Chapter 234 Listening To Your Heartbeat

Frushed

“Wow, Madelyn. I didn’t expect you to have this trick your sleeve. This time, Josiah was thoroughly impressed.

At that moment, Madelyn was panting heavily. Dismissively, she waved her hand and said, “What’s the big deal? If I wasn’t worried about making enemies, I’d have loved to pick a fight with them.”

After she finished speaking. Madelyn glanced around and noticed a faucet not too far away.

Immediately, she walked over and vigorously washed Her face a few times with the scoops of water she had

collected.

“Come on, is this really necessary?” Josiah was grumbling on the side, finding it hard to watch. “Can’t you wash up after we go home?”

Madelyn, however, waved her hand. “No, I can’t go home looking like this.”

Having said that, she thoroughly washed her face several times with great effort. She then took out a mirror from her bag and checked, ensuring that she had completely removed her makeup. Only then did she consider it done.

By the time they returned to the Thornton residence, it was well past midnight.

Madelyn, carrying her change of clothes, swiftly entered the house. It had been an exhausting day, and she needed to get some sleep as soon as possible.

The moment she pushed open the room’s door, she was shocked! The bag she was holding, filled with her disguise, almost slipped from her grasp and fell to the floor.

“S–Sebastian, why are you here?” Madelyn asked, her voice faltering inexplicably, a hint of unease creeping into her tone due to her guilt.

At that moment, Sebastian was casually seated on the couch, his legs crossed. The way he looked at Madelyn was particularly intent.

“Why did you return so late? Where have you been?” Even his voice was icy cold to the extreme.

In reality, ever since Sebastian couldn’t find her at Lockhart Villa in the afternoon, he had been waiting over here for her.

From seven in the evening to the stroke of midnight, a total of five hours, he had been quietly waiting for her right here….

Madelyn bit her lip helplessly, feeling utterly embarrassed.

However, just yesterday, she had promised Sebastian she wouldn’t go to the black market. If she were to admit she had gone there now, wouldn’t Sebastian be furious?

With this in mind, Madelyn took a deep breath, steeling herself before saying, “L… I’ve been rehearsing at school all this time.”
