The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning (Madelyn) novel Chapter 422

Madelyn briefly explained the situation to Alex.

Alex paused, and her client let out a groan due to pain. She quickly said, "Hold on a moment." Then she turned to Madelyn, "I'll gather some folks, and we'll go look for him."

Madelyn replied, "Thank you."

Alex swiftly assembled a few friends who used to hang out with Forrest.

One of the guys said, "It's been a long time since Forrest last came to see us. Since he left here, we haven't been in touch much. Most of the time, it was him reaching out to us. We're not really sure where he usually goes."

"Yeah, even though Forrest used to scavenge for scraps with me, that was a long time ago."

'Scavenging for scraps?' Madelyn had never known Forrest's life had been that difficult in the past.

She asked, "Did he... used to have a tough life?"

The redhead chimed in, "You bet! He used to work multiple jobs, and he was the one hauling most of the seafood from the sea. Many couldn't keep up with him."

This was a side of Forrest that Madelyn had never known.

Alex scolded, "Why are you talking about this? Let's get moving and start searching."

Madelyn said, "I'll go with you guys!"

Alex replied firmly, "No, you better not. Remember what happened last time. This is not a safe place, and you're not familiar with it. We'll handle it; once we find him, I'll send someone to let you know."

"Thank you!"

"Don't mention it. To repay you for that meal last time, it's the least we can do."

Zach's voice came with a hint of amusement, "Now you're using your brain to think. Good, very clever!"

Madelyn thought, 'He's still mocking me.' She continued, "Tell me where Forrest is, or... I'll call the police right now!"

"Call the police? Madelyn... Do you think calling the police will help?"

"What do you want?"

"Find me, and I'll tell you everything. Hmm?"

Madelyn's heart suddenly leaped. "Are you... in this village?"

Madelyn couldn't shake the feeling that everything that had happened so far had been orchestrated by Zach.
