Chapter 1023
Kal questioned, “Did you call me here to keep her safe?”
Zach replied tersely, “Keep Yvonne’s survival a secret from Madelyn. I fear Madelyn might impulsively try
to go after Ethan.”
Kal, setting down the tablet, scoffed, “Afraid of Yvonne now? Worried shell harm Madelyn?”
Kal pressed on before Zach could counter. “A wounded woman is dangerous, Zach. This is your mes Madelyn
shouldn’t be dragged into it. And remember, Cecilia is a far greater threat than Yvonne. You can’t
control Cecilia like you did Yvonne. She’s the real danger here.”
In Kal’s mind, Cecilia’s ambitions were alarmingly formidable, posing a severe risk to a vulnerable Zach.
Kai was still haunted by the memory of Alicia’s sacrifice for Madelyn, He had made an unbreakable vow
to protect Madelyn at all costs, and it was a promise he was determined to fulfill.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter Zach departed for work, Kal went to check on Madelyn in her room. Once Margaret had brought her water
and medicine, leaving them alone, Madelyn queried, “What did Zach tell you?”
“He asked me to look after you,” Kai answered, his voice steady.
Madelyn, her eyes serious, reminded him, “Don’t forget your promise to me.”
Kai hesitated but eventually divulged, “The figure you saw last night was Yvonne. She’s alive.”
Madelyn, shocked, sat up. “Yvonne’s alive? Then what about Ethan?”
Kai observed the deep concern in Madelyn’s eyes, reminiscent of Alicia’s worry for Erick in the past. He silently
prayed that Madelyn would not suffer Alicia’s fate, losing her heart to a man and dying of
heartache.
In Kai’s opinion, Zach was not the man Madelyn should trust her life with. If possible, he would rather have her with
Ethan than Zach.
Softly, Kai advised, “Ethan’s remains weren’t found. He might be alive. But keep this from Yvonne. Her fixation on
Zach could make her target you.
“Zach wants this hidden from you. If trouble arises, let Zach handle it. Don’t get involved, especially if you’re
planning to leave. Focus on yourself, not on the Young family or the Amold family. Think about what matters to you
most.”
With those words, Kai excused himself to rest in the adjacent guest room.

delyn thought to herself, ‘If Yvonne survived, then Ethan… He must be alive. No news might be good.

As Madelyn closed her eyes, Yvonne’s scarred face haunted her. She imagined the unbearable pain of being
burned, the torment Yvonne must have suffered.
Meanwhile, at the Young residence, amidst the medical team’s hustle, Zach came uninvited. Frida, anticipating
Zach’s visit, was resolute.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFrida thought, “Meeting Zach now would only make Yvonne more upset. Her scarred face has already hurt
her a lot.
“Tell him to leave. He’s not welcome here,” Frida instructed firmly.
The servant hesitated. “Ms. Young, he’s already here.”
Frida, firm in her decision, commanded, “Secure this floor. No one gets in.”
Yvonne feared people seeing her like this.” Frida thought to herself.
Frida came downstairs and stood at the bottom of the staircase. She saw a group of bodyguards and
Zach in the living room. She demanded, “Leave! You’re not welcome here, you heartless bastard!”
Zach, his demeanor cold, signaled his men, who began destroying the living room’s decor.
Frida, outraged, yelled, “Stop! What are you thinking? You’ll regret this!”
Zach, smoking a cigarette, looked more like a gang leader than a businessman. “Why would I regret it? 1 was a
thug before I founded Jardin Corporation. You overestimate me, Ms. Young.”

He exhaled the smoke and added ominously, “I’m here for my wife. Cross me again, and luck won’t be on your
side. Remember, you have a whole life ahead of you to live. Don’t risk it.“
