Back then, Madelyn didn’t really want to stick around, so she discreetly slipped away.
Upon venturing out, she realized that there was actually nothing wrong with Christopher at all.
Yet, this matter had inexplicably leaked out.

Furthermore, the narrative had shifted, suggesting that Madelyn had abandoned her fiancé to go on a date with her secret lover.
Overnight, many had become incredibly disillusioned with her.
Everyone scored her, accusing the daughter of the Thornton family of being fickle and not adhering to the traditional role of a woman.
Since then, her reputation for being promiscuous was known to all.
Upon reflecting on these matters, Madelyn chuckled coldly.
However, she agreed. “Sure, tomorrow is the weekend, Janessa. Shall we make plans for tomorrow?”
Janessa’s eyes lit up, she hadn’t expected her to ag
ree so quickly.
She immediately nodded. “All right.”
Then she stood up and said, “Well, I’m done eating, I’ll be going now, Madelyn. See you tomorrow,
After saying that, she picked up her plate and left.
Madelyn sat there, watching the retreating figure of Janessa, lost in thought. Suddenly, a mischievous smile tugged at the corner of her lips.
Jillian watched from the side, feeling that her smile held a deeper meaning, as if she was harboring some mischievous thoughts.
Unable to contain her curiosity, she asked, “Madelyn, are you planning something?”
Madelyn immediately snapped back to reality, unable to resist a chuckle. She playfully pinched her chubby cheek.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. you saw through me. Since when did you become a mind reader?”
Jillian rubbed her face, flashing a cute smile. “The way you smile,” she said, “I have a feeling you’re up to no good.”
“No no no, you’ve got it all wrong then.”
Madelyn said with a sly grin, “I’m not the one who’s up to no good.”
Upon hearing those words, Jillian couldn’t help but recall Janessa’s face from earlier.
Immediately, understanding dawned on her as she said “Oh, I get it now. It’s Janessa who’s up to no good,
isn’t it?”

“You really are a clever otte!” Madelyn said, laughing heartily once again.

Jillian also laughed, but then curiously asked, “So, if Janessa is up to no good, why did you still agree to
Madelyn scoffed lightly, her expression slightly haughty. “What do you think? She’s after my man, should I be afraid of her? Since she wants to go shopping with me, then let’s go. I’ll show her just how much we love. each other. So, that was the plan.
Suddenly, Jillian remembered the day she was kidnapped. Two tall, handsome men had walked into the police station.
The one asking about Madelyn had finely crafted features, paired with striking eyebrows and piercing eyes. He was so handsome it was almost infuriating.
She could vaguely recall the chief referring to that man as Mr. Lockhart.
Upon that thought, Jillian couldn’t help but ask, “Madelyn, among the two people who came to the police station to look for you that day, one of them seemed particularly worried about you. Everyone calls him Mr. Lockhart. Is he your boyfriend?”
Madelyn couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
She shook her head and said, “Oh, him? He’s definitely not my boyfriend.”
“Huh? Could it be Mr. Gale then?” Jillian asked in a daze.
Upon hearing those words, Madelyn immediately shook her head in disbelief. “How could it possibly be
him?”
“Huh?” Jillian was completely baffled. So who was it?
Madelyn sighed. “What I mean is, Mr. Lockhart isn’t my boyfriend, but rather my…fiancé.”
As she uttered the word fiancé, a blissful smile spread across Madelyn’s face.
Jillian was slightly taken aback at her words.
Madelyn is engaged?
It didn’t take long for Jillian to come to terms with reality.
She chuckled, admiration lacing her words. “He’s quite handsome, isn’t he? And you, Madelyn, you’re so beautiful. The two of you are such a charming pair, a perfect match made by the heavens.”
Madelyn brimmed with joy at that.
With a slight lift of her chin, she spoke with a hint of excitement. “Hehe, you know, I feel the same way.”
Both of them laughed joyously.
The following day.
Sebastian happened to be home, though he was still occupied with work in his study.

The sunlight streamed in through the floor–to–ceiling windows as he sat at his desk, engrossed in what was on the
Computer ScrECIL.
The wisps of hair on his forehead were distinctly visible under the sunlight, giving off a refreshing vibe.
He exuded an aura of nonchalance and nobility that was so captivating, one simply couldn’t divert their
gaze.
Madelyn was leaning against the door, appreciating his handsome features for a while. No matter how long she looked, she could never have enough of him
“Sebastian…
She suddenly called out in a coquettish manner.
Sebastian casually lifted his gaze toward her. “What’s wrong?”
Madelyn walked in, her eyes crinkling up in a smile as she spoke. “Sebastian, next month is grandma’s birthday. Should we prepare a gift?”
“No need, just have someone prepare the gift on our behalf, Sebastian responded nonchalantly,
That won’t do!” Madelyn rejected outright.
Sebastian was slightly puzzled.
Madelyn said with a smile, “Think about it, this is my first time giving a gift to grandma. Wouldn’t it seem insincere if I just let someone else prepare it on my behalf?”
Sebastian thought what she said made sense.
Hence, he turned his gaze to her attractive face and asked, “So, what’s your plan?”
Madelyn stepped forward smilingly, taking his arm as she suggested. “Sebastian, how about we go shopping? We could pick something out together, does that sound good?”
Upon hearing this, Sebastian hesitated.
“Ah, Sebastian, won’t you come with me?” Madelyn immediately asked in a coquettish manner.
Sebastian could never reject her when she acted that way. Hence, he had no choice but to pod in agreement
Following that, they tidied up and headed out.
When the two of them arrived at the rendezvous point. Janessa was already there.
Upon spotting Madelyn, Janessa waved her hand. “Madelyn, over here!”
When Madelyn looked over, she noticed from a distance that Janessa had taken great care to dress up.
She wore a pink strapless dress that showcased her legs. They weren’t exceptionally long, but they were proportionate and pleasing to the eye.
As she pot closer she noticed lanessa adorned with a cane of deen chestnut curls. Her makeun was

However, what alarmed Madelyn the most was realizing that her dress was slightly revealing at the chest!
A faintly discernible black crevice was present, and every man who passed by had their eyes transfixed on
Then. Madelyn glanced at herself, attired in a casual white t–shirt. Despite its refreshing look, it lacked a certain feminine charm.
Regret washed over her, wishing she had taken the time to dress up before leaving the house.
Upon reflecting on this. Madelyn could only sigh in resignation, thinking, “Well played, Janessa, well played!”
“Madelyn, you’re here,” Janessa said, her voice laced with a gentle smile.
Madelyn responded nonchalantly with a hum.
Then, Janessa turned her gaze toward Sebastian.
The momenti Janessa laid her eyes on his breathtakingly handsome face, her heart filled with overwhelming joy. Her eyes sparkled uncontrollably, brimming with admiration and love.
However, she managed to conceal her excitement.
In a soft voice, Janessa said. “Sebastian, it’s been a while
