Reborn to My Engagement Night (Madelyn and Sebastian) novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 I Was Wrong

In the entire city, who wasn’t aware of the Lockhart family’s terrifying wealth and power?

If one accidentally provoked them, one might not even know how one meets one’s doom!

As they slept, the sun began to rise on the horizon.

Finished

Josiah had dozed off without realizing it and woke to find Madelyn still sound asleep. He walked over to wake her up.

“Hey, it is dawn. Wake up.”

Leaning against the wall, Madelyn mumbled, “No, let me sleep a little longer…”

What?

Josiah almost laughed out of sheer frustration.

How could this woman sleep so soundly in the middle of nowhere? Is she serious?

Not holding back, Josiah pushed her awake. “Hey, lazy pig, get up.”

“Who are you calling a pig?” Madelyn shot back, finally waking up and glaring at Josiah.

Josiah couldn’t help but laugh. Instead of arguing, he looked at the sky and said, “It is morning. We can probably head back now.”

Madelyn nodded and used the wall to help herself stand up, only to grimace in pain. “Ow, ow, ow!”

“What’s wrong?” Josiah asked. He glanced at her knee and noticed that blood was seeping through the cloth wrapped around her injury.

D*mn it. I thought it was just a fall, but the injury was worse than I had expected.

Given the circumstances, it was better to get down the mountain and take her to a hospital than to do a makeshift bandage here.

With this in mind, Josiah asked, “Can you walk?”

Madelyn nodded. “I think so.”

As soon as she took a step, her leg gave out.

Josiah quickly caught her, muttering, “Really? If you can’t walk, just say so. Why push yourself?”

As he spoke, he promptly crouched down in front of her.

Madelyn looked at him, confused. “What are you doing?”

“Are you stupid? Of course, I am going to carry you. Can’t you see that?” Josiah was almost fuming.

“Get lost, I am not your lackey,” Josiah retorted, then stood up and started walking.

Finished

The path was easier to find in the daylight. In a few minutes, Josiah had carried her to the main road.

Just then, Tristan’s men called out not far away, “Josiah! Josiah!”

“Over here,” Josiah responded weakly.

Seeing him, one of Tristan’s men shouted, “Found him! Found him! Tristan, they’re here!”

Everyone rushed over, including Sebastian.

Madelyn saw Sebastian from a distance and began frantically patting Josiah’s back. “Put me down! Quick!”

“What are you doing?” Josiah, pained by her slaps, hurriedly set her down.

No sooner had he done so than Sebastian stormed over with a dark expression. He scooped Madelyn up without a word.

Before she could protest, Sebastian was already carrying her away.

Josiah immediately chased after them, blocking Sebastian. “Who are you?”

Sebastian didn’t even look at him as he was focused solely on Madelyn.

Embarrassed, Madelyn quickly reassured Josiah, “Josiah, I am fine. Thanks so much for last night. Don’t worry, I promise to keep my word about your car. Goodbye!”

With that, Sebastian carried her off.

Josiah was at a loss for words, yet he could do nothing but watch helplessly as Sebastian carried Madelyn away with determined strides.

On the way back, the atmosphere in the car was tense, the air–heavy.

Madelyn felt a chill from Sebastian’s dark expression.

Sebastian’s face had darkened to an extreme degree, appearing particularly terrifying.

Madelyn felt a bit scared and wasn’t sure if she should speak.

Finally, she mustered the courage to speak. “Sebastian, I am sorry…”

“You are courting death!” Sebastian suddenly exploded in anger.

Both Wesley and Madelyn were startled.

Sebastian’s tone remained harsh. “Next time you want to die, just let me know. I won’t stop you. But don’t drag others into it!”

He had searched for over six hours, fearing he might never see her again.

“You think there will be a next time?” Sebastian’s voice rose as his anger increased.

Finished

Madelyn immediately shook her head. “No, no, there won’t be a next time. I was wrong. I won’t do it again.”

Her pitiful tone made even Wesley feel sorry for her.

He intervened, “Sebastian, she’s apologized. Let it go. You didn’t sleep all night, and getting all worked up now will only harm your health!”
