Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 397

With that, Madison just shook her head and left the room. Kyle sat there, listening to the sound of the door closing, then slumped hard into his chair. He stared in the direction his sisters had gone, his face ghost-pale, and glanced down at his own hands. Every word Madison and Wiona had thrown at him felt like a whip, cutting into wounds that hadn’t even started to heal. But those words were a wake-up call. The more they stung, the clearer things became. Deep down, he knew every single thing they said was right.

“Madison, don’t worry about it. Get some sleep.” Wiona and Conrad made sure Madison got back to her mentor’s place safely. The house was this gorgeous old-style mansion called Orchid Court, with a grand gate that looked like something out of a movie.

They waved goodbye, but before Madison could even set foot inside, someone stopped her. “Madison, you again? Why are you always coming back so late? You’re always breaking curfew. You are already warned. If you do this again, you’ll have to kneel at the main gate for two hours. Only when you know you were wrong can you get up. So, kneel!”

Wiona’s car window was still open, and as soon as she heard that, she pushed the door open and got out fast. Madison tried to explain. “I already told Giana I’d be late today. If you don’t believe me, ask her.”

But the other apprentice wouldn’t let it go. “Asked for leave? Funny, we never heard about it. Our mentor didn’t say a word. You’re late, so you’re getting punished. What, the big rich girl can’t handle it? You gave up your cushy life to come here and fight for a spot, so you’d better follow the rules. Go on, kneel. Or do you think your family name makes you special? Well, your mentor barely counts among the elders. Even if he spoils you, you still have to follow the rules.”

Then, without warning, the apprentice shoved Madison, hard. Wiona rushed forward and caught her. “Careful!” The push sent them both stumbling back. If Conrad hadn’t hurried over and caught Wiona, the two of them would’ve ended up on the ground.

“Wiona, are you alright?” Madison turned quickly, hugging her sister and looking her up and down, her eyes red with worry. Wiona shook her head. “I’m fine. Madison, do they always treat you like this? Come with me. You shouldn’t have to stay here.”

Wiona’s concern was all for Madison. Madison shook her head. “My mentor is the fifth brother in the Simpson family. He avoids their drama, so people look down on him, but when it comes to me, he doesn’t back down. You don’t have to worry. But just now, they saw you arriving and still pushed me. I’m not letting them off that easy.”

She turned on the two apprentices at the gate, eyes blazing. “You have no idea what you just started.” Madison rolled up her sleeves, walked straight over, and slapped both of them across the face. “I’ve put up with your nonsense before, but if my sister had gotten hurt today, it wouldn’t just be two slaps. Get out of my way!”
