Chapter 81

Madison hurriedly sent a message in the group chat to report her safety.

As soon as the message was sent, a call came in.

It was from Ethan.

Madison was still feeling a little guilty. She took the initiative and said sweetly, “Ethan, why did you wake up so early?”

She woke up at four in the morning. She had had breakfast, but it was only past four. It was still a quarter to five.

Ethan ignored her small talk and went straight to the point. “Are you still with Leo?”

His tone was also a little unfriendly.

Madison was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, she roughly knew how. the other party found out.

She was drinking with Cullen at Opal Heights Bar. It only took Ethan a little investigation to know her whereabouts.

Ethan had been in Sidovor City for a long time. There was no way that he did not have this ability.

He had sent her messages and called her from last night because he was worried it would not be safe for her to stay alone with Leo.

Regarding the accident overseas, even if she believed in Leo’s character, Ethan and others might not believe in him, especially when the relevant clues all showed that it might be Leo.

Even without evidence, he was still the number one suspect.

However, it was not the time to argue about the case back then. Madison only wanted to coax the angry Ethan first.

“I’m sorry, Ethan. I drank yesterday and was drunk. I just woke up. Leo only happened to be in Opal Heights Bar. Moreover, I haven’t completed the divorce procedures with him. It seems… natural for him to take me away from someone else, right?”

The other party snorted.

Even through the phone, Madison felt her scalp tingle when she heard that.

She wheedled at Ethan. “Oh, Ethan, I didn’t do it on purpose. If I had any

consciousness, I would have gone home. I was already asleep by then.”

Regarding yesterday’s incident, most of Madison’s memories were missing. However, she could still vaguely recall some scenes of her talking to Cullen.

Anyway, Cullen seemed to have received some messages. Then, he cursed and left.

She did not have time to think about it carefully. Ethan’s voice was already heard.

“Jessica! John and I are not angry that you’re with Leo. We’re angry that you went drinking secretly and didn’t tell us. Do you understand?”

When a person who was usually as slo ppy as Ethan suddenly became solemn, it made people feel even more timid.

Madison also knew that she had gone overboard this time. She admitted her mistake honestly. “I’m sorry, Ethan. I’ve made you worry.”

She felt a lump in her throat and almost burst into tears out of guilt, but it was more because she felt the care of others.

This was something she had never experienced before.

Madison looked out of the window, hoping the sun would rise soon. She wanted home and cook for Joe and others so much.

to go

Ethan could tell that something was wrong with her emotions. He was not a sentimental person, so he quickly changed his tone.

“Stu pid girl, so you know you made us worry? Do you alone next time?”

still dare to go out and drink

Madison wanted to retort that she was not alone, but after thinking about how she was the one who caused trouble this time, she could only go along with Ethan’s words.

“I won’t drink alone anymore, Ethan. I won’t drink even with you guys! I refuse to drink, and there won’t be a next time!” she said righteously.

Ethan’s anger had long dissipated when she apologized, but he was still putting on airs.

“What’s the use of telling me? I’m not in Sidovor City. Think about how to tell Antoine, Joe, and others. Oh, right, Samuel-is also with you, right? He doesn’t talk when he’s angry. Tsk, tsk… Let’s see how you coax him.”

Those two sounds of tsk were simply giving Madison a headache.

She thought about it and felt a headache coming on. She thought she wouldn’t have come out to drink.

Chapter 81

Madison, the person in question, was feeling… regretful, very regretful!

Madison suddenly did not want to talk about this topic.

She lay by the bed and chatted with Ethan while charging her phone, trying to change the topic.

“By the way, Ethan, why aren’t you resting yet? Joe already told you where I am. You can’t be waiting for my news, can you? Are you still training?

She couldn’t hear clearly over the phone, but she could still vaguely hear the sound of the keyboard.

Although Ethan and Samuel had opened a company together, the main matters were left to Samuel to manage. Ethan still stayed in the club most of the time.

He was not young, but he was not very old either. He still had stamina and a quick. reaction to compete in the arena. He also hoped to win a few more championships in

the arena.

When Ethan heard this, he cursed first.

“Stup id girl, do you have a conscience? I called you every half an hour, and you still say I was not waiting for your news. Buy the ticket yourself to the finals next month. Don’t freeload on me,”

His cursing tone was finally back to normal.

Madison grinned. “No, Ethan. I was spouting nonsense. I’ll immediately come over from Sidovor City and apologize to you sincerely!”

The other party snorted. “Get lost, and don’t bother me! My training time is very precious. I don’t have time to see you.”

“Then next month, when you win the championship and don’t have to train all day, I’ll come again, okay?”

Madison knew that Ethan was no longer angry. She felt relieved and swayed her legs. outside the bed.

“I’m not free.”

The other party pretended to be cold. Knowing she was safe, he was relieved and pretended to be impatient. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up. Don’t disturb my training.”

“Alright, alright, alright. Then go do your work. See you next month.”

Chapter S1

Madison did not continue chatting with him.

945

She had learned about their E-Sports club’s schedule before. It used to be regular. However, because the finals this year were held overseas, due to the time difference, they reversed the time to start training at home, sleeping during the day, and practicing at night.

Even so, at this time, he should have rested long ago.

Therefore, strictly speaking, he did not dare to sleep without confirming her safety.

Even though he knew that she was safe, he did not dare to take any chances.

Thinking of this, Madison’s complicated emotions rose again. When she was about to hang up the phone, she added, “Ethan, don’t forget to rest. See you next month.”

“You’re so pretentious. I’m going to sleep!”

Ethan could not stand this tone and said stiffly, “I’m hanging up!”

“Alright, I won’t disturb you anymore. Bye.”

Madison smiled. “Remember to miss me!”

The person on the other end of the line cursed something before hanging up.

After chatting with Ethan, Madison’s mood improved. It was easy for her to apologize to Joe and others.

She had only sent a few words to Joe, Antoine, and Samuel in Sidovor City. She had sent more to John and Jason in Rozalia.

Her apology was sincere. Coupled with her petty-looking meme, she was sure that John and Jason could not bear to scold her.

As for Antoine, although he looked cold, he was the casiest to coax. Madison was not 100 worried.

Joe was the same as Ethan. His temper came and went quickly. It should be fine if she acted coquettishly.

Only Samuel did not seem easy to coax.

Like Ethan said, Samuel didn’t say anything when he was angry. He was usually quiet, and others couldn’t tell if he was angry. It would take Madison some effort to coax him.

At the thought of this, Madison’s expression became a little conflicted.
