The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 268
Around seven in the evening, Ethan walked out of the hospital. Leyton noticed the small grin on Ethan’s face and thought, ‘Maybe he had a nice talk with Ms. Jent. The medicine he takes isn’t as good as the nice things she says. Well, that’s alright. It might help him move on from his past.’
Ethan got some painkillers from his pocket to take. It had been cold lately, and his leg often hurt.
“Tell George to set up a room. Decorate it just the way she likes!” He said. Leyton was surprised and asked, “Is Ms. Jent moving to the Arnold residence? How will we tell Mrs. Arnold Sr.?”
Ethan replied, “I’ll talk to her myself. Just drive. Let’s head back to the office! “Yes, sir!” Leyton answered.
It was definitely a good thing for Ethan. to have Madelyn leave the Jent family. Zach, Madelyn’s brother, had chosen not to save her when she faced assaulters, even though he witnessed it. This behavior became known to many people. How heartless can he be. In the end, Hayson had raised a snake. But if Hayson had been aware of this situation, how would he handle it and address the challenges posed by the son he had carefully raised?
At the hospital, Madelyn sat quietly by the window, looking at the night. The light outside shone in her eyes as she thought about things. She wasn’t sure if what she did was right. She had been really careful all this time. If she messed up, things would be bad…
‘Zach, I’m leaving now. Your wish is finally coming true!’ Madelyn thought. Madelyn finally fell asleep around ten o’clock. In the dark room, Zach came in. He looked at Madelyn sleeping soundly on the bed.
“Who visited today, besides Kevin?” He asked. Rosario said, “Mr. Arnold came to see her. They talked alone in the room for a bit. After he left, Madelyn just sat there. He also mentioned something about solving the school problem. So, Madelyn can go back to school next week.”
A storm seemed to brew in Zach’s eyes. After a bit, he asked, “What did the doctor say about her condition?”
Rosario said, “She can leave tomorrow. But her symptoms will take a few more days to get better.”
“Okay,” he said. Zach waved his hand, and Rosario left quietly. Madelyn felt an itch on her face. She hadn’t slept well because she was so itchy last night. She patted her face and went back to sleep.
As a result, there was a big empty space. next to her. Zach took off his shoes and got into the same bed with her. He faced her back and lay down. Apart from the medicine smell, there was a sweet scent from her. Zach closed his eyes and tried to sleep. He thought he would sleep right away, but his brain was awake.
Darkness was inside him. A beast that shouldn’t see light was locked up. It would cross that line if it got free from its chains… He had to control it. He didn’t know how much longer he could hold on…
Madelyn woke up the next day. She pulled up her sleeve and saw the red spots were fading. A scary thought suddenly came to her. She froze.
At the same time, Rosario came in with flowers and a vase filled with water. Madelyn asked cautiously, “Did Brother come last night?” Rosario said, “Mr. Jardin did come, but he only stayed for a while. He looked at you and left.”
‘Is that so?’ Madelyn thought. She felt like she was overthinking things. It was probably the blanket. Rosario said, “The doctor will come for a check-up soon. If all’s good, you can leave. Mr. Jardin will come to pick you up.”
Madelyn furrowed her brows and asked, “Why is he coming here for?” Rosario said, “It’s the weekend. Mr. Jardin has the day off, so he’ll pick you up.”
After placing the flowers, Rosario walked over and held onto Madelyn as she spoke, “I remade the pastina without pepper. Do you want breakfast?
Madelyn replied, “I’m about to leave the hospital, so why go through all this trouble now? You can make breakfast once we’re home.”
Rosario explained, “Mr. Jardin hired me to take care of you. Naturally, you’re the top priority. Jadie might enjoy pastina with pepper, but since you don’t like it, I won’t add any.”
Madelyn felt a twinge of jealousy inside. Rosario had been by her side since childhood, and she didn’t want her treating anyone else better. She could feel jealous too.
Madelyn got up and embraced Rosario. “You can’t treat anyone better than me in the future. Just a little better for others.”
Rosario laughed softly, patting Madelyn on the back. “You’re a funny one, child. How could anyone compare to you? You’re the family’s missus. Of course, your needs come first.”
“Madelyn!” Jadie’s voice suddenly rang out. Madelyn glanced at the door and saw Jadie and Zach entering. Jadie wore a white coat with a grey scarf, likely from the same brand as Zach’s black one. She held a bouquet of sunflowers.
Jadie approached and inquired, ” Feeling better?” Madelyn nodded, and the corner of her lips pulled into a small smile, “Much better. Thanks for asking.”
Jadie shared some good news, “Guess what, Madelyn? We’ll be classmates again in the future! This semester’s results are out. I made it into Class One. Since vou’re brilliant, as vour sister. I’ll have to work even harder.”
Madelyn sincerely congratulated her. “It’s all thanks to Zach’s help. He predicted the right questions and tutored me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have stood a chance!” Jadie glanced at Zach with gratitude.
“Ms. Jent!” Suddenly, George’s voice broke in. He entered with a group of bodyguards trailing him. George walked up to Madelyn, ignoring everyone else. He stood with one hand across his chest, a gesture that conveyed his respect.
“The discharge process is done. You’re free to leave the hospital whenever you’re ready,” George informed Madelyn.
