Love’ss 11
At breakfast, Andrew worked through his food while Rowan reported work-related matters. At the same time, Madelyn glared at Rowan unhappily for not offering. Andrew a moment of peace at breakfast time. She bit hard into the pancake and immediately groaned in pain. That hurt!
Rowan happened to be reporting the most crucial details to Andrew, and he fumed when-Madelyn interrupted his reporting. He thought, "Ugh, it's that devil again!"
Andrew looked at Madelyn and saw her pressing a hand against her mouth in pain. He placed the document on the table and approached her. Lifting her up from her seat, he asked, "What's wrong? Let me tak "I bit my tongue. It hurts."
It was all Rowan's fault for discussing work at breakfast. She bit too hard on her. tongue until it started
bleeding. She cast a disgruntled look at Andrew, who said to Rowan, "Rowan, please head to the office first."
"But Mr. Miller, these documents are...
"I'll be in the office this morning!" After that, Andrew shifted all his attention to Madelyn.
Meanwhile, Rowan stared at Madelyn and doubted that Andrew could make it to the office this morning.
Andrew, when spotting the blood in her mouth, frowned. "Look, you're bleeding. What's the rush? No one is eyeing your food.
"What do I do?" she asked.
The wound really hurt. She looked at him tearfully, and he blew on her mouth with much sympathy. "Feeling better?"
"It still hurts." His crisp, refreshing scent eased the pain, yet she refused to such a good opportunity to flirt with him.

He suggested, "How about I send you to the hospital?"
Speechless, she thought, "I don't want the hospital staff to think of me as a little bitch for asking to go to the hospital over a bitten tongue."
She thought about it. Then, she shook her head and dismissed the idea, "I'm not going."
David showed up with a first aid kid and handed the smiling Andrew a bottle of ointment. The ointment gave a cool sensation, which helped to soothe the pain. "Darling, are you going to the office later?" She shot a worried look at his left chest.
Just now, she noticed the scabs growing on his scar when she dressed his wound, but she remained concerned about his injury. After all, he nearly died yesterday from the medicine that had been tampered with.
He replied, "I need to work on some important documents. I'll be back by noon."
"I want to go with you," she blurted out without thinking.
Andrew was a workaholic. Once he stepped out of the house, he might not make it back at noon as promised.
He seemed surprised when she offered to go to work with him. Staring at her in disbelief, he exclaimed, "Are you going with me?"This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
"Yeah. Anything wrong?" Then, she turned to David. "Please get me the first aid box left behind by Dr. Patel. It's upstairs."
"Sure, Mrs. Miller." In David's opinion, Andrew and Madelyn appeared rather loving, which was a stark contrast to how they were portrayed in the rumors about their relationship problems. He couldn't help but t Andrew looked deep into Madelyn's eyes. "You don't have to. Ivan will be at my office,
She furrowed her brows. "Are you saying I can't be around if Ivan is already there?" "Of course not!" Emotions grew in Andrew's eyes when he observed her concern for him. His heart melted into a puddle. Soon, David brought the first aid kid for Madelyn. She ran a thorough check on Andrew's wound before going upstairs for a change of outfit.
Andrew grinned at her when she reemerged with a haute couture attire that he had specially designed for her.
In the past, Madelyn would never touch anything that he gifted her. He could only hope it was true that she had changed because she no longer allowed Elena to drive a wedge between them. The thought of the Garcias enraged him,
"Darling, you have great taste. I love this fit Madelyn ran up to Andrew and twirled

happily. No doubt, the attire he designed sulted her the best.
He took her hand and replied, "I'm glad you like it."
'I do! Of course, I do! I like everything from you." Seeing Madelyn's elation, he nearly forgot that he might be in a dream. She might be lying to him, and he could be stepping into her trap. Andrew and Madelyn showed up at Miller Group together. In her past life, the entire Klago City was aware of their unhappy marriage and that she had never bothered to visit Miller Group. Her sudden presence caused the employees to stare at each other in confusion.
The ladies at Miller Group cast passionate glances at Andrew. Madelyn teetered along while holding his arm to assert dominance over them.
"Is Dr. Patel here?" Madelyn asked Andrew.
He nodded.
She continued, "Get Dr. Patel to check on your wound before you go for the meeting."
"Will do." His reply attracted looks of disbelief from the onlookers as they had never seen this tender side of him.
When Ivan was carefully checking on the medication for Andrew's wound, Madelyn stayed by his side throughout the process.
Andrew might trust Madelyn, but the people around him seemed wary of her.
"Your wound isn't recovering that well. Look out for infections," advised Ivan after the check-up.
Andrew nodded at him while Madelyn took mental note of the advice.
After Ivan left, Rowan departed for the meeting room to make the necessary arrangements. At that moment, a secretary entered Adrew's office with a cup of coffee. Madelyn recognized the secretary as Elizabeth Clark, who had served Andrew for three years.
From the moment Elizabeth stepped into her room, she did not once peel her eyes off Andrew. "Mr. Miller, here's your coffee."
She politely served Andrew the cup of coffee. When she bent over, her cleavage was on full display. Andrew could have a full view of her chest if he just looked up.
Madelyn was dumbstruck by Elizabeth's brazenness. She thought, "Is she dismissing my presence?"
Before she could protest, Elizabeth purred out the words, "Mr. Miller, according to Mr. Hart, the divorce papers are ready to be signed. When should I deliver them to Ms. Garcia?"
Almost immediately, Madelyn snapped toward Andrew, who froze in the middle of signing a document. The air in the office was immediately filled with tension.
When their eyes met, Andrew couldn't help but think that he was dead meat.
Madelyn, panting heavily, thought, "Wow, this is really something! Did I just run into a secretary seducing my husband, who's getting ready to serve me divorce papers? Andrew Miller, you're a jerk!" In Andrew's silence, Elizabeth turned her head in the same direction and exclaimed when she discovered Madelyn in the room, "Oh! Mrs. Miller, you're here at the right time! Mr. Hart will arrive soon." Madelyn's face scrunched up, and she shot Andrew an accusatory look. Massaging his forehead, he growled, "Elizabeth Clark!"
"Yes, Mr. Miller. I'll immediately call Mr. Hart to check his whereabouts." Elizabeth sounded casual and delighted as if she had been waiting for ages for Andrew to divorce.
He fixed an icy stare on Elizabeth, causing the hair on the back of her neck to stand. He announced, "You're fired. Go to the HR department now."
"Mr. Miller? How could you-"
"Get lost!"
Her feet nearly gave out under his piercing and murderous gaze. She scrambled out of his office with an ashen face.
Why did Andrew fire her? Did he seriously do that for a woman he was about to divorce?
Madelyn turned her face away and ignored Andrew in his office. He took a seat behind her and gave her a backhug. She struggled to free herself, but he forcefully
turned her around to face him. Before she knew it, he started kissing her softly.
"Let go of me!" Still irritated, she sounded pitiful and wronged.
He explained, "I made Mr. Hart draft the divorce papers because you were thinking of leaving me. I totally forgot about them later. Please don't be mad at me, okay?" Despite being touched by his words of comfort, she still felt hurt by the scene just now. She rubbed her face against his neck. "But that secretary was seducing you. just now." She couldn't believe that certain women at work had been coveting her husband, and she realized she must have been blind in her past life to give up her popular husband
