Just then, Leyton suddenly pushed the door open and walked in, “It’s bad, Mr. Arnold. Mrs. Arnold. Sr. is sick.”
Ethan instantly opened his eyes and sat up. A hint of light flashed past his eyes as he asked, “What happened?”
Leyton responded, “It’s said that you need to return home right now, and Ms. Jent doesn’t need to follow you.”
Madelyn was confused as she asked, ” Why?”
Ethan looked at her. Leyton explained, “I’m not sure. But it’s Mrs. Arnold Sr.’s wish. However, the servant’s tone
didn’t seem unusual. Maybe she knows that that you have to leave the country and doesn’t want you to worry.”
Madelyn thought, ‘This guess seems to align with how she does things.” Ethan frowned. He felt that things were not
so simple. He asked, “How’s her current condition?”
Leyton responded, “The family doctor has already rushed over.” Ethan stood up. He grabbed his blazer and said to

Madelyn said, “I’ll go with you.”
Ethan replied, “Listen to me! It’s very late now, and there’s a time difference in Paris. If you don’t rest, your body
won’t be able to handle it. If Grandma’s condition isn’t good, I’ll call you.”
Madelyn nodded, “Remember to keep in touch with me using your phone. You don’t have to accompany me if you
can’t make it tomorrow.”
Ethan rubbed her head, “Don’t worry. I’ll be back early.”
Madelyn responded, “Okay.” Shortly after Ethan left, the hotel staff delivered Madelyn a room key to the
presidential suite.
It was almost eleven at night when Leyton finished seeing off the guests. Madelyn went to the room on the sixty-
sixth floor. When she opened the door, she saw a romantic scene with roses scattered all over the floor and candles
in the room. In the darkness, the lights were shining like stars.
Unfortunately, it was a pity that she was all alone on what was supposed to be their first night after their
engagement.
When she opened the bedroom door, she was amazed. There were nine thousand nine hundred and ninety- nine
red roses on the bed. Madelyn thought, ‘Did he… buy all the roses in the entire Ventropolis?’
The room was filled with a seductive aroma; it smelled very good. But the scent made her feel a bit dizzy. She
covered her head. Suddenly, her vision became somewhat blurry. In the dimly lit environment, she saw a figure
approaching…
Without saying a word, he pressed her against the floor-to-ceiling window and kissed her passionately…
When he let go of her, Madelyn felt her body was light. She was very confused. The man said, “Look closely and see
who I am!”

Madelyn shook her head and quickly pushed him away, “Don’t come near me. I’m feeling very hot. I want to take a
bath!”
The man bent down to softly nibble her earlobe. He then pulled down the straps of her dress from her shoulder. He
kissed her, “Shall I bathe you?”
His voice was extremely alluring and pleasant. Madelyn felt like she could not control her limbs. This feeling was like
being in a dream, where everything became surreal…
Madelyn squinted as she reached out to touch his face. Her vision was still blurry as she asked, “Who are you? Why
can’t I see your face clearly?
“I’m so hot. Would you mind unzipping me?”
