The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning (Madelyn) novel Chapter 547

The number of attendees from the Arnold family was not extensive. Ethan's father, Owen, was notably absent, and the reason behind his absence remained a mystery to those outside the Arnold family. However, nobody dared to ask or gossip about the most prominent family in Ventropolis. In high society circles, everyone knew about the dramatic divorce between Frida Young and Owen Arnold.

Owen had two brothers and a sister, all of whom were at the event today. They usually managed different parts of the Arnold Corporation and rarely appeared in public. Madelyn didn't often cross paths with them in her daily life.

Madelyn greeted each of them one by one and received quite a few gifts. She passed these gifts on to the accompanying servers. The total value of these gifts could easily cover the down payment on a luxury apartment in Ventropolis.

Materially, Ethan spared no expense when it came to Madelyn. She even knew the combination to the safe in his room, which contained nothing but gold bars and cash.

Zach leaned in and whispered something to Jadie. She set down her glass, and Zach promptly replaced it with a new one filled with non-alcoholic fruit juice.

The atmosphere appeared calm, but beneath the surface, tensions were simmering. Hayson squinted his eyes, feigning a smile. "I'll be entrusting Madelyn to you from now on. She hasn't endured any hardships from childhood to adulthood. She's the one I cherish the most. If she ever acts spoiled, I hope you'll be patient with her. She's still young."

Ethan had slicked-back hair and wore a handsome black suit that accentuated his charm. Earlier, he had removed the scar on his neck from a tattoo, which Madelyn had expertly covered with foundation. It was a task typically assigned to a makeup artist, but Ethan had insisted that only she do it.

Ethan gazed affectionately at Madelyn. "Madelyn is going to be my wife soon. No matter what she does, I'll naturally dote on her. At her age, being a bit willful is to be expected."

Jadie approached with a glass in her hands, a perfectly placed smile on her lips. "Madelyn, congratulations. You look truly beautiful today, and I'd like to raise a toast to you. I wish you all the happiness in the world. Zach and I will always be family to you. When you have the time, make sure to visit us often. We would be delighted."

Madelyn clinked her glass with Jadie's. "Thank you, I will."

Zach walked up to Jadie, dressed in a well-fitted suit, exuding composure. He put his arm around her shoulders. "I can't believe how fast Madelyn has grown up. If you ever face any difficulties in the future, know that I'll be on your side."
