NovelEnglishMadelyn was sitting in the last row. Lem, who sat in front of her, would occasionally turn around to chat with her.
Just then, Madelyn's phone vibrated. She received a photo from an unknown number. A chill was sent down her spine when she clicked on the photo. Her hands trembled uncontrollably.
The person in the photo was lying on a white hotel bed. He was not wearing a shirt with his hand resting on his forehead. The time and date displayed in the photo were not too long ago. The photo was taken during her long school break last year.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEthan's words at that time flooded her mind, ‘Don’t you want to ask why am | going there? "I'l be back very soon. I'll go there for around three days." "Madelyn, what are you looking at? You seem so engrossed.” Lem's voice interrupted her thoughts.
Madelyn dropped her phone on the ground. She panicked and felt suffocated. She was afraid that someone might see what was on her phone. Luckily, her phone battery was knocked out, and the screen blackened out.
Many people looked at her. They rarely saw Madelyn in such a panicked state.
Lem noticed Kennedy was looking at him and Madelyn. He quickly explained, "I didn't scare her." Kennedy asked, "Is your phone broken?" After Madelyn inserted the battery back into her phone, she quickly regained her composure and said, "It's not broken, luckily." Actually, the phone's screen had a visible crack on it. There were signs of damage around the edges, too.
Madelyn needed a lot of time to process what had just happened. She thought, "Who was the person who sent me the photo? Why'd someone send me such a picture? We familiarized ourselves with the exam venue today. The exam is scheduled for the day after tomorrow. | don't want this incident to affect me." However, Madelyn could not stop imagining things. That was because she did not believe Ethan would betray her.
She turned on her phone but did not have the courage to unlock it to see the photo again.
Jadie walked toward her because her emotional state and behavior were clearly not right. She seemed very agitated. Jadie asked, "Madelyn, are you feeling unwell?" Madelyn answered, "I'm fine." Jadie slowly continued, "But... during the past few classes, whenever the teachers called your name, you were daydreaming and didn't respond.” Many people around Madelyn were looking at her. She seemed to be on the verge of breaking down. She stood up and brushed her long hair as she said, "I'm really fine. Please help me tell the teacher that | need to leave for a while. I'll leave the classroom now." Madelyn grabbed her backpack without taking any books with her and left.
Mya, who walked toward Madelyn, wanting to ask her questions, shouted, "Madelyn!" As Madelyn was walking, she ignored the voice coming from behind. She then began to run. She was very confused right now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPerhaps no one might understand why a simple photo could affect her emotions so much. It was all because of the terrible things that happened in her past life. The evidence that Zach cheated on her in her past life had started with these kinds of photos.
She thought she had escaped Zach. However, she did not expect the same thing to happen to her for the second time.
She felt it was laughable. But at the same time, she felt a sense of sorrow too. She thought, ‘They lied to me! Both Zach and Ethan lied to me! Why?! | thought Ethan wouldn't do that." Madelyn ran for a very long time. She then finally stopped in the school garden. She panted as she sat on the wooden bench.
She did not know how to calm herself down. She was traumatized by Cecilia's provocation and Zach's infidelity.
She could not accept being cheated on for a second time, even though she and Ethan were not married.
