Loving Mom 129

Chapter 129

When Madeline realized she was on the verge of being pushed out of the Biggs Group, she decided there was no point in holding back anymore. In one last bid to secure her position, she opted for a marriage alliance.

But fate never did favor Madeline. A few years into the marriage, Denise’s father died in a car accident.

What followed was a public and brutal battle over his inheritance. Madeline went head-to-head with her in-laws, a conflict that quickly became the talk of their social circle.

In the end, she lost.

Denise’s grandparents had never been fond of her-she was just a girl, after all. And after the spectacle Madeline made of things, they simply cut ties with her altogether.

Furious, Madeline stripped Denise of her father’s name and gave her her own surname instead.
