Chapter 470 Phoebe Gets into a Car Accident

Madison was chillin' on the table, legs swinging, giving the scruffy dad and his daughter a cold stare.

"Grace," she said, "if you don't quit Queen Entertainment, I'll be here every day wrecking your store. Let's see how you run a business then." Grace's eyes welled up with tears as she glared at Madison. "Why are you doing this to us?"

Madison leaned in a bit, sneering. "Squashing a bug like you is nothing to me. If you want peace, stay outta my sight."

Grace clenched her teeth. "I'm calling the cops. They'll arrest you."

"Do you dare?" Madison shot a mocking look at Mason. "You don't dare. If this blows up, it's bad news for everyone."

Grace wiped her tears and started dialing the police, but Mason grabbed the phone before she could finish. "Grace, go upstairs. I'll handle this."

"Handle it how? You just let her walk all over us. Dad, why are you like this?" Grace questioned, exasperated.

Despite Mason not being one to fear trouble, an unusual dread of Madison seemed to linger within him, a fact that perplexed Grace.

Madison laughed arrogantly. "Keep Grace away from me, or I'll be back."

With that, Madison hopped off the table and headed for the door.

She'd only taken a couple of steps when she froze, staring at Phoebe standing at the restaurant door, her face darkening. "What are you doing here?"

Phoebe met her gaze. "I brought Grace back. Madison, does Theodore know you're causing trouble on someone else's turf?"

Madison's expression shifted. She walked slowly over and stood in front of Phoebe. "Phoebe, if you say a word, I'll make sure you can't stay in the Reynolds family." Phoebe smirked, "I'm curious, how exactly are you gonna do that?"

"Phoebe, you better act like today never happened. If you tell Theodore, you're
