Chapter 313 Dote On Her
Meanwhile, Lindsay was scared out of her mind, her entire body trembling in fear.
Revenge is a dish best served cold.

As soon as the words fell, those terrified, burly men scrambled to their feet, eager to cape.
However, they weren’t about to get off so easily.
Sirens wailed in the distance, growing louder as it approached. Shortly after, several police officers arrived on the scene, promptly handcuffing the burly men. Lindsay was also escorted into the police car along with
them.
As everything came to an end, it was only then that Madelyn could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
With a look of confusion, she turned to the men in black around her. “Who are you?”
At that moment, one of the men in black replied, “Mrs. Lockhart, we were secretly sent by Mr. Lockhart to follow and protect you.”
In reality, Sebastian was worried about Madelyn encountering some mishap. Thus, over the past few days, he had discreetly arranged for some people to stay near her at all times to protect her from being taken advantage of when she was alone.
A wave of warmth couldn’t help but wash over Madelyn’s heart after she heard that. Unexpectedly, Sebastian has actually arranged for someone to protect me in secret. Although his demeanor is aloof, it’s clear that he still cares about me deep down.
Madelyn smiled sweetly at that thought.
Suddenly, the men in black all bowed in unison toward a certain direction. “Mr. Lockhart.”
Mr. Lockhart? Madelyn was momentarily stunned before she noticed Sebastian approaching her with an air of divine grace.
“Are you all right?” Sebastian walked up to her. His voice was cold, yet his tone was filled with an undeniable
concern
In reality, when the men in black had charged forward earlier, one of them had seized the opportunity to inform Sebastian. Consequently, Sebastian immediately rushed over.
Madelyn felt surreal, staring blankly at Sebastian for quite a while.
However, Sebastian rolled up her sleeve, inspecting her arm thoroughly from all angles. Once he confirmed that she only had a few scrapes on her hand and suffered no major injuries, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He then gently took her soft hand into his and said casually. “Let’s go home.”

Years and years later, when Madelyn recalled those words, she still felt an unprecedented sense of comfort.
Of course, that was a story for another time
As for Lindsay, she and Eric were taken to the police station together. Given that it was her first offense and Eric adamantly insisted that she had nothing to do with the matter, the police only held her for a few hours before releasing her.
On the other hand, Eric, having been involved in the underworld for a while, inevitably had some past criminal records. Coupled with his recent involvement in a robbery case, he was sentenced directly by the police to serve two years in prison.
Upon learning the news, Lindsay stood at the police station’s entrance, her heart sinking into a cold abyss. Eric’s predicament must have something to do with Madelyn!
However, Lindsay had not anticipated that Madelyn was not to be trifled with. Had she known earlier, she would not have provoked Madelyn.
However, regret was of no use at that point.
Upon returning to Lockhart Villa, Sebastian instructed Madelyn to settle comfortably on the couch before. he fetched the first aid kit.
“Sebastian. I’m fine. You don’t have to do this,” Madelyn reassured him, thinking to herself that it was just a minor scrape. A little rinse and a few band–aids would do the trick.
As a result, Sebastian glared at her and ordered coldly, “Sit still and don’t move.”
Madelyn had no choice but to obediently comply with him.
Following that. Sebastian helped her by lifting her sleeve. He first disinfected the area using a cotton ball soaked in alcohol, then gently applied ointment for bruises. Lastly, he covered the area with a few adhesive bandages.
Throughout the entire process, Sebastian moved gently and cautiously as if he were afraid to cause Madelyn any discomfort.
A sweet smile couldn’t help but bloom on Madelyn’s lips as her face started to flush with happiness.
At that moment, Sebastian was done tending to the wounds. Looking up, he noticed her radiant smile and couldn’t help but feel slightly puzzled. “What are you smiling at?” She’s injured, yet she’s still smiling so happily? How carefree must she be?
“It’s nothing.” Madelyn obediently shook her head, the smile on her face growing wider.
This silly girl…. Sebastian sighed softly, shaking his head. He then packed away the medical kit and turned to walk into the kitchen.
Considering that neither of them had eaten dinner, Sebastian decided to whip up something for them to
eat.
Madelyn was puzzled when she heard the stove being ignited from the kitchen.

At that moment, Sebastian, tall and slender, was dressed in an ape professional cook, carefully adding seasonings to it.

le stood before the pot like a
Sebastian appeared not only composed in such a manner but also with an added touch of gentleness.
Madelyn was utterly captivated. Goodness. He’s perfect!
However, after she calmed down and reflected upon the situation, Madelyn figured it wasn’t appropriate for a CEO like Sebastian to prepare a meal personally.
With that thought in mind, Madelyn entered the kitchen and said, “Sebastian, maybe I should handle this,”
“Leave,” Sebastian said nonchalantly. “I’ve got this.”
“I-Madelyn wanted to say something else, but Sebastian’s chilling glance silenced her..
She had no choice but to leave and sit in the living room obediently..
Not long after, a fragrant aroma began to waft through the air.
Following the enticing aroma. Sebastian brought out a bowl of creamy tomato soup, a serving of pan–seared salmon, and a dish of stir–fried vegetables.
Madelyn was stunned for a moment. She hadn’t expected the dishes to be so vibrant in color. They were downright more appealing than what professional chefs made.
“Sebastian, when did you learn to cook?” Madelyn asked, reflecting that she had never seen Sebastian in the kitchen before.
To her surprise, Sebastian casually replied, “I’ve never learned, just winging it.”
What Madelyn was stunned. I thought no one in this world was supposed to be perfect. So, why is it that this man standing before me is so impressive in every aspect, be it his looks, physique, intelligence, emotional intelligence, and everything else?
Subsequently, Sebastian served her a piece of salmon, saying, “Let’s eat.”
Madelyn nodded, then took a bite. She was almost moved to tears by the delicious taste.
“Sebastian, how are you so wonderful?” Madelyn felt an inexplicable wave of emotion as she ate.
In this world, aside from her father, she reckoned there was probably only one other person who would care for her, look after her, and protect her without any reason.
“You’re my wife. Who else should I treat well if not you?” Sebastian suddenly responded, his expression unchanging.
Madelyn was utterly taken aback. What did he just say? Did I hear that right!
Sebastian clearly noticed her dazed expression at that moment. Unable to suppress a slight smile, he reached out and ruffled her hair, saying, “Good girl, let’s eat.”
Madelyn swiftly gave a firm nod in response.
