Madeline's POV
"Madeline, what are you doing here?" He asked in more than a whisper, and I could see how my husband's angry face turned soft.
I hated that I had to see my husband's misery and concern during this difficult ti in his life, but I didn't have a choice but to go on with my mission of getting back at his father for everything Clark had done to us.
"Hello, my love; I am sorry. I know I have made a terrible mistake, but you have to believe ; I need to do this," I answered, and I could see the alarm on his face as he shook his head.
He looked dashing as ever, even if he was mourning, and I knew I didn't have ti to explain what was going on, but I knew he would understand later on after everything was in place.
We all be happy, and when this is over, I will make sure to make him understand that I did all this for our son and his family.
"You have to get out; this is my brother's funeral, you are fake, and you need to leave before I call the police. We are mourning for losing my brother and his wife. I couldn't believe soone like you would ruin this solemn event!" He shouted at , which made my entire body tremble in fear while I could hear the crowd gasping in disbelief.
I was shocked because I had never heard my husband shout at , and I was taken aback by how he reacted to my presence because I was expecting he would understand why I needed to co to Archois.
I could hear the murmuring behind us, and I beca so confused about what to do; I was on my way to telling my husband why I had co ho to our hotown, and I tried my best to stop my entire body from trembling.
Hunter knew I was real, and I suddenly felt worried about why he got so angry with and pretended he didn't know ; we aid to make
my husband believed I was a fraud, but I felt hurt because he called fake.
"I am your wife, Hunter," I mumbled, trying my best to make my voice as low as possible so that only my husband could hear talking.
I couldn't believe my husband would make a show by shouting at , and I am sure everyone's attention was on . It was my plan all along; I wanted to make Clark and Charlotte realize I was attending the burial so they would make their evil plan.
"Don't ever fool , and my wife was in Neospoli country as of the mont. I talked with her a while ago through a video call. Madeline was not here, so you better get out before I will drag you out of this place." Hunter said, and I could see the anger on his face that I took a back step.
It seed my plan all worked out, but I couldn't believe my husband would not recognize at all. I felt so hurt, but I needed to be vital to make Clark believe I was real, and now that Hunter denied my identity.
I don't think Clark will do sothing to after Hunter announced to everyone I was fake. My shoulders sagged as I looked into Hunter's eyes.
"How could you do this to , my love?" I asked as I tried to act normal, but everything I said now was true.
"I am Maddie, and I am sorry if I ca here to say my last goodbye to Parker and Rebecca; they both an so much to . I didn't know this would make you angry. I am real, and I am your wife!" I shouted back to him so that I could make Clarke believe I was his daughter-in-law.
"Hunter, please, don't do this," I begged as I moved closer to my husband.
"No, I don't believe you; please, don't make this hard for all of us, give us so respect; I don't know who sent you, and you can tell your boss to go to hell, isn't it enough that my brother and his wife died?" He asked.
"What do you want from us? From our family? Tell your damn boss to leave my family alone. I don't even know how you copied my wife's voice, her face, her figure, but I just want to tell you, even if Madeline would change her appearance into soone else's face and physique, I will always know it was her." My husband added.
"Even my assistant, Cal, knew you were fake; you can go back to your damn big boss and tell him to back off because the Divenson will never stop until we can give Parker and Rebecca's death justice." He added sternly; I heard another gasp from the audience. I could tell my husband poured out his raw emotions as he talked with .
"I don't have a boss, Hunter, and you have to believe ; I am your wife. I only ca here to say my last goodbye and to see them for the last ti." I responded, and before Hunter could talk, I could feel strong hands gripping my wrists.
"Please, Miss, you need to co with ," he said with authority as he started to yank away from my husband.
"Hunter, please! It is !" I yelled as the man used force on , and I could see Lily coming after us.
"Wait! Please, let her go!" My sister-in-law shouted, and the man suddenly stopped from grabbing by the hands, and I stopped struggling as I smiled at Lily. I felt so delighted that she intervened, or else all that I had planned for will be gone to waste.
"Lily, what are you doing?" I heard Hunter ask her.
"Can't you see it, Hunter? She is Madeline, and I couldn't believe you were doing this to your wife. She ca all the way here to mourn with us. Are you getting paranoid that sothing might happen to her, and that is why you beg her to stay at her grandpa's castle?" Lily shouted at his brother.
"No one will hurt her, Hunter, Madeline is a strong woman, and I don't understand why there would be soone capable of hurting her," Lily said, and her words made my tears fall.
"Madeline is the most loving and selfless woman I have ever t; she did her best to save when I was kidnapped; I just want you to know I will be brokenhearted if sothing happens to her, Hunter; I don't know if I can cope up if soone evil
person will hurt your wife." She added.
"Hey, sweetheart, I know how much you love Maddie, but don't worry, she isn't your sister-in-law, my wife was safe in Neospoli, and this woman here is not real." Hunter insisted.
"No, I don't know why you are doing this to your wife, Hunter, but I can tell she is Madeline," Lily responded, and I could tell everyone was listening to their conversation, and all eyes were on .
"Lily, please, not this ti; you have to believe for Madeline's sake; she was only using Maddie's face to make us believe she ca here to mourn with us, so please don't get fooled by her face, Lily," Hunter begged his sister.
"I knew the truth behind all this, and she wanted to do sothing evil to any mber of my family, especially you," my husband added, but Lily shook her head as she walked towards .
"I am sorry, big brother, if I have to disobey you this ti, I want to be with Maddie; if you ask her to leave, I will go with her," Lily answered, and she gave a weak smile as she looked at .
I couldn't stop beaming at her, even if I could taste the tears in my mouth. Lily has been my savior countless tis; I loved her on the first day she beca my friend, and she is like a biological sister to , and I could see how much she loved and adored every ti she looked at .
I could see Clark's face pale as he looked at his daughter, and then, when he turned his gaze at , I couldn't read the expression on his face as he looked at my face.
"No, Lily, stop where you are! Lily!" Clark shouted at his youngest daughter, and I could feel the concern in his voice, and I could tell sothing was about to happen, but Lily didn't listen to him as he moved closer to .
I could see the horrified looked on Clark's face as he stood up from his seat and ran towards , and I didn't know what was going on as I felt the man's hand loosen on my wrists, and I couldn't believe he had let go.
"Dad, stop!" It was Charlotte's voice; she also got up from her seat, and I could tell she was worried for her dad; I could also see the horrified look on her face.
Then I heard the gunshot, and I could feel it in my chest, and I could feel the taste of blood in my mouth.
"No! Madeline!" I heard Hunter's voice, and then I could hear Clark shouting the word stop that reverberated throughout the entire place.
"I am sorry, my love," I mumbled, and I heard another gunshot as I felt soone hug before my entire surrounding turned black, and I lost consciousness.
