Female Novel
Chapter 386
Madelyn thought that except for Jadie, Zach didn't seem to have many vulnerabilities. Yet, it was
precisely this that made Jadie his biggest weakness.
Madelyn had expected Zach to be with Jadie. She believed that if it weren't for Jadie, Zach would be
dating Yvonne, using her to achieve his goals. Madelyn had, after all, seen his tactics, which were truly
impressive.
"Why didn't I realize you understand me so perfectly?" Zach smiled, gently tucking Madelyn's long hair
behind her ears.
Madelyn's bright eyes now glistened with tears. The more vulnerable she looked, the more Zach
wanted to assert his power over her in the crudest, foulest manner he sometimes imagined. He wanted
to pin her down on a bed, making her cry in pleasure and pain. These filthy thoughts of his haunted
him, replaying in his dreams night after night. But he couldn't make them real now, as he had yet to
finish what he had to do.
At this moment, Zach's desires for Madelyn were like maggots creeping through the shadows,
gradually closing in on her. She was like a vibrant rose, slowly being overtaken, its petals slowly
devoured.
There were some truths he wished he didn't know.
"But, Madelyn, people can change," Zach said, his tone gentle, leaving Madelyn uncertain of how to
respond. He continued, "Do you truly believe that Ethan loves you? Why are you so naive?"
Madelyn retorted, "Because he hasn't done anything to hurt me. The only one who's been hurting me
all along is you. When I had my surgery, he said he didn't mind if I couldn't have children, and he's
willing to wait until I'm ready to marry him."
"So, you were moved?" Zach inquired.
"Yes!" Madelyn looked at him, her voice trembling. "You know, if Father found out about my health
condition, my fate would be dreadful. Ethan is the only one who can save me. He's so good to me, how
can I not be moved? He's been honest with me. He's never pressured me into anything! You can't evennovelbin
compare to him!"
If Zach really intended to force himself on Madelyn today, she would rather throw herself off the cliff.
She would choose death over encountering him again in this lifetime.
Zach's gaze deepened, and Madelyn couldn't quite tell what he was thinking.
Suddenly, his phone rang. He picked it up, and whatever was said on the other end seemed to really
bother him.
He buckled his seatbelt, turned the steering wheel, and pressed on the gas pedal. On the way back,
they didn't say anything else to each other.
Zach dropped Madelyn off at the school gate and quickly drove off.
By the time she got to her classroom, the first class had already finished.
During recess, Mya came up to her. "Madelyn, are you okay? You look really pale."
