Chapter 124 Not Fall For It Again
Finished
Meanwhile, after spending the entire day out and about yesterday, Madelyn was utterly exhausted. So. once she returned home and took a bath, she promptly went to sleep.
When Madelyn woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.
Flustered, she glanced at her phone and was taken aback to see that it was already ten in the morning.
After a moment’s reflection, she realized that all her classes today were in the afternoon. Opting to pamper herself, she stayed in bed, lounging around.
As noon approached, she finally got up and prepared a simple meal for herself.
The more Lydia watched Madelyn cat, the more fond she became of her. She couldn’t help but compliment, “Mrs. Lockhart, people always say marriage makes couples glow. You’re indeed looking better with each passing day.”
Lydia’s compliment lifted Madelyn’s spirits. She responded with a gentle grin.
Feeling buoyant, she made her way to school.
Upon entering the classroom. Madelyn immediately noticed Jillian’s absence. She turned to a nearby classmate and inquired, “Where’s Jillian?”
A classmate beside her replied, “It seems she went to meet with a professor who called her.”
“I see.” Madelyn nodded, not paying it any further mind.
Madelyn attended two classes, remaining attentive throughout both sessions in the afternoon. As it was still early, she decided to visit the library to borrow some books.
Previously, she had nearly finished reviewing the books she borrowed. This time, she focused on borrowing books based on key points Jillian provided.
With a stack of books in her hands, Madelyn planned to seek out Sebastian next.
Sebastian’s knack for explaining lessons in a straightforward and easy manner surpassed that of many university professors. To Madelyn, it would be a waste not to take advantage of his expertise.
However, she had no intention of letting Sebastian know her plans. She considered going straight to his office later, hoping to surprise him.
With anticipation stirring in her, Madelyn made her way to the campus entrance.
Suddenly, a female classmate rushed toward her in a flurry as if driven by urgent purpose.
“Madelyn!” The classmate’s voice trembled with anxiety. “I just saw a group of thugs take Jillian away. You should go check on her right away.”
Madelyn’s expression darkened. “Where did they go?”
“They dragged Jillian into a car and headed toward the southern suburbs,” the panicked classmate replied urgently, “She looked terrified, on the verge of tears. You should go after her quickly.”

Madelyn was instantly taken aback. Oh, no! This is bad!

The southern suburbs were a hotbed of vice, bustling with ruffians, street racers, and even members of the underworld, all congregating in that area.
Madelyn couldn’t fathom what might happen to Jillian, knowing she had been taken to such a perilous area by an unknown group of thugs.
Upon thinking about this, Madelyn immediately expressed her gratitude to the classmate. “Thank you.”
Without hesitation, she ran to the roadside and hailed a cab.
As soon as she got into the car, she urgently instructed the driver. “Sir, head to the southern suburbs, please! Hurry!”
The car sped off into the distance.
Not long after Madelyn departed, Janessa emerged from the side of the entrance. She watched Madelyn’s departing car with a sinister grin.
As Janessa lingered, the classmate who had conveyed the urgent message to Madelyn approached her, head bowed with deference. “Janessa, I’ve done as you asked. So…”
Janessa cut her off with a cold huff, swiftly retrieving five thousand in cash from her purse and passing it over. “Good job.”
The classmate eagerly took the stack of money, her eyes instantly lighting up. She hadn’t expected making such a large sum of money could be so effortless.
Turning to Janessa, she said earnestly, “Janessa, if you ever need me in the future, don’t hesitate to reach out. I’ll take care of everything no matter how challenging or dangerous the situation is!”
Janessa hummed in agreement, a smug glint flashing in her eyes.
What they didn’t know was that Madelyn hadn’t gone far at all.
Earlier, when she had hurriedly entered the car, she had sensed something was amiss.
The classmate who witnessed Jillian being taken away appeared to be in a state of utter panic. In such a dire situation, why didn’t she call the police first! She could have at least told the security guard at the entrance or one of the professors first, right? It would have made sense for her to call the police or inform the security guard first, instead of confiding in me, wouldn’t it? I feel as helpless as she does, get she chose to tell me.
After much consideration, doubts began to creep into Madelyn’s heart
Not long after the car had driven off, she instructed the driver to stop at a bend in the road and then got out of the vehicle.
Finding a secluded spot to hide, she glanced back toward the university entrance and was surprised to see Janessa handing the classmate a stack of money Janes It’s her again!
From a distance, Madelyn watched her, feeling extremely irritated. Can’t this woman stop causing trouble?
Give me a break!
Madelyn had no choice but to calmly analyze the current situation. From wher
