Chapter 12

She scoffed, adamant about discrediting Madisyn.

Phyllis’s strategy was clear: by tarnishing Madisyn’s reputation, any future difficulties she faced would not reflect back on the Chapmans.

Typically, people would believe Phyllis’s words.

Elaine’s belief in Madisyn only solidified.

She was shocked to learn of the hardships Madisyn had faced with the Chapmans, relieved only by the kindness Madisyn had received from Celia during her formative years.

Elaine pondered the stark contrast between the luxurious Life Madisyn should have led within her own home and the harsh reality she had endured.
