Chapter 172
The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning
Forrest grabbed Madelynâs ankle before she could pull her leg away.
He lifted his head, âAre you blind? Iâm trying to apply the cream on you.â His tone was so rude that she wondered if she had misheard him.
She pondered, âHe wants to help apply the medical cream on me? I donât believe it. Thereâs no way that a person who nearly choked me to death at school would be kind enough to apply medicine to me.
Who knows if the medicine is safe or not?
âIâve already learned my lesson the hard way once, and thatâs enough. Back then, whenever someone showed me a little kindness, Iâd just naively accept it.â
Forrest had already squeezed out the cream onto his palm. He was about to rub it on Madelynâs swollen ankle, but Madelyn immediately pulled her foot back.
She mumbled, âI-Iâm fine. I donât need the cream.â
She was afraid that he was planning to do something bad to her. She held onto the armrests of the chair, wanting to get up and leave.
Forrest slightly raised an eyebrow as he stood up. He casually lowered his head and grabbed a tissue from the side to wipe the cream off his hand while watching Madelyn.
As soon as she tried to take a step forward, she felt a sharp pain in her ankle, causing her to fall back down.
âYouâre so damn stubborn. If you donât want my help, forget it!â Forrest threw the crumpled tissue away with a cold expression.
At that moment, a clear voice could be heard from nearby, âForrest? What are you doing here?!
Madelyn looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yvonne rushing over in an elegant dress. Madelyn noticed the disdain and hatred in Yvonneâs eyes when she looked at Forrest, as if she was looking at a sworn enemy. It was the same kind of look that Madelyn herself had experienced from everyone in Class Six. She had never thought that Forrest would be looked at in that way.
After all, he was arrogant and rebellious.
Yvonne caringly asked Madelyn, âAre you okay? Are you injured?â
Madelyn shook her head, âIâm fine!â
Right after Madelyn said that Yvonne crossed her arms and instantly spoke with an air of authority, âForrest⦠Iâve said before that our family doesnât welcome you. Please leave immediately!â
When Adrian saw that, he quickly stopped chatting with his friends. He put down the glass of alcohol before approaching Yvonne. He pulled her aside and said, âYvonne, your mother invited him to the party.â
âWhy would my mom invite this kind of person to my birthday party?â
Forrest smirked. There was a hint of mockery in his eyes as he slowly said, âWhat, you got a problem with me?â
He continued, âI love seeing that angry look on your face knowing no matter how much you hate me, you canât do anything to me.â
âYouâre right, I do have a problem with you! I Even just looking at you disgusts me! How shameless of you to show up here. Get lost right now!â Yvonne yelled at him.
Just then, Frida came down from the study. The butler saw what was happening and was about to interfere. After all, many guests were present, and it would be embarrassing if they saw this scene.
Frida faintly said, âItâs just a few kids quarreling. You donât have to interfere. Carry on with your work!â
âOkay, madam.â
Frida was not in a hurry to leave and watched the situation instead, indifferently staring at Yvonne. She thought, âHer eyes do look like mineâ¦â
Adrian frowned, âYvonne, thatâs enough!â
âLet go of me!â Yvonne shook off his grasp and continued, âWhatâs the matter? Did I say something wrong? If you didnât hear it clearly, Iâll say it again. Listen carefully! Our family doesnât welcome you, the son of a homewrecker! Youâre as cheap as your sick mother, both shamelessly refusing to leave!
âGet lost!â
In a moment of silence, a terrifying aura emanated from Forrest.
