The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 544
“Okay.” With that, Jadie stepped out of the car. Kevin drove away. “The Arnolds have no intention of calling off the engagement with Ms. Jent. They’ll proceed with the engagement as planned in three days.
“Mr. Jardin, I don’t understand why you want to ruin their engagement. Ms. Jent marrying into the Arnold family should be of no harm to you. And even if you want to ruin it, why not just tell the Arnold family about Ms. Jolie’s secrets directly? That way, we wouldn’t have to go through all of this.”
Zach seemed indifferent. He rested his hand on the car window, tapped his temple with his index finger, and shared his thoughts with Kevin. “Those photos were just a test for Ethan, to see how much he can forgive when it comes to Madelyn.”
So far, it seemed like Ethan was truly moved by Madelyn. Most people can’t easily forgive betrayal. Ethan’s willingness to forgive Madelyn appeared to be within Zach’s expectations.
Zach continued, “And Madelyn just wants to escape from me, from the Jent family. That’s why she can tolerate Ethan Arnold and Donna Jolie’s past. Unfortunately, she still doesn’t understand me. Those photos were just the beginning.
“No matter how powerful the Arnold family is, Ethan is just a rich kid raised in luxury. He doesn’t know the darkness of human hearts. He hasn’t dealt with predators lurking in the shadows for years, the kind of predators who can set countless traps for their prey.”
Even the most upright person can’t withstand the hidden daggers of villains. In the end, they meet a tragic fate. Zach continued, “Donna Jolie’s secrets are indeed a potent weapon, but having them alone won’t suffice. Now is not the time for them to surface.
“What I want… is for Madelyn to remember deeply. As long as she can’t forget, there’s no turning back for her. I’ve known her for over a decade. Ethan’s first betrayal might be forgiven, but the second, the third? If Madelyn accumulates enough disappointment in him, she’ll naturally leave.”
Kevin conceded, “…Are you planning to reveal Ms. Jolie’s secrets at the engagement party?”
“I’ve said it before, these things can only surface at the right time.”
Madelyn and Ethan were just getting engaged, not married. If they were getting married, Zach might do something even worse. He had never been denied what he wanted. If he couldn’t have Madelyn, he didn’t mind ruining her, just like what Hayson did to that woman.
Two days passed quickly with exams. When it was over, the students took graduation photos together. Lem was planning a dinner, but Madelyn didn’t join; she had to rush for photos to be used the day after tomorrow at the engagement.
Ethan agreed that after their engagement, she could go to the Paris Art Academy for three months. Just three months, and Ethan planned to accompany her in Paris. Because he didn’t want to miss her.
In the car, Ethan was on the phone with Donna. “…I won’t call off the engagement. Leaving Venturia is your only choice; this is my utmost patience with you.”
On the other end of the phone, Donna screamed hysterically, “I ended up prison, suffered, and got hurt all because of her. I heard it with my own ears; it was all Madelyn’s orders, those people tortured me.
I almost died in prison! And now you tell me you believe her?! What makes you believe her?” in Ethan replied, “I’ll find out the mastermind behind what happened to you in prison. Madelyn would never do such a thing.”
