Chapter 4 Triangle Love
amiably, “Madeline, are you having fun today? Just make yourself at home.”
After that, she introduced Beatrice to Madeline, “This is Beatrice. Lawson. She works at Desmond’s company. I have some matters to discuss with her.”
Autumn introduced Beatrice as one of Desmond’s employees. Everyone present knew she was his wife, though.
Clearly, Autumn did it on purpose.
On the one hand, it showed that she didn’t approve of Beatrice. On the other hand, she was reassuring Madeline that Beatrice wouldn’t come in the way even if she stole Desmond from her.
Madeline lifted her head proudly. “So, she’s just an employee.”

Sadly, he maintained indifferent all along, not even bothering to defend her.

Confidently, Madeline neatly rearranged the pieces on the
board. “Ms. Lawson, which piece do you choose, the black one or the white one?”
Beatrice grabbed the black pieces. “The black ones, please. It’s my color.”
Desmond watched her coldly.
With gritted teeth, Madeline hurriedly made the first move.
After a few moves, Autumn noticed that Madeline was playing with strategy, while Beatrice moved her pieces randomly.
Autumn had always favored Madeline.
Without getting the full picture of the game, she shot Desmond a meaningful glance, as if telling him, “See? This is what a decent rich lady should be like.”
But Desmond just turned a blind eye to it.
Minutes went by, and they were in the heat of the game.
