The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 418

“Miss Jent, didn’t Mr. Arnold come downstairs with you?” asked the servant. Madelyn replied, “He’s probably still asleep.”

“When I went to wake him up earlier, his room was empty.” When Madelyn thought about how Ethan had gone out last night and hadn’t returned all night, a hint of unease flashed across Madelyn’s face.

She said, “Maybe he had some work stuff to attend to, so he went out early.”

“I see.” As Madelyn left, she couldn’t shake the feeling of unease. ‘I wonder if it’s because of the exam tomorrow. I’m feeling a bit nervous.’ At eight ‘o clock, students started to arrive at Ventrocloud High School.

“Did you hear about the incident at Supreme World yesterday? Randall Burton was beaten to death.”

“I saw it; I was at Supreme World at the time. But I don’t know who did it. Police cars and ambulances all showed up. I heard from the room service staff that there was blood everywhere on the ground. Randall Burton is likely to be disabled now.”

“I wonder who he messed with to get beaten so badly.” A girl in the same school uniform, holding a magazine, joined the conversation, “Look at this, there’s breaking news.”

“Holy cow?! Ethan Arnold was the one who beat Randall Burton. Who was he holding by the way? Doesn’t look like Madelyn at all!”

On the magazine cover, Ethan was holding a girl with long blonde hair, wearing a black coat. The paparazzi didn’t capture the woman’s face clearly; the photo only showed a vague profile, and from her figure, she didn’t resemble Madelyn at all.

Many girls held the same magazine in their hands. They all seemed to be thinking the same thing, ‘Oh my goodness, the assaulter can’t be Ethan Arnold, right?’

Randall was also a rich kid in their social circle, and his wild antics were well-known. People speculated that this blonde woman had caught Randall’s eye, and Ethan had come to her rescue, taking her out of the hotel.

The magazine that published this story was the same one that had previously captured Madelyn and Ethan together.

Madelyn got wind of this incident too. Since it had become quite a sensation, topics about Ethan were popping up on her phone. She scrolled through the paparazzi’s photos, thinking, ‘So, Ethan went to rescue Donna last night.’

Even though she felt a bitter mix of emotions, she had been through this kind of thing dozens of times, so her heart had long become numb.

Madelyn decided to switch off her phone and remove the battery to concentrate on her practice exercises. Kennedy approached her, holding a stack of the latest practice books. He then tossed to Madelyn. “Your phone is spoilt?”

“It’s okay. Still usable.”

Since their last conversation, Kennedy had been gradually talking more with Madelyn. She understood why Lem had called him a “freak.” Within the school, he had won numerous awards. Outside of school, he had even started his own tech studio. While it wasn’t large in scale, it had already made quite a bit of money and had patented technologies.

Madelyn thought it was really cool how he managed to do well in school without making it his whole life.

“Feeling nervous about the exam tomorrow?” Madelyn asked, looking at him. He, in a white hoodie, scratched the back of his neck. “Nah, not really. It’s just a regular test for me. If you’re worried, you can practice more with those basic workbooks.”

‘When a genius talks, it’s different,’ she thought. These were practice books you couldn’t easily replace in regular stores. Kennedy had given them all to her, so Madelyn thanked him.

After that, he and Lem headed to the field to play ball. Madelyn, on the other hand, pushed aside all distractions and got to work on her exercises.

When she saw the photo of Ethan and Donna together, deep down, she had thought, ‘If they really get back together, maybe I’d be happy for them.’
