Semua Bab The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning: Bab 541 - Bab 550

"Are you leaving?" Madelyn's voice rang out.Ethan's eyes met hers, momentarily devoid of emotion. But as they trailed to her bandaged hand, a shadow of concern passed over his face. "...Our engagement will continue," he said slowly, choosing his words. "I was the one who proposed. To abruptly call it off now would tarnish my family's reputation. But," he hesitated, "I can't promise it will last indefinitely. From now on, your world is limited to school and home."Madelyn remained silent, her eyes fixed on him. Without a word, she moved to the table and gently placed the envelope she held onto its surface.In a calm tone, she said, "Your car broke down. It's in need of repairs. Your servant retrieved this envelope from inside." She paused. "Maybe consider drinking less. I'm heading to my room."She began to walk away when Ethan's voice stopped her. "Wait."Madelyn turned around. "Did you need something else?""Don't you want to know what's in there?" Ethan asked."It's your pers

Madelyn was transported back to a day of memory in her past life. A day when the name Cecilia Samford held profound significance. Their first meeting had been under Cecilia's orchestration at a café just below the grand Jardin Corporation building.During that time, Ventropolis had become a bustling hub of economic activity. Immense skyscrapers ruled the skyline, most of which echoed with the undertone of Jardin Corporation's dominance.The air was thick with heat, just as it was now. There was a slight, pungent smell wafting from the hot asphalt roads under the midday sun.Cecilia, at the time, had possessed wavy, vibrant hair that cascaded to her shoulders, secured in a simple ponytail. Every ounce of her screamed dominance and power.Facing someone like Cecilia, Madelyn couldn't help but feel insecure. Cecilia, after all, was the primary aide to her husband. A woman who seamlessly blended grace, assertiveness, and allure. Madelyn found herself wondering if any man could truly re

When Madelyn approached, Ethan hung up his phone.The weather outside was warm, and many students had already finished their exams and were being picked up by their parents. Madelyn clutched her pencil case against her forehead and quickly opened the front passenger door, hopping into the car.Inside the car, it was pleasantly cool. Ethan handed her a bottle of cold water. "Just finished your exam. How do you feel?"Madelyn took a sip, and the heat that clung to her body quickly faded away. "Not too bad, not as hard as I imagined."Ethan picked her up and drove to the pre-booked photography studio.Madelyn rarely had her picture taken throughout her life, and this was one of the very few times. By the time the session was over, she was exhausted, and her makeup was still on as she cuddled with a pillow in the car, dozing off.As Ethan drove, he noticed her body tilting toward him. He reached out to support her face. When they hit a red light, he pulled over to the side of the roa

The number of attendees from the Arnold family was not extensive. Ethan's father, Owen, was notably absent, and the reason behind his absence remained a mystery to those outside the Arnold family. However, nobody dared to ask or gossip about the most prominent family in Ventropolis. In high society circles, everyone knew about the dramatic divorce between Frida Young and Owen Arnold.Owen had two brothers and a sister, all of whom were at the event today. They usually managed different parts of the Arnold Corporation and rarely appeared in public. Madelyn didn't often cross paths with them in her daily life.Madelyn greeted each of them one by one and received quite a few gifts. She passed these gifts on to the accompanying servers. The total value of these gifts could easily cover the down payment on a luxury apartment in Ventropolis.Materially, Ethan spared no expense when it came to Madelyn. She even knew the combination to the safe in his room, which contained nothing but gold

Evelyn excused herself from the engagement party early and went back to the Arnold residence. George handed her an envelope containing a document, saying, "Someone just said Ethan forgot to give this to you. The contents inside require your personal attention."Evelyn looked puzzled. "Is he learning to keep secrets from me now? You can all leave; I'll take a look at it by myself."After the servants had left, only Marta, who had been with Evelyn for many years, remained by her side.Evelyn sat down on the couch and opened the document. She took out a medical checkup report with Madelyn's name on it. When she reached the last section, her eyes widened, and her breath quickened. "This..." Even the hand holding the report trembled."What's wrong, Mrs. Arnold Sr.?" Marta noticed that something was seriously amiss with Evelyn, possibly a sign of a heart attack. She quickly retrieved a bottle of pills and gave one to Evelyn.Evelyn's breathing gradually steadied. Marta picked up the sca
