“I might not be able to do that, though. If | take over the company in the future, I'll have male assistants and

many of the clients I'll be dealing with will be men How am | supposed to maintain distance?” Madelyn asked,

feigning seriousness.

Sebastian's expression turned increasingly grim. She’s doing this on purpose, isn’t she?

Upon seeing the situation, Madelyn continued with a smile. “Of course, all of this is strictly professional. | swear |

won't have any feelings for them!”

As she spoke, she solemnly raised her palm.

Upon seeing the situation, Sebastian scoffed. His anger seemed to have subsided.

Their car gradually disappeared into the distance,

At that moment. Janessa emerged from the shadows. She watched the car disappear into the distance with

venomous gaze.

Originally, she had hoped to see Madelyn make a fool of herself. However, to her utter surprise, Madelyn stole

the show and even won the favor of the Blfamily.

D*mn it! Why on earth is she this lucky? Why do all the good things always seem to fall into her lap? She's just a

nobody! Janessa was teetering on the brink of madness due to jealousy. It seems | have to devise a plan quickly

to take this b*tch down a peg!

Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly heard the sound of a car door being kicked from behind.

Immediately, the car alarm began to blare.

When she turned around, she saw Hayden.

At that moment, Hayden was consumed wholly by wrath. He repeatedly kicked his car door forcefully, cursing

out loud, “A good-for-nothing will always be a good-for-nothing, no matter what!”

When Hayden thought about the embarrassment he suffered at the banquet earlier, he couldn't help but curse

Madelyn and Josiah in his heart over and over again.

As Janessa observed his furious demeanor, an idea struck her, and she cup with a plan. Josiah has always

been accustomed to a life of leisure. Even if he joins the military now, | bet it'll be hard to change his nature and

habits, making it difficult for him to shoulder great responsibilities. However, Hayden is different. Despite his

young age, he’s already a major in the military. Given his rate of promotion, he'll likely rise through the ranks

faster than Josiah. In other words, his future is immeasurably bright, Morover, it’s clear that Hayden hates Josiah.

When the tcomes, he certainly won't just stand by and watch Josiah climb the ranks in the military. | bet he'll

do something, and whether Josiah can rise in the ranks is still an uncertainty. In that case, | should get

acquainted with Hayden. Maybe I'll be able to leverage Hayden's influence to my advantage in the future.

When Janessa’s train of thought ended there, she subtly moved closer to Hayden.

Hayden was still cursing under his breath, “It was bad enough that old fart always favored Josiah since we were

kids, but he even causedto be humiliated in front of so many people today! It's infuriating! If 1 ever become

the head of the Blfamily. I'll make sure he’s the first one to suffer!”

Upon hearing those words, his henchmen didn’t dare to breathe a word, fearful that any unnecessary

“Mr. Hayden, why are you so worked up? In my opinion, you're countless times better compared to that good-

for-nothing Josiah” At that moment, a fairly attractive woman approached with a beaming smile.

It was none other than Janessa

“Who are you?” Hayden immediately cast her a wary glance.

“My nis Janessa, daughter of the Sherritt family, Nice to meet you,” Janessa said with a charming

smile.

Following that, she spoke softly. “I must confess, Mr. Hayden, | was captivated by your elegance at the banquet

earlier. | wonder if | have the honor of becoming your friend.”

Few men in the world could resist the admiration of a woman, let alone a beautiful one.

When Hayden heard that, his confidence that had been previously shattered found support.

He immediately agreed with a laugh, “Of course!

“As a friend, may | invite you to sit with me? | have a lot to share with you,” Janessa said with a gentle smile.

Hayden paused for a moment, but then he figured she must have been captivated by his charm, so he

unmediately agreed. “No problem. Let’s go.”

The following day, when Madelyn entered the classroom, she heard Tristan’s exclamation. “Oh my god! Madelyn,

you were absolutely handslast night! I'm almost becoming your fan.”

“Con, it’s nothing.” Madelyn laughed it off nonchalantly, not giving the matter much thought.

At that moment, Josiah also entered the classroom, textbook in hand.

Madelyn recalled the events of the previous night and promptly asked, “Josiah, didn’t you mention enlisting in

the military? What are your family’s plans moving forward?”

“My family decided that I should finish this last semester, then join the military. I guess from now on, we'll only

be able to meet when I'm on leave.” After Josiah finished speaking, he sighed, disappointed.

Madelyn, however, was delighted for him and immediately encouraged, “That's great! Since you've decided to

join the army, you must strive hard. We'll have plenty of opportunities to meet in the future! Besides, I'm still

waiting for you to beca high-ranking official and look out forwhen you return.”

After Madelyn finished speaking, her group of friends chuckled.

Josiah grinned, too. Then, with a serious nod, he said, all right, I'll definitely work hard, Madelyn. You

must wait for me.”

His tone was inexplicably solemn as if he was making a promise.

The atmosphere turned slightly awkward.

Madelyn was taken aback for a moment before bursting into hearty laughter. “Do you think this is sstage

play? Why must | wait for you? Do you wantto for you to get married and have children, then hvitefor a

wedding?”

After she said that, they all snickered.

Chapter 308 A Public Embarrassment

After classes were over, Madelyn planned to head to the combat training center.

Finished

A lot had happened a while back, and Madelyn had been resting at home. However, that didn’t mean she had

forgotten about the last tshe was bullied.

She was itching for revenge after Lindsay had the audacity to have someone teach her a lesson last time. While

she was not one to stir up trouble, she wasn't afraid of it either. Her principle in life had always been an eye for

an eye.

Since everything had been sorted out, she thought it was tto settle the score with Lindsay.

When Madelyn, accompanied by Josiah, Jillian, and others, reached the campus entrance, a well-dressed. woman

suddenly rushed up to them.

She was none other than Madelyn’s stepmother, Regina

“Why are you here?” Madelyn’s mood soured the moment she laid eyes on Regina.

Regina suddenly dropped to her knees, humbly clutching the corner of Madelyn’s clothes, and cried out,

“Madelyn, please, | beg you to forgive me! I truly understand my mistake. Please, helppersuade your father

not to divorce me, okay?”

Madelyn frowned. Does she have a loose screw?

Disdainfully, she spat, “Get up now. Don’t embarrass yourself here.”

However, Regina continued to wail and shouted, “No! If you don’t forgive me, | won't get up!”
