Reborn to My Engagement Night (Madelyn and Sebastian) novel Chapter 152

Chapter 152 Push Me

Finished

Janessa was completely dumbfounded. Something is off! The story isn’t supposed to unfold this way. Madelyn was supposed to look for Christopher… Hose is she here instead?

Janessa couldn’t make sense of it all, so she had no choice but to argue loudly, “Madelyn, I swear I didn’t mishear you. Your clearly told me just now that Christopher had a car accident. You were rushing to see him”

Upon hearing these words, Madelyn looked utterly confused. “Why should I go see Christopher? He’s not related to me in any way. Sure, we’re classmates, but we’re not that close. Why on earth would I go see him? I would be out of my mind. Besides, I have a banquet to attend on my side. Why would I possibly abandon such an important event to go see a classmate I’m not even close with?”

After Madelyn finished speaking, she innocently looked at Sebastian and asked, “Sebastian, you agree me, right?”

Sebastian remained silent, his icy gaze fixed on Janessa. “Ms. Sherritt, what exactly were you trying to convey with what you said to me?”

Janessa had no choice but to cover her mouth, shaking her head. “Sebastian, believe me. I didn’t lie. It was Madelyn. She-”

“What’s wrong with me? Janessa, aren’t we good friends? How come you wouldn’t even help me out by telling Sebastian I was in the bathroom?” Madelyn innocently asked, and her face abruptly paled a second later as she looked at Janessa in disbelief. Janessa, you didn’t tell Sebastian that I went to look after Christopher, did you?”

Janessa was at a loss for words because she indeed said exactly that.

Upon seeing her silence, Madelyn immediately scolded with a pale face, “Janessa! How could you do this? I never said I was going to look for Christopher. How could you speak without understanding the situation? You nearly caused a disaster. Sebastian almost misunderstood me. Do you understand?”

Janessa was utterly speechless. For quite a while, she didn’t know how to react. What on earth is happening? My plan isn’t supposed to go like this!

However, it seemed that no matter how much she tried to explain herself, Sebastian wouldn’t believe her. At that point, his face had already turned completely cold.

If the argument continued, it probably wouldn’t do any good for her.

After a moment, Janessa finally gathered her thoughts and managed to explain, “P–Perhaps I misunderstood. I’m sorry, Madelyn. Sebastian, it was my mistake. I hope you won’t take it to heart.”

Upon seeing her like this, Madelyn couldn’t help but scoff inwardly. Oh? After your scheme failed, do you think playing innocent and begging for mercy will work? Unfortunately, it isn’t that simple.

With that in mind, Madelyn put on a convincingly angry face and thundered, “Janessa, this is not the first time. You’ve been treating me like this over and over again. What are you really up to?”

With that, Madelyn, quite frustrated, hooked her arm around Sebastian’s arm and headed straight toward Lockhart Manor.

Janessa couldn’t just accept it. She quickly chased after them in her high heels.

Grasping Madelyn’s hand, she pleaded, “Madelyn, can you let me explain properly? There must be some misunderstanding here. It’s not what you’re thinking!”

Madelyn turned around impatiently, immediately shaking off her hand. “There’s nothing to explain!”

“But I—Janessa attempted to interject once more.

“Will you ever stop?” Madelyn pulled away once again.

Surprisingly, when she shook Janessa off, Janessa let go of her hand. Janessa’s high heel suddenly twisted, causing her to lose her balance and tumble down.

Next to them was a swimming pool. That morning, Marsha had just had the pool cleaned by the workers, filling it with fresh water.

With a splash, Janessa had fallen, causing countless droplets to scatter.

The guests watched in shock, exclaiming. “Someone’s fallen into the water!”

“Huh? Someone fell into the water?”

“Quick! Take a look!”

For a moment, all eyes were drawn to the swimming pool.

Indeed, they saw a woman bobbing up and down on the water’s surface as if she could sink at any moment.

“Help me!” Janessa, who never learned how to swim, found herself struggling in the water.

“I can’t swim! Save me…” Janessa had barely gotten the words out when she swallowed a mouthful of pool

water.

Onlookers watched with growing concern, yet none stepped forward to offer help.

Janessa knew that Sebastian was a good swimmer. At that moment, she called out desperately, “Sebastian, save me! Save me!”

After speaking, she took a big gulp of the disinfected water from the swimming pool.

Janessa was in such agony that she felt as if she were on the verge of death. All she could do was stare desperately at Sebastian, hoping he would leap into action and play the hero to save her.

However, Sebastian was merely observing with a cool detachment from the sidelines.

With so many people around, there was no need for him to play the hero. Besides, he was unsure of this woman’s intentions just moments ago. Sebastian was actually curious to see what kind of spectacle she could stir up next.

Madelyn, however, was utterly taken aback. The force with which I pushed her away earlier was clearly not that strong. It was hardly enough to make her lose her balance, let alone enough to cause her to fall into the water!
