Chapter 400
Madelyn looked at Forrest with a weary expression. She didn't know what to say to him. In the end, she simply said, "Pack up your things. Don't come here again."After saying that, she went back to her room. She found her room relatively clean, with no dust, as if someone had cleaned it.Without thinking much, she locked the door, dropped her backpack, and, without even changing her clothes, she lay on the bed under a blanket.Outside the room, Forrest and Kayla seemed to have an argument. Madelyn had a headache and didn't want to get involved. She tried hard not to dwell on it. After a while, she fell into a restless sleep.Around one o'clock in the early morning, the sound of brakes shattered the silence of the night, and Ethan got out of the car. He saw that the living room lights in the mansion were still on.Exhausted, Ethan walked into the hallway. A servant noticed him and asked in confusion, "Sir, isn't Miss Jent with you?"Ethan furrowed his brow. "She didn't come back?"

Madelyn still did not know that Ethan was extremely worried and was looking for her everywhere in Ventropolis.The first ray of morning light shone in from the window. Street vendors had already started their businesses in the street of the quiet old building. The scent of food could be smelled from a nearby location.The quietness in the residential area was broken by several luxurious black cars that came and stopped there.George said, "Ms. Jent stayed here when she left her home. I think she's probably here now."Ethan had not slept the entire night. He desperately got out of the car and tightly frowned as he looked around at the extremely poor housing condition. He thought, 'How can she stay here?!'This staircase is full of dust. And I can feel that this building is extremely unstable. This kind of housing should already be considered a dangerous building. Yet, there are still people living here.'Madelyn came out of the bathroom and dried her hair. She then removed the sof

Leyton and George had already left when Madelyn returned after taking the call. Now, only Ethan and Madelyn were in the tiny apartment.Ethan noticed Madelyn's expression was not great. So, he asked, "What's wrong?"Madelyn evasively replied, "My father asked about what happened last night. It's fine."Actually, she had been scolded by Hayson. Everyone would look unhappy after being scolded.Madelyn continued, "Anyway, I've made some pancakes. Do you want to eat some? It's still very early now. You can take a nap after you eat."Ethan affectionately looked at her as he said, "Okay."After they had their breakfast, Madelyn brought Ethan to her bedroom.The room was clean and tidy. There was even a huge doll on the bed that was very eye-catching.Madelyn made the bed for him and said, "It isn't as comfortable as your home, and the condition here is quite poor. Please bear with it."Ethan asked, "What'll you do when I nap?"Madelyn answered, "I still have two hours of free time.
Chapter 403
As soon as Madelyn arrived at the school, many classmates greeted her. Even Mya asked her about what happened last night. She did not expect that just because she had not gone home for the night, many people would know about it.Other than Mya, many people that Madelyn had never interacted with before pretended to be concerned and asked if she was fine.The Math Olympiad competition was around the corner. Madelyn did not want to dwell on certain matters. She just wanted to focus on her own matters.In the SereneCare Hospital, Donna was eating fruits as she repeatedly made phone calls. She pondered, 'I know Ethan doesn't always mean what he says. It appears that he doesn't care about me. But deep down, he still cares.'He merely used the Madelyn girl to make me angry. Or else, he wouldn't have stayed here until so late last night. If the first time doesn't count, what about the second time?'Is it so difficult for him to admit he still has feelings for me? I won't lose the three-ye

Ethan glanced at his phone before declining the call without hesitation. He then blocked the number. He coldly said, "Just ignore any matter regarding her from now on."Leyton nodded, "Got it." He thought, 'That's right. Ms. Jent is so much better than Donna.'Donna made countless phone calls. She was sure that Ethan had blocked her number. However, she still believed that he would come to her if something happened to her.Donna thought about something and called a nurse over. She handed her a phone number and said, "Do as I say."The nurse stared at Donna. After she dialed the number, the call was disconnected within half a minute. She said, "The phone number doesn't exist.""Impossible!" Donna stomped her foot. She then pressed the number on her phone and checked it before dialing it again. She could hear, "The number you've dialed doesn't exist. Please verify the number and try again."Donna cursed, "Damn it!" She then quickly dialed another number in her phone contact. It was

Before this, the people from the same school did not really care about Madelyn being with Ethan. But the situation last night gained a lot of attention. More and more people were paying attention to her. In the past, no one in the school would care about Madelyn.Madelyn understood Ethan was concerned about her and wanted her to go home early. However, she did not want this special treatment. She did not want any rules to change because of her. She merely wanted to finish her remaining academic term in peace.At the school gate, she noticed flashes of camera lights directed toward her. She was being photographed. Several reporters rushed to her and pointed their microphones at her, "Ms. Jent, can you tell us when you started dating the CEO of the Arnold Corporation?""The CEO of the Arnold Corporation never appears in public. When did you two meet?""Last night, the CEO of the Arnold Corporation caused such a big commotion just to find you. Where did you go?"Madelyn remained sile

The reporters kept on taking pictures of the car.Jadie handed a bottle of water to Madelyn as she worriedly said, "You don't look well. Are you okay?"Madelyn took the water, but she did not drink it. She responded, "I'm fine." She looked out the window and asked, "Where are we going?"Jadie did not know either. She asked the person beside her, "Zach, where are we going?""Madelyn, where'd you like to go?" Zach threw the question back to Madelyn. It seemed like he was hinting at something. Madelyn put the water bottle at her side. The direction they were heading was likely toward the Jent residence.Madelyn noticed that. Zach looked at her through the rearview mirror again. She looked away and faintly said, "Drop me off by the roadside. He'll come and pick me up later."Zach disagreed, "I don't feel comfortable leaving you alone out there. It's not even nine o'clock yet. Let's go back to Southern Haven Villas, and we can discuss anything else later." He did not allow Madelyn to

"Pastina is ready."Rosario carried two bowls of pastina out of the kitchen and put them in front of Madelyn, "I know you don't like to eat cilantro, so I used chicken as the main ingredient."Madelyn looked at the vegetable in the bowl and said, "Rosario, I don't eat spinach."Rosario was stunned for a moment. She smiled as she patted her forehead, "I'm so forgetful. It's been so long since you last came back. I forgot about that. I'll make you another bowl."Madelyn was a little disappointed. In the past, Rosario would never forget about Madelyn's preferences."It's fine, I can just pick them out." Madelyn spread a tissue on the table before picking out the spinach.It became quiet suddenly.Madelyn put away her books. When she turned her head, she saw Zach picking out the spinach for her. He said, "You're still so picky."Rosario chimed in, "Actually, Madelyn is just like Madam. Madam doesn't like to eat spinach, too."Madelyn did not respond to that. She just lowered her h
