The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 486

Madelyn and Ethan stared out of the car window at the passing scenery. Neither of them spoke. They soon reached the Arnold residence. When the car stopped, Ethan hurriedly got out before Madelyn. He was acting strangely distant, unlike before.

Madelyn did not know what was wrong with him. She then got out of the car and walked toward the entrance. As soon as they entered the house, a servant approached, “Mr. Arnold, Ms. Jent, the food’s ready.”

Ethan did not even spare the servant a glance and just went straight upstairs. He seemed really upset, but nobody knew why. The servant took Madelyn’s school bag and asked, “Ms. Jent, what’s wrong with Mr. Arnold?”

Madelyn shook her head, “Serve the meal on a tray. I’ll take it upstairs to him later.” The servant responded, “Okay.”

Madelyn carried the meal and went to the study. She knocked on the door. But she did not get a response. So, she just entered the room anyway. The vintage study room was filled with a thick tobacco smell. Ethan was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a freshly lit cigarette in his hand.

Upon hearing the movement, Ethan did not turn his head. Madelyn placed the meal on the table and said, “If you’re busy with work, I won’t disturb you. Remember to eat. I’ll leave now.”

Ethan said, “Wait!” Madelyn was nervous when she heard his voice, “Is there anything else?” She placed her hands in front of her with her fingers interlocked.

Ethan threw the cigarette butt and turned around. His gaze was deep as he looked at her, “I looked into your father’s adopted son.”

Madelyn thought, ‘Zach?’

The calm atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense. Upon seeing her remain quiet, the cold aura emanated from Ethan became even colder, “About him… Do you have anything that you want to tell me?”

When he walked to her, Madelyn could feel a sense of oppression. The coldness and pressure from Ethan left Madelyn feeling trapped. He seemed to be trying to read something from her eyes. But she was too composed and revealed nothing.

Madelyn asked him, “What did out?”

Ethan stared at her closely. He was afraid that he might push her too far and make her feel terrified. So, he softened his tone, “What do you think?

Madelyn responded, “If you want to investigate him, I have nothing to say about it. You don’t have to tell me all this too. I’m going to eat now.” Ethan said, “I’m planning to acquire the Azure Corporation and remove him from his position.”

Madelyn stopped at the door. She faintly replied without turning her head, “This is your decision. And it has nothing to do with me. Do as you please. Ethan pondered in his mind, ‘Does she truly not care, or is she putting on an act?’

‘Madelyn, you attempted suicide just to be with him! Did you only get together with me because he didn’t want you? You cared so much about him that you were willing to throw your life away. But you’ve never cared about me. And you don’t even care to explain at all!’

When the servant went to collect the plates and utensils, she saw a mess on the floor.

Ethan, who rarely smoked, was sitting on the couch. The floor was full of cigarette butts. And the room was filled with an irritating tobacco smell.
