Madelyn pushed Kevin away right after he hung up the phone and said, “You aren’t a good personeither.”
“Ms. Jent!” Kevin held the ring but was one step short of stopping her. Madelyn walked into the elevatorwithout stopping.
Zach chased out. Then, he handed Dalton to the bodyguard and asked, “Where is she?”
Kevin said, “I just came up, but Ma’am has already gone down.”
The well-planned wedding photoshoot was disrupted. Fortunately, Madelyn had already arrived atSouthern Haven Villas when Zach returned. They both arrived within minutes of each other. Zachexited the car, and the bodyguard carrying Dalton followed, handing Dalton to the servant uponentering.
Margaret watched as one after another rushed in without knowing what had happened. ‘
Wasn’t today the day for Mr. and Mrs. Jardin to take wedding photos? Why did they come back soearly?’
Zach asked, “Where is Madelyn?”
Margaret replied, “She has already gone upstairs.”
Zach chased upstairs and opened the bedroom door. This time, what flew in was not a pillow but avase placed on the dressing table. The vase was an antique that Zach had won at the charity auctionthe last time, and it was valuable. Not only that but all the furniture and decorations in the bedroomwere custom-made luxury items.
Zach endured a hit. Then, he walked over with a solemn expression. Seeing the silk nightgown on thefloor, he bent down, picked it up, and patted it before placing it aside.
“Are you still letting her get under your skin, even after all this time? Madelyn, when will you ever learnto be smarter?”
Madelyn closed her eyes and tightly clasped her hands on her lap, nails digging into her palms. Thepain in her heart overwhelmed the physical discomfort, spreading throughout her body. She tried tocontrol her emotions and asked, “Didn’t you send her abroad? Why was she back?”
Zach walked over, half kneeling beside her, and held her hand. He smoothed her palm and looked intoher eyes calmly. Madelyn lowered her gaze, and her eyes filled with disappointment for him. “Wasn’tthat the promise you made to me? That she wouldn’t appear again? Zach, how many of your words aretrue? Since you indulge her so much, why force me to take these wedding photos? It would be moresuitable for both of you to do it together! Let go of me, don’t touch me!”
Zach’s brows and eyes eased at her reaction. Then, he asked gently, “Are you jealous? Angry?”
Madelyn felt irritated seeing him now and wanted to get up and stay away from him. She sneered, “Youreally think I’d be angry?”
Zach chuckled, “Yeah, so you aren’t angry,” he said, playing along with her words. However, the nextsecond, he lifted her up horizontally.
“What are you doing? Let me down.”
Zach carried her to the bed and said, “You don’t have to take the wedding photos if you don’t want to.”
He leaned over, kissed her forehead, then covered her with a quilt. “You woke up early today. Take anap now. I’ll reschedule the photo shoot.”.
‘Just like that?’ No matter what fuss Madelyn made or whenever she refused to shoot, Zach wouldforce her to go even if he had to carry her there.
Now, Cecilia had come to make a fuss, and he simply brushed it off.
Madelyn stared thoughtfully at a place. In her mind, she had long figured out what was going

‘Zach still cares about Cecilia’s thoughts. If he still can’t let go of Cecilia, what’s the purpose of Zachmarrying me this time? Is it because Cecilia wants to experience the satisfaction of seeing mecompletely defeated again, so Zach’s repeated statements of wanting to marry me are just a trap?’
