The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning (Madelyn) novel Chapter 971

Dalton tugged on Madelyn's sleeve, drawing her attention to him. He had finished his milk and was waving the bottle, indicating he wanted more. Madelyn glanced emotionlessly at Margaret.

Margaret noticed Madelyn's glance and quickly came over to take Dalton. However, Zach spoke up, "I'll take him."

Margaret hesitated briefly before handing Dalton over to Zach. The usually restless Dalton sat quietly on Zach's lap, content with some snacks given by Margaret to nibble on.

"Let's eat," Zach announced, cradling Dalton in one arm while serving fish onto Madelyn's plate with his other hand.

Zach did not force Madelyn to accept the gift she was reluctant to take. Instead, he pushed it toward her and said, "You can open it later and take a look. Consider it my wedding gift to you."

Madelyn did not acknowledge the gesture, maintaining her silence throughout the meal. After they finished, the photographer for the family portrait arrived. At that moment, Madelyn's face was preoccupied with red spots.

"Why does it have to be today? Can't we reschedule?" Madelyn asked.

Zach removed Madelyn's hand from her face and said, "Nowadays, we have technology to remove those red spots from your face. It'll only take a few minutes. After the photoshoot, we can go get your medicine."

Madelyn kept her distance from Zach and said, "Let's just get it over with. I'm feeling dizzy."

The photographer had already set up the backdrop. After the makeup artist gave her a brief touch-up, Madelyn sat, ready for the photo shoot. The photographer, sensing the tense atmosphere, hurried the process.

Only a few photos were taken before it was over. The photographer handed the finished product to Madelyn and said, "Mrs. Jardin, What do you think of them?"

However, Madelyn hardly glanced at it. She suddenly felt nauseous and rushed to the bathroom to vomit.
