NovelEnglishWhen Zach woke up and did not see Madelyn, he guessed that she had gone to the hospital. And with bodyguards by her side, he was not worried that she would run away. So, he returned to the company because he had work to do.
He entered the company and walked into the CEO's office. He saw Cecilia, whom he had not seen in a long time, sitting in his chair.

There were two tough decisions in a woman's life. The first was deciding to let go of a man they loved. And the other was cutting off the long hair she had for over ten years.
Zach did not seem surprised by Cecilia's presence. He raised his hand to check the time, "Three minutes, tell me your decision.” Cecilia took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer. She then lit one up and leaned back in the chair. The smoke covered her face. She, who had disappeared for many days, looked visibly slimmer. Even with a thick layer of foundation on her face, she could not conceal her haggard look.
She responded, "I helped you get to your current position. Is this how you repay me? "You married Yvonne, and at the same time, you're maintaining a relationship with Madelyn." Cecilia laughed, "You really do have deep feelings for her." She thought, ‘Zach will do anything for Madelyn. I'd witnessed in my past life how he looked like when he found out Madelyn died. Now, when | think about it, his foolish actions in my past life were extremely ridiculous." Zach responded, "You have one minute left." After she finished smoking the cigarette in her hand, Cecilia stood up and walked over to Zach. She took the initiative to corner him against the table. She toyed with the tie in her hand. The blue shade of this tie was not the color she liked. She said, "I don't mind that there's one more person. It's just Yvonne, anyway. She isn't worthy enough to bother me.
"I'm just like you; | have enough patience to win someone over. Beside your body, | want to win over your heart, too.
"You've stayed with the Jent family for over twenty years. So, why can't | keep staying by your side? After all, being closer to you means a better chance of winning you over. Who knows, maybe you might change your mind one day." Zach did not show much emotion on his face. He watched her hand misbehave and said, "Have you decided? I'm giving you a chance to be the Deputy CEO of Jardin Corporation. I'l only offer you once." "What's the fun in being a Deputy CEO?" Cecilia looked up and caressed his face, "I have everything now. | don't lack money.

In the hospital, Madelyn thought, ‘Since I've decided to temporarily adopt this child, | can't just ignore him now. | can't leave a child under three months old in the hospital without anyone to care for him.
"Also, | can use him as an excuse to stay in the hospital. It's better than going back to be with Zach." Madelyn took out the baby's clothes and hung them in the closet. Madelyn was not without any emotion when she looked at the clothes. She was actually extremely hurt. It made her keep thinking about her own child.
She smoothed out the creased clothes, folded them neatly, and put them away. She thought, ‘Someone might need these after | leave.' This was the ward prepared for the child. And whether he could survive would depend on tonight.
Madelyn cleaned the room. Around nine at night, she lay by the hospital bed and dozed off.
Suddenly, a nurse hurriedly walked in. Madelyn woke up in surprise and quickly stood up. A few nurses then pushed a hospital bed with wheels into the ward. One of the nurses said, "Miss, your child's temperature has dropped. He can now be transferred to the ward. A nurse will be here to specifically monitor the child's condition shortly. If the temperature remains stable, the child can be discharged in two weeks."
