Chapter 24 Doesn’t She Deserve Her Love?
She held the glass and took a sip to act cool.
“Stay positive. You’ll be married and have children. They’ll be your close family.”
William sighed. “It’s not an easy thing to marry someone I love.”
Madeleine agreed.
A man of quality would only be keen on a very few women. Most of the time, women pursued him and failed.
William said again, “Are you in love with someone?”
“No.”
Madeleine pursed her lips. She is sober in the game of love. Unrequited love was never the thing she would indulge in.
William wore a charming grin. “Perhaps you’ll be soon.”
Madeleine thought she had to wait until her baby was born and Vincent divorced her.
Madeleine smiled and changed the topic. “I’ll make a few drafts according to your needs. You can choose one you like.”
“Okay.” William nodded.
Madeleine walked him to the elevator. “I’ll send the drafts to you by email.”

The elevator opened, and William stopped her from leaving.
“Wait, Madeleine”
He walked closer and touched the end of her hair strand with slender fingers.
She blushed. “What… What’s wrong?”
“Stay still.” He took down a scrap of paper from her hair.
She scratched her head with embarrassment.
What was she thinking?
“Thank you!”
Vincent spotted all this.
He grew furious and walked to them with a sullen look.
“William, why are you here?”
William shrugged. “Aunt’s birthday is coming. I’ll send her a customer necklace.”
He smiled at Madeleine. “Text me on WhatsApp.”
He walked into the elevator.
Madeleine could tell the two men weren’t close to each other. Their greetings were like business.
She wanted to leave when Vincent’s sulky voice sounded.
“Follow me to my office.”

She kept her head down and followed him unwillingly.
Vincent kicked the office door closed.
The scene was imprinted on his brain. He was burning with anger.
“Did you forget my warning?”
Madeleine paused. She wouldn’t listen to his unreasonable warning.
“Mr. Romero, it’s just work. Let’s keep it professional. You’ll never let private feelings affect your work, right?”
Her words were like a thorn in Vincent’s throat and hurt him a lot.
He whirled around and stormed up to pin her against the wall.
“Save all the talk.”
Madeleine worked up the nerve to raise her eyes and stare at him.
“Well, I’m just telling the truth. We should treat every client politely and fairly, regardless of their identity, right?”
Her words only made his anger grow like wildfire and almost erupt from his chest.
He grabbed her head with both hands in fury and put his fingers into her thick hair.
“If you’re this stupid, let me make it clear for you. William is never into you. He approaches you with other intentions.”
Madeleine trembled as if her spine was shot.
What did he mean?

Did she deserve her love?
Wasn’t she allowed to be loved because she was nobody?
She tightened her fists.
Vincent stamped on her dignity and crushed it into pieces.
