Reborn to my engagement night by Baxter Walters

Chapter 253 Threaten Your Life

Finished

The following day. Madelyn had only just woken up when Janessa arrived, bearing fruits and health supplements

for her visit.

As soon as she saw Madelyn, Janessa put on a show of concern. “Madelyn, how are you feeling? Are you in

pain?”

Inside, Madelyn sneered. She's quite the convincing actres

“Don’t worry, I'm not that easy to kill,” Madelyn responded with a half-smile.

Janessa gently said. “I'm relieved to hear that you're okay.”

Madelyn was rolling her eyes inwardly.

Suddenly, a thought struck Madelyn, and she said with hint of profound meaning. “Janessa, I've always felt that

what happened yesterday wasn’t a coincidence. Someone is definitely out to get me. Hmph! If | find out who it

is. 111 make sure they pay!”

Once she finished speaking. Madelyn even purposefully raised her fist, putting on a threatening expression.

A tremor ran through Janessa’s heart, prompting an awkward chuckle. “Yeah, it's unbelievable that someone

would want to harm you. It's just too much,” she said.

“Absolutely! If the person who wrongedwas a man, I'd give him a good beating, to the point of breaking his

arms and legs, teaching him a lesson. But if it were a woman...” Madelyn paused, her face slightly mischievous

as she chuckled slyly. “If it’s a woman, even better. I'll make sure she’s disfigured, subjected to endless

humiliation, and unable to show her face in public ever again. Let's see who's more ruthless.

A shiver of guilt immediately ran through Janessa. Is Madelyn serious? Is she really that ruthless?

For a moment, Janessa was at a loss for words. All she could do was awkwardly stand up and say, “Well, you

should rest first. | need to go back to campus for my classes. I'll cand see you later.”

With that, she hastily fled in disarray.

Madelyn’s smile only grew wider. Her words were merely meant to intimidate Janessa. Would she have been so

frightened if she hadn't done so many guilty deeds? I’m not pushover. As for the matter of the stage light. |

won't let it slide!

For reasons unknown, a vague sense of foreboding seemed to linger in Madelyn’s heart. Wait...

Memories surged like a tide within Madelyn’s mind, and she suddenly recalled numerous events. If my memory

servesright, the Sherritt family is likely to experience sturbulence during this period.

Janessa’s mother, Francesca Ingram, was Rupert's mistress, but she had passed away quite early on. From then

on, Janessa lived by her father’s side.

However, in Madelyn’s previous life, Janessa’s family background was far from as simple as it appeared.

Though Francesca had passed away a long tago, it seemed Janessa still had an aunt on her mother’s

making it hard for anyone to trace her origins.

Finished

Af my memory servescorrectly, during this tin my preous life, Janessa should be gearing up to seize

power within the Sherritt family. Right then, a wave of unease washed over Madelyn in silence.

When Janessa was taking over the Sherritt family in Madelyn’s previous life, Janessa completely upended the

entire family. Yet, it was likely due to the influence of her aunt that, in the end, the company still ended up in

Janessa’s hands...

Moreover, in the later stages, there was a significant amount of business dealings between Sherritt Group and

Lockhart Group.

As a result, Janessa gradually grew closer and closer to Sebastian.

In her previous life, Madelyn not only refrained from resisting all of this, but she even assisted this woman.

Janessa, in her power grab. She helped her snatch away everything that belonged to herself.

No! In this life. | absolutely cannot repeat the smistake! Madelyn’s resolve even further.

At that moment, Sebastian cin carrying breakfast.

As soon as he walked through the door, he noticed the girl lost in thought and couldn't help but ask, “What's on

your mind?”

“Oh! It’s nothing. | was just lost in thought,” Madelyn said with a smile.

Sebastian responded with a nonchalant hum, his face devoid of any expression. He placed the thermos. flask he

was holding onto the table and proceeded to open it.

In an instant, the aroma of food wafted through the air

“Have sbreakfast,” Sebastian suggested, scooping a bowl of plain oatmeal and sitting next to her.

Madelyn obediently nodded and began to eat her breakfast.

Watching Sebastian carefully cool down the piping hot patmeal, spoonful by spoonful, before gently feeding it to

her, occasionally urging her to eat slowly, Madelyn felt her happiness was off the charts.

In just a little while, after breakfast, Sebastian headed off to work at the office.

Left with no other choice, Madelyn found herself lyingalone in bed, consumed by boredom.

Fortunately, the luxury ward had its perks. Among them was the fact that the drawers were stocked with at

variety of reading materials, including and comics. Bored, Madelyn simply decided to pick up a book at

random.

Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep while reading

When she woke up again, Josiah and Jillian had already arrived.

“How did it go? Have you found the surveillance footage?” Madelyn immediately asked as soon as she saw

the two.

Josiah gave a nod of affirmation. “Don’t worry, we've found the surveillance footage. True enough, a portion of it

was erased by someone. However, we've already gone to the location vou mentioned, and the

team there has started working on its recovery”

That's good Madelyn nodded slightly.

At that moment, Jillian expressed her outrage from the side, saying, “However, who could have possibly done

this? It’s so ruthlessly cruel.”

“If I'm not mistaken. Janessa is most likely the one behind this, Madelyn said.

Upon hearing this, both of them involuntarily gasped.

Immediately. Josiah said with a face full of resentiment, F*ck! | knew that woman was no good from the start. |

can’t believe she dared to do this. Does she have death wish? I'm going to confront her right now!”

As he spoke, Josiah was resolved to leave without looking back.

“Wait!” Madelyn hurriedly called out to him. “Josiah, don’t be so impulsive. This matter is still under

investigation. Even if we're going to confront someone, we need evidence first.”

After a pause, she continued in a calm tone, “Let's keep this matter between us for now. Only the three of us

need to know. The main issue is that I'm currently incapacitated and can’t do anything. What if Janessa sends

someone to end me? | wouldn't even have the strength to fight back, would 17*

“Madelyn is right, Mr. Josiah. We should be more thoughtful and avoid acting rashly,” Jillian calmly advised.

Afterward, with a hint of worry, she complained, “However, Janessa is really ruthless! Madelyn, if you hadn't

dodged quickly yesterday, you would've...”

Jillian didn’t voice the words that followed, but everyone knew what she wanted to say,

Josiah was even more infuriated. “Where on earth does this woman get the audacity to threaten your life!”

Madelyn suddenly let out a chuckle and sighed helplessly. “Speople are just born malicious, carrying the

traits of a villain in their bones. What can one do about it?”

“All right, then.” Josiah had nothing more to say, and he could only urge, “Then you should just rest well in the

hospital for this period of time. There’s no need to worry about anything else. Leave the rest to me.”
