Chapter 110 A Potent Poison

“Sebastian, what on earth is going on?” Wesley could not wrap his head around it and could only turn to Sebastian for answers. He couldn’t believe that Madelyn was actually planning to teach them a lesson.

Sebastian frowned, clearly unable to comprehend it as well. However, since Madelyn had acted in such a way, he reckoned she must have had her own reasons.

Sebastian rose to his feet, his voice deep as he said, “Let’s go.”

Wesley followed him and left.

Meanwhile, the doctor had already tended to Madelyn’s foot. Madelyn let out a pitiful scream, after which, the doctor promptly and patiently administered her medication. The doctor then went on to examine the injuries of Christopher and Janessa. Madelyn cast a glance over, then left Janessa and Christopher behind. She supported herself against the wall and departed.

As soon as she stepped out of the combat training center, she spotted a brand new black Maserati, conspicuously parked by the roadside. The sun was shining directly overhead, casting a golden glow on the glossy surface of the car roof. Why does this car seem so familiar? Madelyn hobbled her way over.

“She’s here,” Wesley, who was in the car, said.

Sebastian turned his head and couldn’t help but furrow his brows when he saw her limping. At that moment, the car window slid down.

Upon glancing over, Madelyn spotted Sebastian and was suddenly filled with joy. “Sebastian, what are you doing here?” No wonder the car looks familiar. It’s Sebastian’s.

The rear car window also rolled down. When Wesley saw Madelyn, he flashed a radiant smile. “Hello, Goddess Madelyn. It’s been a while!”

Madelyn was surprised. “Why are you here too?”

Sebastian responded in a chilly tone, “We just happened to be passing by.”

“Oh, all right, then.” Madelyn nodded. Well, if he says so…

“Get in the car,” Sebastian said nonchalantly.

Following that, the car door swung open, and Madelyn promptly settled herself in. After she got into the car, Wesley couldn’t suppress his curiosity and fixed his gaze on her. “Hey, Madelyn, what kind of game are you playing now?”

Madelyn was utterly baffled. “What did you say?”

“Give it a rest, will you? Stop pretending. Isn’t the injury on your foot obvious enough? You’ve definitely been up to something shady again, haven’t you?”

Madelyn couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger. “Wesley, what nonsense are you spouting with that worthless mouth of yours? Stay away from me!”

“Come on, can’t I just joke around?” Wesley immediately responded with a playful grin, moving closer. “So, would you tell me how you got that injury on your foot?”

Sebastian cast his gaze down at Madelyn’s foot. Upon seeing her ankle wrapped in a bandage, he couldn’t help but furrow his brows deeply. Why, this woman…

Madelyn also looked down at her own ankle, but she appeared completely nonchalant about it. “This? Oh, I just sprained it by accident. It’s nothing serious.”

“Sprained?” Wesley suddenly let out a chuckle, feigning ignorance as he asked, “Are you kidding? This place is a combat training center. Did you injure yourself when you were learning martial arts here?”

“Mm-hmm.” Madelyn saw no reason to hide anything, so she nodded.

This piqued Wesley’s curiosity even more. “I’m a bit confused. You were doing perfectly fine. Why did you decide to learn martial arts?”

“To stay healthy, of course,” Madelyn said with a laugh. After she finished speaking, she thought for a moment then playfully added, “And to beat up the bad guys.”

Wesley was momentarily at a loss for words. This response was truly baffling, probably only something Madelyn could say. However, Wesley didn’t offer any rebuttal. Instead, he racked his brain, wondering how on earth he could get her to reveal her earlier performance at the combat training center.

Before he could even think of anything, Sebastian sternly said, “To the hospital.”

Upon hearing about going to the hospital, Madelyn quickly waved her hand. “It’s okay, Sebastian. I’m fine. A doctor at the combat training center already checked on me earlier.”

Sebastian didn’t bother to respond. He just coldly said, “Hospital.”

Hearing this, the driver nodded and then proceeded to drive toward the hospital.

In less than ten minutes, Madelyn was rushed to an orthopedic hospital. Sebastian sought out the best traditional medicine practitioner in orthopedics to examine Madelyn’s injuries. This renowned traditional medicine practitioner was exceptionally skilled in the art of massage therapy. Countless individuals sought out the hospital, specifically requesting him, yet very few were able to secure an appointment. Yet now, Sebastian had sought him out specifically to examine Madelyn’s foot.

Wesley, standing to the side, couldn’t help but marvel at everything Sebastian was doing. Unable to resist, he stepped forward and said, “Come out, I have something to tell you.”

Sebastian cast a glance at Madelyn before he left.

Outside in the corridor, after Wesley had pulled Sebastian over, he tutted a few times. “Sebastian, do you realize how much of a charmer you are? If I were a woman, I’d fall in love with you after being cared for like that.”

Sebastian showed a hint of impatience as he said, “Just get to the point.”

Wesley cleared his throat and asked, “But seriously, have you actually fallen for Madelyn? If I recall correctly, Sebastian, your initial intention of getting close to her wasn’t for this, was it…” Wesley gently offered a reminder.

Sebastian snapped, “Shut up!”

Wesley was startled by his shout. He patted his chest and said somewhat resentfully, “Sebastian, don’t get worked up. I’m saying this for your own good. As your friend, I have to warn you! You’d better stay clear-headed and keep your distance from Madelyn. Based on my years of understanding women, that woman is like a potent poison. Once you’re hooked, it’s extremely hard to extricate yourself Sebastian, heed my advice. Don’t get too attached to her. You might end up in a situation where you can’t extricate yourself.”

Sebastian remained expressionless and fell silent.

At that moment, Madelyn emerged. “Sebastian, the traditional medicine practitioner you found for me is really good. After his treatment, I immediately feel less pain. Even the swelling has gone down,” she exclaimed with a sweet smile.

Sebastian’s mood seemed to brighten a bit as well as he took in her smile. He said softly, “I’m glad it doesn’t hurt anymore. Let’s go home.”

Madelyn nodded happily.

Sebastian, supporting Madelyn, strode away.

Wesley watched from behind, not making an effort to catch up, and just let out a deep sigh.
