In the bustling streets, commuters rushed to catch the train with the same newspapers in their hands. However, no one paid too much attention to the inconspicuous news.

Today was Friday, Madelyn woke up relatively late and had not gone out.

A servant grabbed the morning newspaper from the mailbox and put it on the tea table in accordance with Ethan’s habit. Madelyn, who was dressed in her school uniform, poured a glass of orange juice in the kitchen before walking out. She happened to see the newspaper and picked it up to glance at it.

The servant said, “Mr. Arnold.”

Ethan was buttoning his sleeves as he walked downstairs in an upright posture. He was as handsome as ever, “If you don’t want to go to school, you don’t have to. I can hire the best private tutor to come here. It’s the same studying at home.”

Madelyn responded, “It’s okay. I can’t just stay at home all day and do nothing.”

Madelyn saw the news about Randall.

She continued to walk forward without changing her expression. She was not feeling any particular emotion. She was somewhat surprised by Randall’s death. She was then lost in her thoughts, ‘Wasn’t he sent to the hospital after being beaten up by Ethan? I thought it was said that he couldn’t be rescued.

“I didn’t expect to read about him in the newspaper. Did Ethan send someone to do this? Ingested caustic soda? Could it be Zach? Madelyn quickly pushed aside these thoughts.

She went forward to adjust the brooch on Ethan’s chest. It had a red gemstone in the middle, framed by diamonds. The chain dangling in front of his chest made Ethan look even more dignified.

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” Ethan noticed Madelyn’s emotion was off. He stretched his hand to touch her
