Female Novel
Chapter 591
Following the doctor's instructions, Madelyn brewed herbal tonic in the backyard, keeping busy for over
an hour.
A servant came up to her, "Miss Jent, let us do that for you. It's our job, and you shouldn't have to do
it."
"I'm okay," Madelyn said, "you can do other stuff."
Right then, another servant told her, "Miss Jent, Mr. Arnold is here, and Mr. Jardin is talking to him."
"Got it, I'll be there in a moment."
After preparing the tonic, Madelyn took it to her room upstairs. Instead of going downstairs, she asked
a servant to get Ethan for her.
In her room, there were photos from their engagement party on the table. There was also a covered
painting in one corner. She had wanted to give it to Ethan during their party, but he wasn't there, so she
kept it.
When Ethan came into the room, he quickly hugged her from behind, burying his face in her neck,
smelling her hair.
"I've been so busy with work and couldn't come to see you. When are you leaving? I want to spend
time with you."
Madelyn pulled away from his hug, her face not showing any feelings. "I might not go to Paris now. My
father is sick, and I need to stay and look after him. The doctor thinks he'll be better in three months."
Ethan furrowed his brow. "There are plenty of servants in this house; you don't need to waste your time
here. Painting is something you've always wanted to do. If you're worried, we can have him taken to
the hospital. My people will oversee it personally."novelbin
Madelyn looked at him silently, suddenly unable to speak.
Her gaze made Ethan somewhat uneasy.
He smiled slightly. "Why are you looking at me like that? What's on your mind?"
Madelyn shook her head quietly. "Thank you."
"Don't be silly," Ethan replied, "We're going to be family. Your father will be my father-in-law. I should
help."
Ethan kept his promise and moved Hayson to a hospital linked with the Arnold Corporation. He even
arranged bodyguards for him. However, Madelyn was firm that Hayson should continue with his herbal
drinks, as the doctor suggested. She deeply wished for his recovery.
With Hayson around, she knew Zach would still be cautious with his actions.
Ethan was right; she couldn't give up what she wanted for the sake of certain matters.
She decided she wouldn't depend on others anymore.
Later, Ethan took her to a fancy French dinner place. She never really liked that restaurant. Her steak
tasted like rubber.
Suddenly, Ethan's phone kept ringing on the table. He looked at it but ignored the call.
Even though the phone kept buzzing, Ethan was very kind, cutting her steak for her.
The phone calls kept coming in, one after the other.
Madelyn finally said, "You should pick it up. It sounds important."
Ethan nodded. "Stay here, I'll be right back."
Madelyn didn't respond.
Ethan quickly stepped into a quieter hallway and picked up the call, his face showing his annoyance.
"Can't it wait until I get back?"
Donna's voice was shaky. "Ethan, Robin's sick again, really bad."
He glanced around, making sure he was alone. "Then get the family doctor."
"We did, but nothing's helping. He keeps calling out for you. He's been given medicine for his fever, but
he won't calm down. His hands are even bleeding from trying to fight people off. Ethan, we both need
you here."
"I'll be there," Ethan said, ending the call and heading back to where they were eating.
When he got back, Madelyn's chair was empty.
Worried, Ethan looked around the restaurant, trying to find her. He grabbed a waiter walking by, "Did
you see where the lady I was with went?"
The waiter said, "She paid the bill and left. She mentioned something about an emergency at home."
Ethan quickly asked, "How long ago did she go?"
