Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Chapter 23

“Ms. Fleur! Welcome,” a staff at La Merveille Boutique greeted Madeline with a big smile, “Ms. Elise has been expecting you. Please follow me.”

The staff led Madeline upstairs to the designer’s studio. Elise Lambert shrieked with excitement at the sight of Madeline. “Maddie, ma chérie! I miss you so much. You’re finally here.”

Elise gave Madeline a big hug and kissed her on the cheeks. Madeline was not used to the French greeting and lifted a nervous smile. “Hey, Elise. What’s up?”

“You’ve become distant, Maddie,” Elise looked dejected, “Are we not best friends anymore?” Madeline let out a sigh and said, “What do you want, Elise?”

“Fine, I know you love me no matter what,” Elise beamed and continued, “I asked you here because someone wanted to buy Mirabelle. Yes, the wedding dress you designed. Guess who?”

“I have no idea,” Madeline shrugged. Elise lowered her voice, “Angie Grant! I know you don’t like her.”

Madeline was startled. She didn’t expect Angie to act so soon on her plan to marry Noah. “I don’t care. Sell it to her if she wants it.”

“Are you okay, Maddie?” Elise raised an eyebrow, “You designed the dress, and you are going to let your enemy wear it? If you’re strapped for cash, tell me. You don’t have to sell it to her.”
