Chapter 185
Madelyn gripped Zach’s wrist and said with a chilly tone, “Let’s head back quickly. Jadie is still waiting for you at home. I’m tired and want to rest.”
The next moment, Zach pinched both sides of her cheeks and whispered creepily into her ear, You’re still young and don’t know what love is. If you want to date, I won’t stop you. In fact, 1 can even help you find someone better.”
Madelyn closed her eyes and held back the anger that had welled up inside her. ‘It’s not the time to argue with him now,’ she thought.
“I-I got it.”
‘It seems like I really can’t have even a drop of alcohol in the future. After three drinks, I might get drunk and say something displeasing to Zach.’ 1

Madelyn was completely sober now. She remained silent and dared not to speak again along the way.
It was almost eleven o’clock when they returned home. The living room was pitch-dark. Madelyn followed Zach slowly as they entered the foyer. She fumbled along the wall for the light switch and turned it on.
Madelyn wanted to hurry upstairs, but behind her, Zach suddenly said, “Go make some pasta.”
Madelyn was about to climb the stairs, but heard such a rude request. “I-I’ll get Margaret to cook the pasta for you.”
“Don’t you understand what I’m saying?” Zach sat on the sofa and reclined back. He looked
somewhat unwell.
Madelyn turned around slowly. Looking at how Zach acted, she knew his stomach issue must have flared up again. It was a recurring issue for him. He was sensitive to raw and cold foods, and his habit of drinking on an empty stomach during social occasions often made it worse. Tonight, Zach had consumed a lot of seafood, including crabs.
‘No wonder he’s in pain.’
Madelyn resigned herself to the situation and turned to walk into the kitchen. She opened the fridge to check the available ingredients. It was already so late, so she refused to waste any time here as she was really exhausted.
‘He could have gone back, but he chose to come here. Lately, he’s been appearing at home more frequently. I can’t understand why he even moved out in the first place.”
Madelyn wished she would not have to meet him for the whole year.

pasta to cook a single serving. Once the pasta was ready, she carried it to the dining table and grabbed a fork to set it down. “The pasta is ready. I’m going to rest now.”
Madelyn took her cup of warm milk and wearily returned to her room. Before she had left home earlier, she had asked Margaret to install a new door lock, and it was in place now. She securely fastened the lock on the door from the inside so one could get into her room door from the outside.
Upon entering the walk-in closet, Madelyn opened the wardrobe and discovered her black gown placed inside. She took it out and noticed the smooth fabric and a familiar scent of freshly laundered fragrance. Thinking about the dirty clothes that Margaret had been holding this morning, she wondered, “Did I misunderstand something?”
However, Madelyn distinctly remembered locking the door from the inside. If Zach was not the one who entered her room, maybe Margaret was the one who had taken her clothes to wash them.
‘Actually, it’s not entirely my fault for misunderstanding him! Obviously, he’s the one who lacks proper boundaries between genders. He casually sneaked into my room and even told me to change my habit of falling in love with every guy I meet. Hmph! Why doesn’t he change his annoying habits instead? It’s truly repulsive!’
