In the end, his plan had been foiled, and knowing Madeline's vicious tongue, how could she let him go?
The arrogant Augustus wouldn't accept any taunts, unless this person didn't want to live anymore.
Madeline applauded Augustus' bravado. He was still so arrogant even though he was the one at fault. Can't he just give her the chance to speak?
"Mr. Astor, I think you misunderstood what I meant. I purposely came up here because I just wanted to tell you that I'm really happy to see that you're fine. Also, thank you for helping me again just now."
There was silence in the room. Augustus had assumed that she would question him about why he had lied to her… and then they would have a huge fight.
However, what he was worried about did not happen. Instead, he received such warm words.
