Roxanne and Madilyn were seated in the courtyard of the mansion gifted by the former to the latter, chatting casually on a clear night. Lorraine had already gone to bed, and Madilyn finally felt relieved. She looked as though she had finally found peace after surviving a catastrophe.
“Roxanne, to be honest, I’ve been avoiding it all along. I don’t want to get involved in relationships. I appear nonchalant and bold to give myself courage,” Madilyn said truthfully, revealing her innermost fears.
After all, with her family background, she had to endure countless rumors and gossip from a young age. She had slowly learned to become strong and optimistic.
“Madilyn, you and your mother did nothing wrong, so you don’t need to be afraid,” Roxanne comforted her friend. Madilyn smiled slightly.
She was deeply grateful to Roxanne for saving her mother, as only a doctor could understand the dangers involved. Even a renowned doctor in Chanaea might not have dared to do what she had done.
“What about Coralie? You said that she’s quite proactive. How do you even feel about Jonathan?” Roxanne probed.
Unexpectedly, Jonathan, who was usually clueless, had suddenly become popular. recently. Coralie might have found a way to get along with him, as she seemed to have won his heart completely.
Roxanne was a little worried, as she could tell that her best friend’s feelings for Jonathan had grown beyond a budding stage.
Madilyn shook her head. “I’m not really sure, but I can sense that he enjoys being around Coralie, so I might not have a chance. But it’s also nice to be his friend. He’s always been kind to his friends!”
Seeing the expression on her friend’s face, Roxanne immediately retorted, “Madilyn, your can’t give up so easily! After all these years, you finally met someone you really like. How can you give up just like that? Besides, Jonathan and Coralie haven’t officially announced they are together, right?”
Madilyn’s heart remained calm as she listened. to Roxanne’s words. She had truly managed to regain her composure. Madilyn gave a faint smile and said, “Right now, all I want is to focus on treating Jonathan’s gastric.”
Maybe Jonathan’s depression will gradually improve because of Coralle. After all, her positive attitude is infectious. Perhaps that woman is the right person for him.
“Well, that’s true. The last check-up showed that his gastric had improved quite a bit. Can’t that blockhead feel your sincerity?”
“Let’s not talk about this anymore. Matters of the heart cannot be forced. Didn’t you do the same thing in the past? Don’t worry about me. Let’s talk about something else. Your new company is really successful. Send me two sets of your products one day. I’m afraid I’m getting old and worn out,” Madilyn said, trying to change the subject.
“Haha, you’re just making up words to describe yourself. You’re only twenty-seven years old. How can you be old and worn out? Okay, I’ll reserve two sets for you,” Roxanne replied merrily.
As the two of them chatted leisurely, Madilyn slowly began to act like her former self. Before leaving, Roxanne left a prescription for Lorraine which had a miraculous effect on blood production.
“Roxanne, I really admire your medical skills. If one day I don’t know what to do, I want to learn from you and become your apprentice!” Madilyn said with a smile, then watched Roxanne leave when Lucian arrived to pick her up in his car.
