"Anyone who ends up in Ventropolis Prison can never come out alive. You'd better think carefully before deciding what you want to do. I'm the only person who can bring someone back alive from his hands."
Madelyn knew how dreadful of a place the Ventropolis Prison was. It was a prison for death row inmates, and those taken there would usually end up either dead or severely injured.
Even an innocent person who ended up there would return to be an incomplete corpse.
Zach sat in his seat, and the maid had already set up two pairs of utensils.
Madelyn took a deep breath. She tried her best to suppress her emotions as she pressed her fingernails deep into her palms.
In the end, she gave in.
Madelyn only took a few bites of her food and did not touch the dishes Zach had served her at all.
Before they realized it, it was already past midnight.
When Zach finished eating, the dishes on the table were already cold.
As Zach set down his fork and knife, Madelyn said nonchalantly, "I hope you'll keep your promise and let Mya return home safely. In the future, I'll stay here and not go anywhere else. But please, don't force me to do things I don't want to do.
"I don't want to be Mrs. Jardin, and I won't marry you. Lastly, whoever you choose to marry has absolutely nothing to do with me."
Her brief moment of freedom ended when Zach brought her back, and now she felt like a soulless shell again.
On the hallway of the third floor, Dalton was still crying. Madelyn walked past him like a lifeless zombie as if she could not hear him at all.
Madelyn went back to the mast bedroom and found out the ring was back on the bedside table. After washing up, a sudden wave of fatigue hit her, and she quickly fell asleep on the bed.
In the quiet study, Zach took out a stack of money from the drawer and placed it on the table. With a cigarette in his hand, he said, "This is what you deserve."
Margaret looked at the money but did not step forward to take it. Instead, she spoke with a hint of worry, "Mr. Jardin, Ms. Jent didn't sound like she was lying earlier. And also, you've made a mistake in this matter. No matter what, you shouldn't have brought another woman back and let her stay overnight. Even if other people believe that nothing had happened between you and the woman, Ms. Jent already had a bad impression of you. How could you ignore her feelings and do something that hurt her so much?
"To be honest, I can feel that Ms. Jent has already accepted you, but with what you said to her, sigh... I have no idea what to do now. I don't think I should take this money..."
Zach asked, "So, what do you suggest me do?"
Margaret shook her head. "I really don't know."
Zach wanted Margaret to come up with something to make Madelyn stay.
"Ms. Jent is still upset. You should let her vent her anger on you. If she ever hits you, you must not hurt her..."
Indeed, Zach did not hurt her!
There was that fresh wound on his neck, but the black shirt he was wearing hid his wound well, but the smell of blood on him was strong.
