All Chapters of The Love Triangle: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

Aria was just sobbing, not saying a word for a long time.Milton got it right away that Aria had definitely screwed up and instantly lost some of his steam.With Aria unable to get her story straight, Madeline stepped in, albeit reluctantly, to clear things up."Your son chucked a Lego model from the second floor last night, and it hit Mr. Gibson. The property management called me in this morning to figure out what to do, but Aria gave me an attitude and was totally uncooperative. She even had the nerve to demand I compensate her. I really think people who don't care about public decency need to improve themselves."Madeline squirmed, trying to shake off the heavy hand on her waist.Trevon seemed clueless, having placed his hand there, giving her awkward rubs, which was driving her nuts.She was dying to shoot Trevon a look that would get him to back off, but she knew it was not the time.Trevon did not take the hint, instead giving Madeline a woeful puppy-dog look. "My back's k

That line was a carbon copy of 'A little drink's fine, just drive slower afterward'.Both were equally dismissive of the value of life.Madeline finally understood why Aria and her son shrugged off the danger of tossing stuff from skyscrapers like it was nothing.It was their family's way.Sarah's expression darkened.She pieced it together. Aria was aiming for Madeline, using that moment to put her on the spot.Of all times to stir up trouble, she had to pick the moment Sarah was toasting Madeline. It was as if she was the one helping Aria stir up trouble.Sarah had no clue what Madeline was like, but she was crossing her fingers she was not the vindictive type.Otherwise, what would happen to her husband's prospects at the Gibson Group?Sarah was kicking herself for toasting to Madeline.Madeline shot Trevon a withering look.If he had not been so set on the dinner, she would not have been in that mess.All eyes were on Madeline, waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

Milton left as quickly as he had appeared, not leaving Madeline any room to reject the gift.Aria was fuming in the car. "I went through so much trouble to get that makeup from France. It's a one-of-a-kind, limited edition! How could you just give it to Madeline?"It was not the makeup itself that was a big deal. It was the packaging. Crafted into a unique angel shape with pink crystals, it was the only set of its kind in the world.Aria had not even had the chance to brag about it to her friends.Milton's expression turned stern. If that set could curry favor with the Gibson Group, he would give away ten, a hundred sets without a second thought."Come on. No tears now. Remember that diamond ring you liked? We'll go pick it up soon."There it was, a dazzling 3-carat pear-shaped ring. It was a beauty, and a rare one at that.Aria had been eyeing it forever, but Milton had always played it cool, never giving in. When he finally caved, Aria's tears of frustration turned into tears

The next morning, Madeline was jolted awake by a phone call, still half-lost in her dreams."Hello, Mrs. Gibson. Your order has arrived."Madeline blinked in surprise. She had not ordered anything lately.Who delivered packages at the crack of dawn?With a frown, Madeline opened the door and was greeted by a small mountain of boxes, each one had a label that read 'For Madeline'.Trevon sauntered up, leaning against the doorframe with a casual air. "Check them out," he said coolly.Madeline eyed him, puzzled. "You got these for me?"Trevon just gave a noncommittal shrug, as if to say 'maybe'.Still confused, Madeline grabbed a pair of scissors and went to work on the boxes.The first one revealed a pink laptop, complete with a matching mouse.The second held a pink long dress, adorned with delicate flowers, reminiscent of the trendy styles from Tracy's boutique.One by one, Madeline tore through the boxes.Everything was pink.Skincare, clothes, household items—it was like

The 'files' turned out to be pretty scant. It was just an old photo of her brother and some investigation reports from the area, bus, and train stations on the day he disappeared.Asher sighed heavily. "I've kept an eye out for any similar missing persons cases around here over the years, but no luck."For years, there was nothing but silence. Either the kid was gone for good, or he was whisked off to who knew where.Back in the day, the police did not have the technology or the know-how, so anything could have happened.Deep down, Asher had a hunch the kid was still out there.A three-year-old boy who was easy to raise and with no past to remember was just the kind of kid that buyers would line up for.The problem was that finding him was like looking for a needle in a haystack.However, Madeline was determined to search for him no matter what."Asher, I need a copy of these files."Asher looked like he wanted to say something, maybe talk her out of it. "Madeline, it's been e
