Chapter 730

Madelyn gave Cecilia a cold glance as she walked past. Cecilia shrugged it off.

“Yvonne reminds me of how you were in our past life. Both pitiful and laughable. Now you’ve taken my

place. Feels good being on top, right? Seeing Yvonne kneel in the rain all night must be a familiar

sight.” Cecilia’s tone was a mix of mockery and curiosity.

She thought Madelyn had returned from a past life, given how close she and Zach had become. In the

past, Madelyn had pleaded with Cecilia just for a chance to be near Zach, and Cecilia still

remembered it all.

Madelyn responded coldly, “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

As Cecilia watched Madelyn walk away, her lips curling into a smirk. novelbin

‘Madelyn, I hope you’re smarter this time around,’ she mused.

When Cecilia opened the door, Zach was still on the bed. “I need to talk to you, Zach.”

Sitting up, Zach fixed his pajama buttons. “Out.”

Cecilia raised an eyebrow. “Can’t I come in?”

He gave her a stern look. “Didn’t I make myself clear? Wait outside.”

She hesitated for a moment and then replied, “I’ll wait outside.”

In the kitchen, as Madelyn cooked, Giovanna approached her. “Ms. Jent, I found him. He’s in one of the

maid rooms, but he’s fine. A doctor’s with him, so no worries.”

With the other maids preoccupied, Madelyn asked, “Has he been given food and medicine?”

Giovanna shook her head. “He hasn’t eaten anything. If he doesn’t eat or drink soon, he could. get

even sicker. Thankfully, his injury isn’t severe.”

“Can you see him?” Madelyn asked.

Giovanna thought briefly. “I think I can get into the room. What do you want me to do?”

“I’ll make some cream soup. Could you take it to him and make sure he eats?”

Giovanna nodded. “Of course.”

While the maids were busy preparing a hangover remedy for Yvonne, Madelyn prepared a bottle of

milk to take to Dalton upstairs. She then rummaged through the fridge, gathering ingredients to make

pumpkin cream soup. As she reached for a knife, dizziness washed over her, and her surroundings

became blurry. Taking a deep breath, she fought to stay conscious. While Madelyn busied herself in the

kitchen, none of the other maids offered assistance, each preoccupied with their own tasks. By the time

Zach and Cecilia wrapped up their discussion upstairs, Madelyn had stewed the pumpkin cream soup

for an hour. She filled a container with the hot cream soup. In order not to arouse suspicion, Madelyn

had made extra, leaving half of it still in the pot.

Zach and Cecilia descended the stairs, discussing their business. “Handle the business dealings with

the Young family as you think best. If anyone asks, make sure everyone at the company tells the same

story,” Zach instructed.

This partnership was helping Jardin Corporation gain an advantage over YTCorp.

“When have I ever disappointed you?” Cecilia smirked.

“Return to the office. Call me if there’s an issue.”

“Will do.”

The voice was loud enough for Madelyn to hear. Madelyn, sensing their approach, quickly concealed

the container in a cabinet, but Zach noticed her swift action.
