Back in Time to Fall for Him novel Chapter 11

Madison's eyes went cold as anger flickered in her gaze.

"You're saying Sam wants to take over Quinn Group?" she asked, her voice cool and cutting.

There was a flash of derision in her gaze.

Johnny, on the other end of the line, didn't catch the change in her tone at all. He assumed she was buying it, and his voice softened.

"Maddie, don't worry. You've got me now. Once we get married, he can't control you anymore. You can take the company back, and I'll run it for you. With me in your corner, he'll never push you around again."

Madison clenched her fists, shutting her eyes in pain.

What a joke. The man who had humiliated her and driven her to a miserable end in her last life was going on about justice and promising to protect her.

And the "villain" he claimed was scheming to take Quinn Group, the big fool Sam, had walked right into a trap and died to save her in that life.

No, she was the fool. How else had she let Johnny and Kaitlyn con her and keep Sam at arm's length?

When Madison opened her eyes again, her gaze turned to ice. Sooner or later, she'd have those two on their knees, begging her and Sam for forgiveness!

But the time hadn't come yet.

She steadied herself, her expression cold. She let a hesitant note creep into her voice as she said, "But after my parents passed, Sam's been the one running Quinn Group. I don't think anyone's better suited to handle the company."

Johnny couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Useless."

Kaitlyn took the phone from him. "Maddie, it's me, Kate. I'm sorry about yesterday. I shouldn't have shown up with a crowd and upset you. We're best friends.

"I can't just stand by and watch you get played by Sam, that two-faced snake. You're not his pet. He doesn't get to control you or tell you not to see Johnny.

"He says Johnny only got close to you to steal Quinn Group and your family's inheritance? Sounds like he's the guilty one! Don't be afraid. Johnny and I are at Quinn Group right now, and we'll help you take the company back."

Madison frowned. Then, it came back to her. In her last life, Kaitlyn messed around, didn't graduate, and couldn't find a job.

Kaitlyn broke down in front of Madison, saying she couldn't go on. Madison couldn't stand it and brought Kaitlyn on at Quinn Group.

Later, when Madison started dating Johnny, he asked to join Quinn Group too, saying he wanted to be closer to her. With Kaitlyn talking her into it, Madison agreed.

She never expected her kindness and goodwill to become the leverage they used against her.
