Chapter 1002

Madelyn averted her gaze and said, “Zach, I hope you can change your arrogant attitude. Their livesmatter, too. Regardless of who badmouths me in the future, you don’t need to care. This is mybusiness; you just need to care for your own. I can take care of myself. I don’t need a single pennyfrom you.”

She pulled away from him and continued, “I’ll return to my room. You can have breakfast by yourself.”

Just as she took a step forward, she suddenly fainted.

“Madelyn!” Zach cried before catching her in time. His first instinct was to check her breathing as heordered, “Call an ambulance!”

A servant replied, “Yes, sir. I’ll do it immediately!”

‘Why did she faint for no reason?’ Zach thought.

When she arrived at the hospital, Kai gave her a checkup.

“Nothing’s wrong. Madelyn’s just overly exhausted,” Kai answered. He then looked at Zach withfurrowed brows, “Where have you been spending all that money of yours? You knew her health wasterrible, and you still let her go through a whole night without sleep! Did you give all your money toCecilia?”novelbin

Zach argued, “I’ve never had any ties to Cecilia. But I can’t help it if Madelyn doesn’t believe me!”

‘I can’t help it? How absurd, Zach!’ Kai thought. He pursed his lips and wanted to say something.Ultimately, he did not since Madelyn would leave Zach soon anyway. Telling him. anything would nothelp at all.

“You can explain it to her when she wakes up. Telling me won’t bring you any benefit,” Kai explained.

Then, Zach asked, “When will she wake up?”

Kai told him, “She’s just exhausted. She’ll be fine after some sleep. Both of you can go home after shefinishes her IV drip.”

After Kai left, Zach stood by the bed, staring at Madelyn. When Kevin arrived, Zach was sitting onMadelyn’s bed, sleeping. He opened his eyes when he heard the sound of footsteps.

“Mr. Jardin, both girls are fine and will be discharged in two days. They’ve requested to join the JardinCorporation. I’ve already had HR help them with the onboarding,” Kevin reported.

Alcohol poisoning in exchange for an opportunity to join the Jardin Corporation. It seemed the alcoholpoisoning was a blessing in disguise for them since they had neither the experience nor skill to enterJardin Corporation. However, even if they could join, they would not be able to withstand the

pressure.

Kevin continued his report, “Ms. Samford is responsible for the agreement with SkyNet Technologies. Itis currently being processed. The executives have told me that a few major projects have beentransferred to Ms. Samford. The documents that require your signature are also being sent to her now.The difference between your shares and Ms. Samford’s is only 15%.

We’ve also found out that she plans to buy other shares. Mr. Watson and Mr. Mason had signed anagreement to transfer their shares to Ms. Samford for unknown reasons. I suspect that she wants totake your position. If this continues, she will snatch your position away soon.

Zach tucked Madelyn to him while listening.

‘At such a crucial moment, why are you fussing over Madelyn? The most urgent business we have nowis to foil Cecilia’s plan. If this goes on, the company will belong to her soon. Madelyn is Zach’s liability.She couldn’t help him in his career at all and would only drag him. down at this critical time,’ Kevinthought.

SkyNet Technologies is a company that researches processing chips. It would benefit the JardinCorporation immensely if they could get the rights to those chips. They could save on patent fees, takecontrol of this technology, and make giant leaps in this field within a few years. Other international techcompanies were unable to take SkyNet Technologies down. If Cecilia could talk them into it, it would bean achievement for her.

It was a sure win for Jardin Corporation, earning them over thirty billion dollars. However, it also causedMadelyn to be even more disappointed with him. When you win some, you lose some. However, as abusinessman, Zach was greedy. He wanted to win both the deal and Madelyn.

“Have you found the person I told you to search for?” Zach asked.

Kevin answered, “I did. Locating him will take less than a week, and I’ll bring him to Ventropolis soonafter. But, Mr. Jardin, why are we looking for Forrest? His life means nothing to us. If he comes back,Frida will not have mercy on him.”

Zach closed his eyes and said in a tired tone, “It’s because Madelyn is worried for his safety. Besidesher monthly donation to the orphanage, her biggest expenditure is at a private investigator company.She just wants him to come back. Instead of having him out there making Madelyn worried, why don’twe put him right under our noses? Frida would not care much about him for now.”

Kevin asked, “Could it be that Yvonne is still alive?”

If not, why did Frida suddenly disappear after the press conference? She did not even care about hercompany and just left Ventropolis.

“Her remains were not found in the plane crash. If Yvonne didn’t die, then he might be alive too!” Kevindeduced.

A sense of panic rose in Zach’s chest, and he ordered coldly, “Enough! Get out!”
