The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning

The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 323
Madelyn felt like Forrest had a point. She hadn’t really planned on buying so many street snacks all at once. After thinking it over,
she decided to hold off on getting more and focus on enjoying the ones she already had. She realized she might have gone a bit
overboard with her shopping.
In the midst of the bustling crowd, Madelyn couldn’t shake the feeling that there were intense gazes fixed on her. But whenever
she looked around, there was nothing there. She must have been imagining things.
As the day started to turn into evening, the sky slowly got darker. Madelyn and Forrest left the market, feeling a bit disappointed
that they hadn’t been able to explore everything.
Originally, Madelyn was supposed to head home, but she didn’t really want to go back just yet. They found a spot outside a
closed café in the park, finishing up the remaining snacks while watching the fireworks overhead.
She turned her head slightly and glanced at Forrest, who was completely absorbed in the fireworks, his eyes reflecting the
sparkling lights. Forrest also turned to look at her. Madelyn said, “I think it’s about time for me to head out.”
“I can give you a ride.” She smiled and declined, “It’s alright, I’ll grab a taxi later. You should go home too and not miss dinner
with your family.”
He thought, ‘Family dinner... truth is, it doesn’t mean much to me anymore.’ Then he said, “Sure, let’s go.”
They cleaned left the park. up the food wrappers and Out of nowhere, Forrest brought up, Aren’t you worried that Ethan might
find out I hung out with you today?”
Madelyn replied calmly, “Even if he does find out, why should I be scared of him?” Forrest said, “Are you really naive or just
pretending? Even I don’t get the privilege to stay at the Arnold residence... Do you realize what that implies? What does he
really think of you?”
Madelyn answered sincerely, “So, what am I supposed to assume? You know about his ex-girlfriend, right? The girl he was ready
to defend with his life.”
Ethan’s car accident, the one that left him paralyzed from the waist down, was because of that girl. He had been fond of her
since high school, and they were together for three years.

Back then, Ethan had a temperament somewhat similar to the one Forrest has now, but Ethan was even more reckless. The only
one who could tame that version of Ethan was that girl. George had shared all of this with Madelyn.
When Ethan’s ex-girlfriend left, he fell into a deep despair. She had left due to opposition from the Arnold family. However, things
were different at present. Ethan had the capacity to protect the person he cared about.
Ethan and his ex-girlfriend had once shared a profound love. Madelyn believed she couldn’t match up to that girl in Ethan’s
heart. She thought that Ethan and his ex-girlfriend had parted ways due to misunderstandings, and maybe, someday, they could
find their way back to each other.
“In this regard, I can’t compete with her. Besides... Ethan might not even be clear himself about whether he truly likes me.” She
mused to herself. ‘
Perhaps... he just wants someone to fill the emptiness in his heart.’ Madelyn continued, “After Ethan left yesterday, he went
overseas to find her.
Forrest inquired, “How do you know all of this?” Madelyn responded, “George told me over the phone after Ethan boarded the
plane yesterday.”
Forrest couldn’t be ignorant of everything that had transpired with Ethan. Otherwise, considering Ethan’s personality, he wouldn’t
allow Forrest to get so close to Madelyn without a second thought. He understood that Ethan, much like Zach, could be
possessive.
