Chapter 392

The next morning, as Zach and Jadie shared the same car, Jadie sat grumpily in the passenger seat. They didn’t exchange a single word during the entire ride.

Zach rested his eyes, sensing the unusual silence. Upon arriving at the school gate, Jadie didn’t utter a single word. She simply opened the car door and stepped out.

Kevin reminded her, “Ms. White, your breakfast.”

Jadie ignored him and went straight into the school.

Kevin, worried, said, “Mr. Jardin, Ms. White is still young. Maybe… you should try to be a bit more understanding?”

Zach’s eyes blinked open, and as he glanced around, he spotted a familiar figure in the distance.

Madelyn was holding a paper bag filled with fried gnocchi from a roadside stall while sipping on a cup of hot chocolate. As she walked, a dog suddenly ran up to her and barked. Startled, she dropped her fried gnocchi on the ground. She panicked and even spilled her hot chocolate, then quickly ran into the school.

A security guard promptly chased the dog away when he spotted it. Madelyn put some distance between herself and the dog, and when she looked back, she felt relieved to see that it hadn’t followed her.
