Back in Time to Fall for Him novel Chapter 106

Janet wasn't completely sure she could get Sam's itinerary, but she moved fast and pulled every favor she had. After a lot of back-and-forth, she finally got it.

"Miss Heiress, Edmund wasn't lying to you. Mr. Goodwin really did catch a flight to Marowa this evening."

Madison's hand tightened around her phone as she listened to Janet's voice.

So Edmund hadn't lied. Sam was really done with her.

Madison's breath hitched. She pressed a hand to her chest, pulling in huge, shaky breaths.

Janet could hear Madison struggling to breathe on the other end. Her breaths were thin and broken, as if she were fighting back a sob.

Worry spiked in Janet's chest. "Madison, what's going on?"

"I..." Madison meant to say she was fine, but the word barely made it out before her voice cracked. She couldn't hold it in anymore.

She had never imagined Sam would actually walk away from her in this second life. In the last one, he had chosen to burn to death rather than let her die.

The more Madison thought about it, the harder it was to breathe.

She had been wound tight from the second she woke up in this life, and now something in her finally snapped. She broke, the sobs ripping out of her before she could stop them.

Janet froze when Madison's sudden sobbing burst through the phone, then her nerves kicked in hard.

"Hey, don't cry. Mr. Goodwin probably went to Marowa for Project ET. It doesn't mean he's cutting ties with you. Madison, are you listening? Hello? Madison?"

Madison caught bits and pieces, but she was too shattered to say anything.

Janet seemed to understand. She murmured a few more words, then hung up.

All that remained was Madison's quiet sobbing. She didn't even know how long it had been before a red sports car pulled up in front of her. She looked up instinctively and saw Janet climbing out.

Janet spotted her sitting on the ground like someone who had been tossed aside. She glanced at the tightly closed gates of Northcrest Villa. Something twisted across her face before she forced it down.

She walked over, slipped off her sunglasses, and asked, "Miss Heiress, are you done crying yet? Do you want me to sit here and cry with you?"

Madison felt steadier now that she had let it all out. She wiped her tears and croaked, "No. I'm fine."

"Then get up and come with me." With that, Janet spun around and headed straight back to the car.

Madison watched her go, pressed her lips together, then pushed herself up and followed. The second she clicked her seatbelt, the engine rumbled to life.

She shot Janet a look. "Jan, where are we going?"
