Reborn to my engagement night by Baxter Walters

Chapter 275 Do Not Touch

The company, completely deserted at this very moment, was incredibly serene.

Finished

Zachary returned because he had left something here when he finished work, so he had no choice but to come

back temporarily to retrieve it.

The sound of footsteps echoed clearly, gradually growing louder as they approached.

Upon reaching his office. Zachary iminediately switched on the lights. However, something felt off. He couldn't

quite put his finger on it, but the office gave him the impression that someone had been there.

With this in mind. Zachary quietly picked up a baseball bat that was kept behind the door for self-defense. He

then heightened his alertness and began to search throughout the entire finance department, hoping to see if

there was anyone around.

It seemed as if Zachary was spooking himself. Every the spotted a potential hiding spot, he would, hoist his

baseball bat high, declaring, “Let's see where you can run!” Only when he confirmed there was no one there

would he breathe a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Madelyn, Josiah, and the locksmiths were hiding outside the window of a twelve-story building.

Despite standing on the iron frof an air conditioner, the combined weight of the four people made the frame

wobble slightly. Given the height of the building, a slight misstep could potentially lead to a disastrous fall.

Therefore, at this very moment all four of them held their breath, their legs trembling, not daring to even let out

a sigh.

Fortunately, after about ten minutes of thorough searching, Zachary had inspected every suspicious corner he

could think of. Finding no one out of the ordinary, he concluded that he might have just been overthinking. He

then returned the baseball bat to its original place, grabbed what he needed, turned off the lights, and left.

Soon, Tristan’s voice cthrough the walkie-talkie. “Boss, they've left. You're safe now.”

The four people outside the window finally breathed a sigh of relief and then climbed back in.

Following that, the two locksmiths proceeded with the installation of the pinhole cameras. Meanwhile, Madelyn

and Josiah continued to examine the safe hidden within the drawer.

“It seems we won't be able to open it today. We'll cback when we have time.” Seeing that it was getting

late, Madelyn didn’t want to waste any more time, and Josiah nodded in agreement.

Then, Madelyn glanced at the individuals who were setting up the cameras. “Have you guys finished setting up?”

“Almost done. The two nodded, then pointed out several areas. “We've set up cameras at these spots and linked

them to your computer for remote access. From now on, you can monitor the situation here whenever you

want.”

Madelyn gave a slight nod.

Everything was finally completed here. Following that, they discreetly slipped away under the cover of darkness.

Tristan had arranged for vehicles outside to facilitate their departure.

“Thank you so much for your help. How about | treat you guys to a late-night meal?” Madelyn suddenly

two renowned locksmith brothers, as she might need their assistance in the future.

“Ms. Thornton, you're really too kind. Inviting us for a late-night snack over such a trivial matter, we just can’t

accept!” Besides, they were already under Tristan’s command, merely earning their keep by solving problems for

others.

At that moment. Tristan laughed and shamelessly said, Con, don’t refuse the offer. Ever since we got to

know Madelyn, we've been frequently involved in all sorts of mischief together. It’s only right that she treats us

to a meal, isn't it?”

Upon hearing this, everyone burst into hearty laughte

Madelyn’s smile was as bright as a summer flower, exuding a warmth that was hard to resist. Josiah responded

with a smile of his own, but inside, he felt a deep sense of melancholy.

He was a young master of the prestigious Blfamily once infamous for his wild and unrestrained behavior.

Who among the streets didn’t fear him and his entourage? Even those who weren't afraid still treated him with a

certain degree of respect

Yet now, he. Josiah, had surprisingly been defeated by Madelyn!

Though Madelyn was admittedly attractive, she was by no means a seductive siren! What was it about her that

was so captivating, that increasingly made it difficult for his gaze to stray from her....

“Hey, just relax! | know our endeavors might not be the most honorable, but | assure you, we're not doing

anything that would bring divine retribution. And besides, if there are any benefits or good opportunities in the

future, do you think Id leave you out?” Madelyn said with a warm smile.

Her carefree personality was surprisingly appealing, so the group dispensed with formalities and decided, to go

out together for food and drinks.

Even though Madelyn and Josiah were both born into wealthy families, their lifestyle was rather laid-back.

That night, they didn’t seek out any upscale restaurants for their late-night snack. Instead, they stumbled upon

a seemingly popular roadside eatery. They casually ordered sbarbecue, accompanied by beer, and spent

their teating, drinking, and chatting away. After three rounds of drinks, they called it a night.

Finally, everyone said their goodbyes. Madelyn, with her full belly, hailed a cab and went home.

At this point, it was already past midnight.

Sebastian was clad in a pristine white robe, seated on the living room couch. He was multitasking, managing his

work while sipping on calming herbal tea His demeanor was relined and neat, yet carried an undertone of

restrained desire.

“I'm back.” As soon as her voice echoed, Madelyn stepped through the door, tossing aside her bag. She then

changed into her shoes and made her way inside while dragging her feet.

Her footsteps were unsteady, as though she were drunk

Upon seeing her stumble in through the door, clearly ebriated, carrying the scent of barbecue and reeking of

alcohol, Sebastian couldn't help but furrow his brows. His expression showed a hint of dissatisfaction.

Where on earth did she ran off to again this time?

However, Sebastian didn’t probe further. He merely suggested in an indifferent tone, “Go shower and get some

sleep. You should rest carly,”

No sooner had he finished speaking than a soft body suddenly nestled into his embrace. A pair of hazy eyes

gazed up at him as she nuzzled against his chest. Small, restless hands even ventured inside his robe.

“I'm exhausted to death here, and you don’t even care. Imph!”

Madelyn was completely oblivious that at that very moment, she was acting just like a little kitten, nuzzling into

his warm embrace tand again. The lands she had slipped into his clothes were also somewhat restless,

exploring all over.

Sebastian was speechless in his exasperation.

Did this woman even know what she was doing? Even if she had been drinking, she couldn't just go around

touching everything!

However. Madelyn showed no reaction. Instead, she was subconsciously a bit thrilled. She remembered how,

whenever she touched Sebastian in the past, he would instantly push her away with force.

Yet, ever since she had changed, it appeared that Sebastian wasn’t as resistant to her as he used to be.

Hehe, how wonderful.

In the end. Sebastian found himself at a loss with the woman. He had no choice but to set aside his work for the

moment and take her to the bathroom to hastily bath her..

After he had finished washing her, he gently lifted her and laid her on the bed, then he covered her with a

blanket.

As a result, as soon as Madelyn hit the bed, she fell asleep. She even smacked her lips in her sleep, peacefully

turning over without a care in the world. Watching her, Sebastian could only feel a mix of helplessness and

amusement.
