The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 402
Leyton and George had already left when Madelyn returned after taking the call. Now, only Ethan and Madelyn were in the tiny apartment. Ethan noticed Madelyn’s expression was not great. So, he asked, “What’s wrong?”
Madelyn evasively replied, “My father asked about what happened last night. It’s fine.” Actually, she had been scolded by Hayson. Everyone would look unhappy after being scolded.
Madelyn continued, “Anyway, I’ve made some pancakes. Do you want to eat some? It’s still very early now. You can take a nap after you eat. Ethan affectionately looked at her as he said, “Okay.”
After they had their breakfast, Madelyn brought Ethan to her bedroom. The room was clean and tidy. There was even a huge doll on the bed that was very eye-catching. Madelyn made the bed for him and said, “It isn’t as comfortable as your home, and the condition here is quite poor. Please bear with it.
Ethan asked, “What’ll you do when I nap?” Madelyn answered, “I still have two hours of free time. Since I’m already awake, I’ll pack my things and go outside to do some homework. I won’t disturb you.”
Ethan grabbed her hand, “Sleep with me for a while.” They were looking at each other. Madelyn wanted to reject him. But when she thought about him looking for her the entire night, her heart softened, and she agreed.
They lay on the bed while Madelyn faced away from him. Ethan hugged her tightly from behind. His body was warm. Madelyn just stayed still like a doll.
Madelyn carefully got up when the alarm went off for the third time. She saw he was still sleeping soundly. When she was about to leave after wearing her shoes, the phone on the desk suddenly rang. It was Ethan’s phone. The caller’s name displayed on the screen was “Donna Jolie.”
The name sounded familiar to Madelyn. But she could not remember who the person was. Initially, she wanted to switch off the phone to avoid disturbing his sleep. But she decided against it, took the phone with her, and walked out of the room.
Meanwhile, Leyton came back into the apartment. When she was at the door, she saw Leyton sitting on the sofa. Upon seeing her, he stood up and greeted, “Ms. Jent.
He then looked at the phone in her hand. Madelyn nodded. She pointed at the closed bedroom door and spoke softly,” He’s still sleeping. Someone called him just now. I took his phone out because I feared it might disturb him. Can you check if it’s an important call?”
Leyton took the phone over, “You could actually answer the call.” Madelyn did not respond to it. She checked the time and said, “I need to go to school now.”
Leyton offered, “I’ll take you there!” Madelyn declined politely, “It’s fine. It’s just a few minutes’ walk. You stay here and take care of him. You didn’t rest well last night, either. You can lie down on the sofa here for a while. Though, I’m sorry you have to sleep on the sofa.”
Leyton nodded, “It’s all right.”
After he watched Madelyn leave, he looked at the caller’s name, who called again. He frowned as he thought, ‘This woman is so despicable. She deleted the text message Ms. Jent sent to Mr. Arnold. And yet, she still audaciously called Mr. Arnold as if nothing had happened.’
