Chapter 355
The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning
The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 355 Madelyn had a hard time holding up Forrest as they left the school. The Arnold familyâs driver quickly drove up. Seeing Forrest in Madelynâs arms, he got out of the car right away and helped her get Forrest inside.
âWhy are you with him, Ms. Jent?â the driver asked. Madelyn frowned. âItâs a long story. Letâs just go home.â âIâm sorry, but Mrs. Arnold said that he canât come to the Arnold residence without permission.â
Madelyn remembered that rule and said, âOkay, letâs go to my place then.â
She put Forrest in the back seat and buckled him up. Then she got in the front and told the driver where to go. They pulled up to a small alley where she used to live, a building without an elevator.
Madelyn and the driver helped Forrest up the stairs. \
She found a key under the flowerpot, opened the door, and turned on the light. The house was surprisingly clean, and looked like someone had been staying there. There was even some half-eaten food on the table, covered with plastic wrap.
âCould he have been staying here?â Madelyn wondered. They helped Forrest into bed. The driver took Forrestâs shoes and socks off and tucked him in with a blanket.
Madelyn looked at Forrest lying on the bed. âI cannot care for him here. Does he have anyone else at home?â âMrs. Arnold is probably asleep by now, the driver replied.
âIâll figure something out. I canât just leave him here alone,â Madelyn said, her mind racing. âMrs. Arnold is so lovely and gentle but fragile. Forrest wouldnât want to trouble her.â
âDonât worry, Ms. Jent,â the driver reassured her. âForrest will be okay. We should head back, though. If Ethan finds out, he might get upset.â
âAlright, letâs go.â Madelyn glanced at Forrest, her eyes filled with feelings she could not describe. She turned off the light and closed the door. Forrest was just a friend and nothing more. She was tired of liking people who were always surrounded by others who liked them too. Forrest never really cared about anyone; it was probably just a passing fancy.
She really liked Ethan. It meant a lot to her when he said he did not care that she could not have kids.
Ethan had been nice to her since coming home from the hospital. He showed her a kind of love she had never felt before. For the first time, she knew what it felt like to be loved. Ethan was so amazing, and that made her like him even more. When they returned to the Arnold residence, the driver said, âIf Ethan asks about todayâ¦â
âJust tell him the truth,â Madelyn replied calmly. âIf he gets confused, Iâll explain it to him.â Now that they were together, she did not want to hide things from Ethan except for that one thing. She promised herself it would never happen again. Even when she married Ethan, she wanted to be honest and true.
Madelyn had old-fashioned ideas about relationships because she grew up in a small town with her grandmother. She taught her that it is important to be loyal to the one you love. She believed that cheating was wrong, no matter who did it. She could not even think of forgiving someone for it, not even once.
