All Chapters of She Was The Joke, Now She’s The Queen: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Hadley remained silent.His dark eyes narrowed as he gazed at her. Her gown was pink color. She wore a matching shawl over her shoulders because it was chilly. It accentuated her contours, giving her form a delicate, enigmatic appearance.She had her hair pulled back into a ponytail. Her fair, graceful neck was decked with a diamond necklace. The light made it shine. Her features had always been intriguing and beautiful.For a moment, they exchanged glances. Hadley averted her gaze. "You can come here, but I can't?" she asked. Her eyes were uncaring, devoid of any affection."You are my ex-wife, and this is my girlfriend’s house,” He stated, "I don't want your presence to have an impact on us.” His grin was the darkest it could be.Hadley approached with poise. She smiled mockingly at him. "We're already divorced, Andrew. I have nothing to do with whoever your girlfriend is. Your world and mine are no longer connected. You're not deserving of participating in it. Steer clear of me i

"You killed Mom, Hadley!” Mallory’s haughty voice yelled, "Come to Drew’s villa right away."When Hadley learned that Sheila was in danger, she jolted awake.Her voice was icy as she sat up. "What did you say?""Hmph! Hadley, quit acting so fake. You bitch. In addition to attempting to steal Mom's shares, you also caused her to go into a coma. She won't wake up after taking your medication. The share transfer document is now absent. Come on over here immediately," Mallory commanded.Hadley scowled. Why had this occurred after she had already turned down Sheila’s offer?The events of that day were only known to four people and Sheila’s shares had long been desired by Mallory. Hadley responded, "I'm coming right now.”After hanging up, she contacted Chuck. "Ms. Fern," Chuck said."Chuck, take some people to Sheila Shaw’s Villa and investigate the situation with her shares. Go fast. Pay special attention to the stock market. Control the situation right now if their shares rise by fifte

The sound of Sheila’s voice startled everyone, especially Sage. She was scared when she saw Sheila standing at the stairs, wondering how she had woken up so fast.Mallory was taken aback as well. ‘She can't possibly wake up,’ she thought. ‘What made her to awaken so quickly?’Andrew’s dejected expression softened when he saw that his grandmother was unharmed. "Grandma, you're alright.""Hmph! How could I have died? You bastards would have eaten Hadley if something had happened to me."Sheila gave him a derisive glance."Could it be that today's events really have nothing to do with her?" Andrew asked himself as he stopped walking and turned to face Hadley.The hallway took on an odd ambiance.Andrew was uncomfortable and experienced a tightening in his chest.Sheila carefully made her way down the stairs with the help of her maids.When Laura recalled that Sheila had just reprimanded her, her heart became even more uneasy. Feeling insulted, she pouted and clung to Andrew’s arm, saying,

Angus felt thankful as he glanced at Laura. His daughter might not have lived if it weren't for them. "Ms. Beck, you have my sincere gratitude,” Angus declared, "I will sign a contract with you and refuse to cooperate with Golden Estate because you saved my daughter's life."His daughter meant everything to him, and he was constantly grateful.Laura was taken aback. She suppressed a hint of nervousness and lowered her gaze. She wasn't prepared for everything to go so well.Her ability to assist Andrew in winning the Lee Group's contract also caught Andrew off guard. "Mr. Lee, thank you! You won't be disappointed by our business,” Andrew remarked, seemingly in a pleasant mood, "I've wanted to work with your company for a long time.""By the way, Ms. Beck, your sister has evidence," Angus said, considering the contract he signed with the Shaw family to be a repayment of the favor. “Would you kindly ask her to forward it to me? I want to use that evidence to force that man to divorce my

"Don't worry, the contract's signed. Even without evidence, Mr. Lee won't say anything. Just keep Hadley away from him, and it'll be fine," Jude reassured Laura.Laura nodded and felt less nervous. She would find an excuse to reject Angus tomorrow and deal with it later if she couldn't see Hadley.---Hadley has become a steak lover lately.She asked Edwina to prepare some as soon as she arrived home and Ercell was playing games close by.Before long, Edwina brought a salad and meat stew. Hadley grinned after taking a bite. "It's delicious, Ed. You're getting better at this."Edwina smiled. "What do you want to eat tomorrow, boss?"Hadley paused to reflect. "Let's have fish.""Okay! I'll make it for you."Edwina went to wash fruit later."Has Jemima’s family had the surgery?" Hadley questioned Ercell.Ercell gave a headshake. "Not yet, it's the day after tomorrow.""Keep an eye on it. Jemima’s still useful," Hadley said.Ercell comprehended. It was always fun to see the drama."Laura
