In truth, Madelyn was unclear where this surge of jealousy had originated from.
Finished
However, upon hearing that the two of them had gone on the business trip together, even knowing it was strictly professional, a wave of heartache still washed over her.
Upon thinking about this, Madelyn found herself feeling inexplicably unsettled.
Following that, she immediately hailed a taxi by the roadside and then returned to Thornton Corporation.
When she returned to the company, Jillian noticed her distressed expression and quickly asked, “Madelyn. what’s wrong?
Just an hour ago, she had left cheerfully, so why did she return looking so crestfallen after such a short time?
“I’m fine.”
Madelyn stubbornly shook her head, attempting to feign an air of nonchalance.
However, she was practically wearing her heart on her sleeve.
The disappointment etched on her face was impossible to conceal.
“Did you two have a quarrel?” Jillian guessed, beginning to piece together the situation…
The only person who seemed capable of sending Madelyn’s emotions on a roller coaster ride was Sebastian.
“We didn’t argue. Madelyn still shook her head in denial..
She simply felt a bit upset; all she needed was some time to calm down.
Seeing that, Jillian didn’t bother her anymore, thinking it might be best to just let her be alone for a while.
After all, when it came to matters of the heart, outsiders couldn’t really offer much help.
At that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
“Come in.” Madelyn called out.
Derek pushed the door open and entered.
“Dad?” Upon seeing her father, Madelyn was somewhat taken aback. “Why the personal visit? You could have simply relayed any message through Cyrus, or I could have come to your office. What brings you
here?”
Upon hearing this, Derek gave a kind smile. “I have something to discuss with you. The company will be receiving a significant international project recently, so I’m planning on handing it over to you to manage. It would be a good opportunity to enhance your skills. What do you think?”
Once he had spoken, Derek looked at his daughter, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Upon hearing this, Derek looked at his beloved daughter with a great sense of contentment.
Though Madelyn used to be quite clueless, once she put her mind to something, her abilities were truly impressive.
If she could take over the company as soon as possible, Derek would also be at ease.
And so, the matter was settled just like that.
Meanwhile, at Lockhart Group.
Having upset Madelyn earlier, Sebastian’s mood was far from settled, making it difficult for him to concentrate on his work.
He often found himself thinking, and his thoughts would always drift to the image of Madelyn’s angry face.
In the end, Sebastian was truly at a loss and had no choice but to call Malcolm over.
“Malcolm, do you know how to cheer up a girl?” Sebastian suddenly asked.
Malcolm was clearly taken aback.
If an average person had said those words, it would have been one thing, but coming from Sebastian? No matter how Malcolm thought about it, it felt incredibly strange.
“Mr. Lockhart, have you upset Mrs. Lockhart?” Malcolm asked tentatively.
Sebastian neither confirmed nor denied it.
Malcolm cleared his throat awkwardly.
Who would have thought that this aloof CEO would actually wait earnestly for my answer? And why do I find that rather adorable?
However, Malcolm still spoke up. “Mr. Lockhart, there’s something you might not be aware of. Every girl in this world, without exception, has a fondness for romance…”
Then, Malcolm relayed the gist of it to Sebastian.
Upon hearing this, a faint smile finally graced the corners of Sebastian’s lips.
In the evening, twilight merged into one.
As winter arrived, it seemed that the darkness fell particularly early. Despite it only being six in the evening. the city had already succumbed to the night.
Every household had their lights on, making the city’s nightscape incomparably brilliant.
After finishing her shift, Madelyn blended in with her fellow employees. She left the company’s main entrance, flowing out with the crowd of off–duty workers.
Just then, a wave of astonishment and uproar emerged from up ahead.

“Who prepared all of these?”
Upon hearing the commotion, both Madelyn and Jillian were slightly intrigued.
“What’s going on?” Madelyn asked, somewhat puzzled.
Jillian also wore a face of confusion. “I’m not sure; let’s go check it out.”
Madelyn nodded in agreement, and then the two of them squeezed their way through the crowd.

Thornton Corporation had established itself in a large commercial plaza in the city center. Consequently, at that time, one could say it was bustling with people coming and going.
People passing by noticed a large crowd gathered in the center of the square, Out of curiosity, they all craned their necks for a better look.
Then, everyone was astounded.
Madelyn made her way through the crowd, and upon realizing what had occurred, she couldn’t help but cover her mouth in delight, exclaiming, “Wow! This is so romantic.”
In the heart of the crowd, it was as if it had snowed, with copious amounts of catkins dancing in the air.
A person in a pink panther mascot attire was standing next to a blower, swaying gently. This action seemed to intensify the falling snowflakes.
What was even more breathtaking was that beneath this miniature “snowfield” was an expansive sea of pink
roses!
The flowers, meticulously wrapped in delicate paper, were perfectly preserved and radiated an unparalleled vibrancy.
If one were to meticulously count, there should be exactly nine hundred and ninety–nine blossoms.
“I wonder whose boyfriend this is. He’s so thoughtful! The lady sure is lucky!”
Jillian watched from the side, her eyes full of envy.
Such a romantic setting seemed as though it could only be witnessed in a TV drama.
Upon witnessing this scene, Madelyn also found her heart uncontrollably moved.
Which woman wouldn’t be moved to tears if she saw this?
Just then, someone suddenly exclaimed, “Hey, there’s a letter hidden among the flowers!”
“A letter?”
Upon hearing about a letter, everyone craned their necks to get a look.
Jillian was also quite eager, tugging Madelyn along to see the letter. However, due to the overwhelming crowd, they struggled for a while but still couldn’t make it to the front.

Upon heading over for a closer inspection, the name inscribed was indeed Madelyn!

“What?“.
