Chapter 154

Madison’s anger seemed to radiate, freezing the atmosphere around them.

The strength in Joe’s hands completely loosened, disbelief appeared in his eyes, and his voice angrily exclaimed, “Jessica, do you know what you’re saying?”

Madison, her eyes reddened, paused to look at him before walking away without a backward glance.

She didn’t understand why she had used those words. The thought of being called ‘Madison Hale’ filled her with an inexplicable sorrow, as if she were nothing but a name others chose to give her, an afterthought, an outsider.

‘But how can he, when I have clearly already returned to the Daves family… I have no surname of Hale. Madison thought.

Madison left without changing out of her chef’s uniform, her exit was as disheveled as her emotions.

The restaurant wasn’t busy, and thankfully, no one witnessed Madison tearful departure.

The evening breeze gently brushed by, and the air outside the house made Madison’s mind cool down slightly.

Madison sniffed and remembered that her car had been borrowed by Cullen.

With the Rose Garden located away from the city center, Madison couldn’t easily hail a cab. The only option would be to swallow her pride and ask Joe, who was somewhere behind her, for a ride..

But pride held her back, and the sting of Joe’s words echoed in her mind, making her reluctant to turn around.

Madison held her phone, debating whether to call Joe or just spend the night at Rose Garden. She knew mentioning it to Greg would secure her a place to stay.

Hesitating, a man in the driver’s seat of a car parked nearby with the engine still running suddenly widened his eyes and pointed through the car window.

“What the hell, Leo? Isn’t that Jessica? Why is she crying? I swear, if someone hurt her, they’re dead.” Cullen shouted out.

Cullen muttered in dissatisfaction, intending to turn off the engine and get out of the car. However, his actions suddenly came to a halt halfway.
