Chapter 296
The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning
The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 296 Zach didnât touch the late-night snacks on the table, but he didnât reach for them. Instead, he opened an unfinished file and kept working. Arenât these problems from the last semester? Youâre part of the Math Olympiad team already. You can handle these, right? If you canât, they might remove you from the team.â
He added, âIf youâre having trouble with your studies, should I find you a tutor?â When Jadie heard his words, her heart sank. âDoes he also think Iâm not as good as Madelyn? Iâm not pretty like her, and my family and grades arenât as good either?â
Zachâs voice grew stern. âIâve never thought that about you. When did you start feeling this way?â Jadie said, âBut itâs true. When Iâm around her, I feel like Iâm not as good. At school, people always see me as the adopted member of the Jent family. Even my friends only got close to me because of Madelyn!â
Zach reached out and gently touched her long hair. âJadie, youâre you, and Madelyn is Madelyn. You donât need to compare yourself to her. To me, youâre amazing. Itâs late; donât stress too much. Get some rest.â Jadie asked, âAnd what about you?â
Zach replied, âYou go sleep first. I still have some files to review.â Jadie persisted, âZach, you havenât rested for days. The future assets of the Jent family will all belong to Madelyn! Why are you pushing yourself so hard for the Jent family?â
Zachâs expression darkened, and he sternly warned, âWho told you these things? Who put these ideas in your head?â Jadie was taken aback, âIâm sorry, I was just worried about you and didnât want to see you so exhausted.â Zachâs tone grew sharper, âEnough! Donât say these things again in the future. Now go rest!â
âI⦠I understand.â Jadie hastily left the study, closed the door, and felt shaken by the encounter. Zach thought to himself, âJent family? Just the insignificant Jent familyâ¦â
George told Madelyn that Hayson would take Jasmine back to the Jent residence, so Madelyn naturally headed home.
âGeorge, we already have so many things. Thereâs no need to bring more,â Madelyn said. George replied, âItâs all Mr. Arnoldâs instructions. Heâs going on a business trip to Marisburg tomorrow for a week. This is also a gesture from him. Just accept it.â
Ethan had prepared many gifts that required three whole cars to fit. Madelyn silently made a note of it.
George accompanied her back to the Jent residence.
Outside the Jent residence, Hayson smiled warmly, as his palm sweaty. He walked up with a smile and said, âZach has told me about Madelynâs situation. I appreciate you all taking care of Madelyn these days. When I have the chance, I will personally thank Mr. Arnold.â
George had heard about Haysonâs way of doing things to some extent. He didnât have much fondness for someone like Hayson. He simply felt it was unfortunate that Madelyn was born into such an environment.
âNo need for thanks. My task is done as long as Iâve safely brought Miss Jent back, Goodbye!â
âGeorge, take care,â Madelyn called out. George nodded, got into the drove away. car, and Madelyn greeted Hayson, ââFather.ââ
Hayson glanced at her, his face devoid of a smile. Instead, he sternly questioned, âYou know Ethan Arnold. Why didnât you tell me about this?â
âIâm sorry, Father. At first, I didnât know about his identity,â Madelyn lied. âThen tell me, whatâs the whole story behind this?â
