Chapter 403 No Room For Anyone Else

One day, Madelyn simply couldn’t hold up any longer. She promptly laid her head down on the library table and took a short nap.
Jillian thought Madelyn had exhausted herself and immediately rushed over in concern. “Madelyn, are you all right?”
“Huh?” Barely conscious, Madelyn opened her eyes to see Jillian. She offered her a faint smile and said. “Tm okay.
However, her smile was so fragile that it was impossible to look at it without feeling a pang of heartache.
Seeing her struggle so hard, Jillian couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache. “Madelyn, do you really have to push yourself this hard? Just watching you makes me feel exhausted.”
It’s quite exhausting… Madelyn chuckled and responded, “It’s all right. As long as I achieve good grades, any hardship or exhaustion is worth it.”
“Ah…” Jillian could only sigh helplessly, and then she took the initiative to suggest, “Let me help you!”
“Really? That’s wonderful” Madelyn suddenly smiled.
Following that, the two of them began to review.
It was undeniable that with the assistance of Jillian, Madelyn was improving.
Jillian, the top student, seemed to know just about everything. Whenever Madelyn struggled with something. Jillian could always provide a detailed explanation. This was far more convenient than Madelyn having to painstakingly search through resources bit by bit.
Before long. Madelyn had finished reviewing an entire course.
Madelyn was overjoyed, and she couldn’t help but pinch Jillian’s chubby little face. “Jillian, you’re simply a little angel!”
Jillian was also smiling gleefully.
However, at that moment, Jillian suddenly remembered that Josiah was about to leave. She said, “That’s right, after the final exams, Josiah is probably going to join the military.”
“Yeah…” Madelyn gave a slight nod. “He doesn’t have much talent in academics. Joining the military seems to align well with his aptitude. It’s the best choice for him.”
“However…” Jillian paused for a moment before letting out a deep sigh. “Madelyn, tell me honestly. Don’t you feel that there’s something a bit different about how Josiah feels about you?”
Madelyn’s face turned slightly awkward when she heard that. “Huh?”
Madelyn then chuckled and played dumb. “What are you talking about? Don’t overthink it, okay? Josiah and I are just the best of friends.”

When Madelyn saw her flustered demeanor, she couldn’t help but chuckle. “Don’t worry about it. It’s nothing. Besides, I don’t have those kind of feelings for Josiah. Remember? I am a married woman.”

“Well, that’s true…” Jillian seemed lost in thought as she nodded. Well, Mr. Lockhart is an exceptional man. It’s likely any woman would find it hard to let him go,
Suddenly, Madelyn suddenly said with all seriousness, “Jillian, I think it’s best if I just tell you the truth. Truth be told, even if Josiah likes me, it’s impossible for me to reciprocate his feelings. You see, my heart is so small, and it’s already filled to the brim with Sebastian. There’s simply no room left for anyone else. In this world, many things can be compromised. You can settle for less when it comes to food, clothing, mood, friends, and environment… However, when it comes to feelings, you should never settle. Missing out on me. Josiah could find a girl who would love him with all her heart. If I were to miss out on Sebastian, I would regret it for the rest of my life. I’ve lived a lifetime of regret already. This time around, I truly don’t want experience regret again.”

After Madelyn finished speaking, she closed her textbook and chuckled. “But you know, instead of spending time worrying about me, you might want to consider focusing on yourself. I’ve noticed it for quite some time. Tristan seems to have a bit of a crush on you.”
Jillian found herself completely perplexed by the barrage of words, not comprehending the talk about Madelyn’s lifelong regrets. However, as the conversation continued, she quickly snapped back to reality, her face flushed with embarrassment. “Madelyn, don’t jump to conclusions. My relationship with Tristan is purely platonic. We’re just classmates…”
“Is that so?” Madelyn suddenly let out a suggestive laugh. “Can’t there be more than just friendship between classmates?”
Jillian’s face flushed even redder. “Hey, Madelyn… Stop talking already.”
“Hahaha!” Madelyn burst out laughing.
After that, Madelyn stopped joking around and stood up straight away. “I think I’ve done enough reviewing for today. I’ll head out now. If there’s anything else I don’t understand, I’ll WhatsApp you for help.
“Okay” Jillian nodded with a smile.
Following that, Madelyn left..
A few days later, the examinations commenced.
The usually bustling campus had become unusually quiet during the two days of exams.
All the candidates were on edge, particularly the students in their senior year. They were particularly focused on their grades and credit hours, not daring to slack off even for a moment.
For all the years that Madelyn had been a playful spirit, and that was the first time she had ever experienced
a sense of nervousness.
Fortunately, Madelyn had prepared thoroughly, so when the final grades were released, she was quite satisfied.
The day they finished their exams, the campus officially started the winter break. Several people said their goodbyes at the campus gate.

Jillian nodded. “Don’t worry. I’ll come to hang out with you whenever I have time”
Tristan suddenly burst into laughter at that moment. “Poor Josiah, He’s joining the military this winter break.”
Josiah rolled his eyes. “Would you die if you didn’t bring up this topic?”
“What’s the big deal? You’re going regardless of whether I bring it up or not, right?” Tristan said with a chuckle.
At that moment, Madelyn turned her gaze toward Josiah, a hint of a smile playing on her lips. “Have you decided when you’re enlisting?” she asked.
“Not yet.” Josiah responded indifferently.
“All right. The day you decide to leave, remember to let me know in advance. Jillian and I will see you off.” Madelyn said with a smile.
At that moment, Josiah nodded slightly, his tone becoming somewhat somber. “Sure.”
“Okay, I’ll be taking my leave first.”
With that, Madelyn waved at the group and hailed a taxi from the roadside. The taxi quickly drove away
Watching the car disappear into the distance, Josiah finally let out a sigh of regret.
If he were to join the military, he probably wouldn’t get many chances to see her again.
Following that, the group said their goodbyes and returned to their own homes.
Ten minutes later, Madelyn arrived at Lockhart Villa.
Upon arriving home, she went straight to bed, letting out a sigh of relief. At last, the exams are over! It feels like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. During the winter break. I’ll be able to fully devote myself to learning at the company under Dad’s guidance.
However, an idea suddenly sprang to Madelyn’s mind.
That night, after finishing work. Sebastian returned home to find Madelyn engrossed in a magazine, sitting comfortably on the couch.
That wasn’t all. She would also extend her index finger, tracing and sketching something on it. It seemed she was drawing something.
In fact, it appeared as if she was examining something.
“What are you looking at?” Sebastian asked, his curiosity leading him over.
