Madelyn stood by the roadside, waiting for a ride while contemplating. It seemed like it was going to rain.

Just as she was lost in thought, a sudden rumble of thunder echoed from the horizon, startling Madelyn and making her heart skip a beat

A torrential downpour suddenly began.

The rain came without warning. Madelyn quickly scanned her surroundings, hoping to find a shelter from the downpour, bur all around her were wide roads. She had no place to hide.

What was even more unfortunate was that there wasn’t a single car on the road. Left with no other choice. Madelyn braced herself and stood in the rain, waiting for a ride.

Roughly fifteen minutes later, a taxi finally pulled up slowly beside her. After opening the door. Madelyn hastily climbed into the car.

Inside the car, the air conditioning was still running. Madelyn immediately shivered from the cold, her skin prickling with goosebumps.

At that moment, the driver caught sight of her drenched figure through the rearview mirror and hurriedly handed her a plastic hag

“Put this under you so my seat doesn’t get wet.”

Madelyn took the plastic bag and obediently followed instructions.

Madelyn was completely drenched, her clothes sticking to her body as if she had just been fished out of the water.

Upon seeing this, Lydia hurriedly grabbed a dry towel and approached. “Mrs. Lockhart? Why did you come back drenched?”

As Madelyn shivered, she shook her head to indicate that she was fine.

Upon seeing her in this state, Lydia couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache. She quickly said. “The meal is just ready. Mrs. Lockhart. Why don’t you go upstairs and change your clothes, then come down for dinner!”

Madelyn nodded. Then, she ascended the stairs to return to her room.
