The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning by Max Charming Chapter 1272
Madelyn wondered, ‘Why’d Zach allow Jardin Corporation’s shares to be sold? Is he still unconscious in the hospital?’
On the vast seaside, waves were surging and crashing against the shore. There was a little girl with a ponytail. She was around eight years old, barefoot, and wearing clothes made of seaweed and fish skin. She was holding a necklace made of seashells. The girl unsteadily walked up to Madelyn and spoke in fluent Roshyian.
This location was in a secluded village. The village was built very close to the mountain. The little girl said to Madelyn, “Hi. This bracelet is for you.”
According to local legend, this place used to be a barren desert. Once the daughter of a god made a grievous mistake and as punishment, was sentenced to wander here for eternity. She could not find a water source and eventually died of thirst, her body turning into the sea that surrounded and nourished this area. The people here believed that the seashells and conches they found in this place were blessed, and if they were made into jewelry and given to someone, it would bring blessings and protection to that person.
Here, giving someone a seashell bracelet was not just an expression of feelings but also a way of courtship.
Madelyn received a text from Kai: [The person really liked the bracelet you sent last time. Thank you.]
Madelyn hesitated while typing on her phone. She wanted to ask Kai about Zach’s situation. It had been so long, and she had not revealed any information about Zach to any media outlets. The only news about Zach was on the day after their wedding when an official account falsely claimed that Madelyn and Zach were on their honeymoon and that no one knew their whereabouts.
Apart from that, there had not been any news about Zach.
Madelyn had always been feeling uneasy ever since coming here. Back then in the wedding room at Eternal Seasons, the dagger plunged into Zach’s chest causing both their bodies to be covered in blood, including her hands. That night, no matter how she washed her hands, she could not get rid of the blood stains on her palms.
After some internal struggle, Madelyn finally asked Kai the question on her mind: [Is he okay?]
The little girl said, “Come play with me.
Madelyn, holding the little girl’s hand, stood up and walked toward the beautiful seaside. She casually took some photos with her phone and shared them online using a private account. She had posted pictures of her life using this account in recent days, documenting her activities. Her profile picture was just an ordinary ocean. All the texts and images were visible only to herself.
The sea breeze tousled her hair and lifted her skirt as she walked with the barefoot little girl. Then, Madelyn’s phone vibrated, and she looked at the message: [He’ll wake up very soon, don’t worry. Live your life without guilt. ]
Upon looking at it, Madelyn finally let go of the guilt she had been carrying with her. The place she was at was safe, and isolated from the world. No one would come to this place, and no one would leave this place either.
Madelyn could experience a free and happy life here.
Kai was unsurprised that Madelyn was aware of the news about Jardin Corporation. After all, the changes in Jardin Corporation had caused quite a stir in international news outlets. Kai thought, ‘Even if Zach wakes up to find that Jardin Corporation had collapsed, he won’t care about it. He probably knew this would happen. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken such a risk and ended up so miserable.
‘Zach, I’ve done all I can for you. From now on, I won’t interfere in your affairs with Madelyn. Whether you can win her back, it’ll all depend on you.’
The nanny walked in from outside. ” Mr. Stewart, everything is packed. Do you need me to get a taxi?”
Kai put away his phone and stood up.” No need. Someone will come to pick you all up later. You and Lana can leave the hospital together later.”
The nanny asked, “Aren’t you leaving with us?”
