"Jan…" A hoarse voice tinged with guilt echoed in the hallway.
Madison's eyes were red. Her expression was a complicated mix of emotions as she stared at Janet in the private room.
Janet was the heiress of the Burke family and had been Madison's closest childhood friend. But in high school, the two had fallen out completely, thanks to Kaitlyn's manipulations.
Madison couldn't hold back her tears when she recalled what had happened in her past life. After Sam died, Janet realized Madison was in trouble and tried to rescue her, only to have her legs broken by Kaitlyn.
The argument in the room continued.
Kaitlyn glared at Janet, her face red with embarrassment. "Ms. Burke, what's your problem? Are you saying I'm two-faced and that my friendship with Maddie is fake?"
"Isn't it the truth, though?" Janet was just about to say that same line when a clear, cold voice beat her to it.
The private room door swung open. Madison strode in with her head held high and her shoulders squared.
Wearing an off-white V-neck suit, she looked every bit a woman of authority, her presence impossible to ignore. Her features were like finely sculpted porcelain, flawless and breathtakingly beautiful.
Taken aback, Janet stared at her, and the others were equally stunned.
Johnny, in particular, could hardly shift his lustful gaze away.
He had always known Madison was beautiful and had wanted to sleep with her, but every time he tried, Sam would get in the way.
Kaitlyn immediately recognized Madison in her stunning outfit as well, her eyes betraying the jealousy she tried to hide.
As if she suddenly realized something, she whipped her head around to look at Johnny. Her face twisted with anger.
Damn it! She knew it. Once Johnny saw Madison like this, he was bound to be captivated.
Right then, someone finally asked Madison with keen interest after recovering from their shock, "Who are you?"
Madison raised an eyebrow. "What's this? Weren't you guys just going on about me a moment ago? Now you're going to act like you don't know me?"
"You're Madison?" Everyone stared, eyes wide with astonishment, then turned to Johnny as if to confirm whether or not that was true.
Seeing everyone staring at him with envy, Johnny felt rather proud. With a proud lift of his chin, he said, "That's right. She's Madison, my fiancee. Maddie, come sit next to me."
