Chapter 125 Daring To Make A Demand

At that moment, there was a knock on the office door.

Wesley walked in with a document in hand, speaking without looking. “Sebastian, we can now proceed with the case we discussed at the combat training center last time. Now that they had time to deliberate on it, the other party has fully agreed to our plan and decided to entrust us with full authority. Also, tomorrow afternoon, there’s a business acquisition project meeting with Tyga Group. It’s about the final contract for the funding. However, it’s optional for you. Also…”

Before he finished his sentence, Wesley found it odd.

Despite all that I have said, why is there no reaction from Sebastian?

And so, he lifted his gaze to Sebastian, only then realizing that the latter’s expression was stern, his face ominously dark.

“Sebastian, what’s wrong?” Wesley asked, puzzled.

Sebastian remained silent, his grip on the cell phone so tight that his veins bulged.

Upon seeing it, Wesley stepped forward and took the cell phone from his hand.

After taking a glance, his expression changed instantly.

“Sebastian, what did I tell you? I warned you before, didn’t I? This girl is restless by nature. She just can’t learn to stay obediently by your side! To be honest, I knew from the start when she began to show interest in you. It was all an act. Old habits die hard, how could she possibly change overnight? Sebastian, why are you doing this to yourself?”

As the conversation went on, Wesley even began to feel a sense of frustration.

He truly couldn’t understand what was so special about Madelyn that made Sebastian so infatuated with her.

After hearing Wesley’s long rant, Sebastian didn’t utter a single word.

Suddenly, he retrieved his phone, swiftly grabbed the car keys from the table, and strode out.

Wesley immediately followed him. “Sebastian, where are you off to? You’re not going to see Madelyn, are you? Good heavens, since she’s been seeing someone else behind your back, you shouldn’t go after her."

However, as if he hadn’t heard a thing, Sebastian continued to walk away with a stern face.

Wesley was at his wit’s end. After heaving a sigh, he suddenly quickened his pace to catch up. He was curious to see what kind of trouble Madelyn was about to stir up again.

Meanwhile, Madelyn had already rushed over.

Even though the southern suburbs were known to be a dodgy area, she wasn’t the least bit afraid.

However, showing up at such a place in casual attire didn’t seem quite appropriate.

She had instead put on black studs and a pair of ripped jeans. She tied her hair up high, drew a darker eyeshadow, and thickened her eyeliner.

After such a makeover, her aura had transformed as well.

She appeared somewhat like a hooligan, her eyes and brows radiating an undeniable aura of dominance.

Before long, Madelyn had arrived at the southern suburbs.

Although the place was chaotic, most people knew each other there.

After a casual inquiry, she learned that Jillian had been taken to a race course.

Thinking about the race course, Madelyn let out a cold chuckle, raising an eyebrow. So, Janessa, are you trying to kill me?

However, Madelyn was not afraid at all. She went straight to the race course.

Upon entering, she could immediately see the vast area filled with a countless number of luxury cars. Moreover, a crowd of men and women had gathered there.

Among them were thrill–seeking scions of wealthy families. They held beautiful women in their arms, occasionally flirting with each other.

Of course, there were also quite a few gangsters, who were dressed in a strange and flamboyant manner. The entire race course was like a melting pot, filled with all sorts of people.

Just as Madelyn was about to enter, a group of men, dressed like hooligans, sauntered out nonchalantly. “Hey, who’s this little beauty?” The leader of the gang, upon seeing her, suddenly remarked with a cheeky grin.

Madelyn remembered that in her past life, everyone on the streets used to refer to this man as Andy.

However, Madelyn rolled her eyes slightly. Too lazy to waste her breath on him, she asked directly, “Where is Jillian?”

“Jillian…” Andy pondered for a moment.

Suddenly, with a grin, he said, “Oh, you’re referring to the young lady who came in the afternoon, right? She’s quite attractive. But compared to you…”

“Enough with the chatter!” Madelyn interrupted, “Just release her now!”

Andy paused for a moment. In the face of Madelyn’s fiery temper, he chuckled instead, not at all upset by it.

He couldn’t resist but tease her, “Babe, you’ve got quite the nerve, daring to come here all by yourself to demand someone from me."

Madelyn couldn't be bothered with small talk, she asked with an air of dominance, “I’m here for her. Are you going to give her to me or not?”

Andy burst out laughing upon hearing her words.

"Such a fiery temper, huh? Well, considering your stunning looks, I could make an exception for you. But you must understand, this is a race course, and we have our own rules here. I can’t just hand over the person you’re looking for, unless… you play by our rules.”

Toward the end of his sentence, Andy suddenly shifted from his playful demeanor, becoming serious.

Madelyn was well aware of the rules there. After all, in her previous life, she was a regular.

And so, she nodded, her face expressionless as she said, “Enough talk. Bring her here first. I want to see that she’s safe and sound. After that, I’ll do whatever needs to be done according to the rules. Any other issues?”

Her tone was decisive and straightforward.

Upon hearing these words, Andy couldn’t help but clap his hands, exclaiming, “Excellent! That’s the spirit!”

Following that, he issued an order to his subordinates, “You two, bring that Jil–whatever girl over here.”

“Understood.”

In no time at all, they had brought Jillian over.

When she arrived, her face was still marked with a few vivid red handprints, and her hair was in complete disarray. It was clear that she had been hit.

Upon seeing Jillian’s state, Madelyn immediately approached with concern. “Jillian! Are you alright?”

“Madelyn? What are you doing here?” Jillian clearly hadn’t expected to see Madelyn there of all places.

“Don’t worry. I’m here to save you,” Madelyn said, her gaze unwavering.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing these words, Jillian vehemently shook her head. “No, Madelyn, don’t save me. You need to leave immediately! This place is too dangerous. Don’t worry about me, just go!”

The place was shrouded in chaos, filled with people who thrived on disorder, and Jillian genuinely didn’t want to drag Madelyn into her mess.

However, Madelyn simply chuckled. “It’s precisely because it’s too dangerous here that I can’t leave you behind.”

No sooner had the words been spoken than a surge of tears welled up in Jillian’s eyes. A huge teardrop then trickled down her cheek.

Madelyn reached out and gently wiped Jillian’s tears away. “Jillian, don’t be scared. Stay right here and wait for me. I promise I will take you home!”

After speaking, a confident and composed smile bloomed at the corner of Madelyn’s lips.

With that, she exuded an unprecedented aura of dominance.
