Female Novel
Chapter 671
Madelyn crouched down to look at the bouquet of flowers that had not withered yet, and it looked just
like the one she was holding. She wiped her fingers on the tombstone and realized that it was clean,
and the weeds around it seemed to have been cleared a few days ago too.
She figured that it could not possibly be her father because he had moved to Sinagora with Jasmine
very long ago.
Who could it be then?
There was no picture on the tombstone and only her mother's name, Alicia Wood, was engraved on it.
Alicia was indeed the most beautiful woman of her time, otherwise, the upper-class circle of Ventropolis
would not have crowned her as the prettiest lady.
And Madelyn had inherited every part of her mother's beauty.
Zach stood at the side while smoking in the wind. Madelyn only stood up after he had finished his third
cigarette. "Mom, very soon... we'll meet again," she said.
'I finally met you after so long,' she whispered.
"Let's go home," she told Zach.
A thunder sounded from the sky, and it was going to rain very soon.
They would have a more difficult time going down the hill if they were to stay any longer.
"Don't you have anything else you want to say?"
Madelyn shook her head. "It's okay. Let's get going."
The sky had turned completely dark when they returned to the car. Once inside, Madelyn took out the
blazer, handed it back to him, and said, "Thank you."novelbin
Zach grabbed it and put it over her legs. "It's getting cold."
His expression remained calm as he spoke.
Madelyn looked out of the window without saying anything in response.
Kevin started the car and drove to The Deli. The manager knew that Zach was coming and immediately
greeted him as soon as they arrived. He smiled and bowed at him while extending his arm toward the
entrance.
"Mr. Jardin, your private room is ready."
Zach stepped closer to Madelyn and wrapped his arm around her waist. Madelyn glared at him in
displeasure as she wanted to keep a distance from him when so many people were looking. However,
she just could not break free.
Back then, everyone in town knew that Zach and Yvonne got engaged, yet he came to dine with
another woman...
Madelyn knew very well what Zach was trying to do.
Everyone that was looking at her with strange eyes kept quiet. After all, there was nothing surprising
about a wealthy man having a secret lover. It was the norm.
Besides, Zach was on his way to becoming the richest man in Ventropolis.
Under the crowd's gaze, Zach brought Madelyn to a luxurious private room that had been renovated
recently.
The waiters came in with various dishes one after another while the manager stood at the side to serve
them. He ladled some soup into a bowl for Madelyn and placed it in front of her, "Ms. Jent, we know
that you love the food here, and we even rewarded the chef.
"This is a new dish we just introduced, bluefin tuna freshly caught from Cavern Lake. The name for this
dish is "The Royal Catch".
Instead of trying it, Madelyn said to the manager, "No need to introduce the dishes to us. You can go
about your business.
The manager looked at the man seated beside her. Zach waved his hand at him. Then, he went out of
the room and closed the door, giving them some private space.
As soon as the manager stepped outside, he said to the two waiters standing at the door in a serious
tone, "The people inside are very important guests. Be sure to take good care of them. If you make
even a single mistake, you can forget about your salary for this month."
