Even if he spent his money recklessly, he would not go broke.Zach said, "Words alone aren't enough!"Randall seemed to have grasped a glimmer of hope. He crawled to Zach's feet. He was unable to stand upright, "I can give you the land deed or a property transfer document. As long as you get me out of here, I promise you'll never run out of money.""That does sound enticing..." Zach put down the pen. He gave Randall a condescending look, "Well, I'm not greedy.

Mya, who had repeatedly called Madelyn's name, ran over to her. She was holding a basket of strawberries and smiling brightly. She ran so quickly that the wind ruffled her hair.

You're becoming more and more frightening."The phone call then ended with a beep sound.Zach put his phone away before turning around, "What's the matter?"Kevin reported, "The Arnold family has started investigating. Should we do something?"Zach walked to his desk and sat down. He leaned back in his chair with his fingers interlocked on his lap.

His gaze was intriguing as he replied, "I'm afraid he won't find out an

Madelyn responded, "Actually, leaving might be a good thing for him. I can't meddle in their issues. Forrest has done so much for me, and I'm going to repay it all slowly. As a friend, I genuinely hope he can start fresh and have a better life in his new place."She added, "From Ethan's point of view, in our current relationship, I shouldn't have any contact with all of you.

Adrian said to Madelyn, "What you saw between Forrest and Kayla that day, nothing actually happened. He just had a high fever and took a cold shower. You happened to stumble upon it and got the wrong idea."Timothy chimed in, "Exactly. After you kicked him out in the middle of the night, he called us. We even took him to the hospital in the early hours."Madelyn hadn't known about this, but she remained surprisingly calm upon hearing the explanation.Kayla clenched her fists and vented her frustration, "Yes! It's true that we didn't have sex. But so what? As long as he doesn't break up with me, we're still a couple."Then, addressing Madelyn, she said, "Madelyn Jent, don't be too smug. Your time with Ethan won't last." After saying this, she stormed off in a huff.Adrian was a little surprised when he saw Madelyn being so calm, "You don't seem to be angry at all!"Madelyn looked at him in the eyes, "Why should I be angry?"Adrian smiled faintly and did not answer.After everyon

Madelyn and Ethan stared out of the car window at the passing scenery. Neither of them spoke.They soon reached the Arnold residence. When the car stopped, Ethan hurriedly got out before Madelyn.
