The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 831
Kevin was taken aback by the transformation in Zach since the accident that befell Madelyn.
Two hours later, Kevin walked into Madelyn’s room with a file bag in hand and said, “Sir, I’ve brought everything you requested.”
Zach, after carefully wiping Madelyn’s hands, covered them with a blanket. He said, “From now on, take charge of the company matters. Don’t come to me with every little thing-only the major contracts needing my signature. You’ve been with me long enough; you know what to do.”
Kevin eyed Zach, his disbelief clear. You’re walking away from everything? You built it all from nothing.” His gaze shifted to Madelyn, still and silent on the bed. “Is this permanent? What if she doesn’t wake up?”
“I owe her that much.” Zach’s voice was gentle, his touch tender on Madelyn’s face. “Now, go. Don’t disturb her rest any further.”
Kevin nodded after a pause. Understood, sir.” He couldn’t help but think, ‘Mr. Jardin’s lost it.’
True to his word, Zach left his empire behind, dedicating himself to Madelyn’s side. Ever since someone had sabotaged her IV with poison, he hadn’t left her. He was a constant presence, vigilant and unwavering.
Madelyn might be in a vegetative state, Kai informed Zach that her brain activity suggested she was somewhat aware. They hoped the right external stimuli might coax her back to consciousness.
By her side the next day, Zach played her favorite piano melodies, the music filling the room with memories. Amidst the soft tunes, while slicing an apple, he was interrupted by a bodyguard.
“Sir, a girl named Mya is here to see Ms. Jent.”
Zach answered without hesitation, “No.
The bodyguard turned to leave, but Zach called out, “Wait.”
“Anything else, sir?”
“Ensure the fifteenth floor remains off- limits,” Zach commanded, his gaze sharp and unwavering.
“Understood, sir,” the bodyguard confirmed before exiting. Zach’s mind raced with anger. ‘How dare she come here! I’d refrained from acting against her only for Madelyn’s sake.’
Zach had kept Ethan’s death a secret for so long. It infuriated him that Madelyn had disappeared and, by some means, found the precise location of Ethan’s demise right after they returned from the Harper family’s party. All this chaos erupted just as he was about to start a new chapter with her.
Zach suppressed his seething anger. With a swift motion, he skewered the apple with a knife and flung it into the bin, his expression cold as stone.
Outside, Mya and Kennedy were barred from entering. When the bodyguard reemerged, Mya approached with teary eyes. “So? Can I go in and see her now?”
“The fifteenth floor is off-limits by Mr. Jardin’s orders. You must leave,” the bodyguard stated firmly.
Mya’s tears spilled over as she begged, ” Just a moment with her, that’s all I ask. I won’t be a bother again.”
“No means no. If you don’t leave, we won’t be responsible for what happens next,” the bodyguard warned. Kennedy sighed, “Let’s go.”
Despite her daily attempts since learning of Madelyn’s plight, Zach’s resolve remained; he wouldn’t allow Mya to visit Madelyn.
