Chapter 132
Krista’s face alternated between pale and green as she sat in the armchair.
She hadn’t experienced such cold treatment since returning
to the country, and the humiliation made her even more
resentful of Madelyn.
Her phone abruptly buzzed–it was her mother, Angeline.
Krista answered the call impatiently, “Hello?”
Krista’s tone momentarily stunned Angeline.
“Krista, did you handle the matter? Your father is still waiting to hear the news!”
“No. Madelyn is also at the company, and she refuses to talk about the Equilwood Village project.”
Krista pushed the blame for not being able to accomplish what she had promised them that noon onto Madelyn.
Hearing that Madelyn was making things difficult for them, Angeline immediately fumed, “Doesn’t she stay out of company matters? She never used to go to the company!”
“She probably came specifically because of us. Mom, I’m sure reclaiming Equilwood Village is just the first step. She’ll definitely take back everything she once gave to us.”

Madelyn indeed planned to reclaim what she had given to the Garcia family, starting with Equilwood Village.
Angeline sounded furious.

The images of Andrew doting on Madelyn crossed Krista’s mind. She found his love for Madelyn was genuine and deep.
He was harsh to others yet tender to Madelyn.
Krista spat, “Madelyn is probably getting her revenge, and Andrew supports her!”
“You can tell from their interaction?”
“Yes!”
Krista was sure that Madelyn must be seeking revenge.
That was because they knew what Madelyn used to be like. If she willingly gave something away, she wouldn’t easily
take it back.
Krista figured that something must have happened to change Madelyn now that she was retrieving everything she had given away.
Chapter 132
On the other end of the line, Amelia was at a loss.
She wanted to say something but couldn’t find the words in the face of Madelyn’s cold and firm tone.
Caleb, who was beside her, kept signaling her with looks.
Feeling awkward, Amelia forced herself to say, “Will your have the lawyer handle the things your grandmother left your as well?”
She paused before adding, “If she knew you were taking over everything this way, she would be heartbroken, wouldn’t she?”
Madelyn furrowed her brows.
They were merely talking about the shares earlier. Madelyn thought Amelia had forgotten about the things Clara left her.
A cold look crossed her face.
“I understand.”
She hung up the phone immediately.
She felt frustrated but found solace in the warmth of Andrew’s palm on her cold hand.
