Chapter 230 No Turning Back To The Past

“Josiah, why are you so stubborn?”

“I don’t care. Once I’ve made up my mind, not even a team of oxen could change it. If you don’t let me escort you today, no one is leaving.” Josiah declared. With that, he took a step closer to Madelyn, clearly intent on sticking by her side, come what may.

Madelyn found herself caught between laughter and tears, but she could only agree.

Then, the two of them happily got into the

In the car, Josiah was at the wheel, but his eyes would occasionally flicker toward Madelyn, as though the person in front of him would vanish into thin air at any moment.

“Enough already!” Madelyn expressed her dissatisfaction. “You’ve been watching me all day. Isn’t that enough? Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to. I’m in your car, so it’s not like I’m going to vanish into thin air.”

“Teh, you think I want to keep an eye on you? I’m just worried you’ll head off to that black market alone, and who knows whether you’d come out dead or alive, Josiah huffed arrogantly.

The air inexplicably fell silent for two seconds.

Originally, Madelyn intended to go to the black market alone, not wanting to involve anyone else for fear of causing them trouble.

However, it seemed that Josiah wasn’t going to back down unless she brought him along.

“Pull over,” Madelyn suddenly said, her voice calm.

The vehicle obediently came to a halt.

Madelyn decided to be straightforward. “Josiah, I’ll be honest with you. I am indeed going to the black market tonight. If you really want to accompany me, you can. But remember, we’re not going there to cause trouble. I just want to find out who exactly sold that drug to my sister.”

Just as expected.

In truth, from early this morning, Josiah had a hunch that Madelyn couldn’t possibly be that obedient. She was bound to head to the black market.

That was the reason he insisted on following along.

Although in everyday life, Josiah was known to be a carefree and irreverent scion, when it came down to crucial moments, he still possessed the ability to analyze situations with a cool head.
