Aggressive Wife novel (Madeline and Noah)

Chapter 452 Did I Do Well Today?

"The contract you signed clearly stated that if you ruined this engagement party, you would have to pay a financial penalty of two hundred million. If you have that much money, go ahead and make a scene." Rowan had previously revealed Annalise's true feelings to Oscar, so he no longer felt sympathy for her, not even a smidgeon.

That brainless idiot was a ticking time bomb, and had she remained with the Solace family, it was only a matter of time before she brought trouble upon the entire family.

To end the relationship now would therefore be a good idea.

Annalise's face paled when she heard about the two hundred million compensation because she remembered the three hundred million she had obtained by secretly selling some of her grandfather's properties and antiques. She'd already spent all of that money on the film.

The film director and actors were underperforming, raising concerns about the film's completion. She was terrified of losing all of the money she had invested.

If she caused more trouble today and lost another two hundred million dollars, her grandfather would undoubtedly develop a distrust for her.

However, she could never bring herself to swallow this insult.

Seeing that her three older brothers lacked the genuine desire to help her, Annalise was seething with rage. Taking advantage of Rowan being preoccupied with flattery from others while Oscar and Alexander were idly chatting away, she quietly slipped to the restroom.

Alexander was the first to notice she'd gone. He didn't think much about it when he saw her going to the restroom, or perhaps he hoped she'd do something, even if it meant breaking up Noah and Madeline and causing an even bigger commotion.

After all, this is Noah's party. The more ruckus there was, the better. It was justice served for what he had done to Madeline.

In the restroom, Annalise contacted Liam, who came in disguised as a woman and handed her a glass bottle.

"Mix it in the drinks. Just a sip and it will take effect," Liam said with a devious grin on his face.

Annalise had no time to be disgusted by him. She quickly exited the restroom, holding the drug bottle in her hand.
