Chapter 669
Frida sipped on the tea brought by the assistant, “I heard that Madelyn’s back, and you kicked Yvonne out of the
Southern Haven Villas. Is that true?
“I asked you to take care of Yvonne for me and is this how you treat her? Don’t forget who helped you to get where
you are today.”
Zach walked straight to his desk and threw the documents In his hand on the table. “Mrs. Young, of course I
remember your kindness and am very grateful for your help. However, I believe that you didn’t come all the way
here just to tell me these things.”
Zach took his seat and adjusted his tie with his slender lingers, looking relaxed.
Frida sneered, “Mrs. Young, huh? You’re married to my daughter. Have you no respect for your elders? You should
be addressing me as your mother–in–law!”
She put her cup of tea down as she spoke. Then, she stood up and walked over to Zach before handing him a red
and gold invitation card. “This is the quest list I’ve prepared for the banquet next month.”
Zach smiled arrogantly and opened the Invitation card. The name, ‘Madelyn Jent‘ was the first name written on it.
With a resounding clap, Zach closed the invitation card. “Mrs. Young, I’ve always thought that you were a wise
person.”
The expression on Frida’s face turned cold, “Zach, It has been four years, and it’s time for you to fulfill the promise
you made back then. Don’t forget about the agreement we signed.”
“Times are different now. Do you really think those so–called agreements would still mean anything to me?” Zach
said mockingly.
Frida slammed her hand on the table. “Are you going back on your promise to marry Yvonne?
“Zach Jardin! It’s been seven years and Yvonne has always loved you. Even a dog would become loyal after so long.
She wasted seven years on you! She’s the light of my life, how could you have the heart to treat her like this!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZach crossed his legs, lit up a cigarette, and exhaled a pulf of smoke. “Mrs. Young, what do you think I should do
then?”
Frida’s gaze turned cold as she retorted, “Marrying her is your only option now. I want you to tell the entirety of
Ventropolis that my daughter, Yvonne Young, is your wife.”
Zach chuckled deeply and his voice was filled with arrogance and disdain as he said, “Of course, I’ll keep my
promise. Also, I’ll be sure to include the Arnold family on the list.”
Frida was taken aback and at a loss for words.
“The Arnold family… Do they still exist in Ventropolis?‘ Frida thought inwardly.
Zach’s words were like a dagger stabbing through her heart.
Frida then went into the elevator and left. When she arrived at the entrance of the company, the receptionist
bowed respectfully to her after learning about how wealthy she was, “Goodbye, Mrs. Young.”
Frida opened the car door and heard Yvonne asking her anxiously, “Mom, how did it go? Did he… say yes?”
“Of course, he did. We still have his secret with us. I’ll never let him off the hook if he dares to go back on his word.”
Yvonne thought that Zach would break his promise alter Madelyn’s return. She was aware that their relationship
was not as simple as it appeared to outsiders. Madelyn’s existence was like a chip on Yvonne’s shoulder.
She was engaged to Zach for four years, yet he had never touched her. In the hospital back in France, Yvonne saw
Madelyn lying on the hospital bed with a patient gown, and there were hickeys all over her neck. Yvonne was not
stupid, and she could guess what they had done behind her back.
Shortly after Frida left, Zach received a call from the Southern Haven Villas.
Zach frowned as spoke with a stern voice, “Bring her to the company first.”
“Yes, Mr. Jardin.”

Madelyn’s phone rang as soon as she said those words. After seeing the caller ID, she hesitated for a moment
before answering. Then, she spoke in an annoyed tone, “You said you were going to give me three days, and the
time hasn’t come yet.”
“If you want to go to her grave. I’ll come with you in the afternoon after I’m done with my meeting.” Zach replied.
“I don’t need you to go with me. I can go alone.
“It’s either you don’t go or let me come with you. Your choice,” he responded, his voice immediately turning cold.
She did not really have a choice, did she?
So. Madelyn reluctantly agreed. “Then I’ll wait for you downstairs later.”
She did not want to cause any unnecessary trouble.
The sky was sunny and bright in the morning but suddenly turned cloudy by afternoon, as if there might be a heavy
rain later. So, Madelyn brought an umbrella with her, just in case.
The bodyguard drove as Madelyn sat in the rear passenger seat. The journey lasted for more than an hour before
they finally arrived at the Jardin Corporation.
Madelyn sat inside the car with a bouquet of balloon flowers that symbolized eternal love.
Some said that when balloon flowers bloomed, happiness would follow. Some people would be able to seize it, while
others were destined to miss it.
In the mansion she lived in when she was younger, there was a large patch of balloon flowers planted in the
garden. Rosario told Madelyn that her mother had planted them in the past, but for some reason, all of them
withered overnight.
Madelyn was starting to get impatient as she looked up to the top floor of the building, which was barely visible.
After about half an hour, she finally saw someone coming out of the building.
Madelyn withdrew her gaze and her expression turned calm. She thought that they would not meet again for three
days.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZach got into the car, wrapped his arm around her waist, and took a deep whiff of the fragrance on her, just like
before. “I’ve made a reservation at a restaurant for tonight.”
Madelyn ignored him and said nonchalantly, “Let’s go. It might rain soon.”
The car started.
Zach noticed the black dress she was wearing, and it reminded him of a person deep in his mind. After more than
twenty years, he only had a vague memory of her silhouette. However, he could not deny that her beauty was truly
one of a kind, and describing her as breathtaking would be an understatement.
The car drove on the mountain road for a while, and soon, they arrived at the bottom of the hill
They had to walk for the remaining stretch of the journey.
Madelyn still remembered where the grave was located. However, when they were just halfway into their journey,
she was already drenched in cold sweat. Her steps were unsteady, and she felt something wrong with her body. The
journey was only supposed to take them a little more than ten minutes, yet Madelyn spent almost half an hour. The
sky would be dark by the time they arrived at the grave if they kept this up.
“I’ll carry you on my back.” Zach immediately went to hold her up as soon as he saw her struggling. He gently
wiped off the sweat from her forehead and frowned as he asked, “Why does your hand feel so cold? Are you feeling
sick?”
“I should’ve worn thicker clothes. I’m fine. Let’s keep walking. It’s already getting late.”
Zach look off his blazer and put it on for Madelyn. Then, he lifted her off the ground and strode forward with steady
and swift steps. Madelyn felt very comfortable in his arms.
She did not struggle because she genuinely had no strength to walk further.
when they arrived at the grave, zach put her down.

Madelyn looked around the grave and realized that it was very clean. There was even a bouquet of balloon flowers
placed in front of the tombstone.
She looked at Zach, puzzled, “Did you come here earlier?”
‘No, it couldn’t be him! I know him too well. He would never do something like this, so who could it be?‘
