Madelyn had a rough night's sleep. She woke up a little after six. Her head throbbed as she went downstairs. 'Maybe I caught a cold because I left the window open,' she thought, noticing how chilly the mornings had become compared to the warm days.When she was in the living room downstairs, she saw a servant cleaning the kitchen. It looked like she had just started cleaning. There was a mess on the floor with broken plates scattered around.Madelyn asked, "What happened here?""Ms. Jent," the servant called her before explaining, "It was probably due to a mouse last night. Mr. Jardin instructed that all the dishes in the kitchen be replaced to avoid contamination."Madelyn looked around and asked, "Where's Margaret?"The servant responded, "She has been assigned to the backyard. She should be washing vegetables now. Do you need something from her? Should I call her for you?""It's fine." Madelyn smiled slightly. She then found the medicine box below the cabinet and took two head

Zach went upstairs and saw the master bedroom door was open.Madelyn carefully helped Hayson, now clean, out of the bathroom. She got him settled in the wheelchair and then dried his hair with a hairdryer. His dirty clothes and bedsheet were scattered on the floor.After finished drying his hair, Madelyn combed it. The weather today was quite nice. She wanted to let Hayson enjoy some sunlight. As soon as she turned around, she noticed Zach standing at the doorway out of nowhere. She faintly glanced at him before grabbing a blanket from the closet to drape it over Hayson's legs.She was lost in her thoughts, 'No matter what, his blood is in me. I'm his daughter. This is a fact that'll never change. Even though he's only treated me as a tool for marriage for business purposes, he's never mistreated me growing up.'This family is ruined now. He and I can only rely on each other. If he were to really pass away one day, Zach's next target would be me.'Hayson was still in the wheelchai

After Robin's surgery, he was immediately taken to the Arnold residence. Once he woke up, he started crying and calling out for his mother. Robin had always been by Donna's side since he was young. No servant could calm him down. He cried non-stop, and whatever he ate, he would vomit right back out. One night, he even threw up blood.Upon hearing this, Evelyn became extremely distressed. Ignoring Ethan's objections, she directly sent for Donna to come over.Only then did Robin finally calm down.Robin was of the Arnold family bloodline. How could she not be heartbroken for him?After the family doctor examined him, it was concluded that there wasn't any serious issue. He had cried so hard that he had a nosebleed, and the blood had gone into his mouth, making it seem like he was vomiting blood.Children do have a quick recovery rate. In just a few days, Robin was able to get out of bed. Throughout this time, Donna also stayed quietly at the Arnold residence to take care of him.

"Jadie, please leave." Madelyn spoke coldly, "Everyone, leave. My father needs rest, and you are disturbing him." She turned away, no longer paying them any attention, and uninterested in watching them keeping up their act."Madelyn..." Rosario began, her eyes filled with sorrow, somehow turning Madelyn into the villain, as if she had done something unforgivable."Out!" Madelyn no longer wanted to see them.Jadie pressed her lips together, "Rosario, we should leave."After Rosario was helped out of the room by Jadie, Zach closed the door. Jadie didn't know what had transpired between Rosario and Madelyn. The old Madelyn had regarded Rosario as family, while now, she treated Rosario like an enemy."Zach, what happened between Rosario and Madelyn?" Jadie asked, puzzled.Zach's gaze was icy as it landed on Rosario, "In the future, don't seek her out without my permission. If you wish to stay at the Jent residence, do what you're supposed to do."Rosario, tears streaming down her fa

'He's always around so many women, who knows how many he's been fooling around before me.' She thought Zach was disgusting, yet she couldn't help feeling the same about herself. How she wished their paths had never crossed.From downstairs, Jasmine's voice drifted up as she ascended the stairs. "Zach, did you make Madelyn upset again?" When she reached the door, she didn’t seem shocked when she saw what was happening in the room. Instead, she just smiled at Zach, "Why do you always get her worked up? Talk to me instead."It was clear from how Jasmine looked at Zach that they had something special."Leave! This is MY room. Talk somewhere else," Madelyn said, putting down the craft knife in her hand. There was a small cut on her neck that was bleeding a little.Madelyn didn't conceal the contempt in her eyes for them. To her, the relationships in this house were all tangled up and messed up. It felt as if the house were a decaying swamp, and everyone was trapped, unable to break free
