Zach was someone who had gone through gunfire and bloodshed, since he had been involved in most of the illegal crimes that Hayson had committed.On the other hand, Madelyn was just a sheltered and privileged young lady who had grown up in a wealthy family and never experienced any hardship. She had been arrogant in her previous life. Despite being incapable of even winning an argument, she would always have a group of bodyguards around her, so everyone would avoid her.She had never experienced any betrayals or hardship, so her life had been smooth sailing. She had been wealthy and never had any worries in life.In her previous life, Cecilia had mocked Madelyn by calling her useless, and now Madelyn realized that she had been right. In her previous life, Madelyn had indeed been a useless person, good at nothing other than being "Mrs. Jardin".After seeing Cecilia attend various grand banquets with Zach and shining like a star alongside him in the news and on television, Madelyn fel

The gynecologist said to Zach, "What's your opinion?"He gloomily looked at Madelyn. At this moment, he would rather her act unreasonably toward him than be calm as if nothing had happened like she was now."Up to her!" Zach responded. After that, he agitatedly turned around and left.Kai knew what Zach was thinking. He smiled as he quietly watched Zach leave.He thought, 'I told him he'd regret it. Madelyn is the most beautiful woman in Ventropolis. With such a pretty girl around, anyone would be attracted to her. Not to mention, he's the illustrious Zach Jardin, but he still hasn't managed to win over her even after so many years!'The sun was setting as the two of them left the hospital.Madelyn had long thrown the milk into the trash can. After learning that Zach had drugged her milk, she vowed to never drink anything related to milk ever again.On the way back, Zach remained silent, but the atmosphere in the car was tense. Madelyn rolled down the car window a little to get

Madelyn smiled. She was touched and her heart felt a warmth that she had never experienced.In the video, Forrest's berth on the train was by the window. There was the most beautiful scenery along the way. The fleeting scenes that the train passed by had been edited by Forrest into slow-motion frames for her to see...After watching Forrest's video, Madelyn wished she could video call him right now so that she could see the scene live.By the time she finished watching, it was already around three in the afternoon.After she walked out of the library, she called Forrest's phone number.He accepted the call after just a few seconds, "What's up, Ms. Jent? Do you need something?"Madelyn, "Forrest, I've received them. Thank you! I've seen all the photos and the video. They're very beautiful."Forrest lazily took a deep breath. His voice sounded like he had just woken up as he coldly replied, "Okay. Got it. Anything else? I want to sleep."Madelyn, "Can I see the original video? Th

Ethan took a bite and said, "Not bad."Most of the time at the Arnold residence, Ethan usually went along with Madelyn's wishes. This was all just to impress Hayson.Ethan spoke up, "Back at home, I never saw you treat me this well. Why are you being so kind today?" His gaze was fixed on her, intense and unwavering, making it hard to look away. To others, his look seemed far from innocent.By 'home,' Ethan was clearly referring to the Arnold residence. Madelyn found herself in an unfamiliar situation, unsure of how to respond. Gathering her courage, she replied, "Here, you're a guest, so naturally, we treat you well. Come on, eat before it cools down and loses its flavor."This meal turned out to be the longest one Madelyn had ever experienced, stretching on for a full two hours. People got pretty drunk; Hayson brought out his prized red wine, worth tens of thousands of dollars, as well as white wine. Three of them managed to empty the bottles.Hayson was helped back to his room t

Ethan chuckled. "Yep, awesome." In Ventropolis, the Arnold family was in charge, and he did not want to mess up again. "Will you stay with me, Madelyn?" He looked at Madelyn with his deep amber eyes, making her feel like she was being pulled in.Madelyn felt a little panic. "Haven't I always been around?""You know what I'm asking."Madelyn pretended not to understand. "What do you mean?"Ethan touched Madelyn's curly hair, looking into her eyes with care. His fingers moved down her face and gently lifted her chin. As he leaned closer, he suddenly covered her eyes with his hand. Everything turned black for her, but then she felt a soft touch on her lips.Madelyn was startled, her eyes wide open. She felt a gentle kiss on her lips. They were close, both of their hearts beating fast. On the ground, their shadows looked like they were dancing together.That night, the moon seemed extra bright and kind.Leyton drove Ethan home. Ethan had sobered up, but it was not safe for him to
