Chapter 992
Madelyn put her thoughts aside and focused on her work. Soon after, she received messages from Dorian and
Clement.
The studio planned to hold a meeting and a gathering for the people working there.
Madelyn looked at the group chat and saw everyone urging her to attend. The group chat was lively as many
people were texting there.
[Madelyn, you must attend!]
[Yes! You left in a hurry last time, and we didn’t have a chance to chat with you.]
Many people were still sending messages in the group chat. Madelyn muted it and replied to the two people: [I’ll try
to make it.]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMadelyn had a lot of work to do. Many people were waiting for her draft, so she could not waste any time.
The nights during winter always seemed a little longer. After confirming with the client that her draft was
acceptable, she wanted to send it to the studio. Then, she thought about the gathering tonight and decided only to
send the draft tomorrow as she did not want to spoil her colleagues’ mood and make them work overtime.
Madelyn stood up and rubbed her neck as the sky got completely dark. A maid knocked on the door and said, “Mrs.
Jardin, dinner is ready.”
Madelyn opened the door, stepped out, and saw the maid standing outside. Madelyn responded, “I’m eating outside
today.”
The maid followed her and said, “Before Mr. Jardin went out, he mentioned that you don’t have to attend the
company’s annual dinner party tonight, but you can’t go out either unless you call him and let him know. Also, don’t
forget to take your medicine.”
Madelyn thought, ‘Cecilia has actually done so much for me. She ruined my wedding photoshoot with him, and now
I don’t even need to attend the annual dinner party.’
She did not respond to the maid. Instead, she just closed the master bedroom’s door to block the sounds that
annoyed her.
Madelyn changed into a different outfit and called for a car.
She was holding her phone as she walked downstairs. She wore a beige knitted sweater and a black knitted slit
skirt. The snug attire outlined her well-proportioned figure. She tied her long hair with a hairband and draped a red
scarf over her arm. She was also carrying a bag. Her outfit was casual but elegant.
The maid asked, “Mrs. Jardin, are you really going out? Mr. Jardin has instructed that you can’t go out today.”
Madelyn ignored the maid and walked to the entrance. She wore her flat shoes and said, “He doesn’t get to tell me
what to do. I won’t be eating the meal on the table, so you all can have it to avoid wasting food.”

her bag and stepped forward, “This is for you. You should go home for the
holidays.”
Margaret carried Dalton, “Oh my, I can’t accept this!” Though she said that, she still accepted the money, “If I
leave, who’ll take care of Dalton? After so long, I got somewhat attached to him.”
Madelyn glanced at Dalton. He was drooling and smiling. He leaned forward and wanted Madelyn to carry him. But
she remained indifferent. She merely glanced at him and did not make any move to carry him.
Madelyn responded, “No worries, the studio will take a break after today. I’ll leave Dal temporarily to the other
maids. I’ll try to watch him, too. He’ll be fine. I might not have given you as much money as him, but it should be
enough for you to spend.”
Margaret replied, “Okay, thank you so much!”
Then, a regular taxi had just arrived. Madelyn did not call for a private hire car.
The maid anxiously called Zach. When the call was connected, it was noisy on Zach’s end. The maid said, “Mr.
Jardin, Mrs. Jardin has left. Yes… She left alone and took a red scarf with her. She didn’t mention where she’s
going.”
