Love’ss

After sending Natalie away, Andrew heard some noise coming from the lounge.

He walked over and opened the door. Madelyn was under the covers, engrossed in a phone call.

She looked stern as if she was reprimanding someone.

When she saw him, Madelyn quickly said, “It’s decided then. Let’s leave it at that!”

With that, she quickly hung up the phone.

“Darling,” Madelyn said.

She put her phone aside and reached out for a hug.

Andrew walked over and embraced her. His warm breath on her neck made her feel even more at ease.

He held her slim waist and asked, “Who were you calling? You looked so serious.”

Madelyn replied, “That was the hospital. They were asking if I should take the medicine for a month or just two weeks. I said two weeks, but Dr. Barton suggested a month.”

“Doctors calling to remind patients about their medication?”

Andrew raised an eyebrow.

“Yes. They are very responsible,” Madelyn responded earnestly, without a hint of insincerity.

Andrew chuckled indulgently. However, a flicker of concern flashed across his eyes.

“Daniel will bring your medicine over soon. Make sure to take it.”

“Okay.”

Madelyn nodded obediently.

The intracranial bleeding was a grave condition, so both Andrew and Madelyn took it very seriously.

Andrew gave her a few more reminders before heading off to a meeting.

Madelyn was also exhausted. Andrew’s relentless demands had left her sleep–deprived, forcing her to catch up on rest during the day.

When Andrew arrived at the conference room, Rowan was already waiting by the door.

Andrew asked sternly, “Is he inside?”

“Yes.”

Rowan nodded respectfully.

Josiah had been waiting since morning. Andrew originally planned to interrogate him earlier, but a call from Roger inviting him to lunch delayed him.

Andrew pushed open the door to find Josiah sitting in a chair. Andrew’s arrival caused Josiah to tremble in fear and immediately drop to his knees.

“Mr. Miller, I was wrong. I was really wrong. Please forgive me. I was momentarily possessed!”

Josiah’s voice trembled. His face paled with terror.

Andrew sat at the head of the table, exuding an air of authority and danger. The sound of a match striking echoed across the room, and as the flame grew, there was a faint smell of burning.

Andrew remained silent, which only intensified Josiah’s anxiety.

Josiah desperately cried out, “Mr. Miller, I had no choice. My grandmother is sick and needs 50 thousand dollars for surgery.”

Andrew lit a cigarette and took a puff. He coldly glanced at Josiah.

“You’ve been working at Miller Group for three years, and yet you don’t have 50 thousand dollars?”

Miller Group had always been generous to the legal department. Josiah was highly skilled in his field. Hence, he could earn nearly 100 thousand dollars a year.

However, he had endangered Madelyn’s life for just 50 thousand dollars. The more Andrew thought about it, the angrier he became.

Josiah stammered, “I–I…”

“How long has Caleb been bribing you?” Andrew asked.

His tone grew even colder now.

Josiah’s already pale face turned ashen at Andrew’s words. He realized that Andrew knew he was working for Caleb.

Andrew’s eyes darkened at Josiah’s silence.

“Rowan, Andrew called out.

While waiting outside, Rowan heard his name being called and entered.

“Mr. Miller.”

Andrew said, “Breaking the law deserves-

“Please! Mr. Miller!” Josiah interrupted Andrew.

His voice was filled with panic.

He knew that his career would be over if Andrew personally ensured his imprisonment. He might never see the outside world again.

Josiah knew that he couldn’t go to jail.

He pleaded desperately, “I know a secret about Mr. Garcia and Mrs. Miller. Please! Mr. Miller, spare my life!”

“A secret?”

“Yes. This secret could be very useful to you, Mr. Miller Josiah blurted out hastily

Andrew glanced at Rowan, who stood nearby. His gaze turned icy and dangerous.

“Spill itr

The air thickened with tension, suffocating everyone in the room.

Josiah thought about Caleb’s kindness toward him as he considered his options. Nevertheless, he had no other choice. Caleb was done for, and Josiah couldn’t afford to be finished either.

The latter lowered his head and said, “Mrs. Miller is not Mr. Garcia’s biological daughter. She’s not the real Madelyn Garcial”

Silence descended heavily after his revelation.

Andrew’s fingers tensed involuntarily. Meanwhile, Rowan’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Andrew,

sensing the intensity in his gaze.

Rowan kicked Josiah’s back firmly.

“Explain yourself. What exactly happened?”

n was a w

Madelyn

a woman Andrew had nurtured and cherished. It would be devastating if she turned out to

be an impostor now.

Andrew wondered about the whereabouts of the real Madelyn if the one by his side was an imposter. He considered that the true Madelyn might have been killed by the Garcia family.

Josiah felt the weight of their hostility enveloping him. He realized that they hadn’t fully grasped the truth.

He knelt on the ground and trembled.

He stammered, “I–I don’t know the specifics. Maybe the infant abandoned at the hospital years ago was taken before you found her, Mr. Miller. So, the Madelyn you raised isn’t really from the Garcia family.”

At that moment, the heavy air of animosity eased slightly.

Rowan breathed a sigh of relief. He figured the problem was manageable if this mishap was its root cause. It was fine as long as the current Madelyn was genuine.

But if she wasn’t, Rowan dreaded the consequences.

“When did you find out?”

Andrew finally broke his silence. His tone betrayed a subtle relaxation.

It seemed Madelyn not being Caleb’s biological daughter was the most satisfactory outcome for him. However, Andrew needed to understand how Caleb knew. Even after discovering Madelyn wasn’t his daughter, Caleb still exploited her to secure those major projects.

Josiah summarized the situation. It turned out that Josiah had been a poor student sponsored by Caleb.

Caleb’s purpose was to shape a positive image as an entrepreneur.

Five years ago, just before Josiah’s graduation, Caleb was involved in a serious car accident on his way to Josiah’s award ceremony. Madelyn was with him at the time and suffered a head injury.

However, Caleb was losing a lot of blood and urgently needed a blood transfusion. The only person

around at that moment was Madelyn.

At that critical moment, they discovered Madelyn had a rare P blood type. Upon learning that her blood type was incompatible with the Garcia family’s, they realized that Madelyn wasn’t Caleb’s biological daughter.

The child abandoned at the hospital by the Garcia family all those years ago wasn’t the one the Miller family had rescued. The whereabouts of the real one now remained a mystery.

Still, it could be confirmed that Madelyn wasn’t the daughter of the Garcia family.

Andrew’s eyes narrowed, a cold glint in his gaze.

“Was Caleb the only one who knew the truth?”

“Yes! Everyone who was there was silenced by Mr. Garcia, including Mrs. Garcia and Ms. Elena. Not at single word leaked out.”

As to why Caleb withheld this information, it must have been because of the ten years Madelyn spent at the Miller residence, where he saw the potential for exploitation.

It was no wonder that Caleb benefited from taking various projects through Andrew afterward. Moreover, the entire Garcia family had a stake in them.

It was fine for them to benefit from Madelyn, but their actual treatment of Madelyn was abhorrent.

Thinking about the days Madelyn spent in the Garcia family, Andrew’s breath grew more labored. He closed his eyes, then opened them wide with a look of solemnity.

“Rowan,” Andrew called out.

Rowan respectfully stepped forward.

“Mr. Miller!”

“Which projects involving the Garcia family haven’t been retrieved yet?”

“All those projects under Caleb have been halted. Additionally, there are two estates under Mrs. Garcia

and Mrs. Garcia Senior,”

“Retrieve them all at once! Also, clean out the company,” Andrew instructed coldly and ruthlessly. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

With that sentence, he ultimately ended the Garcia family’s prosperity.

Andrew wouldn’t spare the entire Garcia family for having dared plant spies around him.
