However, to marry a man more influential than Glenn, she would have needed to choose someone from one of Ansport’s four most prominent families.


    Lacking the means to do so, she eventually settled for Rowan.


    After marrying Rowan, she believed she was living well-until she saw ine again.


    News of ine’s life always reignited Sarai’s jealousy and dissatisfaction.


    Life is full of unexpected twists.


    Now, a change of leadership loomed over the Johns Group.


    Sarai seemed very smug, and eager to unt this in front of ine, so she called ine.


    “ine,” Sarai greeted with a feigned tone of sadness, “how are you?”


    A N G E L A ‘s L I B R A R Y


    “I’m fine.


    Why are you calling?” ine was puzzled since her sister -inw had never reached out before.


    Sarai continued, “I called because I was worried you might be distressed since Madisyn is gone.


    Are you holding up okay? Life can be so unpredictable.”


    “What are you talking about?” ine was perplexed.


    Hearing this, Sarai smirked inwardly, thinking ine was too overwhelmed by sadness to understand.


    “It’s unfortunate what happened to Madisyn, but we who are still here need to carry on living.”


    “Enough! ine snapped, growing irritated.


    “I know you’ve never liked us, but that’s no reason to wish harm upon Madisyn!”


    Sarai was taken aback.


    Didn’t ine know that Madisyn had passed away?


    This revtion made things even more intriguing.


    Sarai feigned deep sorrow and said, “It seems you haven’t been informed, ine.


    Perhaps Glenn kept it from you to spare your feelings.novelbin


    Unfortunately, Madisyn’s passing was tragic.


    I heard the fire was intense, and the car waspletely burned.


    Madisyn might have been entirely consumed by the mes.


    It’s so heartbreaking.”


    “What are you talking about?” ine’s face went white.


    “The car ident on Senna Street.


    ine, you might want to see for yourself.”


    ine was skeptical, yet she feltpelled to look the car ident up on the inte.


    Sure enough, she found the car ident on Senna Street and recognized the license te on the car.


    It was indeed Madisyn’s car!


    ine felt weak, and the phone slipped from her grasp.


    Her mind went nk, and she nearly fainted.


    It took her some time to regain herposure.


    Shaking, she picked up her phone again.


    From the other end, Sarai’s voice came through, saying, “ine, ine?”


    ine ended the call and dialed Glenn.


    The sound of the ringtone sent a chill through her.


    Finally, Glenn answered, “Darling, how are you doing?” Glenn’s voice was soft.


    “Has something happened to Madisyn?” ine asked, her voice quivering.
