Before this, the people from the same school did not really care about Madelyn being with Ethan. But the situation last night gained a lot of attention. More and more people were paying attention to her. In the past, no one in the school would care about Madelyn.
Madelyn understood Ethan was concerned about her and wanted her to go home early. However, she did not want this special treatment. She did not want any rules to change because of her. She merely wanted to finish her remaining academic term in peace.
At the school gate, she noticed flashes of camera lights directed toward her. She was being photographed. Several reporters rushed to her and pointed their microphones at her, "Ms. Jent, can you tell us when you started dating the CEO of the Arnold Corporation?" "The CEO of the Arnold Corporation never appears in public. When did you two meet?" "Last night, the CEO of the Arnold Corporation caused such a big commotion just to find you. Where did you go?" Madelyn remained silent.

She said, "What are you all doing? Don't come any closer. Quickly get out of our way." The reporter asked, "Talk to us, Ms. Jent." Other reporters chimed in, "That's right.” "Everyone!" A strong, powerful voice silenced the clamor. When people turned around to look at the man behind them and noticed his air of authority, they quieted down and made way for him.
Madelyn's face was pale. She had never experienced something like this before. Ethan and Hayson rarely faced interviews by reporters, too.
That man was Zach. Madelyn stared blankly at him as he walked toward her. She felt like she had traveled through time the moment she saw him. She thought she saw the figures of Zach from her past life and her current life overlapped. The memory from her past life suddenly resurfaced in her mind.
Madelyn could not remember the exact year, month, or day, but it was the second year of her marriage to Zach. At that time, to outsiders, Zach and Madelyn were an affectionate couple.
Zach would occasionally take her to events. Everyone knew she was his legitimate wife. It was also during that time that she first learned about Zach's mistress. Worse yet, he had been keeping the mistress for three years.
She remembered the sky at that time was as dark as it is now. It was drizzling. Zach was driving through the city with a starlet who looked like Jadie. Someone took a picture of them and posted it online. It became a trending topic within half an hour.
So, Madelyn went to Zach's company to make a scene. She saw that woman sitting on his lap. Zach explained that the girl had accidentally fallen. However, Madelyn did not believe him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe caused quite a scene at the CEO's office. Zach then lost his patience with her. So, he had security throw her out of the company building.
The reporters outside the building happened to witness that scene. Madelyn went crazy when the reporters asked her questions.
She then went on to hit them...
Ever since then, her marriage with Zach suffered significant damage beyond repair. When she suggested a divorce, Zach imprisoned her in a cage made of gold while he fooled around with other women...
Madelyn was lost in the memories of her past life. She could not clearly hear what Zach said to the reporters.
Zach then grabbed her wrist and shoved her into the car. Jadie sat in the front passenger seat.
