Roxanne found something off about Madilyn's claim of making a trip back to Xandenia to visit her ancestors' graves.
Mdm. Xander isn't from Xandenia in the first place, merely having gone there to work when she was young. What ancestors could the Xander family have there? With that said, Madilyn couldn't possibly be visiting her biological father's ancestors' graves. After all, that piece-of-trash father of hers doesn't regard her as a daughter even now.
Following that line of thought, she was convinced that her best friend was lying to her and had some other reason for going to Xandenia.
That aside, it must have something to do with that sc*mbag father of hers.
When Lucian returned home, he swiftly informed his wife about the situation.
He told her that Cayden reported about Jonathan bringing along a great number of bodyguards when he accompanied Madilyn to Xandenia.
At once, the couple started worrying. Is he planning to have a fight with someone that he brought so many bodyguards along?
Thus, Roxanne quickly phoned her best friend.
As soon as the call went through, she asked urgently, “Are you okay, Madilyn? Did something serious happen? Don't hide it and keep me in the dark. Tell me, quick!”
Realizing that she would not be able to keep the truth from Roxanne, Madilyn told her everything.
As Roxanne listened, fury lined her features, and she gritted her teeth hard.
“Stay calm, Roxanne. You must keep yourself in a good mood now that you're pregnant. We're all fine and are on our way back. However, we're not planning to take a flight this time. Jonathan said he'd bring us around for some fun while making the return trip.”
Madilyn sounded relaxed, putting Roxanne at ease.
All that notwithstanding, she had a new understanding of her best friend's piece of trash of a father, Norton, and his contemptible family.
Good Lord! Forcibly taking Mdm. Xander away is already a crime. On top of that, they even had delusions of using Madilyn as a pawn for a political marriage! How ridiculous!
