Chapter 4

I was shocked after hearing Jonathan’s words. I couldn't keep letting him do whatever he wanted.

“What bad luck? What a relic, Jonathan? That was the last thing my grandmother left me. What right do you have to say that? Do you think I don't understand what you're saying, huh? Don't touch my grandma's jade pendant, Jonathan.”

I was so angry that my face turned red. I yelled at the top of my lungs. My parents were seldom with me when they were doing business. Only my grandma bought me a gift. She gave me so much love. I missed her every day after she left.

No one understood my longing for her better than Jonathan. I really didn't expect that he thought so in his heart.

I thought Jonathan would explain about his words before, but he didn't explain at all. Jonathan just scolded me for yelling at him because of the broken jade pendant.

“Isn't it just a broken jade pendant, Madeleine? Why are you yelling at me like that? Don't come back. Who's going to spoil you now?”

I heard them calling for a broom to sweep the pieces of the jade pendant into the garbage and throw it away.

I couldn't stay calm any longer at this moment. I then rushed out of the hotel in my thin clothes. I really hoped to take a taxi to get back.

Unfortunately, it was raining heavily outside. I could not get a taxi.  My cell phone also was out of battery. I knew I had to walk back even though I was gritting my teeth.

After the miscarriage, my body was weak. I soon fainted on the road because of the cold from the rain. When I woke up again, I was in the hospital again. My parents were around me at this moment. They were crying.

My mother, Victoria Willowbrook looked at me and said, “My daughter, are you awake? Oh God, my poor daughter is finally awake. You scared your mom to death, Madeleine. I told you that Jonathan was not a good guy. But you insisted on marrying him. Now you've become like this.”

My father, Ferdinand Bradley, was silent at this time. He then took a breath.

“You've never suffered like this before, my lovely. That bastard left you eight months pregnant on the highway, right? Not only did you lose the baby, you're hurt too. But he's nowhere to be found right now.”

My mother cried so hard that her nose was sore. I hugged my mother and cried loudly.

Back then, I had just graduated and started working. Meanwhile, Jonathan, as my senior, helped me a lot in my work. 

He was gentle and patient. It made me attracted to him. I truly felt that he was a person who could be committed and entrusted in my future life. Although my parents told me that marriage life was not only about the person but also about the family.

Jonathan Beadsworth was born in the countryside. Our families were very different in every aspect. It made my parents not agree with the marriage. But after we pestered them, they relented and told me that as long as I was happy, it would be fine for them.

Now, after only one year of marriage, I have made myself into this mess. Not only did I lose my child and suffer physical damage, but even the house and car I had before marriage did not belong to me anymore.

When my father heard about the grievances I had suffered, he exploded on the spot. He also scolded Jonathan in a rage.

My dad wanted to pull Jonathan out and beat him up immediately. I was their only child, so they naturally loved me very much. They also were naturally very precious to me.

“Jonathan, the bastard. He actually made my daughter suffer so many grievances. How dare he make my daughter suffer so much, huh? I'll never forgive him. I swear I'll beat him up if I find him.”

My dad was so angry at this time. His face turned red. He then picked up his cell phone and car keys. My dad was about to go and settle the score with Jonathan.

On the other hand, my mom knew that this incident completely angered my dad. My dad was getting serious. It made her hurriedly grab him back.

My mom explained, “Didn't you just hear what Madeleine said, Ferdinand? That group of people not only left her on the highway, but they're still at her house, okay? I heard there are quite a few people, all relatives of that asshole. There's even a wanted murderer.”

My mom took a breath for a while. “There's only two of us, Ferdinand. We're not even enough, okay? We won't be able to fight if we go. Hurry up and call your brothers and relatives. We can't lose anything.”

My dad calmed down for a while. He then got out his cell phone to call someone. Meanwhile, my mom also called her friends to come.

Our family went back to my parents' house. They told the elders of the family what happened.

After hearing what happened in my life, they were collectively furious. They couldn't wait to tear Jonathan apart with their hands immediately to take out the anger for me.

Even my eighty-year-old grandfather rushed back, ''This is too much. How dare you bully my granddaughter like this?”

My parents looked at the large group of people. We were ready to formulate a plan first. We considered that there were still wanted criminals in their house.

Suddenly, Jonathan sent a few photos of Uncle Graziano, Aunt Abigail and a group of strange relatives. A bunch of men and women with fierce looks.  Their eyes were sharp as if they were going to judge me.

The house was a complete mess. There was some graffiti on the walls and tables, leftovers and garbage all over the place.

Jonathan called me by phone. He said, “Madeleine, you've gone too far. I can't believe you haven't come back by now. The elders of the family are very angry.”

“Didn't you just send your Uncle Graziano and Aunt Abigail home first? Do you have to make a scene? It seems that you won't learn your lesson if I don't teach you a lesson, right? I'll teach you soon, Jonathan.”

My husband shouted, “Come back and apologize to my aunt and uncle. Otherwise, you'll never come back to this house again.”

I laughed coldly. ‘How shameless my husband? How dare he talk like that while living in my house?’

I shouted back at him, “Okay, then I won't go back, my husband. As for the house and car, you return it as soon as possible, okay? Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude.”

Jonathan almost exploded with anger after hearing my words. Seeing that my cell phone was positioned at my parents' house, he rushed here immediately with his men.

“Madeleine, I will come to you right now. I'll bring my uncle and aunt to teach you a lesson.”

I hung up the phone and called the police again, “Hello, the murderer who is wanted for a one hundred thousand dollars reward is right in front of my house.”

The police received the message and immediately came out. This time, I wanted to watch them throw themselves into the trap.
