Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 335

"Maddie, you're really clingy." Ellie's comment made me a bit embarrassed. But she then added playfully," But I really like it."

"Kid, you're so annoying," I teased, giving her a mock scolding. She burst into giggles.

I stepped out of the ward and glanced down the corridor. It was empty.

Since Ellie mentioned that Brandon was taking a call, he had to have gone somewhere less crowded. After a moment of thought, I headed toward the emergency stairs.

As I approached, I heard Brandon's voice.

"The car repair shop is gone, but the mechanics should still be around. Find a way to track them down... Of course, it's necessary. I need to clear things up with Madeline and clear my father's name." My heart tightened slightly upon hearing this.

Over the past few days, I had been debating whether to investigate the brake issue from the accident further. But it seemed that he was already doing that.

As soon as he finished the call, I was about to approach him when his phone rang again, so I stopped.

The door to the emergency stairs was slightly ajar. I saw Brandon holding a cigarette between his fingers as he answered the phone, "You're
