The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 221
During the last class, Madelyn left and went to the visitation room of the police station at 4:30 in the afternoon. Danny, who had his head shaved, was dressed in prison uniform and sat in the detention room. There was only a thin layer of glass between them. His eyes were lifeless. and sunken.
Madelyn had come alone secretly without Zach’s knowledge. No one knew about it. She picked up the microphone hanging on the wall and pressed it against her ear. Danny did the same, but his gaze never met hers.
After the police left, Madelyn said, “Don’t worry. No one knows I’m here.”
Danny had gone through a calamity. Now, listening to her voice, his eyes turned fierce gradually, as if he wanted to devour her whole. He sneered, “Are you here to mock me? Are you satisfied now that you’ve see me like this? Madelyn, you’re just relying on your family’s wealth and power, but in reality, you’re nothing!
“You ruined me! It’s all because of you! I wouldn’t have done all this if it weren’t for you! I just wanted to get money to treat my mother. It’s all your fault! My mother is dead! My entire life. is ruined! I regret not killing you!”
Madelyn stared at him with clear eyes, “Danny, I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong. You say I ruined you, but what gives you the right to think that way? I know you’ve realized that even with money, your mother wouldn’t have survived that surgery. You’re just unwilling to accept or admit that you lost to me.”
Madelyn noticed his dilated pupils and a fleeting hint of shock in his

eyes.
She continued, “Because I used to be the last in the class with the worst performance, and I only chose Class One to escape bullying. The rumor in Class Six was that I only managed to switch classes by cheating. Even when I joined the Math Olympiad team, you thought it was because of my relationship with Yvonne. That’s why you felt it was unfair, making you resentful and jealous.
“I once doubted myself, wondering if all was my fault. I even thought about whether I shouldn’t have transferred. Now, I’ve come to realize that I wasn’t wrong; I was simply making the most of everything I’ve experienced in the past. When making these changes, I’ve never hurt anyone. It’s not me who’s wrong, it’s you! You blame everyone and everything. You’re just looking for an excuse to vent your dissatisfaction.
“Over these three years at Ventrocloud High School, you didn’t have it easy. The high tuition fees and loans overwhelmed you. You owed two years of tuition fees and had no choice but to turn to high-interest loans. The day you laid your hands on me was the deadline set by the loan sharks. If you couldn’t repay them, they would come to the school, and everyone would

know you couldn’t even afford your tuition. Eventually, your actions would negatively impact the school’s reputation and force you to drop out.”
That day was what had finally pushed Danny over the edge.
Madelyn noticed his trembling body and pale lips, and continued, “Ventropolis High School was a better option for you, but you wanted to enroll in Ventrocloud High School because of your vanity. You knew very well that you couldn’t afford the steep tuition fees here, yet you still insisted on enrolling. You had many opportunities to change your life, but you stubbornly kept choosing the wrong path.

“To the point where your mother worked four or five jobs a day just to earn enough for tuition, and it wore her health out completely. She could have saved that money for her treatment, but she sacrificed everything for you. She didn’t spend a single penny on herself, leading to her health deteriorating. You were born into an ordinary family, yet you never accepted your mediocrity. You took a wrong step, leading to a series of wrong choices.”
Even though Danny had known it was wrong, he had still forged ahead.
‘Just like me in my past life. I knew Zach had ulterior motives for me and the Jent family, but I still stubbornly insisted on marrying him, and only at the moment of death did I finally realize my mistake. In a way, Danny’s no different from me. It’s just that our desires were different.’
Danny’s eyes reddened, and his breath caught in his throat. He asked with a voice choked by soreness and pain, “How do you know all this?”
