The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning

Chapter 48

Ethan’s car happened to be heading in the opposite direction when he saw the traffic light ahead turn red. Just then, he received a message from Madelyn: [Ethan, where are you?]

Ethan always kept his phone close to him, eagerly anticipating her messages. Whenever he saw her message, he would respond promptly. However, this time he made a deliberate decision to turn off his phone.

George glanced at the rearview mirror. “Is that a message from Ms. Jent? Has she discovered something?”

“Probably… but I don’t want to deceive her,” Ethan neither confirmed nor denied. He wished to wait a little longer, until he could stand on his own two feet once again. Then, she would see him in his entirety, rather than as a broken and disabled man.

George added, “Maybe she wouldn’t mind, though?”

“It’s not about whether she minds or not. I mind. Let’s head back home!” Ethan wearily closed his eyes. The recent incident had been a close call. Fortunately, he had purposely lingered near the hospital entrance. If he had left at that moment, he couldn’t bear to think about what might have happened to Madelyn.

Ethan opened his eyes, a glint of icy determination shining within them. “Notify the police. station. Those three individuals are not to be released without my permission.”
