Aggressive Wife

Chapter 248

When Annalise heard Liam’s words, she sank into a dilemma, “Although Madeline is a b*tch, she doesn’t look like someone who messes around with men out there.”

“Dear Ms. Solace, you are too naive. Just leave this matter to me. I guarantee that you will see the outcome that you desire.”

“Alright then, as long as you can settle this, I will reward you accordingly.” Annalise didn’t even ask what Liam was planning to do. After all, she was a spoiled lady her entire life. She only cared about results.

On the other hand, after returning to the Maple Forest villa, Madeline changed into an exquisite long dress and put on some light makeup. She curled her hair into a cascading, wavy pattern before heading out with Albert.

She was going to answer Rowan’s appointment. After all, he had put in much effort to pry into the accounting records of the Charity Association just to stand up for Annalise. She decided to see their frustrated looks with her own eyes so that she could finally get this stuffy feeling off her chest.

“Ms. Madeline, Annalise has hired a lot of ghostwriters to put up hate comments toward you and Nadine. Those scandalous news has been circulating on the internet this whole afternoon. What do you think? Do you want to announce Nadine’s true identity?”

Madeline went onto her social media and indeed, she saw various scandalous news titles surrounding her and Nadine.

“Where does Nadine hail from? How does she suddenly become the Ambassador for Philanthropy? Shouldn’t that title belong to Annalise?”

“Nadine is allegedly sponsored by her sugar daddies. She is not worthy of representing the Charity Association. She’s just a lap dog for capitalists.”

“Rumors say that she has been in the prostitution industry since her teenage years. She has sugar daddies all over the country.”

“How can that be? How can the Charity Association stoop so low? Are they just getting led by the nose nowadays as long as there is money?” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“You’re right! The Charity Association was once a noble and dignified organization. Now, it is degraded to an empty shell of a company where b*tches can roam free.”

“After all, their chairman is Madeline, someone who likes to sleep around. Can you imagine how the culture of the whole organization would turn out with someone like her their leader?”

“This is a club for mistresses and playgirls.”

“Could it be that Angie was slandered by Madeline too?”

“The moment tragedy befell Angie, Madeline was reinstated as Mrs. Quincy. I won’t believe that there’s nothing fishy going on behind the scenes.”

“That’s right. Angie was a demure and innocent girl in the past. How can she be painted in such a different light all of a sudden?”

“If what you said is true, the world is such a terrible place.”

Madeline couldn’t help but smile upon reading those comments. People were only interested in juicy gossip, and they would not care about the validity or authenticity of the news they were seeing on the internet. As long as such negative news could fulfill their fantasies or delusions, they would happily attack others as a coping method to vent their real-life frustrations or disappointments.

Madeline hardly had any interest in such trivial comments, but when she saw Annalise slowly falling into her trap, she would be lying to say that she didn’t feel the least bit happy.

“How do those from the Law family view this matter?”

“They just learned of these slanderous rumors, and they are very angry. They will take action soon.”

“Then we should disclose to the world Ms. Law’s identity before that.”

Ms. Law was a one-in-a-million choice for Madeline, so naturally, she was someone with high prestige. To top it off, her character was impeccable, and she was a very low-key person. All she cared about was her academic research. She rarely showed herself in any socialite circles.

This was also why Annalise who was a socialite of a conglomerate family didn’t know Nadine’s existence.

“Ms. Madeline, I heard that Ms. Law is an incredibly smart person. If she found out that we are using her to get at Annalise, would she be angry?”

“So what if she is angry? A scientist needs to put food on the table too, you know. Ms. Law was desperate for funds lately, and we are able to meet her needs handsomely. Instead of stomping toward us in fury, she will be more than happy to receive our financial assistance.”

Nadine was severely lacking in funds for her project, and the Law family had made it clear that they would only provide monetary assistance if Nadine agreed to an arranged marriage. Nadine was a very hard-headed person, and she immediately made up her mind to earn those funds by herself.

That was when Madeline appeared to provide her with that opportunity.

She had a feeling that someone as smart as Nadine would not push away such a chance.

Very soon, Nadine’s identity was revealed on the internet. She had a flawless background life story, and it was a huge splash in the gossip scene on the internet.

“What beauty! She must be an angel from the heavens!”

“I can’t believe how pretty she is. She graduated from Hertlusian University at the age of seventeen, and she completed her doctorate at twenty-two…”

“Oh, my god! Law is her family name. Could it be the same Law family from the ancient past? Her ancestors were founding fathers of this country.”

“Oh, my lord! The vaccine to curb the flu last year was developed by her!”

“I can’t believe this! She has donated all of the earnings she has gained through her patents.”

“Her photography works in the mountains have led to the overall economic development in the poverty- stricken areas.”

“She has written a book about an extremely poor village. Rumors say that because of that book, those who couldn’t even put food on the table in the past are able to drive a respectable car nowadays.”

“She adopted two orphans in that village when she was twenty.”

“How can such a girl in need of any sugar daddies? She can be my sugar daddy!”

“Besides her heritage, how can Annalise even compare to Nadine?”

“Look guys, it’s breaking news. It turns out that those ghostwriters who wrote hateful comments were people hired by Annalise.”

“This is breaking news! We should not give attention to those b*tches. We need to carefully protect a talented woman like her!”

“Annalise has met her competition now. She is the one who wants to control everything behind the scenes, right? The Charity Association has always been fair, so she manipulated public opinions by hiring ghostwriters. She’s really too sinister and despicable.”

“Didn’t Annalise know that her actions could ruin an innocent girl’s life? The internet is a scary place and cyberbullying is prevalent here.”

“That’s right, I saw many people on the internet try to expose Ms. Law because of that.”

“Annalise finally reveals her true colors. She thinks that she can do anything as long as she has money. She is disgusting!”

“Annalise deserves to die!”

The internet had always been a fickle place. In just half an hour, the people who were cursing Nadine were already praising her. Annalise who was viewed as a shining light in society had been degraded to the slums.

As for the Law family, they naturally wouldn’t allow the world to slander and hurt their precious daughter. Soon, Rowan’s projects around the country that were still in the budding phase were halted.

Madeline couldn’t wait to see that pair of siblings stomping their feet in utter frustration.

“Sir, Mrs. Quincy is really a capable person. In just half an hour, she is able to gain control of public opinion.” When Wayne learned that Madeline’s Charity Association was getting attacked in the afternoon, he wanted to do something to help Madeline to make a turnaround.

However, Noah stopped him. He simply advised Wayne to just watch and not ruin things because Madeline would come up with a strategy to counter the situation.

Wayne was fortunate that Noah had stopped him, or else he might really become a burden instead of helping Madeline.

It turned out that Mr. Quincy was the one who knew Mrs. Quincy the most.

When Noah made sure that things had toned down, he shut down his laptop with a satisfied smile. Then, his face darkened as he ordered Wayne, “We are going to Phoenix International now.”

“Sir, I’ll ask someone to go get Suzette from the restaurant. You don’t need to dirty your hands this time.”

Ever since Bruno revealed that Suzette was the one who wanted to bring harm to Madeline, Wayne had sent his men to locate her. However, it seemed that there was someone backing her up, as they had to put in a lot of effort before securing her phone number.

Then, Suzette proposed a meetup at the Rotating Restaurant in Phoenix International. She claimed that she was going to tell him who had betrayed the Quincy family five years ago. This was obviously a trap, yet Mr. Quincy had agreed to meet her.
