Chapter 943
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

Madelyn's return to the studio surprised Clement.Everyone was captivated by her looks when she suddenly came into the studio. She looked very elegant, and she exuded a unique aura, looking gorgeous and fair. People there could not help but stare at Madelyn.Clement and Dorian saw Madelyn as soon as they walked out of the conference room after finishing the meeting. Coincidentally, the receptionist was approaching them.Clement raised his hand to interrupt the receptionist and said, "It's okay, I know her."Madelyn was quickly invited into the guest room. Dorian poured a cup of warm water and placed it in front of her, "I thought you'd never come back!"Clement sat on the sofa next to Madelyn, maintaining a distance. Madelyn looked around the studio, "I'm Prof. Monet's student. How could I not come back when all of you are here? Where's the professor?"Clement adjusted his glasses, "Prof. Monet is still taking on substitute teaching at the school as usual. It's been so long since

Madelyn turned around and saw Clement walk in carrying food. After a while, Dorian came in with a dozen beers, "Madelyn, you're finally back. How could I miss out on this?!"Madelyn responded, "Don't we still have to work overtime? Why are we drinking?"Dorian glanced at Clement before saying, "Recently, Clem and I have been sleeping in the studio. Our client's game is going to be launched by the end of the year. We've been putting in some extra effort for a while so that we can rest properly afterward. Also, we're trying to make some money. Now that it's vacation time, the prices are going up. If I don't work hard to save up for a down payment on a property, I'll have difficulty finding a wife."Madelyn had never had any financial concerns. Clement and Dorian had always envied her wealthy family background and that she could easily buy property in the city center of Ventropolis, something others might struggle to achieve in a lifetime.They only saw the outwardly glamorous aspects

Kevin thought, 'I'm surprised that Ms. Jent still hasn't moved on from Ethan after so long!'But it makes sense; compared to the living, it's the deceased who leave a more lasting impact on people emotionally.'Madelyn was stubborn. Although Kevin did not know exactly what happened. He could somewhat guess it. He could not imagine what happened after Cecilia went back to Southern Haven Villas with Zach last night. But he did not expect Madelyn to be the one who got kicked out of the villa.Zach was gripping the red jewel ring. The sharp edge of the gemstone stimulates Zach's wound which had not fully healed. Blood could then be seen on the bandage.Kevin asked, "Mr. Jardin, should we have someone take Ms. Jent back?!"Right after he said that, they saw Clement cover Madelyn's legs with a thin blanket. He sat down beside her and said, "I thought you went home."Clement, who was drunk, had actually sobered up when she left. He was standing on the third floor watching her for a very

Zach said, "Cecilia is still useful to me. I can guarantee she won't appear again in the future..."Madelyn lifted her head to meet his cold gaze, "That's none of my business! Whether you send her abroad or bring her back, it's none of my business. I've already forgotten everything that happened today. It's meaningless to bring it up now. That villa belongs to you. I was just staying there temporarily. I'll have Margaret remove my things from the villa tomorrow."Kevin stepped forward and frowned. His expression seemed to say she was not grateful.He said, "Ms. Jent, it's unavoidable for Mr. Jardin to attend social events. Cecilia is the Deputy CEO of Jardin Corporation. It was pre-planned for her to attend the event with Mr. Jardin. Mr. Jardin's stomach hasn't been well for a while. His stomach was just acting up last night. He hasn't eaten since you left...""That's enough!" Madelyn vigorously stood up and glared at him, "You got to where you are now because you're capable. Those

'How could he just dismiss everything he said and everything that had happened just like that?' Madelyn thought to herself."Zach Jardin, don't regret the words you said," Madelyn sounded cold and resolute.At this moment, Madelyn raised the fruit knife in her hand and thrust it toward Zach without hesitation. Kevin's eyes widened in shock as he immediately tried to grab Madelyn's wrist. However, he was too slow, and the sharp fruit knife had already pierced through Zach's neck.Zach felt a sharp pain and something warm flowing down his neck. He reached out to touch it and his fingertips were stained with fresh blood. The pain was nothing to him as the chill he felt inside overpowered it.Madelyn really wanted to kill him!"Mr. Jardin!" Kevin immediately took the fruit knife from Madelyn's hand and threw it aside.Zach raised his hand, signaling that he was fine.The wound was not very deep.Zach stood up from the sofa and he was almost a head taller than Madelyn. An icy, stron
