The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 557
Madelyn endured the pain while showering. As the warm water trickled down from her head, Madelyn closed her eyes and still felt something was wrong. She touched the sensitive places on her nether regions. There were no swollen marks, and most of the pain was gone.
She did not see the red mark on her inner thigh. It was hidden from plain sight, so Madelyn did not notice.
‘Could I be overthinking it? Maybe nothing happened last night. Even if something did happen, I might’ve been in a drunken craze. How else could the roses be ruined just like that?’ Madelyn thought.
She remembered that she had seen people not remembering anything after getting drunk. Madelyn swiftly brushed aside her worries. After showering for half an hour, she came out wrapped in a towel. If she looked behind herself, she would see love marks all over her back from the mirror.
After she got dressed, Madelyn called Ethan. In half a minute, he picked up her call. She asked him, “Ethan, how is Evelyn?”
“Ms. Jent!” The person who picked up the call was Leyton.
“Mr. Spear?” Madelyn was confused. “It’s me, Leyton. Mr. Arnold suddenly had some business to handle, so he might be unable to accompany you to Paris. I’ve arranged a chauffeur for the hotel. They will send you to the airport. Mr. Arnold has arranged for everything beforehand once you arrive in Paris. When you get to the airport, personnel will be designated to pick you up; we will rush to meet you after a week. Mr. Arnold is still in a meeting, so I apologize to you on his behalf,” Leyton answered.
“It’s alright. Company affairs are more important. Is Evelyn okay?” Madelyn asked. She was slightly disappointed as this was the first time she was leaving Ventropolis and venturing to somewhere unknown. She had never been to somewhere so far before, and it would be a lie if she said she was not nervous or scared.
“Don’t worry, Ms. Jent. Mrs. Arnold Sr. is fine,” Leyton said. “I’m glad Evelyn is fine. You can go back to work, Leyton. I have to leave soon, too,” Madelyn replied.
“Safe trip, Ms. Jent,” Leyton wished her.
“Alright,” Madelyn said. After Madelyn hung up the call, Leyton raised his head and said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Arnold. Ms. Jent will be fine alone. The bodyguards will be there around the clock to protect her wellbeing.”
“Mmm,” Ethan answered. ‘Could this be divine intervention? Could Mr. Arnold ever escape Donna’s clutches?’ Leyton thought.
Thankfully, Madelyn had left, giving Ethan enough time to handle this issue. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable if she knew about it. This was never a simple affair since the start. However, a week was enough for him to resolve this issue. The only thing Ethan did not know was whether Madelyn could accept the existence of this child. (2
At twelve o’clock, the plane departing for Paris was preparing to take off. A vehicle was parked at a clearing outside the airport. The engine of the aircraft roared as it flew over their heads. It left a white trail behind.
“It seems you’ve lost this bet, yet it feels like you’ve also won. Congratulations! You’ve succeeded in getting your sister,” Kai ridiculed.
Zach, sitting in the driver’s seat, was surprisingly not mad. Instead, he was much gentler than usual. He seemed content, like a beast that had had its fill. Zach replied, “The games have only just started.”
“You’re not satisfied with just a single Jent family? You want the Arnold family, too?” Kai asked. He squinted his eyes while staring at Zach.
“I think you’ve gone mad, Zach. Doing this all by yourself? You’re biting off more than you can chew,” Kai critiqued.
Zach stared at the plane until it disappeared into the clouds. He then retracted his gaze and had a smile on his face, “Are you so eager to know my secrets?”
