The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 686
Madelyn said, “Not everything will go according to your wishes, even if you’ve achieved your current status!
“If you want to have a kept woman, there are plenty of girls who’d be happy to be with you. Lots of them are even prettier and younger than me, and they’d love to spend time with you.
“Stop using me for your fun. I can’t do it. And don’t think for a second that I’ll just be your plaything!
“I genuinely wish you all the best with Yvonne. I hope you two have a great life together, have kids soon, and build a big, happy family.”
After that, she returned to the room and slammed the door closed before locking it. She could not bear the intense headache anymore. She grabbed a few pills from the bedside table and swallowed them.
Her breathing suddenly became rapid. For a moment, her vision suddenly blacked out. She slumped to the ground and clutched her head enduring the pain as she waited for it to fade away.
On the balcony in the living room, Zach picked up the phone call from Yvonne after she called over ten times. He said, “What’s the matter?”
Yvonne gently said, “Mom has arranged with a photography studio for an outdoor photoshoot for us tomorrow. I picked a few locations. Can you check if you’re available tomorrow?
Her tone was very cautious when she said that to seek his opinion.Zach lowered his head and flicked off the ash from his cigarette, “I’m not available tomorrow. I have something to do.”
“But I’ve checked with Kevin and looked at your schedule. You have a day off tomorrow,” Yvonne quickly continued, “Zach, Mom has already booked the photographer, the dresser, and the makeup artist. Please don’t reject me.”
Zach flicked away the nearly burnt-out cigarette and said, “You know what you’ll have to put up with after marrying me? Living alone at home. It’s best if you can handle the solitude.”
Yvonne felt hurt and expressed, “I don’t want to be just your wife in name. I want to be your real wife. I don’t mind Madelyn being with you. I just need you to spend some time with me when you can, alright?”
In the past, Yvonne had a reputation in her circle for being difficult to handle. She was ruthless, proud, and quite stubborn. But now, it seemed like she had shed those characteristics.
In previous times, Yvonne used to give orders to Zach and act as if she were superior to him.But now, she was behaving quite differently, much like how Madelyn used to act when she tried to hold on to him.
Yvonne had never been short of admirers, just as Zach always had plenty of women around him.Even at his lowest point, if Zach so desired, numerous influential and powerful women would readily offer everything just for the chance to be with him.
But he had pride. He never wanted to get what he wanted from those women.He said, “Send me the locations for tomorrow.”
Upon hearing his response, Yvonne happily said, “Okay. I’ll wait for you outside Southern Haven Villas tomorrow.”
Zach replied, “No need. Just send me the address to my phone.”
He then ended the call after that. In less than a minute, he received an address on his phone. Zach turned the master bedroom doorknob, but the door remained stubbornly shut. He went to fetch a spare key and used it to unlock the door.
Stepping into the room, his eyes immediately landed on a rose lying on the floor, its delicate petals marked with dirt, clearly having been stepped on.
Zach heard the sound of the shower coming from the bathroom. He sighed and rolled up his sleeves. Bendingdown, he gently picked up the fallen flower from the floor. Later, he made his way to the kitchen and tossed it into the trash.
In the kitchen, he gathered some eggs, bacon, and broccoli from the fridge. He rinsed them under the faucet and put a pot of water on to boil. Then, he cooked a plate of pasta.
Just as the pasta finished cooking, Madelyn stepped out of the shower, fresh and clean. Zach carried the plate of pasta into the room and set it on her vanity table.
He said, “Finish it. I won’t have sex with you tonight.”
