Betrayed by the Father Reborn in His Rival's Arms novel Chapter 64

Madeline genuinely didn't want to take Leo to school.

She had things to do at the company tomorrow as well.

The overseas technical team was already on track, and after running simulated operations, Madeline was confident there were no issues. The domestic team was still waiting for her to conduct training.

But realizing she needed to wrap up the divorce without further delay, she agreed.

She planned to use dropping off Leo as a chance to finalize the divorce with Lucius, retrieve the signed agreement, and hand it over to her lawyer to handle the rest.

Since she had to take Leo to school, Madeline woke up bright and early.

She ate a quick breakfast and drove out of her neighborhood.

As her car entered the familiar villa district, Madeline felt a momentary daze.

She had lived here for five years, and though she had only been gone for two months, it felt like half a lifetime had passed.

In reality, not a single blade of grass had changed.

Yet Madeline had already begun to feel like a stranger to this place.

Mrs. Miller was overjoyed to see her and hurried out to greet her.

"Ma'am, you're back!"

Madeline paused at the title. She knew Mrs. Miller still hoped she wouldn't go through with the divorce and would reconcile with Lucius. Mrs. Miller was a loyal employee of the Whitman family, but hope was all it was. The housekeeper likely knew deep down that Madeline wasn't looking back.

Madeline asked, "Where's Leo?"

It was about time for him to be eating breakfast. Madeline didn't want to go inside and accidentally intrude on their picture-perfect family of three, which would only make things awkward. She just asked Mrs. Miller to go check when Leo would be coming out.

Mrs. Miller asked, "Have you had breakfast, Ma'am? We have your favorite oatmeal and pastries. How about—"
