Chapter 158 Most Likely Pretending

“I came to have dinner with you. Is that not okay?” Madelyn said with a playful grin.

“Sebastian, we have a meeting later,” Harriet reminded impassively.

Her tone was frosty as if indirectly rejecting Madelyn on behalf of Sebastian.

Finished

Feeling somewhat strange, Madelyn glanced at Harriet before turning to Sebastian, asking awkwardly, “Um, are you guys still busy?”

“Of course,” Harriet said sharply. She didn’t even spare Madelyn a glance as she spoke, an icy arrogance radiating from her.

This chilling and piercing sensation made Madelyn’s skin crawl as if covered with prickly thorns.

Originally, Sebastian did have a meeting to attend. However, seeing Madelyn’s aggrieved expression and knowing she had specifically come and waited for him for so long, he couldn’t bear to turn her away..

Hence, he chuckled. “I’m not busy anymore. Let’s have dinner together.”

After saying that, he turned to Harriet impassively. “Let’s discuss the meeting another day. I’ll have my assistant inform you of the exact time. You should go home for now.”

Harriet’s face evidently stiffened.

Who knew Sebastian would be willing to postpone such an important meeting for the sake of this girl?

However, Harriet didn’t say another word and turned to leave.

Following that, Sebastian neatly put away the documents on the table before heading downstairs with his. arm wrapped around Madelyn.

“What would you like to eat?” he asked nonchalantly,

“Hmm… steak,” she replied.

“Sure.”

And so, the two set off to have steak.

Throughout the drive, Madelyn sat in the passenger seat. Initially, she had intended to strike up a casual. conversation with Sebastian.

However, when she turned around, she noticed his solemn expression, as if something was troubling him.

She couldn’t help but ask, “Sebastian, are you in a bad mood? Has something happened?”

Sebastian replied calmly. “It’s nothing serious, just some business matters. I might need to go abroad in two

days.

“Oh.” Madelyn nodded, her brows subconsciously furrowing as her mind suddenly became a chaotic mess.

Vaguely. Madelyn seemed to sense that something bad was about to happen.

Finished

However, at the same time, she couldn’t recall anything. It all felt chaotic, and she couldn’t make head or tail

of it.

After a while, the two arrived at an Epean restaurant and each ordered a scrying of black pepper steak.

As she was eating, Madelyn also seemed somewhat distracted.

She found it oddly difficult to exert strength when cutting the steak with a knife and fork.

Countless images flew across her mind, chaotic like a jumbled mess of honeycomb briquettes.

Madelyn tried her hardest to recall what happened this time in her previous life. However, it was as if her memories were blocked, and no matter how hard she racked her brains, she couldn’t remember even the slightest hint of what had transpired.

In the end, after thinking for too long, a sudden jolt of pain shot through her mind.

Madelyn instantly paled and supported her head with her right hand, somewhat weakly propped on the table.

A surge of anxiety seized Sebastian when he saw that. “What’s wron

“It’s nothing…” Madelyn shook her head. “Just a bit of a headache. It’s no big deal.”

She resumed eating, but it was as if her hand had lost all its strength as she couldn’t cut through the steak.

Sebastian observed her frail appearance, his heart filled with worry. He immediately put down his knife and fork, took her hand, and led her outside.

Sebastian?” Madelyn called out, perplexed.

He responded firmly, “We’re going to the hospital.“

Before long, they arrived at the hospital, and she underwent a series of medical examinations.

After the examination, the doctor calmly stated, “Based on the check–up, there are no abnormalities in the patient’s brain. The headaches are likely due to a recent lack of sleep or overuse of the brain. As for her hand lacking strength, it’s likely due to numbness or temporary weakness. These are all normal occurrences. There’s no need to worry.”

“Are you sure?” Sebastian couldn’t help but frown after hearing that.

“You can rest assured, sir. Our examinations here are the most prestigious, and there has never been a mistake,” the doctor assured.

Sebastian wasn’t exactly doubting the hospital, but he found it strange. How could Madelyn have a headache out of the blue?

Madelyn also found it a bit odd. I don’t feel like I’m suffering from sleep deprivation or overusing my brain as the doctor suggested. So why is this happening?

Since her reincarnation, it seemed like this was the first time such a situation had occurred.

Just then, Sebastian’s phone rang

He pulled out his phone, discovering it was a call from Wesley.
