"She hasn't been to class? What has she been doing?" Ethan inquired.Leyton replied, "She's been in the school's art studio. But as far as I know, she has also applied for the entrance exam for Ventropolis College of Art. The exam is scheduled for next month. If she scores first, she'll get a direct admission offer. However, this year, over three million students applied for art majors, but there are only 230 spots available. Getting the top score won't be easy.""Regardless of whether she gets in or not, even if she doesn't further her study, I can afford to take care of her. Drive back to the company."In the classroom, as Madelyn walked down the hallway, she overheard a group of students whispering."Madelyn is really lucky! I thought she and Ethan were done, but in the blink of an eye, she's become the future Mrs. Arnold. I wonder how many people envy her now.""Didn't Ethan Arnold cheat on her? She hasn't been to school for a while, and who knows if she used some method to se

"Thanks," Madelyn replied.Kennedy interjected, "These notes won't really help you. Like Mr. Newton says, practice more, and if you don't get it, just ask.""Okay."The bell for the next class rang.But Madelyn had her own secret plans. She believed there was more than one way to reach her goal. What she was doing, she did for herself.As soon as the first class ended, Madelyn sneaked away to the same spot she'd been visiting a lot lately. 'I can make it happen in a month...'..."Engaged? Wishful thinking," Zach muttered as he ripped the newspaper in his hand, tearing the picture of Ethan and Madelyn right down the middle."Where's Donna Jolie?" he asked.Kevin replied, "She's doing what you told her. We should catch the news this afternoon. But Donna shelled out a lot to hire a hacker to trace our last phone call. She wants to figure out who's pulling the strings behind the scenes."Zach removed his gold-rimmed glasses, leaned back, and crossed his left leg over the right o

Donna's TV interview caused quite a stir in Ventropolis. People were talking about it everywhere.The reporter asked, "Ms. Jolie, you've known Ethan Arnold, the CEO of Arnold Corporation, for a long time. Why didn't you two get together later on? Were there reasons for this?"Donna said, "Indeed, there were reasons..."Donna on TV looked tired. She seemed different from her usual glamorous self. Now, she looked like someone who needed help from others.The PR department quickly told Ethan about this.People were sitting in front of their TVs, eager to hear what Donna would say next. But suddenly, the live broadcast was cut off. The screen turned all fuzzy, and nobody could see anything."What a buzzkill! Why did they cut it off?""Who knows! If the CEO really liked her, why did he get engaged to someone else?""Poor Donna. They were together for so long, and now they've broken up. Maybe someone got in the way?"At Ventropolis News, some men in black suits came in without sayin

Ethan wanted to see Donna behind bars. She fiercely resisted as the police led her away, screaming and wrestling with the officers. However, despite her determined efforts, Donna couldn't break free. They restrained her with handcuffs and escorted her directly to the police station.Leyton got back to Ethan within an hour.Arnold Corporation soon released an official statement: [Regarding Donna Jolie's statements in today's live broadcast, our investigation has verified them as false. We urge everyone to exercise caution. Any further attempts to spread false information about Arnold Corporation will result in legal action, and those held responsible will be accountable for any harm inflicted upon Arnold Corporation. Immediate legal actions have already been set in motion in response to today's groundless accusations against our CEO.]The statement also announced the engagement of Ethan Arnold, the CEO of Arnold Corporation, to Madelyn Jent, the daughter of the Jent family. Their e

Ethan had cooked a few dishes, just enough for the two of them."Have a taste of this," Ethan said, handing Madelyn a piece of honey-flavored pork rib.Madelyn took a bite and exclaimed, "Yummy!""Yeah, I made all your favorites," he replied with a smile.Madelyn thought, 'His cooking is always delicious.'After dinner, Madelyn went to Ethan's study. He was working on important stuff for his company, and she quietly focused on her practice papers. Even though she wasn't going to regular classes, she had her own study plan. The current class progress didn't matter much to Madelyn. She had a goal to boost her grades in just two months, and it was proving to be a bit tough.But because she already had a good foundation in her subjects, it wouldn't be too hard, just a little challenging.Ethan had his headphones on, listening to Leyton's report. "Mr. Arnold, about the dress for the engagement, should we arrange for the designer to meet with Miss Jent this weekend for her to choose?

"I say I'll always be by your side forever. If you don't like him, you shouldn't force yourself."Madelyn sat up, "I think I do like him, but it's just taking me some time to get used to it. I... I don't know. What about you? Do you like him?""It's your choice. As long as you like him, I will accept him.""I don't even know if this is the right thing to do. What about you... did you like Father? How did you get together in the first place?"In an instant, the figure by the bed didn't answer and disappeared.The next morning, the first rays of light broke through.These past few days had been calm, without a single ripple. However, the calmer it was, the harder it was for Madelyn to find peace of mind.This weekend, Madelyn had hoped to sleep in, but the commotion of a servant knocking at her door disturbed her."Miss Jent, it's time to wake up. Mr. Arnold is waiting for you downstairs.""Alright," Madelyn mumbled groggily, then quickly turned over and went back to sleep.The

"Am I still your father? For something as big as your engagement, you didn't even bother to call me?" Hayson asked.Madelyn mumbled her response.Hayson rarely talked to her, and lately, he had only called a few times. Usually, Zach handled things when there were issues. 'He must be calling just to look like a good father in front of Ethan.'She said quickly, "I'm sorry, Father. I was gonna tell everyone in a few days. How are you and Jasmine?""We're good. But you should have hid your engagement from me. We'll talk more when I'm back.""I..." Madelyn's heart raced, and she looked at Ethan for help.Ethan reached for her phone and smiled, "I've got this. You go freshen up."Madelyn nodded without saying anything and handed her phone to Ethan. Then, she rushed into the bathroom and splashed her face with cold water to wake herself up completely. She splashed her face with cold water to wake herself up completely. At first, she thought Ethan was just making a casual remark about

The makeup artist asked, "Miss Jent, do you have any specific makeup you want?""Specific makeup?""Yeah, it's for your engagement. We're trying out your makeup look.""I see." Madelyn looked down, lost in thought.The makeup artist explained, "We're going to try out your whole look, including your hairstyle, for your engagement. If you don't like something, we can change it.""Okay."Madelyn's skin was already flawless, so she didn't need much foundation. Her soft features and creamy skin had a special charm. She had a natural beauty that could wow anyone, like a beautiful rose, both attractive and elegant. Her body, style, and clothes made her stand out easily. It was clear that as she got older, she would make a lot of guys go wild.It took two whole hours for styling and makeup, and by the end, Madelyn was almost falling asleep."Miss Jent, you can take a look now. Do you like it?""It's alright. What do you all think?"Both the stylists and makeup artists were in awe of
