Chapter 478
The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning
Madelyn put her phone away and turned around, âNothing.â
Ethan said, âYou didnât bring anything when you came here. Do you have anything important that you need to bring from Southern Haven Villas? If you do, I can have George go and get it for you.â
Madelyn responded, âNo need. I donât have much to pack. Everything I need is here. I put most of my important things in the apartment I rented.â
She then walked toward Ethan and held his hand that had the IV. It was a little cold. She asked, âAre you cold? Let me get you a hot water bag.â Ethan replied, âJust stay here and accompany me.
âOkay,â Madelyn responded. She then gently placed his hand under the blanket. âDo you want to eat something? Your stomach isnât great. If you have the IV on an empty stomach, it might make your stomach uncomfortable.â
Right after she said that, someone knocked on the door. The servant said, âMr. Arnold, Ms. Jent. Mrs. Arnold Sr. instructed me to bring you some soup. Please have some.â âThe timing couldnât have been better,â Madelyn thought before saying, âCome in.â
The servant pushed the door open. Madelyn looked at the large bowl of soup. There was enough for two to three people, but there was only one spoon and a small bowl. Madelyn said, âYou can put it down. Iâll take care of the rest.â
The servant responded, âOkay. If you need anything, just let me know.â
Madelyn then asked her to bring a hot water bag over. The servant nodded and left. Madelyn fed Ethan about half a bowl of the soup. She was still the same as before, and always took care of him meticulously no matter what.
Ethan suddenly reached out to tuck her stray hair behind her ear, âEven though youâre only eighteen years old, youâre so mature and composed unlike many people your age. You donât throw tantrums and no matter what you encounter, you always remain so calm⦠âHe sighed before he continued, âYou donât need to be so sensible in front of me. You can get angry with me, you know. At least that way, I can feel that you care about me.â
Upon seeing he did not want to drink it anymore, she put the soup aside. She then grabbed a tissue and wiped his mouth. âPerhaps, everyone has different ways of expressing their emotions.
âAt that time, the situation was unique. I didnât know what to do⦠You made your decision, and I couldnât interfere.â
Ethan asked, âIf Iâd really gotten together with her, what would you have done?â Madelyn felt uncomfortable. She looked at him and smiled lightly, âIâm not sure. Maybe Iâd just continue living my life as before.â
After everything she had been through, Madelyn had learned to let go. She believed no matter what happened, life would go on. She continued saying, âI mightâve felt sad at first, but as time passed, Iâd probably feel better.â
She thought, âTime has a way of healing everything. And whether a person truly loves someone, time will tellâ¦â
After Ethan finished his IV drip, he went downstairs and had a hearty dinner with Madelyn. It was not good for him to stay in his room all the time.
Madelynâs presence was like Ethanâs medicine. With her here, he seemed to have come alive again and it seemed like they were back to how they used to beâ¦
