Chapter 876

Margaret took Dalton from Madelyn and said, “I’ll take him upstairs for a bath.”

Madelyn responded, “Sure.”

She then grabbed a macaron and tasted it. It tasted different from the ones she made herself. It was a little too sweet.

She said, “Put these in the refrigerator. I’ll make macarons myself tomorrow.”

The maid responded, “Okay.”

Zach took off his suit jacket and handed it to a maid to hang it on the coat rack in the hallway. He said, “The macarons the maid made weren’t to your liking?”

Madelyn replied extremely coldly, “I’m going upstairs now.”

The maids did not sense anything unusual. They felt Zach had always treated Madelyn very well. They also noticed Zach would buy the best jewelry for Madelyn.

The maids felt that way also because some time ago, when Madelyn thought Zach was always spending the whole night away from home, he actually came back in the middle of the night every day to secretly check on Madelyn. He even instructed the maids not to reveal anything to her.

The maids believed that Madelyn was treating Zach too coldly.

Zach followed Madelyn back to the master bedroom. As soon as they entered, he closed the door behind him. Madelyn was then suddenly pulled and pressed against the door by him.

She asked, “Do you want to do it now? Can’t you wait for me to take a shower first?”

Zach lowered his head to look at her deeply while trying to suppress the emotions in his eyes, “Lift your head and look at me.”

Madelyn did so obediently.

Right now, Madelyn seemed compliant and soft, and would not get upset at all.

When their eyes met, Zach’s anger instantly faded when he saw Madelyn appear emotionless. He held her head and hugged her, “There’s nothing between me and her. I know you don’t care about that, but I still hope you can care about me again like in the past…”

Madelyn was actually feeling apathetic.

She was lost in her thoughts, ‘How could he have the audacity to say such things? Even if Hayson deserved to die, what about Ethan then? And Yvonne?

‘He even deprived me of the chance to be a mother. He made me unable to have my own child for the rest of my life. How could he just casually say those words?! And how could he treat all of this as if nothing had ever happened?’

Madelyn responded, “Some things can never be made right. Unless you can bring him back to life, can you?

“Zach Jardin, do you know that I’ve been waiting, waiting for you to become tired of me again and force me out of Ventropolis?”

Madelyn thought to herself again, ‘This life is just the same as the past life. Even if Cecilia is gone in this life, Zach will have another woman. That includes the young girl who appeared today.

‘Only when he gets tired of me can I truly be free. Now, he has a lot of power overseas. No matter where I escape to, he’ll have his ways to find me.’

Zach replied, “I won’t fool around again.”

Madelyn’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, “You said the same thing in the past life.”

Zach’s eyes instantly darkened.

In Madelyn’s past life, when Zach told her that he would be loyal to her, she had believed him.
