The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 349
“Why’d you come to the school?” Madelyn asked, catching her breath with her hand on her chest.
“George called me and told me you hadn’t come home yet. I thought you might still be at school,” Ethansaid, giving a smile. “I was worried since it’s late, so I came to check on you. I didn’t expect thestudents here to be so enthusiastic.”
Madelyn and Ethan rode the elevator down to the first floor. Madelyn looked anxiously back at Leyton,still upstairs. “You’re such a big shot, most people don’t get to see you,” she said. “You could’ve justgiven me a call.” “I tried to call, but your phone was off, Ethan said.
“Oh!” Madelyn exclaimed, finally realizing. “I turned my phone off during the test. I’m sorry. You don’thave to wait for me; you’ve got a lot of work to do.”
“How could I not worry when you’re alone?” he asked. Madelyn’s lips lifted into a smile. Nobody hadever been this kind to her.
“Leyton parked the car at the school entrance, so it’s a bit of a walk,” Ethan said. “Do you want me tocarry you?” Madelyn shook her head. “No, that’s okay. I’m not tired, just a bit sleepy. Let’s go home.”
Suddenly, Ethan bent down and scooped her up into his arms. Madelyn was so surprised that sheinstinctively clung onto his neck. “There are still people around who haven’t left class,” she said. “We’llbe seen.”
“So what if they see us? I’m carrying my own girlfriend. Nobody can say anything about that.” Madelynwas worried about Ethan’s legs. His recovery was taking time, and he was not fully healed yet. “If youget tired, just put me down.”
“It’s okay. I’m not tired.” They walked down the quiet path with lights illuminating the way. In the lightbeams, it looked like snowflakes were falling. Ethan’s steps were slow, wishing the path could be a littlelonger. A big snowflake fell on his shoulder, and he looked up.
“It’s snowing, Madelyn.” No response. He looked down at Madelyn in his arms and saw that she hadfallen asleep. Snowflakes landed on her long, dark eyelashes, making her skin look as pale anddelicate as a fairytale princess.
As they left the school grounds, Leyton had already pulled up in the car. From a nearby black car,someone said, “Isn’t that Madelyn in his arms? Why’s she still at school so late? Zach… Is Madelynreally not coming home?”novelbin
Zach’s eyes darkened, and his face revealed an indescribable chill. “It’s her house. Why wouldn’t shecome back?”
Madelyn slept soundly all the way to the Arnold residence. Ethan carried her upstairs, and Leytonfollowed with her backpack. Madelyn instinctively rolled into the covers as soon as she hit the bed.Ethan tucked her in and quietly closed the door. He also turned off her phone that was in her backpack.
“Tomorrow, help her get an hour off school. Have one of the maids wake her up around 7:30.” “Anhour? What if she oversleeps, misses a class, and gets upset?”
“Compared to her health, nothing else matters.”
She had surgery and stayed at home to get better for two weeks. But she was not very strong. If shehad not been carefully looked after for the past month, she would have gotten sicker. “Should we stillgive her the medicine?”
“Just for the last two weeks. We can’t stop now.”
“Yes, boss.” In the darkness, Madelyn woke up. She heard every word of the conversation outside thedoor. She pressed a hand to her racing heart, feeling overwhelmed. ‘ Is this what it feels like to becared for?’ In the past, Madelyn had gotten a cold and a fever one night. When Zach came home andcould not find her, he asked the maid how she was. When he found out she was sick, he had just said,“It’s just a cold. She won’t die.
