The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning (Madelyn) novel Chapter 346

Adrian tried to count, but there were too many things to fit on one hand. He realized that Madelyn and Forrest had done so many things together.

Madelyn looked at Adrian as if she understood something. "Isn't it normal for friends to do things like this, like eat together and go shopping? Didn't you and Jadie do the same things?"

Madelyn did not know he was the one who had saved her at the fishing village back then. So, when Forrest had asked her to tutor him, she said no because of how Forrest treated her. For two years in high school, Forrest had been mean to her, and his bullying had caused her classmates in Class Six to isolate her. That was why she tended to be aloof and preferred to be alone, not really interacting with others.

Her relationship with Forrest had improved from what it once was, and to outsiders, they seemed to get along well, but people forgot the terrible things Forrest had done to her over the past two years. When Forrest grabbed her by the neck and accused her of hurting Jadie, Madelyn realized how much Forrest cared for Jadie. At that moment, Madelyn wondered if Forrest might have actually strangled her if she had admitted to it.

Madelyn could not figure it out. 'Did Adrian just imply that Forrest likes me? Or that I like Forrest? Either way, it's absurd.'

Forrest and Jadie had gone to the Portsmouth Fishing Village together. When Jadie first transferred to their school, the whole high school had known about their relationship.

She tilted her head, looking confused, and stared at Adrian. "Hasn't Forrest always had a crush on Jadie? Why are you talking about me? I only helped him because he saved my life. I told him it has nothing to do with feelings." Madelyn did not get what Adrian meant.

"Hmph!"

Madelyn heard a clear laugh that sounded like it came from Forrest. Adrian turned and saw Forrest punch a brick wall really hard. There was a little blood in the cracks from his hand. Adrian looked at Forrest's hand, where he could see the bleeding knuckles. He thought, 'Wow, he punched so hard. He doesn't care about hurting his hand!'
