The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 670
Madelyn’s phone rang as soon as she said those words. After seeing the caller ID, she hesitated for a moment before answering. Then, she spoke in an annoyed tone, “You said you were going to give me three days, and the time hasn’t come yet.”
“If you want to go to her grave, I’ll come with you in the afternoon after I’m done with my meeting.” Zach replied.
“I don’t need you to go with me. I can go alone.”
“It’s either you don’t go or let me come with you. Your choice,” he responded, his voice immediately turning cold. She did not really have a choice, did she? So, Madelyn reluctantly agreed, “Then I’ll wait for you downstairs later.”
She did not want to cause any unnecessary trouble. The sky was sunny and bright in the morning but suddenly turned cloudy by afternoon, as if there might be a heavy rain later. So, Madelyn brought an umbrella with her, just in case.
The bodyguard drove as Madelyn sat in the rear passenger seat. The journey lasted for more than an hour before they finally arrived at the Jardin Corporation. Madelyn sat inside the car with a bouquet of balloon flowers that symbolized eternal love.
Some said that when balloon flowers bloomed, happiness would follow. Some people would be able to seize it, while others were destined to miss it.
In the mansion she lived in when she was younger, there was a large patch of balloon flowers planted in the garden. Rosario told Madelyn that her mother had planted them in the past, but for some reason, all of them withered overnight.
Madelyn was starting to get impatient as she looked up to the top floor of the building, which was barely visible. After about half an hour, she finally saw someone coming out of the building.
Madelyn withdrew her gaze and her expression turned calm. She thought that they would not meet again for three days.
Zach got into the car, wrapped his arm around her waist, and took a deep whiff of the fragrance on her, just like before. “I’ve made a reservation at a restaurant for tonight.”
Madelyn ignored him and said nonchalantly, “Let’s go. It might rain soon.
The car started. Zach noticed the black dress she was wearing, and it reminded him of a person deep in his mind. After more than twenty years, he only had a vague memory of her silhouette. However, he could not deny that her beauty was truly one of a kind, and describing her as breathtaking would be an understatement.
The car drove on the mountain road for a while, and soon, they arrived at the bottom of the hill. They had to walk for the remaining stretch of the journey.
Madelyn still remembered where the grave was located. However, when they were just halfway into their journey, she was already drenched in cold sweat. Her steps were unsteady, and she felt something wrong with her body. The journey was only supposed to take them a little more than ten minutes, yet Madelyn spent almost half an hour. The sky would be dark by the time they arrived at the grave if they kept this up.
“I’ll carry you on my back.” Zach immediately went to hold her up as soon as he saw her struggling. He gently wiped off the sweat from her forehead and frowned as he asked, Why does your hand feel so cold? Are you feeling sick?”
“I should’ve worn thicker clothes. I’m fine. Let’s keep walking. It’s already getting late.”
Zach took off his blazer and put it on for Madelyn. Then, he lifted her off the ground and strode forward with steady and swift steps. Madelyn felt very comfortable in his arms.
She did not struggle because she genuinely had no strength to walk further. When they arrived at the grave, Zach put her down.
Madelyn looked around the grave and realized that it was very clean. There was even a bouquet of balloon flowers placed in front of the tombstone. She looked at Zach, puzzled. “Did you come here earlier?”
‘No, it couldn’t be him! I know him too well. He would never do something like this, so who could it be?’
