Chapter 401

Madelyn still did not know that Ethan was extremely worried and was looking for her everywhere in Ventropolis.

The first ray of morning light shone in from the window. Street vendors had already started their businesses in the street of the quiet old building. The scent of food could be smelled from a nearby location.

The quietness in the residential area was broken by several luxurious black cars that came and stopped there.

George said, “Ms. Jent stayed here when she left her home. I think she’s probably here now.”

Ethan had not slept the entire night. He desperately got out of the car and tightly frowned as he looked around at the extremely poor housing condition. He thought, ‘How can she stay here?!

This staircase is full of dust. And I can feel that this building is extremely unstable. This kind of housing should already be considered a dangerous building. Yet, there are still people living here.‘

Madelyn came out of the bathroom and dried her hair. She then removed the sofa cover that had been dirtied last night and threw it into a basin for cleaning.

She had a very bad headache. She thought it was probably because she caught a cold yesterday. Whatever happened last night did not bother Madelyn. She fell asleep very quickly yesterday.

When she woke up this morning, her nose was stuffy. Ever since the surgery, Madelyn felt that her body was weaker than before.

Just then, she could hear someone knocking on the door from outside. She did not know who it could be as she opened the door.

Before she could even react to the person outside, he suddenly hugged her tightly. She patted his shoulder as she said, “Ethan, you’re hurting me! Why did you come here?”

Ethan felt lucky and relieved when he saw her. He said, “I’m sorry!”

Madelyn did not understand what he meant. When she saw Leyton and George, who came with Ethan, she thought, ‘Did they really have to come with him?!‘

Ethan only let go of her after a while.

Madelyn installed a clean sofa cover before the three of them sat on it. Madelyn poured Ethan a cup of boiled water and placed it on the coffee table in front of him. She then sat down in front of him and said, “I’m sorry for making you guys worry. School ended very late last night. It was a little troublesome to go back. So, I decided to stay here for a night.
