Chapter 2015 ConservativeMildred was a ball of pure anger and continued cursing even after leaving the guest room.

In the living room, she glared at her husband furiously and said, “It seems like you're siding with that woman. Why did you stopme from hitting her? She must be sick of living. How dare she slap me!"

With a grim expression on his face, Norton replied, “Mildred, have you forgotten our objective? If we fail to become in-laws withthe Cheever family, it's just a matter of time that Southern Star Group will crumble due to our debts. Everything will be over for usif that happens!”

Mildred gradually fell silent after hearing that.

She would hardly be interested in who that illegitimate child married if Southern Star Group had not fallen into crisis. After all, itwas none of her business.

“But you've seen for yourself how uncooperative Lorraine was! Are there any other methods you're intending to use?”

Norton fell into deep thought. A moment later, the housekeeper walked over and reported, "Mr. Sheffield, food is ready."“Bring it to our guest in the guest room and make sure she eats. If she refuses to eat, you will be fired!” Norton waved a hand.Startled, the housekeeper nodded continuously before taking the food upstairs.

After knocking on the door, she entered the guest room with the food.

Lorraine glanced at the dishes and was rather impressed by the spread. Without waiting for the housekeeper to speak, shepicked up her utensils and started eating at once.

The housekeeper was slightly stunned as she had expected to have a hard time persuading the guest to eat.

Lorraine was no longer the same silly woman she used to be. She knew that not only would starving herself not help her, but itwould also cause her to feel weak and lethargic.

She had decided to eat well and make sure she remained in good health. That way, it would give her an advantage if she everhad to fight Mildred again.

Besides, she did not want Madilyn to worry when they saw each other again.After all, she had lived long enough to understand what was good for her.It was already one in the afternoon when Madilyn woke up at the hotel.

She and Jonathan had arrived in the city the previous night. Madilyn had taken a shower when they reached the hotel and shewas looking forward to having some fun with Jonathan.

However, when she walked out of the bathroom dressed in a bathrobe, she saw that the man had already fallen asleep on thecouch probably due to exhaustion.

As such, after covering him with a blanket, she returned to her room to rest, feeling disappointed.“Maddy, are you up yet?” Jonathan called out to the woman outside the door.

Although the two of them were already officially in a relationship, Jonathan still made sure that he adhered to certain boundaries.He would not open the door without Madilyn's permission.

“Just come in!” Madilyn got out of bed and put on her bathrobe before heading to the bathroom to wash up.

Only then did Jonathan open the door and entered the room. “Lunch is ready. | didn't wake you up earlier as | wanted you to restmore.”

He took a glimpse at Madilyn and could clearly see the perfect curves of her body, even under the baggy robe.

He could not help but take another glance at her slender legs, which were fully exposed.

The corners of Madilyn's lips curled up when she noticed the man's gaze.

After washing up, she walked toward Jonathan casually before throwing herself into his arms.

Even though Jonathan was slightly flustered by the woman's sudden action, he wrapped an arm around her waist instinctively.However, he loosened his grip a moment later when his hand came into contact with her bare skin.

Madilyn was rather amused, seeing how uptight the man was. Standing on her tiptoes, she planted a kiss on his cheek.

Taken aback, Jonathan froze for a few seconds before regaining his composure. “Let's head to the Sheffield residenceimmediately after lunch to pick up Mdm. Xander. | don't think Norton Sheffield would do anything to her before seeing you,” hequickly said.

Madilyn nodded and replied, “All right. Give me a moment. I'll go get changed!”Then, she opened her luggage and rummaged through her clothes.When Jonathan heard that the woman was intending to change, he left the room at once.

Madilyn let out an exasperated sigh before mumbling to herself, “I didn't expect him to be so conservative. Or... could it bebecause he's still inexperienced in this area?”
