CHAPTER 12

The air froze, and Chad Byron's gentle voice sounded like the shrill sound of a bell in Madelyn's ears.

Madelyn's face sank, she raised her pointed jaw, and then looked up into Chad Byron's laughing face, "Why don't you just go and talk to your parents? We're both in the clear. I'm not afraid of gossip. And now that medical technology is so advanced, I believe that medical technology can prove that I have not wronged Alexander."

The dim light in the corridor was like a yellow cloud. Madelyn at the moment was like a fairy out of the clouds, sacrosanct.

Chad Byron's beautiful eyes narrowed slowly into Madelyn's steady ones. A strange feeling rose in his heart. Now he felt a little embarrassed, "Sorry, sister-in-law, I drank too much tonight. I'll take care of it."

He turned and went downstairs. Madelyn breathed a sigh of relief. Her heart was still thumping at the thought of what had happened tonight. If The Byron family saw it, she would never be able to explain it.

She went back to her bedroom and took a bath. Maybe she was so tired these days, Madelyn fell asleep as soon as she got into bed.

"Mrs. Byron, breakfast is ready." Owen called out respectfully as he saw Madelyn coming upstairs.

Madelyn was wearing a white dress today. Her black hair hung casually over her shoulders and her little face without makeup had an air of freshness. "Good morning, Owen." Madelyn greeted Owen politely and sat down on the couch to wait for The older members of The Byron family to arrive for dinner.

Seeing Madelyn sitting on the couch, Owen walked up to her and said respectfully, "Mr. And Mrs. Byron had gone to work. The Old Mrs. Byron is still resting. Her ladyship told you not to wait for her dinner."

"Okay!" Madelyn didn't think much about it. She ate a little and went upstairs.

The holiday would end in two days. Madelyn was thinking about finding a time to talk to Darren Byron about the idea of her going to school after she got married.

The breeze was blowing slowly. Madelyn stood at the window and looked out the window. She remembered that she had not seen her nominal husband for two days. Seeing how early it was, Madelyn closed the door and turned to Alexander Byron's room.

Edmund Johnson was getting out of the car when he saw Madelyn go out. He stepped forward. "Hello, Mrs. Byron!"

Madelyn looked up at the handsome man in front of her and asked, "And you are?"

"We've met before. When you came to see Alexander." Edmund Johnson smiled faintly.

Madelyn immediately remembered when he said that. There was a relieved smile on her face, "So you're Alexander's personal doctor, Edmund Johnson!"

"I'm glad you remember me." Edmund Johnson looked at Madelyn's faint smile, and the tone of his voice has become relaxed.

Seeing him looking at her, Madelyn could not help looking up at him.

Edmund Johnson was standing in the sun. He had a fair face and pink lips, sharp features, a straight nose, thick eyebrows, and clear eyes. His messy hair added a touch of Bohemia to his sunny good looks.

"You're going to see Alexander, right? Let's go together then." Edmund Johnson looked at her and smiled.

Madelyn found it easy to talk to Edmund Johnson without having to put her nerves on edge. So the two of them talked more and more tacit understanding.

Edmund Johnson turned his head slightly to see Madelyn's profile. She had a fair face, straight nose, delicate red lips and facial features, just like a white lotus in the snow mountains of the North, pure and innocent.

"I heard you're studying acting?" Edmund Johnson asked casually.

"Yes, I am a sophomore now, and I will have an internship in a film and television company in half a year."

Madelyn was talking to Edmund Johnson, and she found herself in Alexander Byron's room. Madelyn put on sterile gowns, standing outside the room looking at the man lying there quietly.

Aseptic ward was also called one-way ward. It was not a single ward or several wards, but a "clean care unit" with a special room as the core and other necessary auxiliary rooms. It was used to treat patients who require treatment in a highly sterile environment. For example, people with autism, leukemia patients who underwent an allogeneic bone marrow transplant, cancer patients who required intensive chemotherapy, Patients with extensive and severe burns, Patients with severe respiratory diseases and liver transplant patients.

Edmund Johnson was standing behind Madelyn, and his warm voice rang out behind her, "You don't have to worry too much. Alexander will wake up."

Madelyn knew Edmund Johnson was trying to comfort her, but she was still grateful. She was also glad Alexander Byron had such a good friend.

…

Madelyn had just returned from Alexander Byron's room when she saw Marian coming back from work. She stepped forward and called, "Mom!"

Marian walked lightly over to Madelyn, "There will be a party tonight. Please come with me and I will introduce some business friends to you."

"Okay!"

Marian looks at what Madelyn was wearing, then pulled a VIP card from her bag and handed it to her. "The party doesn't start until 8:00 p. m., and I have a meeting at the office this afternoon. I'll be there later. I'll have the driver take you there first. With that, Marian turned and walked inside.

Madelyn looked at Marian's back as she left, then at the card in her hand. Was she afraid she would embarrass her or The Byron family?

Madelyn looked at her card with a wry smile on her lips.

A luxurious black Rolls Royce rolled into a busy street and stopped at an image shop. The driver called respectfully, "The Young Mrs. Byron, here we are. I'll pick you up later."

Madelyn had just got out of the car when a fashionably dressed woman came forward and introduced herself respectfully, "Miss Davis, I am Page, the designer responsible for receiving you today. Mrs. Byron just called and we're gonna make sure you're the star of the night."

"Okay." Madelyn followed Page in an elevator to a suite, which was fully equipped with beauty facilities. This must be the so-called one-stop service.

Madelyn didn't think it would take long. Unexpectedly, after this process, her whole body almost fell apart. When she had been in the theatre, it seemed to her that they had been putting on their make-up for a long time. But now that was nothing compared to this.

"Miss Davis, this way, please!" Page took Madelyn to the dressing room. Madelyn looked at the dress in front of her and shook her head. These clothes were too sexy.

"Miss Davis, don't you like it?" Page looked at Madelyn doubtfully. Most of the girls who came here said that the dresses were not sexy enough.

Madelyn looked at Page sheepishly. These clothes were beautiful, but they were not her style.

Page was also in a dilemma. These dresses were the best in their store, and were designed by famous designers. A lot of them were unique. And now Madelyn said she didn't like it. Where was she going to get her a dress?"

Just as Page did not know what to do, a waiter came up to Page with a package, "This is a delivery for Miss Davis."

"Miss Davis, this is a delivery for you." Page handed the package to Madelyn.

"For me?" Confused, Madelyn took Page's package and opened it on the table.

Madelyn opened the package and saw a dress. Page picked up the dress and unfolded it to Madelyn. It was a strapless white dress with a large bow on the right breast and bits and pieces of diamonds on the bottom of the skirt.

"Miss Davis, please try it on first. If there is anything wrong, we can correct it for you as soon as possible." Page now thought the dress was sent to save her from losing her job.

Madelyn got dressed and went to the mirror. She looked at herself in the mirror and the dress looked as if it had been made for her, concealing her delicate figure but still graceful.

When Madelyn came out in this dress, Page froze, too. "Miss Davis, you look beautiful. You look like a fairy in this dress." Page exclaimed.

Madelyn smiled faintly at Page and said, "Thank you."

"The Young Mrs. Byron, the party is about to begin, and madame has asked me to drive you there directly." Said the driver respectfully.

"All right."

…

Night fell and the lights came on. The trees on both sides of the lively street are covered with colorful lights. From a distance, it looked like a beautiful Milky Way.

International Hotel in Cornshire.

This was a party held by The Flower Family to celebrate the return of Joseph Flower, the only heir of their family. The Flower family also specially invited influential figures in the business community, so today's party was quite spectacular.

"Here we are." The driver respectfully opened the door for Madelyn.

The door opened slowly, revealing two long, beautiful legs.

Madelyn got out of the car and looked at the magnificent hotel. Then she strode gracefully down the hall with a faint smile on her face.

"Miss Davis, Mrs. Byron is in the foyer next to the hall. Please follow me." The hotel attendant said respectfully and politely.

Madelyn nodded politely to the attendant and followed her to the lobby lounge.

The hotel lobby was sumptuously decorated, with golden crystal lamps shining faintly in the light.

"Mom!" Madelyn comes to Marian's side. Marian was wearing a low-cut beige evening dress tonight, elegant and classy, showing her status in every way.

Marian looked at Madelyn's outfit for the evening and nodded with satisfaction. "Let's go! It's time we went in."

When Madelyn was at home, she rarely went to parties like this. Mainly because she was still in school at that time, and Laurie always used all kinds of excuses to block her, and she didn't like it, either, so Andrew Davis never forced her.

Madelyn followed Marian into the elevator, which stopped on the 18th floor.

…

The elevator doors slowly opened and Madelyn followed Marian out of the elevator toward the meeting.

"Welcome!" The waiter opened the door for her respectfully.

The sound of the violin was melodious, sometimes like a clear bird singing, sometimes like a beautiful song, and sometimes like the mountain stream of water in the forest, which made people relaxed and happy.

"Marian, welcome to Joseph's homecoming party." Lester Flower, president of The Flower Group, says hello with a big smile on his face.

The Flower Group and The Byron family had always been close. Alexander Byron and Joseph Flower had been friends since childhood, so their relationship was even stronger.

"Long time no see, Mr. Flower!" Marian greeted him with a graceful smile.

"This is Alexander's wife Madelyn, right?" Lester Flower looked at Madelyn and asked Marian.

"Madelyn, this is Mr. Flower from The Flower Group." Marian introduced, smiling.

"Nice to meet you!" Madelyn said politely, a little nervous.

This graceful and smiling Mr. Flower spoke with perfect refinement and cultivation.

Even though he was middle-aged, he still drew the eyes of the women present.

"Marian, excuse me for a second." With that, Lester Went to greet the other guests.

"Okay!"

Marian walked Madelyn toward the center of the meeting. The whole venue was particularly lively and there here were various kinds of snacks on both sides of the venue.

Marian took two glasses of wine from the waiter and handed one to Madelyn. She pointed to a noblewoman in a purple dress in front of Madelyn said, "That's Mrs. Jones from The Jones Group, and she's with her daughter."

Marian introduced the famous women at the party one by one to Madelyn. On the surface, she was exchanging cordial greetings with the gentlemen and their wives. In fact, Madelyn knew they were only saying hello to her because of the power of The Byron family.

Looking at the various men and women in the room, Madelyn said something to Marian and sat down in a quiet corner.

"Hey, look, isn't that Madelyn? It's funny to hear that she doesn't have a groom on her wedding day!" Said a coquettish woman to the person next to her.

Another ordinary looking woman sneerer, "I'm sure she married for The Byron family's fortune. I hate to see her miserable face."

"But I heard that Mrs. Byron wanted her to marry into their family so she could carry on The family line." Said a petite girl with a puzzled look.

"So maybe she has some secret weapon to get a person who was lying in a hospital bed to have sex with her!"

Madelyn felt very angry when she heard what they were saying. But her good breeding told her not to quarrel with these people. Therefore, for these people who loved to say bad things about other people, Madelyn thought it was better for her to stay away from them.

In the corner of the assembly hall, a pair of deep eyes had been staying on her lonely figure.

Madelyn was about to get up when a magnetic sound came.

"Hello, Miss Davis! " Joseph Flower had a faint smile on his cool face and his sexy lips were a deadly lure.
