Chapter 238

Madelyn stopped in her tracks when she realized it was George calling her. She wondered, ‘ Why is Ethan at the school at this time?’

However, she had no choice but to get into Ethan’s car, taking the passenger seat.

The car was warm, thanks to the air conditioning.

Sitting in the car, Ethan appeared pale and weak. He had his hand pressed against his mouth, coughing a few times. His breathing was labored, as if he was feeling uncomfortable.

Neither of them spoke. After a while, Madelyn broke the silence, “Why are you here today? You’re not feeling well. Do you need to go to the hospital?” she said with concern.

“It’s just a common cold, nothing serious,” Ethan replied.

Madelyn nodded in response.

Ethan’s voice was soft as he asked, “Yesterday, Yvonne mentioned that Mr. Jardin couldn’t find you when he was here to pick you up after school. Where did you go?”

“He was here to pick me up?” Madelyn responded, a bit puzzled. She wondered, ‘Wasn’t he here for Yvonne?”
