The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning (Madelyn) novel Chapter 1009

After leaving the room, Madelyn wiped her hand, the one she had used to touch Zach's face, and her smile faded instantly.

In the room, Zach took out his phone and opened his monitoring program. It showed that about fifteen minutes earlier, Madelyn had contacted Kennedy for work-related matters.

Zach encrypted access to Madelyn's frequently used email address. The trash folder was empty, but his monitoring program had a recovery function. As he was about to use it, he paused, his deep and gloomy eyes betraying no emotion.

As night approached, the company's delayed annual banquet was about to begin.

Kai had wanted to have dinner with Zach during the holiday, but Zach had coldly refused.

Zach personally picked out a suitable, warm dress for Madelyn. It was a slim, velvet long gown that covered her completely. She also wore Zach's suit jacket over it. Despite the thickness of the dress, Madelyn looked slender and graceful.

Madelyn chose not to wear earrings, finding them too heavy. She wore a costly red gemstone ring on her finger, dazzling and luxurious. Her naturally elegant aura was unmistakable.

She was raised in a wealthy family and her every gesture radiated the grace of her upbringing. Even her simplest actions were captivating.

Zach watched Madelyn adjust her skirt in the mirror and suddenly embraced her from behind, saying, "You're a real enchantress. I want to hide you away, just for myself."

Madelyn felt Zach's breath on her ear. She knew he was being playful again. She reached back, tugged at his ear, and said, "Zach, enough. My waist still hurts."

Zach kissed the back of her hand and replied, "I won't let you off tonight."
