Chapter 98 She Must Be Eliminated
Madelyn was instantly filled with dread.
She didnโt expect Ruth to have no sense of shame at all! When she couldnโt openly win over Yadiel, she resorted to drugging him in secret. It was simply despicable.
Moreover, this was in an office! She wasnโt really that desperate, was she? If a passing teacher or classmate discovered this, who knew how the news would spread around the campus? Madelyn couldnโt help but shudder, feeling a bit queasy.
At that moment, Ruth suddenly closed her eyes, as if she was in a state of ecstasy. Then she leaned in, her lips slightly puckered as if she was about to kiss Yadiel.
Upon witnessing this scene, Madelyn was utterly speechless. Ruth is too disgusting. Does she actually want to take advantage of Yadiel? No way. I must not let her have her way!
At the thought of it, Madelyn could no longer hold back. She abruptly sat up from the bed and swiftly pulled back the curtains.
Ruth was about to lean in for a kiss, she paused at the sound she heard. Just as Ruthโฆ
When she looked up and saw Madelyn, she immediately turned to stone.
Madelynโs lips curved into a faint smile as she looked at her with an expression that was somewhere between a smile and a sneer.
โProfessor Pierson, what are you doing?โ
Ruth was convinced that everything was under control, but to her surprise, Madelyn showed up. Suddenly, her face was filled with panic. She hastily explained, โIโฆ I just came to have a meal with Yadiel.โ
โReally?โ Madelyn scoffed coldly. โIf you were just having a meal, was there really a need to lock the door from the inside? Also, what happened to Yadiel? He seems to be unconscious.โ
Upon hearing this, the color instantly drained from Ruthโs face.
โI closed the door because I didnโt want to be disturbed. As for Yadiel, he must have been asleep!โ Ruth insisted.
Madelyn couldnโt help but sneer, thinking to herself that Ruthโs lying skills were truly top-notch.
Ruth was initially very flustered, but upon hearing that, she immediately became alert.
โWhat do you mean?โ
Madelyn couldnโt be bothered to beat around the bush anymore, so she took out her phone from her pocket.
She waved it in front of Ruth and teased, โI captured everything you did just now. Who wouldโve thought youโre such a person, Professor Pierson?โ
Ruthโs eyes narrowed. โMadelyn!โ
Madelyn, however, remained unfazed. โFirst, you framed Jillian to protect your nephew, and now youโre drugging Yadiel. Professor Pierson, youโre quite something, arenโt you? I wonder, if Yadiel knows this is who you are, will he be disappointed?โ
After saying that, she let out a sarcastic laugh.
Never in her wildest dreams did Ruth imagine that Madelyn had recorded everything. Immediately feeling a surge of impatience, she rushed forward, demanding, โGive me the phone!โ
Madelyn didnโt give her a chance to snatch it. She promptly tucked her phone into her pocket.
She chuckled. โWhatโs the matter? Trying to destroy the evidence?โ
Ruth was on the verge of losing her cool. โMadelyn, give me your phone now!โ
Madelyn, however, flashed a playful smile and said, โIโm sorry, but no.โ
With that, she immediately turned around and swiftly opened the door. Then, she dashed out in a flash.
As soon as the door swung open, Ruth knew that this situation couldnโt possibly go on any longer. Recalling the way Madelyn looked earlier, a hint of ruthlessness suddenly flashed in her eyes.
If Yadiel found out about this matter, it would be truly over. When the time came, Yadiel would surely despise her, let alone pursuing him.
Upon reflecting on this, a wave of resentment surged in Ruthโs heart. She wished she could immediately put an end to Madelynโs life. This audacious girl! She definitely needs a good lesson!
After leaving the office, Madelyn made her way to the infirmary. She had no idea what had been done to Yadiel, but since he was unconscious, he needed to be examined.
Next, she proceeded to brief the doctor about the situation.
The doctor immediately grabbed his first-aid kit and accompanied her to take a look at Yadiel.
Finally, he exhaled and said, โHis body temperature and heartbeat are normal. It seems heโs only consumed a mild sedative. A good nightโs sleep and some rest should do the trick.โ
Upon hearing this, Madelyn felt relieved. โThank you, Doctor.โ
โYouโre welcome.โ
Once the doctor had finished speaking, he picked up his first-aid kit and left.
Following that, Madelyn stayed in the office and waited for Yadiel to wake up.
Unbeknownst to her, an afternoon had swiftly passed by.
When Yadiel woke up, it was already six in the evening. Upon waking up and seeing himself lying in bed, he was momentarily bewildered. When did I get into bed to rest?
Upon drawing back the curtains, he saw Madelyn sprawling across the table, deep in slumber.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yadiel gently nudged her and whispered, โMadelyn? Wake up.โ
Madelyn opened her eyes slightly. Upon seeing Yadiel awake, she immediately broke into a smile.
โAre you awake now?โ
Yadiel nodded, then, with a look of confusion, asked, โHow did I end up in bed?โ
Madelyn chuckled and shrugged. โYouโve been drugged.โ
โWhat?โ Yadiel was puzzled.
Next, Madelyn recounted the events of the afternoon, detailing the things that Ruth had done to Yadiel.
After hearing the whole story, Yadielโs eyes were filled with disgust. To think that Ruth had the audacity to drug him! It was truly revolting.
โIf I hadnโt been here today, you might have been taken advantage of,โ Madelyn teased.
Yadiel looked at her with gratitude and said, โThank you, Madelyn. Iโm glad youโre here.โ
Madelyn, however, didnโt seem to mind. She said with a hearty laugh, โAll right, enough with the formalities. Of course, I canโt let anyone disrespect my buddy, right?โ
Yadiel smiled, feeling comforted.
Following that, noticing that it was getting late, Madelyn said, โThe day is drawing to a close, I should get going. Yadiel, remember to rest well once you get home.โ
Even though it was already evening, days in the summer always seemed to darken later.
Madelyn pondered that recently her hand had been hurting, so she couldnโt go to the combat training center for training. She decided to walk back slowly, thinking it would also be a leg workout.
After leaving the school gate, she didnโt hail a cab but continued to stroll leisurely along the roadside.
At that moment, the main street was bustling. As dusk approached, all vehicles had already switched on their headlights.
From a distance, it looked like a long, luminous dragon, presenting quite a sight.
Lost in her thoughts, Madelyn strolled along the road slowly.
Suddenly, her vision was obscured as someone blocked her view.
A few thugs suddenly approached her flippantly, effectively blocking Madelynโs path.
