Reborn to My Engagement Night

Chapter 136 Please Let Me Explain

Only then did Sebastian finally rest easy,

He glanced at Madelyn, his expression still as icy as ever.

Madelyn had just opened her mouth to speak when a flurry of hurried footsteps suddenly echoed from the corridor outside.

They belonged to none other than her father, her stepmother, Regina, and her stepsister, Eunice.

“Maddie!” Derek was the first one to step into the ward.

Upon entering, the sight of Madelyn lying in bed with her knee heavily bandaged instantly left him too frantic to utter a single word.

Unable to hold himself back, he immediately launched into a lecture as he stepped forward. “Maddie, were you sick of living? Didn’t you realize how dangerous it was to run off alone to the southern suburbs, a place teeming with evil people? There are all kinds of people there! Why didn’t you consider your safety?”

Seeing her father so anxious, Madelyn bit her lip, feeling incredibly guilty.

“Dad, I’m sorry for having worried you, but I had my reasons for going there,” Madelyn explained softly.

“What reasons?” Regina suddenly interjected. “If you ask me, you must have been restless and merely ran off to have fun!”

Upon hearing that, Madelyn shot her a glare. “How is that any of your business?”

What a blabbermouth! She just has to comment on everything!

Pretentiously, Regina retorted, “Do you think I’d bother with you if it weren’t for your father? Given your ungrateful attitude, I wouldn’t even want to invite trouble upon myself. But do you know how worried your father was about you? He has high blood pressure in the first place. Are you determined to kill him?”

As she spoke, she seemingly choked up.

“Shut up!”

Madelyn was already irritated by her voice. Thus, her pretentious sobbing only served to exacerbate her

annoyance.
