Chapter 160 Do You Want To Die

Lydia had prepared a variety of dishes. They looked delicious, with their delicious aroma wafting through the air from afar.

However, Madelyn was so worried that she had no appetite.

Shaking her head in refusal, she said, “Lydia, I’m not eating. You should eat more.”

After saying that, she turned around and went back to her room. She sat on her bed.

Based on the timeline of her past life, the date of Sebastian’s trip would change.

The original plan was to set off two days later. However, it was delayed until two weeks later.

Regardless of these changes, the trip abroad was inevitable. Once he embarked on this journey, he would definitely face danger.

No way!

The more Madelyn thought about it, the more she realized that things couldn’t continue this way any longer.

Rather than sitting around waiting for doom, she decided to take action. Perhaps, she could prevent all of this from happening.

With that thought, Madelyn abruptly stood up, changed her clothes, and immediately hailed a cab to the company.

At Lockhart Group, Malcolm spotted Madelyn from a distance. He hurriedly approached her and said, “Mrs. Lockhart, Mr. Lockhart is currently in a meeting.”

When Madelyn heard that, she nodded in agreement. She was about to wait in the office.

At that moment, Malcolm suddenly started shouting from behind, “Mrs. Lockhart, no! Oh no, that’s not the way to go…”

However, it was already too late.

Madelyn pushed open the office door and stepped inside.

In an instant, it was as though the air itself had frozen.

At that time, the office was filled with nearly all of the company’s top brass, including Sebastian, Wesley, and Harriet. Everyone present wore a serious expression on their faces.

They were in a meeting.

Madelyn’s sudden entrance undoubtedly interrupted everything.

When everyone saw Madelyn, it was as if they had seen an unwelcome guest, their faces clearly showing their displeasure.

A few seconds later, Madelyn coughed twice, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

She wondered why this group had chosen to meet in the office instead of the conference room.

Upon seeing her, Sebastian was somewhat taken aback. However, his tone remained casual. “What brings you here?”

“I… I came to have dinner with you,” said Madelyn softly, touching her nose.

Eating again!

Upon hearing that, Wesley couldn’t help but look at Madelyn with an expression of distaste, as if he were looking at a glutton.

This girl spends all her time doing nothing but asking Sebastian to eat with her. Even though she eats so much, she doesn’t seem to get fat.

However, Malcolm felt that this was a good thing.

Ever since Madelyn changed, Sebastian’s mealtimes had become much more reasonable.

After all, he was a typical workaholic.

Every time he immersed himself in work, he was like a machine fueled by pure adrenaline, tirelessly laboring from dawn till dusk. He seemed impervious to exhaustion.

For this very reason, Sebastian often skipped meals or made do with whatever food was readily available. Over time, this led to the development of stomach problems. Frequent bouts of stomach pain became a common occurrence.

However, ever since Madelyn began insisting on having meals with him daily, Sebastian’s eating habits improved a great deal. His stomach aches became much less frequent.

At that moment, Sebastian glanced at his watch and checked the time. He then turned to Madelyn and said, “We still have to continue the meeting. If you don’t mind, you could wait for me over here for a bit.”

Madelyn didn’t mind. She nodded and quietly sat at the side.

Then, the meeting went on.

Madelyn was utterly bored, so she found herself intently watching Sebastian.

She couldn’t help but marvel at how perfect he was.

With his physique, facial features, and elegant aura, he seemed like a marvelous creation of God – so that one could not find a single flaw.

Yet, she had been so blind in her past life. She had such a handsome man right by her side, but she failed to see it. Instead, she chased after Christopher.

Every time Madelyn thought about that, she wished she could smack her past self with a brick.

In a blink of an eye, two hours had passed.

Dinner time had long passed and Madelyn’s bum had gone numb from sitting. Yet, it seemed like they had absolutely no intention of ending the meeting.

In the end, Madelyn could simply bear it no longer. She abruptly rose to her feet.

All eyes were instantly drawn to her.

Under everyone’s watchful gazes, Madelyn boldly strode out of the office.

Sebastian couldn’t help but furrow his brows as he observed her behavior. Was she so tired of waiting that she got angry?

A cold smirk formed on Harriet’s lips. Ms. Thornton is as impatient as ever.

Yet, half an hour later, the office door was once again pushed open.

It was still Madelyn.

This time, she had an extra lunchbox in her hand, seemingly fresh from a food run.

Following that, she casually dragged a chair over and walked straight up to Sebastian. Without hesitation, she sat right down next to him.

She immediately opened the lunch box. In an instant, the entire office was filled with a fragrant aroma.

After Madelyn prepared everything, she picked up the spoon and directly scooped a spoonful to feed Sebastian.

At that moment, everyone was astounded.

They had never witnessed such a scene before.

Sebastian hadn’t expected Madelyn to act so directly, so he hesitated a bit. “I’m not hungry yet. You go ahead and eat.”

Madelyn glared at him, suddenly rebuking loudly, “All you know is work, work, work! Don’t you care about your health? You don’t even eat your meals! Do you want to die?”

Sebastian was left speechless, stunned by the sudden outburst.

Madelyn brought the spoon to his lips again. “Go ahead and eat. After all, they are the ones doing all the talking at the meeting. You’re barely making a sound, only occasionally agreeing with something. It won’t affect anything.”

Having said that, she looked at everyone. “I know you all strive to excel at your work, but what’s the benefit to the company if you exhaust him? If you wear yourselves out, how efficient can you be? Is the company’s mission to have everyone work on an empty stomach?”

Once she said that, everyone surprisingly fell silent.

As Harriet listened, her expression changed. After all, she was the one who had proposed this meeting.

Quickly standing up, she apologized, “I’m sorry everyone, I overlooked this issue. I’m truly sorry.”

Sebastian couldn’t win her, so he reluctantly opened his mouth and swallowed the mouthful of rice.

Then, Madelyn scooped another spoonful of soup and brought it to his lips. “You’ve been talking for quite a while, so your throat must be dry. Have some soup.”

Although Sebastian remained silent, he opened his mouth and quietly drank it.
