Chapter 235
Madison’s gaze was filled with anger and disbelief. She wondered if this could be the same Cameron she knew, who had lived off her for five years like a useless man.
She felt he must have won Laura’s favor and started thinking too highly of himself, assuming he was above everyone else. Yes, she was certain that had to be it.
She couldn’t believe that Cameron, someone she considered a loser, had the audacity to treat her this way. The humiliation, combined with her rage, sent her into a frenzy.
Her eyes reddened as she stood up and screamed at Cameron, “Remember this–a loser will always be a loser! Even if you’re lucky enough to be favored by Ms. Jones and rise above your station, you can’t change the fact that you’re a loser.”
“Are you done?” Cameron looked at Madison with a cold gaze. Her words were nothing more than
noise to him. They didn’t stir any emotion.
“What, did I strike a nerve? And now you’re embarrassed?” Madison’s lips curled into a spiteful smile. “So, the loser who never cared about his dignity during those five years of marriage is starting to show that he cares now? I’ll tell you, someone like you only deserves people like Dakota.”
Suddenly, Cameron’s expression darkened, and he slapped her again. Madison staggered backward. Her head hit the wall with a thud, causing a sharp pain.
She finally snapped. She grabbed a fruit knife from the kitchen and stabbed fiercely toward Cameron’s chest. “I’ll kill you and that bitch!”
Madison’s eyes were bloodshot. She had never been so humiliated before and was determined to kill Cameron and Dakota. Cameron saw the knife aimed at his chest and felt a surge of murderous intent. He snatched the knife from Madison’s hand. To her disbelief, he stabbed it toward her forehead.
Madison’s face turned pale in terror.
“No, Cameron!” Dakota cried out. She didn’t want Cameron to commit a crime.
Cameron’s eyes flickered slightly. He threw the knife. It whizzed past Madison’s cheek and buried itself deep into the wall behind her. A thin cut appeared on Madison’s cheek, and blood seeped out.
Madison trembled as she slid down the wall to the floor. Her legs gave way. For a moment, she felt
death brush past her.
Dakota’s eyes also shook violently. However, she was relieved that Cameron didn’t kill Madison. She didn’t want him to break the law for her sake.
With that, he walked over to the bed. He picked up Dakota under her trembling gaze and walked out. As he passed Madison, his expression was cold and indifferent.
Madison shivered and turned to look at Cameron. She watched his retreating figure disappear from her sight. The killing intent he had shown made her shiver with fear. And in that moment, she finally
realized she had
been wrong

these years,
