Chapter 831
Kevin was taken aback by the transformation in Zach since the accident that befell Madelyn.
Two hours later, Kevin walked into Madelyn’s room with a file bag in hand and said, “Sir, I’ve broughteverything you requested.”
Zach, after carefully wiping Madelyn’s hands, covered them with a blanket. He said, “From now on,take charge of the company matters. Don’t come to me with every little thing-only the major contractsneeding my signature. You’ve been with me long enough; you know what to do.”
Kevin eyed Zach, his disbelief clear. “You’re walking away from everything? You built it all fromnothing.” His gaze shifted to Madelyn, still and silent on the bed. “Is this permanent? What if shedoesn’t wake up?”
“I owe her that much.” Zach’s voice was gentle, his touch tender on Madelyn’s face. “Now, go. Don’tdisturb her rest any further.”
Kevin nodded after a pause. “Understood, sir.” He couldn’t help but think, ‘Mr. Jardin’s lost it.’
True to his word, Zach left his empire behind, dedicating himself to Madelyn’s side. Ever sincesomeone had sabotaged her IV with poison, he hadn’t left her. He was a constant presence, vigilantand unwavering.
Madelyn might be in a vegetative state, Kai informed Zach that her brain activity suggested she wassomewhat aware. They hoped the right external stimuli might coax her back to consciousness.
By her side the next day, Zach played her favorite piano melodies, the music filling the room withmemories. Amidst the soft tunes, while slicing an apple, he was interrupted by a bodyguard.
“Sir, a girl named Mya is here to see Ms. Jent.”
Zach answered without hesitation, “No.”
The bodyguard turned to leave, but Zach called out, “Wait.”
“Anything else, sir?”
“Ensure the fifteenth floor remains off-limits,” Zach commanded, his gaze sharp and unwavering.
“Understood, sir,” the bodyguard confirmed before exiting.
Zach’s mind raced with anger. ‘How dare she come here! I’d refrained from acting against her only forMadelyn’s sake.’
Zach had kept Ethan’s death a secret for so long. It infuriated him that Madelyn had disappeared and,by some means, found the precise location of Ethan’s demise right after they returned from the Harperfamily’s party. All this chaos erupted just as he was about to start a new chapter with her.
Zach suppressed his seething anger. With a swift motion, he skewered the apple with a knife and flungit into the bin, his expression cold as stone.
Outside, Mya and Kennedy were barred from entering. When the bodyguard reemerged, Myaapproached with teary eyes. “So? Can I go in and see her now?”novelbin
“The fifteenth floor is off-limits by Mr. Jardin’s orders. You must leave,” the bodyguard stated firmly.
Mya’s tears spilled over as she begged, “Just a moment with her, that’s all I ask. I won’t be a botheragain.”
“No means no. If you don’t leave, we won’t be responsible for what happens next,” the bodyguardwarned.
Kennedy sighed, “Let’s go.”
Despite her daily attempts since learning of Madelyn’s plight, Zach’s resolve remained; he wouldn’tallow Mya to visit Madelyn.
