and could play the piano as well? Was there something she didn’t know? Courtney’s face lost color, and Tatiana helped her up, murmuring, “Courtney, take it easy. I’ve just come across some fresh details about Madisyn. I’ll fill you in later. We’ve got other ways to ruin her.”

Hearing these words, Courtney managed to compose herself and nodded. Madisyn rejoined Andrew, and together they became the focal point of the entire banquet, receiving praises from all corners. Tatiana observed this, her jealousy mounting.

Given that this was a gathering for the entertainment industry, many attendees who met Madisyn eagerly presented her with opportunities for her artists.

Would Edge Entertainment outdo Global Entertainment someday? No, she was determined to prevent that!

Andrew was busy introducing Madisyn to various guests. The event proved to be extremely productive. Some guests were even eager to discuss partnerships with Madisyn right then and there. Many did that merely because of her connection with Andrew, thinking that a recommendation from Madisyn would clinch a deal with him.

Yet, as they conversed with Madisyn, they started to view her differently.

“I hadn’t realized you are so knowledgeable, Miss Johns. Quite remarkable for your age!”

Madisyn offered a slight smile, exchanged a few courteous phrases, and after cementing the deal, the individual departed, making room for others to approach her.

“Miss Johns, I’ve always respected Edge Entertainment and have been looking to work with you,” a man said with a smile. “Take a look; this is our latest fashion show. We’d like to have one of your artists participate, and we’ve already selected someone.”

“Sure, who have you chosen?”

“Maxine.”

Maxine, not just an actress but also an ex-model, was known for her striking figure. Madisyn considered briefly before responding, “Alright.” Their discussion progressed smoothly.

In the midst of their talk, Madisyn spotted a familiar figure from the corner of her eye.

Susan?

Without thinking, Madisyn dashed in that direction. Yet, when she arrived, there was nobody there. Madisyn found it odd. Had she imagined it?

Andrew noticed her unusual behavior. “What’s going on? Madisyn?”

“I thought I saw Susan,” Madisyn said, touching her forehead. “I’ve been seeing things that aren’t there lately. Susan shouldn’t be here.”

“Could it be you’re just exhausted?” Andrew asked, concerned.

“I think I’m alright,” Madisyn reassured, and they both left the area together.

The figure who had been hiding behind the pillar now stepped forward, watching Madisyn leave with tears forming in her eyes. Madisyn seemed to be doing fine, and having Andrew with her was comforting.

With a slight smile, Susan exited the banquet. She had attended the event today with her fiancé for some networking. She had already made their relationship official; she had no other options.

In a spacious private room filled with strangers, Susan sat next to her fiancé. Then, unexpectedly, the one sitting on her other side laid a hand on her leg. Startled, Susan let out a cry.

“What happened?” Onyx Norris inquired.

Susan glanced at the middle-aged man next to her, who pretended as if nothing unusual had occurred, and she clenched her teeth, dismissing it as nothing. Yet, the man’s hand wandered over again shortly after. Abruptly, the water Susan was holding spilled, causing the man to yelp as the hot water scalded his hand.

The people nearby immediately showed concern, and Susan offered a forced apology. The man shot a chilly look at Susan. He left to rinse his hand.

Feeling uneasy, Susan thought about telling Onyx she was leaving, but he stood and headed to the restroom before she could speak. Left with no choice, Susan waited.

The middle-aged man returned quickly and grabbed her hand, whispering in her ear, “Susan, I’d advise you to be obedient.”

“I’m Onyx’s fiancée!” Susan said, her voice shaking, stunned by the man’s boldness. Was he not concerned about being seen?
