Comeback Of The Adored Heiress

Chapter 65:

Now, it seemed like all netizens were mocking Natural Beauty.

“What a joke Natural Beauty has become! They even paid Denali hush money!”

“Denali stands firm against the wrongdoings. I respect that!”

“Denali really has integrity. The products she endorses are top-notch. She never pushes inferior products just for a paycheck.”

“That’s true. I’ve tried the products she promotes. They’re actually great. I recommend you try them too. You won’t be disappointed.”

“I think Natural Beauty should just shut down. Their products are overpriced and ineffective. With such a tarnished reputation, how can they dare to keep selling?”

“It’s funny. I’ve never heard of a president so clueless. Natural Beauty is clearly finished.”

Within just an hour, the issue had exploded online. Denali’s social media account gathered over 50,000 comments. The rate at which it escalated was astonishing.

Madisyn remained unflustered. She casually sipped her tea. It seemed many were involved in stirring up this controversy.

At that moment, Denali made a new post. She stated, “Thank you, Migge Skincare, for choosing me. I will not let you down going forward.”noveldrama

The post included a poster featuring Denali holding a jar of cream, her smile radiant.

When Carly glanced at her phone, she caught sight of Denali’s latest post and exclaimed in surprise, “Is she now collaborating with Migge Skincare?”

Madisyn raised her eyebrows but remained silent. Her calm demeanor made Carly look like a joke. Seeing this, Elaine admired Madisyn’s composure.

Elaine had been quite displeased with Carly’s actions. Now, Madisyn’s disregard for Carly’s antics was a good lesson for Carly, teaching her not to underestimate Madisyn in the future.

“Aren’t you feeling guilty at all? Your father entrusted this company to you with great expectations,” Carly said directly.

“Why should I feel guilty when they’re the ones slandering me? If the public doesn’t trust me, it’s because they are foolish. Mrs. Reed, surely you’re not among them?” Madisyn retorted, her gaze unwavering. This wasn’t the first time she’d made such a remark today. Carly felt a twinge of guilt, which quickly changed into embarrassment and anger.

She scowled and retorted, “I’m a friend of your mother’s after all. Isn’t your tone a bit disrespectful?”

“Am I not allowed to speak the truth in front of my mother’s friend?” Madisyn replied innocently. “Should I lie and say you’re smart? That would not be good for you.”

Elaine nearly laughed out loud at this. Carly’s face went white. Seeing Elaine’s amusement only deepened her embarrassment. “Elaine, please discipline your daughter.”

“Well, do try not to embarrass Carly further, Madisyn,” Elaine suggested lightly. However, she wasn’t really scolding Madisyn. Instead, she said to Carly with a stern voice, “Carly, Madisyn is an honest girl. She’s not inclined to sugarcoat the truth for you. It’s for your own good. Don’t put too much trust in online gossip; a lot of it isn’t true.”

Faced with Elaine’s obvious support for Madisyn, Carly was left speechless. She remained quiet and just waited for the meal to be served.

During dinner, Carly and Kristine murmured to each other.

“Kristine, it’s really tough for you, having such adoptive parents. You’re outstanding, yet they don’t appreciate you. Instead, they favor someone who doesn’t deserve it.” Carly expressed her disdain for Madisyn.

Hearing this, Kristine was on the verge of tears. She hadn’t expected that an outsider would show her genuine concern. Others seemed to understand the dynamics within the Johns family better than the family members themselves.

Kristine said softly, “Mrs. Reed, it’s okay. After all, I’m not their biological daughter. It’s only natural they favor Madisyn over me.”

“Humph, in my opinion, they’ll eventually rely on you.”

Kristine sighed. “I suppose that’s my role.”

Seeing this, Carly genuinely felt sorry for Kristine. To Carly, it appeared that Elaine and the rest of the Johns family were completely blind!

Suddenly remembering something, Carly pulled out her phone and sent a message. Meanwhile, Elaine was engaged in conversation with Madisyn, offering her comfort, oblivious to the exchange between Carly and Kristine.

Madisyn gave Elaine a warm smile. Although Carly’s words hadn’t hurt her, she felt moved by her mother’s affection. The mood was quite heartfelt.

As dinner was winding down, Carly unexpectedly ordered more food.

“Why are you ordering more when we’re almost finished?” Elaine asked in confusion.

Carly said with a smile, “Josie will be joining us shortly.”

Elaine immediately understood her intentions. She felt slightly uneasy, hoping Josie wouldn’t bring up business matters like Carly often did.

Soon after, Josie arrived in a rush. She brought gifts for Elaine and Kristine, apologizing, “I’m so sorry for being late. Did I interrupt your meal?”

Kristine smiled reassuringly. “You’re obviously very busy these days. Migge Skincare has been getting a lot of attention.”

“That’s right. I’m exhausted. There are too many things every day.” Josie sighed, her expression turning weary before she glanced at Madisyn. “It seems like you’ve been enjoying some downtime. You must have a lot of free time, right, Madisyn?”

“If you want some free time, perhaps you should consider taking a break from work,” Madisyn responded nonchalantly.

Josie’s smile stiffened a bit. This woman was really straightforward. “Skipping work isn’t really an option. Staying busy is better.”

Then she added with a tone of concern, “But your current situation must be tough. I’ve seen the numerous negative comments about you online.”
