Chapter 15

The more she acted out, the more displeased he seemed. His towering figure loomed over her. "Let me ask you one more time. Who are you? Think before you answer!"

Madeline pursed her lips. "I am Madeline Grant, didn't you already have me investigated, Mr. Quincy? It's just a pity that I'm not your ex-wife."

There was a silent rage in his eyes. "You should count your lucky stars that you aren't the real Madeline!"

"Why?"

The glint in Madeline's eyes darkened with every thought.

She immediately tried to send him away!
