Chapter 75
“Yes, sir…”
Kevin did not hang up the call, putting the phone directly into his pocket.
On the other end of the call, Zach walked to the kitchen and poured himself a glass of water. Just as he was about to hang up, the sound of Madelyn crying suddenly came from the phone.
‘So, there was another man besides her…’ he mused.
“No one will bully you anymore… Stop crying…”
Ethan’s embrace was warm.
And her heart too, became to warm up as well.
He was the first person to speak such comforting words to her.
Zach would never comfort her in her times of sorrow and would only complain that her crying upset him. He would always tell her to go somewhere else if she wanted to cry.
“Can I lean on you for a bit?”
Madelyn’s voice trembled.
Ethan smiled a little as he opened his arms to her. “Any time, any day. It’d be my pleasure.”
So, when Kevin walked in, he saw Madelyn crying in another man’s arms.
This left him stunned and confused. He was at a loss for what to do in such an awkward situation.
On his end, Zach’s expression darkened as he listened to Madelyn crying.
Ointment was applied onto her face and the medicine bag, which Ethan had bought, was still
in her hands.
They had only met for the third time, and she was already hugging him and crying in his arms. She even soaked his shirt, and even more embarrassingly, her snot was on it too.
Aside from this, Madelyn also knew that she would not escape a beating this time, so…
She decided to have Kevin drive her around a bit.
Once she was in the car, she asked, “Do you think my father knows about this?”
Kevin looked at the person behind him and nodded. “You can tell him directly if you feel aggrieved. On the surface, he might not seem to care, but he’ll definitely help you deal with this in secret.”
Madelyn sat in the car as she looked at the sea view. They were now at the border between
Ventropolis and Brightpearl.
The painting in her room was of this exact scene. It had been painted by her mother.
“… Let’s not add on to his troubles. He’s already so busy.”
“Kevin, when we get home later, can you just help to restrain Father a little…?” Madelyn bit her lips.
Kevin gritted his teeth and sighed. “I’ll do my best.”
“Sigh… forget it… Whatever happens, happens. It’s all because of me anyway. Kevin… let’s go back.”
“Alright.”
Along the way, Madelyn saw an ice cream truck and she got Kevin to stop and get two ice
cream cones.
She gave him the blueberry flavored one while she kept the strawberry for herself…
She was a girl after all, so it was no loss if she got something nice to eat before she got punished.
