Chapter 652

Zach said, "I'll have the hotel staff bring you breakfast later."

He was aware that Madelyn was already awake. He left the room after covering her with the blanket.

At the door, Zach stopped walking and instructed his bodyguard, "Keep an eye on her."

The bodyguard responded, "Okay."

Zach left, but the bodyguard continued monitoring her.

At eight in the morning, a hotel staff knocked on the door with a breakfast cart beside her. She said,

"Miss, Mr. Jardin ordered breakfast for you. It's here. I'll bring it in for you."

Then, a loud sound could be heard. It seemed like something had hit the door.

After that, Madelyn's voice was heard from inside the room, "Don't come in. Get lost!"

The hotel staff was in a dilemma. She responded, "But Mr. Jardin asked me to watch you while you

finish your breakfast."

Madelyn's eyes were slightly red. She sat on the bed, covering her ears. She did not want to listen to

the voice outside. Then, she ran into the cloakroom and closed the door to block out the noise.

Other than the voice of the hotel staff, there was also a vibrating sound from her phone on the bedside

table.

Clement had called Madelyn a few times, but she did not answer any of them.

He said, "Prof. Monet, Madelyn isn't answering the call. Could something have happened to her?"

After years of working hard, Leonardo had aged considerably. Some of his sideburns had turned white.

His eyes had noticeably sunken.

Leonardo, Clement, and Jane were inside the office.

Leonardo partially clenched his fist and put it in front of his mouth as he coughed. When Jane saw that,novelbin

she handed him a glass of water. Leonardo waved his hand and did not take it, "The plagiarism issue

isn't a trivial matter, but why did you fire her without investigating it thoroughly?!

"Since when have you become so reckless?"

Jane nearly spilled the glass of water in her hand. In the end, she managed to place it on the table

steadily.

After that, she stood in front of Leonardo's desk and said with a calm expression, "Encounter Gaming

released the notice regarding the plagiarism. Madelyn's composition was very similar to the artist's

work. I did that to preserve the studio's reputation.

"You've worked so hard on the studio. I can't just let it be ruined."

"Your intention isn't bad. But you all know that Madelyn is my only apprentice, and you fired her without

my consent. Since when did your level of authority become so significant?" Leonardo calmly said but

looked very serious as he stared at Jane.

Jane's heart skipped a beat. She said in a disbelieving tone, "Prof. Monet, do you think this is my fault

too?

"But it's clearly her fault. Not only did she waste everyone's time, but..."

Leonardo interrupted her with disappointment, "That's enough! Aside from Madelyn, you're the one I

value the most among so many students. But now you've greatly disappointed me."

Jane responded, "Prof. Monet... I–!"

Without looking at her, Leonardo said, "Clement, from now on, you'll take over the studio from Jane."

Clement nodded, "Yes, Prof. Monet."

After Leonardo left, Jane felt like her soul was sucked away. She said, "Prof. Monet..."

Clement looked at Jane as he shook his head. He sighed before he said, "Don't you understand by

now? What Prof. Monet wants to see isn't just your execution ability. Compared to that, he prefers to

see us getting along, being able to work together, and not just pointing fingers when something bad

happens. Madelyn is Prof. Monet's apprentice. Even if she was to be fired, it shouldn't be you who fired

her.

"You've really made a mistake this time."

Jane slowly regained her senses, "You are all just afraid of Madelyn. Stop saying all these pretty

words."
