Michelle didn't budge, and she refused to take the phone.
Madelyn asked, "Why aren't you taking the call? Dad will be heartbroken if he knows about this."
A smirk appeared on Michelle's face. "Oh, he won't feel heartbroken. He has you, his favorite daughter, after all! Better hang up if you don't want to hurt his feelings."
Madelyn couldn't find a comeback. Hanging up was not an option.
While holding the phone, she said, "Michelle, I'll put him on speaker."
Kyle's voice came through clearly. "Hi, Michelle."
The difference in the level of affection was evident. He sounded gentle when he spoke to Madelyn, but the opposite when he spoke to Michelle.
Michelle smirked. Kyle had dropped his act many years ago.
"Hey, Dad. Let me know if there's anything. I'm listening."
"Michelle, as Madelyn's older sister, you need to take good care of her in the Capitol!"
"Sure. I don't mind taking care of Madelyn, but aren't you worried? I've never been good at taking care of others. Don't blame me if anything happens to your precious daughter!"
"Michelle, how dare you?"
"Well, you and Madelyn shouldn't have reached out to me in the first place! Let's keep the peace. If anyone dares to make a move against me, I'll hit back!"
Kyle was fuming. "Michelle, what's with that attitude of yours? How could you speak to your father in that tone? Do you have no manners?"
Madelyn was always glad to watch them quarrel. She inserted herself into the conversation. "Michelle, why do you always drive Dad angry? That's so immature of you."
Michelle argued, "Well, Dad, I have no manners because you didn't raise me!"
Kyle nearly choked on anger. "How could you? Michelle, Madelyn will join Landon Group very soon!"

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
And now we're onto another sets of characters that weren't included from the beginning....
Nathan and Michelle???...
Thought Celine got pregnant before Hailey…..how come Celine is 3 months and Hailey 7?...
if there is already a surveillance video as evidence for the poisoning of Hailey, why go all the trouble of pretending? Celine is also pregnant right? What is happening to them, and what about Adam's headaches ......
Why is this writer like this! Seems it’s going to be a never ending story!!! Rebecca or Melody, why is she here again!!! Don’t these female characters move on!!! Goshhhhh...
A man with a team of invisible bodyguards that only appear on orders and disappear in time of troubles. Hmm😆🤏...
When will Hailey show that she is Adam's cousin and be ruthless? Joanne needs to be put in her place and realize Jonah does not want her. Ewan is just as bad as she is. Hailey needs to get help from Celine or Adam if she doesn't want Jonah to find out what's happening....
If the focus has to go on other characters in the book, at least make it more interesting! They were separated for three years, and still having love rivals! Especially one from the past!!! Why can’t Ewan and Joanne move in together and move on!!...
Imagine the long read if they decide to switch back to Adam and Celine. Not reading this with the same enthusiasm from the beginning....
How does anyone in their senses meet up with someone who almost hurt them and their unborn child. This author is dumb and needs to wrap this crap up. All of a sudden Hailey and kala are playing Celine and Carly's role as another character. Nonsense....
