Chapter 21 Seeking Vengeance
Colton nodded. Madeline was impressed Colton was financially savvy even at such a young age. She smiled and said, “Well, let’s do it! Let’s buy this stock you suggested.”
Madeline immediately called Albert to invest all 400 million dollars in the stock. Colton was surprised a stranger who he had only got to know a few days ago would listen to him. She had also been nothing but nice and patient to him.
Nobody had ever listened to him. Daddy never listened to him; he only listened to Auntie Angie. He stopped talking since nobody was listening. Even though Daddy had never scolded him despite Auntie Angie’s accusations, Colton had always felt like he didn’t belong in his family.
It was the first time someone listened to him, and it was nice. His eyes pricked with tears of joy as he felt a warm fuzzy feeling inside. Madeline asked with a concerned look, “Colt, is everything okay? You know you can tell me anything.”
Colton liked Madeline’s gentle voice. He glanced up at her and hesitated for a moment before shaking his head. He clenched his fists as he choked back his tears.
Madeline’s heart ached. She held his hands and tried to comfort him, “Don’t worry, Colt. I’m here with you no matter what.” Colton felt safe with her. He began to feel tired and eventually fell asleep.
After tucking Colton in, Madeline quietly left his room to continue her work. She fired up her laptop and clicked on the surveillance video of the cemetery. Her face fell as she saw a familiar face on the screen. Angie was at the cemetery.

Ronald’s face turned pale. He could hardly breathe with Madeline stepping on his chest. “Why? Whose order is this? Why do you want to kill me?”
Madeline ignored his questions and turned on a recorder. She asked through gritted teeth, “Who ordered you to throw Colton Quincy off a cliff at the cemetery?”
“What are you talking about?” Ronald struggled to breathe beneath her foot.“Do I look like I’m crazy enough to hurt a Quincy family member?”
Irritated, Madeline kicked him again in the chest. “Wrong answer. You only have a chance left,” she scowled at him and said in a threatening tone, “If I were you, I would be honest.”
“Did Mr. Quincy send you?” Ronald was terrified. “It’s none of your business,” Madeline frowned, “Tell me who ordered you to hurt Colton Quincy, or I’ll kill you right now.”
“Colton Quincy is well and alive,” Ronald seemed to have given up, “I have never tried to throw him off a cliff. I have never received any order to hurt him from anyone.”
“Kill me if you don’t believe me,” he stopped struggling and lay motionless on the floor.
