Chapter 141 Making Amends

Finished

Madelyn was already unwell, and at that moment, she felt a bit dizzy. She had no choice but to rest her forehead on Sebastian’s shoulder, nestling her entire body against him.

Under the warmth of cascading water, two slender figures clung together, presenting an image reminiscent of a couple posing for a provocative photoshoot.

However, Sebastian quickly turned off the water. Reaching out to touch Madelyn’s head, he asked in a deep voice, “Are you all right?”

Madelyn silently nodded, her voice as soft as a whisper. “Yes. I’m fine.”

However, she still looked incredibly frail, her complexion as pale as a sheet of sketch paper, devoid of any color:

Sebastian looked at her, feeling a pang of heartache.

A few seconds later, Sebastian deftly grabbed a dry towel from the wall, gently wrapping it around Madelyn’s drenched body.

Then he stepped out, gently placing her delicate body onto the couch.

“I’ll get the hairdryer,” Sebastian said, noticing her hair was dripping wet.

“No need.” Madelyn gently declined.

She had finally managed to gather herself. Seeing Sebastian completely drenched, she couldn’t bear to let him continue to fuss over her.

Hence, she said, “Sebastian, stop fussing over me. You should go and take a shower yourself. Don’t catch a cold. I’ll be fine just wiping down with a towel.”

With that, she casually grabbed a towel and began to dry her hair.

Having just recovered from an illness, her strength was not fully returned. Therefore, she could only clean slowly, bit by bit.

After observing for a few seconds, Sebastian finally couldn’t bear it any longer. Assertively, he took the towel from her, stating, “Let me do it.”

“But you…” Madelyn noticed that he was drenched from head to toe and thought he was freezing.

However, the comforting intensity from her head left her no room to resist.

Sebastian remained silent, patiently drying her hair. His movements were neither too gentle nor too harsh, efficient without causing a mess.

Madelyn felt somewhat flabbergasted in her heart. Wasn’t he still angry with me last night? How come he’s being so nice to me now? Could it be that Sebastian thinks my illness was caused by him? Is his display of gratitude an attempt to compensate me?

With that in mind Madelen obediente conlad drum and remained
