Chapter 70
Nate stood up and said nonchalantly, “I’ll give you three days to think about it. What else do you want, bring
them up together. If you miss this chance, you’ll never have another one.”
After they reached the door, Nate stopped in his tracks and spoke slowly, “If you had made a choice earlier,
your brother wouldn’t have to risk his own future for just one million.”
Maddy clenched her teeth. Her eyes were red. She tried her best to hold back her tears.
After Nate left, Maddy pulled out the needle on the back of her hand,
As she walked out of the hospital, she called Cassie. However, Mervin was no longer working at the
convenience store. Cassie had been searching the entire night but could not find him.
When Cassie and Maddy exchanged, she saw her pale face and reddened eyes. She was startled, “Maddy,
what’s wrong?”
Maddy shook her head, “Let’s find Mervin first.”
By the time it was getting dark, the call finally connected. Maddy said calmly, “Mervin, where are you?”
“I’m in military training…”
“Address.”
Mervin was silent for a while before he said, “Outsiders are not allowed to enter during military training.”
“Give your teacher or instructor the phone. I’ll talk to them.”
Mervin didn’t say another word.
Maddy was exhausted. She repeatedly asked, “Mervin, where are you?”
Mervin found a job near University A. He thought if Maddy came to look for him later, he could say that he
was working part-time here and so he could completely hide it.
It was unexpected that she would find out so quickly.
After a while, Mervin said, “Don’t run around. I’ll go find you.”
On the way to Maddy, Cassie understood everything from Maddy. For a moment, she did not know what to
say
Cassie knew that Tyrone was a bastard. Maddy and Mervin had always depended on each other since they
were young. She didn’t know that tlie brother she valued the most in her life had sold the acceptance letter and
given up on luis bright future. She was so angry.
Half an hour later, Mervin appeared at Maddy’s house,
Cassie felt that it was inappropriate for her to stay here under such circumstances, so she found an excuse to
go out and buy some groceries,
Maddy took out the card that Mervin gave hier before and placed it on the coffee table, “Is it because of
Tyrone?”
Based on the time that Mervin gave him the money, it was exactly around those two days.
Mervin stood there and didn’t ask her how she knew. He merely said, “I’m afraid they won’t give up. Those
people don’t have a bottom line and can do anything. With this money, we can protect ourselves if anything
happens.”
“Mervin…”
Mervin replied nonchalantly, “It’s best if you don’t take it and return it to Tyrone. I said I want to take care of
you. Although there isn’t much money, it should last for some time. I’ll…”
Maddy interrupted him, “Mervin, do you know what it means to you to give up on the admission letter this
time?”
After a pause, Mervin said, “Did you give up the opportunity to go to Paris too?”
“It’s precisely because I’ve given up once. I know what I lost, so I don’t want you to regret it.”
“There’s nothing to regret. Even if I don’t go to university, I can still…”
“You’re only eighteen now. If you don’t go to university, what do you want to do?” Maddy stared at the card in
front of her. “Now if you return the money, it’s no use, right?”
Mervin nodded.
i million was nothing in the eyes of the wealthy. This was just a complete deal for them. There was no chance
for him to go back on his word.
Maddy said, “I’ll handle this matter. Mervin, wait for my news.”
Mervin couldn’t help but frown. “How do you want to deal with it?”
“I’ll think of a way, Mervin Remember, you don’t have to give up your future for me or anyone. If… If I
succeed, you can go back to school. This is over.”
Mervin wanted to say something else, but Maddy said, “Let’s do this first. I want to sleep. You should go
home too.”
Mervin walked to the door and seemed to have sensed something. He turned around and said, “This is my
choice. I can bear the consequences. You don’t need to beg him.”
Maddy smiled faintly, “Who told you I’m going to beg lum. It’s just a normal transaction.”
“A deal for what?”
“Don’t worry about adult matters, just study.”
Mervin,”
”
By the time Cassie returned, Maddy was sitting on the sofa in a daze.
Walking over, she asked in a low voice, “Maddy, have you settled everything with Mervin?”
Maddy recollected her thoughts, “It’s almost done. I’ll go look for Nate tomorrow. There shouldn’t be any
problem.”
“Will that bastard Nate agree to it? He may just stand by and watch.”
Maddy stared ahead. After a few seconds, she said, “Maybe.”
After saying that, she stood up and said, “Cassie, I’m a little tired. I’ll go to bed first.”
“Okay, goodnight.” Cassie suddenly said, “Are you going to the check-up in two days? Let me accompany
you.”
Maddy stopped in her tracks and didn’t turn back. She said softly, “Let’s talk about it later.”
After returning to her room, Maddy opened the closet and was about to take a change of clothes, but her sight
couldn’t help but turn to the other side.
She took out all the clothes and shoes and sat on the bed, looking at them for a long time.
Ever since Maddy found out about the existence of this child, she never thought that Nate would be kind
enough to keep it. Regardless of his attitude, it was expected by Maddy. However, at this moment, she realized
what she was most afraid of.
The last child didn’t make it when it was four months old. It was about the same age as now…
“Maybe everything is fate.”
Without this child, she and Nate would be completely clear.
The next day, Maddy brought the files Nate gave her to Levitan Group. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
By the time she arrived, Jayce was liaving a fight with the receptionist. “What do you mean by a designer
from Glorious Jewelry is not allowed in? Why didn’t I know this rule when I came last time?”
The receptionist said politely, “I’m sorry, Miss. I’m not sure about the details.”
“If you don’t know, make a call and ask? I’m here to see Mr. Levitan. There’s something important!”
“Mr. Levitan has an important meeting today. No one can interrupt.”
“You…”
Jayce was enraged. When she was about to find another time to return, she turned around and saw Maddy standing quietly not far away.
Jayce couldn’t help but bit her lower lip. Why is she here? Could it be that she regrets rejecting this
opportunity?
Just when she was about to step forward, she saw a man coming out and taking Maddy in.
Jayce’s eyes widened and she questioned the receptionist, “She’s also a designer from Glorious Jewelry. Why is she allowed in?”
“Miss, she entered with Special Assistant Tadio. This has already exceeded our duties.”
Jayce clenched her fists, but she had no other choice but to leave.
