Chapter 272 Pleading For Mercy And Yielding

#Finished

An evasive look flashed in Madelyn’s eyes, and she dare not meet the profound gaze of Sebastian.

“Hmm?” Sebastian stared at her, his voice chilling a few degrees further.

Madelyn was at a loss for words, her mouth agape in hesitation for quite stime, yet she couldn't utter a

single word.

With a softer tone, she tried to soothe him, “Sebastian, | was just so worried about you. That's why | wanted to

help. Can you please stop being angry... When you're upset, it scares me.”

Her eyes, clear and innocent like a young deer’s, seemed to shimmer with unshed tears. Madelyn, in an attempt

to appease Sebastian, crawled over to his side. Her gaze was so pure and transparent that it made one feel as

though they could see straight into her heart, which was as untouched as a sheet of white Paper.

With a sense of helplessness, he sighed...

Sebastian knew Madelyn was definitely not as simple as she appeared on the surface. There were too many

enigmatic aspects about her that remained unfathomable,

Yet, as he looked at her innocently harmless face, Sebastian found himself unable to muster any anger. In the

end, all he could do was let out a soft sigh, advising her, “From now on, you're not allowed to do such dangerous

things alone. If | find out there’s a next time

Before he could finish his words, Madelyn interrupted Never again, absolutely never again. From now on. I'll let

you know wherever I'm going, okay?”

Madelyn leveled an innocent expression at Sebastian, whose anger finally simmered down to a manageable

level.

“However, how did you know | was here too?” Madelyn asked with a hint of curiosity.

Could it have been Grimo who spilled the beans to Sebastian? No one else could possibly have known about her

coming here. Ah, what an oversight on her part. She had calculated everything but failed to consider Grimo. If

only she had given him a heads-up. Madelyn was somewhat annoyed.

“Lydia mentioned you hadn’t been hin two days, so | had Malcolm look into it,” Sebastian said, hist voice

casual as he glanced at her. “That’s how | found out you'd taken leave from school and booked a flight over here

on the sday. What, did you think | wouldn't know if you didn’t tell me?” His side profile was strikingly

handsome, almost unbelievably so.

So that’s what happened...” Madelyn mused, nodding slightly in thought.

Following that, a warm and dry hand reached under her delicate armpits. Sebastian gently lifted the petite figure

from the icy floor, assisting her onto the bed. He then lightly tousled her hair. “All right, you've worked hard

today. Rest early, and tomorrow morning we'll pack up and return htogether.”

Madelyn obediently nodded, then settled back onto the bed, a quiet sigh of relief slipping from her.

Fortunately, Sebastian didn’t intend to dig deeper. Had he truly insisted on forcing her to spill any secrets, she

would have been doomed because she had nothing to say.

At that moment, the sound of the shower echoed from the bathroom, where Sebastian was freshening up. As

Madelyn gazed at the blurry silhouette, she inexplicably felt a wave of comfort wash over her.

In no time, Sebastian, clad in a bathrobe, emerged. He naturally laid down next to her, extending his slender

wrist and gently drawing her body into his embrace.

A warm breath gently brushed against her ear, and Madelyn’s petite figure was cradled in his arms. Her face

instantly flushed an intense shade of red, and her heart gradually filled with a sweet affection.

She had a good night's sleep after that.

The following day, the two of them woke up at the crack of dawn, packed their belongings, and were ready to

return home. Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Madelyn walked straight over to open the door. Seeing who it was, she couldn't help but smile. “Grimo? What

brings you here so early?”

“Didn’t you mention that you were returning to your hcountry this morning?” Grimo said casually. “It so

happens that | am also leaving today, off on a business trip to another country. That's why | made a special effort

to cand say goodbye to you.”

“Safe travels.” At that moment, Sebastian also emerged from within.

Grimo clearly hadn't anticipated running into Sebastian here, his expression betraying his surprise. However,

upon further thought, it made sense. After all, Sebastian was Madelyn’s fiancé. It was only natural for them to

spend the night together.

With that, he managed a friendly smile. His grin was pure and gentle, devoid of any mischievous air. Instead, it

held an inexplicable touch of indifference. “Twish you all a smooth journey,” he said.

The couple had faint smiles as they nodded.

Following that, Adelar cforward, dragging their luggage behind him. “Boss, we can set off now.”

Grimo gave a slight nod, then waved at Madelyn and Sebastian, turning around to leave.

The two of them returned to the room once more to pack their belongings.

Fortunately, both of them hadn't brought much over, making packing a relatively easy task. In no time, Madelyn

had neatly organized her clothes and other daily necessities, then closed the suitcase.

Half an hour later, at the airport.

Harriet and the others had been waiting for stime. Wesley was standing right next to her. They had been

talking about something while a hint of a smile played at the corners of Harriet’'s mouth.

At that moment, Sebastian took Madelyn by the hand and strode forward, asking in a cold voice, “Is everyone

here?”

Harriet had been all smiles, but the moment she turned her head and saw Madelyn, her smile abruptly faded.

Why was this woman here?

However, she didn’t ask much else, only stating with a cold expression, “Everyone's here. We can set off

now.”

At that moment, Madelyn glanced at Harriet. Their eyes met, exchanging a look of jealousy and disdain that only

women could understand.

Since everyone had arrived, Sebastian didn’t say much else,

A moment later, as if recalling something, he turned back to Harriet and instructed, “Ms. Moore, there's no need

for you to return hfor now. There's another matter that requires your attention.”

Harriet was clearly taken aback and stumbled over her words. “Huh? W-What else is there...”

“The Atharia branch has a major project underway that requires supervision. As the finance manager, you'll

definitely have responsibilities to shoulder, so you should head over there for now. As for what specifically needs

to be done, I'll have my assistant infom you.”

After speaking, Sebastian turned to look at everyone. His determined and handsface showed no emotion as

he said in a cold voice. “It's about time. Let's board the plane.”

Upon hearing the words, everyone in the group nodded in agreement before they began to board the plane.

Harriet stood frozen on the spot, a clear hint of desolation flickering in her otherwise calm eyes.

She had risen at the crack of dawn to pack her belongings, all set to return home. But why, at this critical

moment, did Sebastian suddenly ask her to go to Athari?

Could it be that he deliberately wanted to transfer her away so he wouldn't have to see her anymore?

At this point, Wesley couldn't bear to watch anymore, but as this was a matter of official business, he couldn't

say much. All he could do was turn around to comfort Harriet, “Harriet, just focus on your work over there. I'm

sure you'll be able to return hafter stime.”
