Chapter 169 Cover It Up

Silence filled the scene for a moment.

Sebastian furrowed his brows, his gaze steady yet unfocused, seemingly lost in the recollection of the events from the previous night.

Madelyn studied him with keen interest, showing no signs of rush, quietly appreciating his expressions.

His sensitive eyebrows remained furrowed, his lips pressed into a straight line, and his gaze was notably more profound than usual. All in all, his expression was somewhat grave.

Later on, he even seemed somewhat flustered and disoriented as he thought about something.

After a long while, Sebastian finally lifted his head to look at Madelyn with anxiety. “I…”

“Hmm?” Madelyn grinned. “What’s wrong with you?”

“I… I… I…” Sebastian stammered for quite some time, yet he couldn’t utter a single word.

It was truly bizarre. Sebastian couldn’t remember a thing about what happened last night. Yet, he felt like he was caught red–handed in a scandalous act.

Madelyn’s intriguing gaze especially made him feel strangely anxious.

For a moment, Sebastian felt a pang of guilt, yet he was at a loss for how to explain.

After staring at him for a while, Madelyn was unable to hold back her laughter. “Forget it. You can’t even form a complete sentence. I forgive you, for I am a magnanimous woman. Besides, you were drunk at that time, weren’t you? You didn’t know what happened, so how could you explain anything? Considering that, I’ll let this slide.”

Madelyn’s smile was radiant and dazzling, much like the sunlight streaming in through the window. It was as refreshing as a spring breeze, bringing about an utmost sense of comfort.

While Madelyn didn’t mind, Sebastian was somewhat perplexed.

Based on Madelyn’s previously domineering nature, he was certain she wouldn’t have let things go without causing a huge commotion.

As such, he was confounded that she forgave him that easily.

As Sebastian thought about that, he slightly furrowed his brows and asked with a hint of surprise, “Do you really trust me?”
