Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince Madelyn accepted the gift, she felt suffocated. She did not know why she was not as happy as she had expected. She still could not figure out the reason behind it. Maybe... she had been too hasty with this decision.
Jadie put down her cutlery and said, "I'm full, Zach." Zach took her bowl and poured some soup into it before saying, "Drink some soup to avoid getting hungry again at night." Jadie nodded, "Okay." Madelyn sat not far away from them. A hand holding a bow! of soup stretched before her, "The soup is good. Try it." Madelyn raised her head and looked at Zach. Her heart started racing as she thanked him, "Thank you... brother." "Mhm," Zach smiled, but Madelyn could see the rage in his eyes. This made her anxious.
Perhaps Ethan was in a good mood; he proceeded to hug Madelyn. He then declared his ownership over her, "This soup is sweet; she doesn't like sweet soups. How can you not know this?" With just a sentence, the smell of conflict started to emanate.
"Ethan, you've had too much to drink. Let me help you to your room so you can rest, okay?" Madelyn asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZach was a dark, selfish, and vengeful man. He was most adept at using underhanded tactics. He had planned for the downfall of the Amold family in her past life. Hence, he was able to gain complete control of the Arnold Corporation. Although Madelyn did not know how he did it, she did not want that tragedy to happen again. She was sure Zach had planned the truck incident that almost caused their accident. Even though he was not as powerful as the Arnold family, he could still easily bring them down regardless of their position.
Zach said indifferently, "Really? It seems Madelyn hasn't been home for quite some time. I've almost forgotten what she likes to eat." "Logically speaking, Madelyn should call you her brother, and | should call you my brother, too. However, since you're not a Jent, | see no need for that. Though, | will drink a toast to your long-standing relationship with Madelyn," Ethan said.
Ethan signaled the servant by his side, and they instantly poured a cup to Zach. Jadie held Zach's arm worriedly and advised him, "Zach, you can't drink since you still need to drive." Hayson saw what Jadie did and furrowed his brows. In the end, he did not say anything. Ethan continued, "It's just a glass. If Mr.
Jardin can't stomach his alcohol, we have chauffeurs at the Amold residence. They can send you home. You can even stay for the night." Their gazes met, and the sense of conflict grew stronger. Madelyn swiftly stood up and said, "Ethan, you can't drink anymore.
Did you forget about what the doctor said? Your injuries have yet to heal. I'll get worried if it gets infected again.” Ethan turned to Madelyn and stared at her. His gaze was drunken yet full of love. He smiled and replied, "Alright, as you wish.
"There is another matter; it's about the clauses offered regarding the merger between the Arnold Corporation and the Azure Corporation. | think Mr. Jardin would best consider it since not just any company is worthy of working with the Arnold Corporation!" Ethan added.
