nothing else to do.
Madelyn just continued wallding and rarely responded to what Mya said. She did not want Mya to get too close to
her, since she believe

Randall get the packet of caustic soda?”
Ethan touched the watch on his wrist. He lowered his head and thought deeply, “Find out who’d seen Randall these
past few days and report back to me within half an hour.”
He thought, “This morning, Madelyn’s expression was off after she saw this newspaper. Obviously, she knew
something. She appears to be afraid and shows resistance toward him. Otherwise, why’d she leave the Jent family

Leyton nodded, “Okay.”
Soon, he found out the information.
Surveillance cameras captured a black car that arrived at Ventropolis First Prison. And the person who got out of
the car was Zach. Ethan thought, ‘It’s really him.‘
Leyton said, “According to the surveillance footage, from the time he entered to the time he left, it was a total of
one hour. What’s strange is that he met Randall alone in the interrogation room. And during that one hour, other
than his assistant, no one knew what they’d talked about.
“After that, he died the next day. This is too suspicious.”
Ethan lowered his head and chuckled sarcastically, “So ambitious! I should’ve guessed earlier that he wasn’t that
simple. All the troubles that Madelyn had encountered before this are probably related to him.
“Find out what he’s been doing in the Jent family all these years…”

Mya to threaten and blackmail ber, so she did not dare to make friends with anyone
Madelyn was afraid that if she grew attached to someone, that person would become her weakness.
Ethan watched Madelyn until she entered the school and disappeared from his sight. He then smiled and looked
away, “Who’s that girl?”
Leyton responded, “She’s from the Harper family.”
Ethan asked, “Which Harper family?”
Leyton explained, “Not long ago, I unintentionally got to know that Mrs. Arnold Sr. recently hired an expert in animal
husbandry. Coincidentally, that expert happens to be the father of this friend of Ms. Jent’s.”
Ethan smiled faintly, “It’s the first time I’ve seen that look on Madelyn’s face. She wanted to be angry but couldn’t
show it. This Harper girl has done something that I didn’t dare to do.”
Leyton said, “Mr. Arnold, should we investigate this person? I’m worried that she might have impure motives for

Ethan replied, “No need. Just drive. Madelyn can recognize that herself.”
If Madelyn didn’t like Mya, she would not have behaved like that just now.
Moreover, for the past few days when Ethan dropped her at school, he had seen Mya waiting for Madelyn every
day…
He believed it was good that Madelyn had a friend.
What Ethan feared the most was Madelyn being lonely at school. She was an introverted person and did not like to
talk, and he could not always accompany her. He was also afraid that if she continued to act this way, she would
end up like he used to be.
He then thought about the scar on Madelyn’s hand, ‘Even though she tried to hide it, I still saw it. A lot of the things
that happened to her were related to that adopted son of the Jent family… It seems like things are more complex

In the office of the CEO of the Arnold Corporation, Ethan stood in front of the floor–to–ceiling window. Leyton asked
