The man was face-down on the ground. There was a valuable watch on his wrist.
Madison realized the man wasn’t trying to scam her.
Crouching down, she noticed the man had fainted. She saw no blood on the man, but his face was pale.
Luckily, the hospital was nearby. Madison brought the man to the hospital with the help of some passersby.
A nurse waved at Madison, saying, “You’re the patient’s family member, right? You need to come pay the fees.”
Madison tried to explain, “I’m not his family member. I’m just …’
The nurse looked at her inm The sudden appearance of the man messed up her plans. She couldn’t leave him alone. Then, the emergency room’s doctor verified that the man’s life wasn’t at risk and that he would regain consciousness soon.
It was only then Madison left the hospital in a hurry.
The man regained consciousness and was told he was brought to the hospital by a kind person. He wanted to thank the person right away.
“Unfortunately, the lady left after she paid for your bills.”
“How long has it been since she left?”
“She just left.”
The man jumped out of bed and chased after Madison.
He ignored the nurse shouting behind him, “You can’t leave yet. You still need to be checked.”
He didn’t listen to the nurse and quickened his steps.
He saw a slender figure by the road. Madison got into a cab before he could call out to her.
She rode the cab to the cemetery and bought some of her grandmother’s favorite flowers when she passed the flower shop.
She went to her grandmother’s grave first. She set the flowers down and talked for a bit. She would never step foot near Leia’s grave if something like that hadn’t happened.
The sky had cleared up. There were fallen leaves and branches everywhere, proof of last night’s storm.
Upon arriving at Leia’s grave, Madison stared at her picture. She had a different feeling from the last time she came. She had thought Leia was unfortunate for dying at such a young age.
Crouching down, Madison covered the face on the picture, leaving only the eyes visible.
She was sure the eyes looked exactly like those she saw on the woman who wanted to kill her.
But this was just her guess. There was only one way to get real evidence.
She looked at the grave behind the gravestone.
She needed to open up the coffin for some bones. She wondered if Hunter would allow her to dig up the body of his beloved sister.
Madison was unsure.
The room was quite dark. In order to let him sleep peacefully, the blackout curtains were tightly drawn. Madison gently opened a small gap to allow a faint light into the room.
She walked cautiously toward the bedside. If it were in the past, Hunter would probably have woken up due to his usual vigilance. But now, his eyes were tightly closed, and an empty IV bag was next to him.
Madison reached out and felt his forehead. It was burning hot. The fever hadn’t subsided yet. Hunter’s physical condition had always been excellent. He rarely got sick like this.
It seemed like she would have to wait till later to talk to him about Leia.
She was about to withdraw her hand, but her wrist was grabbed.
Hunter pulled hard, and she fell into his arms. She wanted to push him away with a frown, but she heard him say hoarsely, “Don’t leave.”
Sighing, she remained still. She stayed in his embrace, Hunter was happy, and his arms tightened around her.
The scorching heat from his body enveloped Madison from all sides. It made her feel uncomfortable. They hadn’t been in such an intimate position for a long time. Even if he was her ex-lover, it made her feel uneasy.
“You need to loosen your grip. I can hardly breathe,” Madison softly protested.
Hunter wasn’t fully conscious. He didn’t hear what she said and tightened his embrace further.
He murmured, “Madie, I was wrong. I really am sorry. Please don’t leave me.”
Madison had never seen Hunter this way-not even when they were together. Hunter was an arrogant man. He would never admit that he was wrong.
But he was like a helpless little boy now, muttering words like “I was wrong” and “Don’t leave me”.
Madison wanted to say something but suddenly felt his fingers creeping into her clothes.
“What are you doing?”
Hunter rolled over on top of her. He was wearing green pajamas. A few buttons were loose, revealing large parts of his skin.
Madison could see the injury on his chest. It was more severe than she had imagined, The wound had healed, but it left a sprawling scar on his chest. She swallowed the words she had planned to yell and touched the scar.
She was sure he would’ve killed himself if she hadn’t cut herself loose.
She wanted to say he was rotten to the core. But when she jumped off the building, he followed without hesitation. He was willing to trade his life for hers when she was kidnapped.
But he wasn’t exactly good either. All the pain Madison had suffered so far was inflicted by him.
Madison didn’t even know how to describe the relationship between them.
Her cool fingers touched the scar, causing Hunter’s body to heat up even more.
“Does it hurt?”
Hunter said in an upset tone, “It hurts, but it hurts more when I think about you Madison looked him in the eye and saw that the corners of his eyes were red. His skin was pale, so the flush stood out more.
She noticed the messy hair covering his forehead. Some strands were curled up. He no longer looked like the domineering man who always looked at her condescendingly.
He was like a kid who had been bullied Madison had only seen him like this once, the time when he was drunk. He rarely displayed such innocence. She couldn’t stand seeing him like this, so she looked away “Get off of me. I have something to tell you”
“I don’t want to.” Hunter was like a rebellious kid. He had an obstinate expression on his face.
He reached out and grabbed her chin to turn her face toward him. Before Madison could react, he already kissing her domineeringly Madison was stunned. Even when they were back on the cruise ship, Hunter hadn’t kissed her so deeply. Just as she realized something was wrong, she was already trapped and couldn’t break free.
Hunter’s limbs were wrapped around her like thick vines, giving her no time to catch her breath. Hunter might have held back when he was conscious due to his guilt. Now that he was not in his right mind, he was acting on instinct.
Madison tried to struggle but to no avail.
Hunter felt grounded when he could smell her scent.
“Wake up, Hunter. Do you have any idea what you’re doing?”
Hunter held her hands above her head, effortlessly defusing her attacks. There was a lot of sweat on his forehead. He said hoarsely, “Madie, I’ve never been so sure of what I’m doing. I told you, we’ll have kids of our own.”
Kids …
Oliva didn’t understand why Hunter was so hung up on the subject. She just wanted to get away.
“Let me go, Hunter. Don’t make me hate you.”
“If hate can become the bond that binds us, then hate me all you want.”
There was only a sliver of light shining into the room. It illuminated the area around Hunter’s is face was hidden in the dark, like a rose blooming in the shadows-seductive but Hunter fell back to sleep with a high fever. Madison gritted her teeth as she headed to the bathroom to wash up. She even went back and cleaned Hunter up.
She didn’t want to be entangled with Hunter anymore. Since he thought it was a dream, she was prepared to let him keep thinking that.
She acted as if nothing happened and exited the room.
“He’s still feverish and hasn’t woken up yet. The doctor has already given him medication. I really hope he gets better soon.”
Kelvin said, “Mrs. Williams, you might not know this, but Mr. Williams hasn’t rested well in a long time. Especially the few days following your kidnapping. He searched for you without resting. He really cares about you.”
Madison didn’t want to discuss that with Kelvin, so she changed the subject. “Let him sleep a little bit more and see if the fever goes down. He’s in good shape. It’s probably no big deal.”
Kelvin was at a loss for words. Madison had completely ignored what he said. Kelvin understood that Madison didn’t want to associate herself with Hunter too much, so he gave up on the topic.
Raising his head to look at Madison, he said, “Mrs. Williams, your face looks red. Do you also have a fever? Do you need me to get the doctor for you?”
“I’m fine. I just showered in the bathroom just now. My skin’s just flushed from the hot water. Since he’s not going to be awake for a while and I didn’t sleep well last night, I’ll sleep in the other bedroom. Let me know when he wakes up.”
Madison spoke very naturally, so Kelvin didn’t suspect anything was wrong.
“Alright, please use the bedroom as you please. This is your home too. There’s nothing wrong even if you sleep on the same bed as Mr. Williams.”
Madison thought about something and said coldly while suppressing her unease, “Don’t forget that we’re divorced. I wouldn’t have come here today if I didn’t need to talk to him about something.”
She then went back upstairs to the second bedroom. Shutting the curtains, she buried herself in the sheets. She was very tired, but she couldn’t fall asleep. Every time she closed her eyes, she’d remember what happened in Hunter’s room.
Madison rubbed her temples tiredly. She hoped that Hunter would only think of what happened as a dream so that he would forget about it when he woke up.
