The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning

Chapter 261

However, Zach acted as if he did not hear her. He sat down in front of the dressing lable and commanded her with closed eyes, “Come and blow dry my hair.”

Madelyn’s hand froze and she did not respond.

A few moments passed and Zach grew a little impatient. He opened his eyes and looked at her reflection in the mirror.

“Did you hear me?” he asked.

‘His tone is so familiar. He’s still as pushy as ever,’ thought Madelyn.

In their past life, Zach had always liked to buy clothes for her and force her to wear them. If she refused to do so, he would use the exact tone on her once he lost his temper.

Madelyn already had Zach figured out. He would not hurt her as long as she complied with his wishes. However, she could not help but feel scared now that they were alone in a room, especially since her phone had no signal No one would know if something had happened to her.

Madelyn trudged over and retrieved a hair dryer. Then, she plugged it into the power socket on the dressing table and attempted to blow- dry his hair.

Zach’s hair was not too short or long: his bangs fell over his forehead and covered his eyes. His eyes were closed, and his breathing was shallow as if he had fallen asleep.

Madelyn gently blew dry his hair and was done in less than half an hour.

“I’m… I’m done.”

Madelyn put away the blow dryer. Meanwhile, Zach got up and went straight to bed.

“He’s acting like this is my responsibility,’ she thought.

“Switch off the light,” said Zach.

Madelyn was speechless.

Madelyn lay on the couch and nervously clutched the blankets.

She stammered, “I… I… I’m used to sleeping with the lights on.”

Zach did not respond after hearing her words.

In the end, Madelyn could not stand his pushiness and got up to switch off the lights, leaving only the lamp by the corner of the room on.

Then, she lay back down. She closed her eyes and gradually turned drowsy.

It was four-thirty in the morning. Zach listened to the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.

‘She’s been in there for a whole hour. What in the world is she up to?”

Madelyn stood under the running shower. The more she scratched her body, the itchier she felt. Her neck and a few parts of her body had already turned bloody from her scratching.

Madelyn looked into the mirror. Her face had swollen and was almost unrecognizable.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Zach knocked on the bathroom door from outside.

“How much longer are you going to take? What’re you doing in there?”

Madelyn grabbed the glass at the side and flung it at the door.

She sobbed, “This is all your fault! I knew you were up to no good. You set me up! Gel away from me!”

Zach frowned at her sudden anger. He tried to stay patient and knocked on the door again.

‘It’s so itchy! I’m so itchy all over!’ she thought.

Madelyn had no choice but to rub the scratched wounds.

Zach listened to the sobs coming from the bathroom and finally lost it. He abruptly kicked the door open. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Madelyn was alarmed by the loud noise.

She was completely naked. When she saw Zach at the door, she frantically covered her chest and cried out, “Get out! Who let you in here? Get out!’

She threw another glass in a panic, which Zach easily dodged.

He strode up to her and grabbed her arm. Then, he stared at her previously fair arm, which was now covered in scratch marks.

‘She’s always liked to do pedicures. Did she do this to hersell?’ he thought.

“Let go of me! Don’t look at me! Get out!” Madelyn shrieked.

She was in a panic. What do I do? He’s seen me naked!’

“What happened to you?” he asked in an icy tone that came with an unnoticeable hint of panic.

“You’re asking me?! Weren’t you the one who got someone to drug the dessert? I knew you were up to no good. Are you happy now that I’m in this state!?” Madelyn shrieked as tears streamed down her face.

She was devastated.

Zach frowned deeply. He grabbed a towel nearby and wrapped it around Madelyn before carrying her out of the room.
