Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 385

Chapter 385:

Madisyn was caught off guard.

Howard blushed and said, “Oh, sorry, Madisyn. I should have mentioned that I’m in a relationship with Milly now.”

“When did it start?”

“Well, remember when we talked about her that day? Milly overheard it and wanted to leave. I found her endearing, and she seemed genuinely kind to me. I didn’t want to see her unhappy, so I agreed to be with her,” Howard explained.

Madisyn understood. Howard was always so gentle and considerate, especially towards Milly.

“Well, if you’re happy, that’s what matters,” Madisyn said with a smile.

Howard’s face softened, a gentle, happy expression spreading across it as he seemed lost in thought. Curious, Madisyn asked, “So, who do you prefer, Milly or Tatiana?”

Howard’s expression darkened at the question. He seemed to recall something unpleasant and replied flatly, “I only felt a sense of obligation towards Tatiana.”

“So you didn’t actually like her, then?”

“Not really,” Howard said flatly. Back then, even though he didn’t have feelings for Tatiana, he knew she would be his wife and was quite tolerant of her.

Just then, Howard’s phone rang.

He answered it, and Tatiana’s voice came through, “Howard, I can’t believe you even blocked my number!”

Howard replied coolly, “So what? Tatiana, don’t call me.”

Howard was known for his gentle nature, so his cold response to Tatiana seemed to suggest he harbored deep resentment toward her. But Tatiana didn’t see it that way.

She believed that Howard’s treatment of her was special. Despite his usual gentleness, he would express his frustration with her. She saw this as a sign of their relationship, believing that Howard would only reveal his true self to her.

“Howard, I have something important to tell you. Can I come over?” Tatiana asked.

Howard replied curtly, “Do what you want.”

“I’m downstairs already,” Tatiana said. “I will just stay here until you see me.”

“Do what you want,” Howard said, clearly annoyed.

Tatiana clenched her teeth and said, “If you refuse to see me, I’ll just come in anyway. With my renown, I’m sure to create a scene, and it’ll disrupt your colleagues’ work. That will be on you.”

Howard was taken aback by her threat, and his face darkened. “Fine, come in,” he said coldly.

Madisyn had never seen Howard so indifferent before. She was struck by how much Tatiana could seem to provoke Howard’s disdain.

After the call ended, Madisyn glanced at the phone in Howard’s hand and asked, “Is this the new phone you developed? Can I see it?”

“Of course,” Howard said. “We have several phones available for testing among the employees. You can take one.”

Madisyn accepted the new phone, noting its weight and sleek silver finish that caught the sunlight beautifully. She appreciated its stylish design immediately. While most people might focus on a phone’s quality and performance, like many women, she was drawn to its appearance.

She turned it on, replaceing it operated smoothly with no lag. Howard explained, “This phone is quite different from the usual ones. It connects to your electronics via Bluetooth, allowing you to control everything in your house with the phone.”

“Really? That sounds amazing,” Madisyn said, impressed. This was a feature not yet available on the market.

Howard’s smile widened as he added, “And there’s—” Madisyn wondered what other features the phone might have. Howard took the phone and unfolded it, and the slim device magically expanded into a small tablet computer.

“Surprise!” Madisyn exclaimed happily.

It was like getting both a phone and a tablet at the price of only a phone.

“But will the battery last?” she asked, concerned.

“That’s one of the issues we’ve addressed,” Howard said. “The battery lasts about a day and a half on a single charge, and the usage time is displayed on the phone.”

“Wow, I’m impressed by what you’ve shown so far. This product will definitely be a success,” Madisyn said confidently.

Then, curious, she asked, “With so many functions, how is it so smooth? Will it slow down over time?”

Howard smiled and replied, “This new product is designed to surprise. It might slow down slightly over time, but it won’t affect its performance. The chip inside is developed by our team.”

Madisyn was surprised. She had assumed they were using a foreign chip, given the advanced technology abroad. Typically, to ensure smooth performance, domestic phones used foreign chips, which made them expensive.
