Chapter 938
Madelyn had all the servants clear the room, leaving only Margaret. Margaret brought a glass of water and set it in front of Grace. Then, Madelyn asked gravely, "When did Mya disappear?"Grace sobbed, "It's been almost half a month. That night, Mya slept at home after she took her medication. But the next morning, she was gone! The maid found a note on the table saying Mya had been taken away. We already reported it to the police, and they said they'd do their best to find her. But until now... we still don't know where Mya is."We paid to have people investigate, and they found out that the person who took her away is someone we can't afford to provoke: a man from the Turner family named Fred. He's a prison warden in Ventropolis Prison. Mya may be a bit simple-minded and easily bullied, but she has never gone out to provoke anyone."We have no idea how she could have crossed paths with him. Ms. Jent, I really have no other choice. If there were another way, I would not have come to

Madelyn hung up the phone without answering. She sent another message: [Sorry, wrong number.]Shortly after, Madelyn's phone ran out of battery and shut down. When she tried to charge it, the charging port was broken; it did not respond when connected to her phone.Madelyn heard a vibration from the bedside table and was not sure what it was. She opened the drawer and found the pink phone Zach had given her. She quickly turned it off, grabbed her old phone, and asked a servant to take it for repair.At 6:00 p.m., Zach finished his last meeting of the day and stepped out of the meeting room. He hurriedly checked his phone. Apart from some news notifications and a few insignificant calls, nothing else was incoming."What has she been doing all day in the villa?" Zach murmured.While following behind Zach, Kevin could tell from his displeased tone that something was amiss. Once inside the CEO's office, Zach threw the meeting documents onto his desk.Kevin reported, "Ms. Jent had not

Madelyn was not surprised that Zach and Cecilia were together in this life. Cecilia's appearance made her see everything clearly. Zach had promised Madelyn that he would marry her. Yet, they stayed the same throughout both her lifetimes since Zach taught Cecilia to be like this.Now that they were standing side by side, Madelyn thought they were a match made in heaven. She ignored Cecilia's provoking stare. It was as if Cecilia's smug expression was saying, "You're trash, Madelyn. Zach still stayed by my side throughout the two lifetimes!"However, Madelyn did not care at all. She showed no emotion when Zach married Cecilia. She was even willing to move out of the house and give Cecilia everything she had.Madelyn was not Hayson's biological daughter, after all. Hence, the Southern Haven Villas and Azure Corporation did not belong to her. The only thing that she cared about was the pictures her mother had saved.Madelyn stepped aside and left them without saying another word. She t

"Zach, there's not a single person in the world who doesn't want power. Don't forget who helped you earn back the money you donated to charity," Cecilia reminded Zach.Before Zach revealed that he had a fiancee, everyone assumed Cecilia would be his wife. Had the reporters not revealed pictures of Madelyn holding a child at the mall, Cecilia would have been a hot topic for the public.Zach was oddly quiet and asked, "Are you sure about that?"Cecilia replied, "Of course, whether it's you from the previous life or the present, you've remained as ambitious as ever. You were able to get rid of Madelyn for profit the last time, and you will do the same in this life. However, this time, I might need to wait a little longer. But it's okay; there is still time. Regardless, whether you marry Madelyn or not, it doesn't affect me much." 'A useless woman is doomed to be abandoned by fate. Madelyn could not escape this destiny in both her lifetimes,' Cecilia thought.At six in the morning, M

Madelyn had yet to see Zach standing outside with a sullen expression."The woman sitting downstairs might be the future lady of the Southern Haven Villas. Besides, I am your employer, and you are my employee. You will just do what you are paid for. There is no need to care for my affairs. Just do what you're supposed to do!" Madelyn shouted.This time, Margaret had crossed the line. She did not know what it felt like to be poisoned by someone you were close to. Having learned the lesson, Madelyn would not repeat it. It was Zach and Rosario who gave her that valuable lesson. Now, she would rather end up alone than be betrayed by someone else."Why are you making such a big ruckus in the morning!" Zach's cold voice suddenly rang. This made Margaret jump while Madelyn reacted calmly. However, she could not hide the disgust in her eyes when she stared at Zach.Cecilia spoke softly behind Zach, "I'll wait for you downstairs."Zach nodded. Madelyn met with Cecilia's provoking stare as

Madelyn said it through gritted teeth. The more she looked at him, the more she grew emotional. Then, Madelyn got off the bed, put on her slippers, and left the room. After that, she walked toward the drawing room and shut the door.Margaret heard the door slam shut, scaring both Dalton and her. Madelyn clutched her chest and felt out of breath. Margaret swiftly put Dalton down and walked over. She asked worriedly, "Oh my! What's happening, Ms. Jent? Is your heart in pain? I'll call the family physician for you."Madelyn grabbed at Margaret's shirt and answered, "I'm fine. I'll be okay in a moment."However, Madelyn knew deep down that Zach was forcing her to compromise. He was forcing her to marry him.Downstairs, Cecilia sat at the dining table, eating the food that the servants prepared. The dishes were all Madelyn's favorites."Your chef is quite good," Cecilia complimented, looking at Zach. She smiled and reassured him, "Don't worry, she'll think this through. If you treat he

Cecilia's eyes flashed in excitement. She had been trying to prove something through countless probing and mocking. In both lifetimes, Madelyn was still the same. She had everything handed to her on a silver platter.However, in this lifetime, Madelyn did not wish for anything. She only wanted a peaceful life. She looked for Ethan's child and raised him to make amends for her mistakes toward him. He would not have been in that incident if it were not for her. It was like what Cecilia said in her past life: she was a walking disaster. Everyone around her would always be in danger and eventually leave her one by one.Compared to Cecilia, Madelyn was much calmer. She replied, "Reincarnated? I don't understand what you're saying, Ms. Samford. Nevertheless, I still want to thank you for sending my brother back. That child is a fake, and Zach adopted him because he thought the child was pitiful. As for the rumors that the media had spread, you don't need to worry about them."When Madelyn

Margaret disappointedly looked at Zach, who she thought was foolish.She pondered, 'Can't he tell this woman's obvious act of trying to cause conflict between him and Ms. Jent? Can't he see that this woman has ill intentions?'Margaret sighed, "Mr. Jardin, I have to tell you that Ms. Jent does dislike you. You brought a female outsider back and even said such harsh words to Ms. Jent. It would probably be impossible if you hoped for her to change her mind in the future."She never wanted to be close to Dalton. She was afraid she wouldn't be able to leave him if she got attached to him. Now, with everything that has happened, the only feeling Ms. Jent has for you is disappointment. And she's even more inclined to leave now."Margaret believed that in a "martial dispute," the child would end up getting hurt. She had lived a long life and knew a thing or two about human relationships.She thought, 'Ms. Jent looks like she cares about Dalton. But she's never acknowledged him as her chi
