Liam had not left yet and asked, “Why didn’t you give her the latte you bought?”
Blake picked up the remaining three lattes and said, “Madelyn had surgery before and still recovering, so she can’t drink this. Besides, it’s been out for so long. If she got sick from drinking it, Mr. Jardin might kill me. You don’t know how scary he can be.”
Blake took a deep breath and continued, “It’s up to me to finish it all.
Zach had recently upgraded to a luxurious new Bentley. He spent most of his time by Madelyn’s side while making preparations for their wedding. The new car offered a smooth ride and had plenty of space. Besides the drinks and food, it was mostly filled with baby supplies.
Zach asked Madelyn, “Have you met him?”
Madelyn replied, “Mhm, he’s quite young. I think Blake is dating Liam. They seem like a perfect match.”
Zach’s expression kept changing throughout the conversation. It turned gloomy at the start before returning to normal. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
“You’re already married, so stop dreaming about him,” Zach said, his tone filled with possessiveness.
However, Madelyn argued straight to the point, “You have to admit that Liam is very talented. He wrote “At the Horizon’s End” when he was sixteen and published it at seventeen. He then started adapting his stories for various companies. Most importantly, he’s much younger than you.”
Zach was not angry. Instead, he slowly unbuttoned his suit and rolled his sleeves up. He said to her, “I think you’re being cheeky. The Strategic Planning Department secured the rights to adapt Liam’s work.
They’re probably finalizing a contract with Sky Studios as we speak. Soon, you’ll be adapting Liam’s work on your own. Satisfied now?”
Madelyn lowered her head and thought deeply. She replied, “I can’t draw right now. I’ve asked for time off from the studio and taking a break for the next month.”
Zach gave her a warning look and said, “Jardin Corporation is funding the entire project for Sky Studios. The pay will be ten times the usual. Are you sure you want to pass?”
Madelyn looked out the window and then looked back at Zach with a smile. She said, “Since you’re so wealthy and generous, it would be a shame not to get the paycheck. I’ll think of it as earning to buy Dalton’s clothes.”
“If the broadcast for “At the Horizon’s End” reaches the expected result, I’ll give you an extra 35% as a bonus,” Zach said generously. Madelyn thanked Zach jokingly, ” Thank you, Mr. Jardin.”
For Madelyn, Zach was sometimes a responsible husband, her brother, and sometimes even her boss.
Sky Studios was just a tiny art studio, and accepting this project from Jardin Corporation was a blessing for them. Many companies have been fighting for the rights to “At the Horizon’s End” and the Jardin Corporation has spent fifty million to acquire its copyright.
Madelyn knew that Zach was using this to bind her down. She did not think Zach had lowered his guard around her throughout this period. He knew she wanted to leave.
She was waiting for the right moment. Zach also knew that she had an accomplice. Although Zach knew that Kai was helping her and about the things they were doing behind his back. Zach was confident that Madelyn would not be able to leave Ventropolis. She might be an elusive prey, but Zach was a skillful hunter.
After Blake was full from eating, she walked out of The Deli with Liam. While waiting for the car, a familiar vehicle suddenly appeared before her. The windows winded down, and Kevin stared at them coldly. He ordered her, ” Get in the car.”
