Chapter 68 Madelyn surveyed the scattered food strewn across the floor, her brow furrowing in confusion. Thoughts raced through her mind, ‘What is he up to now?’ She cast a reproachful glance at Forrest and questioned, “Forrest, what on earth are you doing?” As she crouched down to retrieve the lunchbox from the ground, Forrest kicked it once more, causing it to slip from her grasp.

In a swift motion, Forrest seized Madelyn by the collar, hoisting her up and forcefully pinning her against the wall. His intense gaze locked with hers, his grip tightening around her collar as he angrily exclaimed, “What the hell did you say?” The jutting corner of the windowsill dug into Madelyn’s back, causing her discomfort, but her impassive stare remained fixed on Forrest. She asked, “What exactly are you trying to say?” Forrest's narrow, upturned eyes exuded a bone-chilling coldness, colder than ice itself. He seethed, “Jadie got beaten up because of your damn big mouth. She’s in the hospital now. Didn't you claim she was your sister? Is this how you treat your siblings, Madelyn Jent? You don’t have the balls to confront me directly. If you have something to say, say it to my face instead of scheming behind my back! If anything happens to Jadie, | swear I'll break the same damn bones of yours! Madelyn observed the prominent veins bulging on his hand. If it weren't for the presence of others, she believed Forrest would actually strangle her right there. She remained calm, her breathing steady. She had faced much greater storms, the immature Forrest standing before her couldn't intimidate her Besides, she had already experienced death once before, so why would she fear it a second time? Gasping for air under his grip, Madelyn grabbed onto his increasingly tightened hand. ” Forrest... calm down!” Adrian stepped in, his voice firm, “Forrest, that’s enough. Madelyn would never be foolish enough to harm Jadie. They're family.

There's no reason for her to do something like that.” Madelyn’s face flushed crimson, acutely aware of the terrifying hostility emanating from Forrest. “Fo-Forrest... It hurts... You've hurt me! Let... Let go!” Adrian interjected, “That's it, enough. Do you really want to escalate this situation? Have you forgotten what happened the last time you got injured?” The animosity in Forrest's eyes gradually subsided, though the coldness remained. Finally, he released his grip.

Madelyn clutched her neck, coughing several times as she tried to regain her breath.

“Don't think Ethan's protection makes you untouchable! | still have ways to deal with you!” Forrest spat out those words before storming out.

Madelyn felt bewildered, her mind racing, ‘Did he mention Ethan? Does Forrest know Ethan?’ She yearned to confront him and uncover the truth, but given his current state of anger, approaching him now would be akin to walking into a deadly trap.

Inhaling the fresh air deeply, Madelyn began to feel more composed. She straightened herself up and expressed her gratitude to Adrian, saying, “Thank you.” Adrian glanced at her and uttered five piercing words, “You brought this upon yourself.” Timothy chimed in, “Serves you right!” After Jadie was bullied, Forrest was the first one pointing the finger at Madelyn, holding her accountable. Madelyn couldn't shake off the thought that Zach would be next in line, ready to inflict similar harm upon her. The bone-chilling realization of what Zach could potentially do sent a wave of shivers down her spine.
