Chapter 13 You Brought This Upon Yourself

8 Pearls

Upon being suddenly kissed, Sebastian was somewhat a loss for words. Immediately after, his brows. furrowed tightly.

He felt his throat tightened, ready to unleash a reprimand. However, despite the raging emotions in his chest, he was surprisingly unable to utter a single word

As for Madelyn, she acted as if nothing had happened and had begun to bury her head in her homework.

Sebastian looked over and noticed her intense focus. She seemed to be engrossed in her studies, wracking her brain to absorb every single detail.

He had never seen her in such a state before. It truly was a first.

All this while, Madelyn has been famous as a capricious young lady. Her carefree yet rash demeanor is such that her presence anywhere was enough to give people a headache. Even though a significant change has occurred, I still don’t know what is on her mind. Is it just a spontaneous whim, or is it a new trick up her sleeve?

After some thought, Sebastian decided he couldn’t be bothered to ponder any further. Regardless of her intentions, the outcome would always be the same–he would never let her leave his side.

And so, without uttering another word, he lowered his gaze to focus on his documents.

For a moment, the atmosphere was unusually quiet. The two individuals were each engrossed in their own activities, maintaining a mutual understanding of not disturbing each other.

However, it wasn’t long before this tranquility was shattered.

Sebastian didn’t refuse. He took the textbook, glanced at the problem, and then gave Madelyn a detailed explanation.

Though Madelyn was usually nonchalant, it was surprising how sharp she was. Whatever Sebastian said, she could immediately understand.

Moreover, any part that Madelyn understood, she would immediately jot down. Her handwriting was neat and tidy, pleasing to the eyes. It was also quite fitting with her image.

Sebastian subsequently set aside his work, silently observing her for a while. He discovered that Madelyn. was indeed much smarter than he had imagined, for she had grasped many–concepts in a short time.
