Even one percent of it would’ve been enough to cover his medical bills back then, but you didn’t even want to see me.
What’s the use of sugarcoating the matter? I’m 28 this year, not 18.” Never in Tyrell’s wildest dream had he imagined Madison to be this blunt.
People usually put on a facade during parties like this.
However, there was one thing he overlooked—Madison didn’t have to be a goody-two-shoes anymore.
He didn’t respond to that.
His wife, Millie, joined the conversation instead.
“How could you say that, Ms.
Evans? We were sad that your family was in trouble.
Tyrell was really on a business trip back then.
“It seems like money wasn’t the only thing your family lost.
You’ve also lost basic manners.
Look at the way you’re acting.
Lending a hand is not an obligation but an act of will.
Are you trying to guilt-trip us?” “Sorry, Madison.
My wife is usually outspoken.” The couple took up the roles of the bad guy and the good guy.
“Tyrell, what’s going on?” Someone came up to him.
This person was obviously trying to get in Tyrell’s good books.
“Nothing, I just ran into an old friend.
Remember the Evans family? The one that went bankrupt 11 years ago?” Despite his gentle demeanor, his words were rubbing salt on Madison’s wound.
Back then, the Evans family was quite well-known in Aldenvine.
Many pitied them when they suddenly announced bankruptcy.
After that, Madison disappeared as well.
If no one brought the family up, everyone might’ve soon forgotten about the Evanss.
That family was the water cooler talk for a long while.
It was a mystery how Jeff offended Hunter, leading to the Evanss’ downfall.
It was a heart-wrenching story.
People wouldn’t bring this up on this occasion since they had to maintain their pride.
However, Madison’s remarks had raised Tyrell’s hackles.
As someone who had retired from a high position, he was held with high regard everywhere he went.
Now that Madison had embarrassed him, he wished he could do something to regain his pride again.
Considering how Jeff was someone beneath his station in the past, he perceived Madison as a mere small fry.
He simply assumed that she was all puffed up because of his initiative to approach her.
The higher one climbed the ladder, the lower their tolerance was.
If they enjoyed high social status, they would bear no room for disobedience.
They only served the people who were more powerful than them.
Humans were born this way.
It was pitiful yet pathetic.
The bystanders were simply nobodies who wanted to make themselves shine in front of those stronger than them.
“The Evans family? I remember them.
I heard they went bankrupt because they offended that man from the Williams family.” “They deserved it.
I wonder how that small-time businessman managed to provoke that man, though.” “Speaking of, the Evans family is bankrupt.
How did you enter the party, Ms.
Evans? We haven’t heard news about you for years.
Did you…” Someone was misleading the crowd to take things the distorted way.
“Jeez! Who brought her in? Can’t he be more sensible enough to know what kind of party this is? How could he bring such a disgrace to the party?” The discussion didn’t stop.
It was free from filthy words, but their mockery stung all the same.
How disgusting.
Some of these people had asked for sexual favors from Madison back then, clueless that she was Hunter’s wife.
In the end, she was degraded and didn’t receive a single penny.
Worse still, the men’s wives misunderstood the situation and hit Madison before driving her out of their houses.
11 years later, these families were all at the top of the pyramid.
That was why they were invited to today’s party.
They stood on the same side while hiding their true colors, pointing fingers and throwing shade at Madison.
Still, Madison had experienced enough to stay unbothered.
The more they acted up right now, the harder they would fall when the announcement was made later.
Instead of explaining herself, she merely stayed quiet and watched.
Her silence made Tyrell feel awkward.
It was as though her faint smile was the best reply she could give.
He coughed wryly.
“Enough.
Stop it, everyone.
She’s just a young lady.
Let’s not make things difficult for her.” His son, Neal Monroe, failed to take the cue and acted up.
The fact that his family was rising by leaps and bounds fanned his ego.
Neal couldn’t bear to see Tyrell losing respect in public, so he chimed in, “Ms.
Evans, my father is your senior.
Shouldn’t you apologize for the way you spoke to him? If you apologize, we can gladly put an end to the matter.” “Apologize? Why should I? Did I lie about anything?” Madison questioned back.
In fact, Madison would’ve forgotten about the issue if Tyrell hadn’t brought it up.
It was already in the past.
She could understand his stance.
He was simply protecting himself, so she had never thought of revenge.
However, the Monroes had life so easy these years that they had forgotten what kind of place this was.
Tyrell was now picking fault with her simply because she ignored his facade.
Since he wasn’t giving in, Madison figured that there was no need for her to back down.
“Uncle Tyrell, you were a member of the Bureau of Land and Resources when you first met my father.
“Back then, you tried to earn favors from him because you wanted to climb higher.
It was thanks to my father that you were able to become the head of the Municipal Planning Bureau.
“I don’t wish for you to remember my father’s goodwill.
When my family went bankrupt and he was in the hospital in need of money for surgery, I visited your place.
You were at home, but you chose to avoid me.
“I can understand that you were trying to get out of trouble’s way.
Still, I can’t tolerate how you want to brush everything off with mere pretentious words when you couldn’t be bothered to do anything back then.
“I was stating the facts and yet I’m forced to apologize? This is ridiculous,” she exposed Tyrell, humiliating him more.
There was an old acquaintance of hers in the crowd as well.
It was Calista, the one who told Andrea something and indirectly killed Jeff.
Later, Hunter set Calista’s family up and they went bankrupt.
Calvin helped the maiden in despair and married her.
They became parents of two children, and life made Calista a better person.
As Ch worked for Hunter, Calvin now held a certain influence in Aldenvine.
That was how Calista was able to attend today’s party.
She didn’t imagine she would meet Madison again here.
Jeff’s death was something Calista couldn’t get over.
If she had not told Andrea that just to butter Andrea up, Jeff wouldn’t have died due to shock.
All these years, Calista had been hoping for an opportunity to apologize to Madison.
“Calvin, look.
Isn’t that Madison?” Calvin turned his head after he was done talking with another person.
His gaze landed on Madison, who was the center of the gossip at the moment.
Years had shed the youthful naivety off her, turning her into a blossoming flower.
Not even the light makeup could cover her striking beauty.
Calvin couldn’t help but admire her beauty at first glance.
“Looks like she’s in trouble.” Others might not be well aware, but he knew what had happened between Hunter and Madison.
Therefore, Calvin reckoned that she was here because of Hunter.
The news regarding Hunter and Andrea was exposed, but he managed to bury the news quickly.
