The mystery that she thought she was close to solving became shrouded in mist again. Madison sighed deeply and thought about Chloe, who was on the verge of death. She started to feel sad.
Madison opened the door and noticed that Hunter was actually home.
He was wearing an apron and holding a spatula. Looking at her, he said, “You’re back.”
Hunter noticed that Madison was not in a good mood. He turned off the stove and approached her.
Hugging her, he said, “I’ve heard about it. Don’t be sad. I’ve cooked some chicken soup just for you.”
His embrace was familiar to her. But there was the smell of oil and smoke on his body. It made him feel more human.
Madison didn’t know if she was too tired or Hunter’s embrace was too warm. But she didn’t move away and allowed him to keep hugging her.
“I bought my mom’s favorite matzo ball soup for her, but she won’t get the chance to eat it anymore.”
Patting her head, Hunter said gently, “The gesture alone would make her very happy.”
“I suspect that her worsening condition isn’t a coincidence. Someone must have caused it.”
Madison broke free from his embrace and looked at him. “It’s very likely that Andrea is the one who did it.”
Not many people could get into Chloe’s ward. Also, she had been away for so many years and had no friends in the city.
As soon as Andrea came to visit, something happened to Chloe. Also, Andrea was acting very suspiciously at the hospital.
“It’s okay. Don’t overthink it. I’ll handle it,” Hunter said as his expression remained the same.
Hunter didn’t speak, but his expression said it all. He didn’t want to discuss this subject with Madison.
“Madie, I have my considerations.” There were things that Hunter couldn’t tell Madison.
Smiling coldly, Madison said, “She indirectly killed our baby, pushed me into depression for two years, and now she’s trying to kill my mother. I’m really curious as to why you’re so lenient with her.”
If he truly loved Andrea, why would he go to such lengths to win her favor? Hunter would never have stooped to doing such things. Madison was confused.
”
“Some things are not the way you think they are. I’ll tell you everything when the time is right.
It was always about timing with Hunter. Madison didn’t know when the time would be right. She only knew that the conflicts she had been forced into had caused her family to be ruined.
“Rest here for a while. I’ll get you some soup.” Hunter hurried to the kitchen. He was intent on avoiding that subject.
He opened the pot, and the fragrant smell of the soup wafted in the kitchen. He stirred the soup gently with a wooden ladle.
Hunter’s phone vibrated, and he picked it up. It was a call from Brent.
“Mr. Williams, I’ve looked into it. Mrs. Williams did save Avery Evans before. But all she did was bring him to the emergency room. She left after paying the bill. There was no other interaction between them.”
A stormy expression appeared on Hunter’s face. He asked in an irritated tone, “What about Avery’s side of things?”
“I’m not so sure right now, but it doesn’t seem like he’s here on business. This might be a personal trip. I was also able to get my hands on his medical report.”
“What illness does he have?”
Brent said slowly, “Kidney failure.”
“Understood. Get someone to keep an eye on him.”
“Yes, sir.”
“And…”
Hunter suddenly lowered his voice and glanced at the door. He saw that Madison was heading upstairs and asked, “How’s the investigation on Toxic Hive going?”
“There haven’t been any developments yet. It seems like someone is protecting them. I haven’t been able to find anything.”
“Keep the investigation going.”
“Understood.”
Hunter hung up, thinking about the woman he grabbed that night. He was almost entirely sure that she was Leia.
He felt conflicted. The sister he missed for so many years was still alive. He should be overjoyed. However, not only did Leia join a terrorist organization and kill innocent people, but the most important thing was that she hurt the woman he loved.
Hunter didn’t know how he would feel when he faced his sister.
He was deep in thought and accidentally spilled some of the scalding hot soup on his hand. He immediately came back to his senses.
While waiting for the soup to cool down, Hunter called Kelvin. “How’s the investigation at the hospital?”
“Ms. Davis was the only one that went into Mrs. Davis’s ward other than the usual caregiver and medical staff. There aren’t any cameras in the ward, so no one knows what happened in there.”
“Did they perform any other checks? Could someone have used drugs? How else could her condition worsen so abruptly?”
“Currently, Mrs. Davis has been resuscitated and sent to the ICU for observation. A blood test was done. There are no issues.”
Hanging up, Hunter played with the ladle. His expression grew gloomier.
Toxic Hive was like its name suggested. They were insects that would infiltrate everywhere. Hunter had no idea who they had bribed to provide them protection. Even his men were unable to uncover any leads.
Toxic Hive was second to none when it came to drugs.
Hunter thought about it for a while and decided to call Andrea.
On the other end of the phone, Andrea didn’t seem surprised. Instead, she was a little distracted.
“Hi, Hunter.” Andrea sounded tired.
“We haven’t eaten together for some time Why don’t we meet up tonight?” Hunter asked In the past, Andrea would be delighted to receive an invitation from Hunter. But she was reluctant this time.
“M Ms. Parker is in the ICU. I need to be at the hospital in case anything happens”
Hunter grabbed the ladle tightly. There was a hint of determination on his face.
“Other than having dinner, I also want to talk to you about our marriage.
“M-Marriage?” Andrea was so happy she could faint.
“The incident during the engagement party became public knowledge Williams Group’s stocks have become unstable because of it. That’s why I want to discuss our marriage with you.”
Hunter knew that their marriage was the one thing Andrea cared about the most. It was the best bait to lure her out.
“Okay, I’ll be there.”
Hunter gave Kelvin some instructions. Then, he went upstairs with the cooled soup in his hands.
Sounds of washing up could be heard from the bathroom. Soon, Madison emerged with droplets of water clinging to her.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Hunter. Their gazes met.
She hadn’t dried her hair, so it hung in wet clumps.
Her fair face was cold and stern. Her slender collar bones were exposed above the casual clothes she was wearing.
Hunter discreetly looked away. He gulped a little.
When he saw Madison like that, he was reminded of that enchanting dream. Even the touch of her skin felt too real.
It was so real that he could still remember Madison’s warmth and her heart-racing sounds.
“The soup is ready. Try it and see if there are any changes.”
Madison had been bustling about all morning, so she didn’t get to have any soup. Her stomach was already hurting long ago.
When Chris took her away from the island, she left in a hurry. She didn’t even bring her medicine.
She had enough doses for a whole month.
She had taken the medicine for two weeks, and in those two weeks, her stomach never hurt. She no longer spat out blood as well.
Colin emphasized that she shouldn’t stop taking the medicine. She had to take it regularly.
But after she came back, she tried calling him to no avail. As a result of her stopping the medicine, her stomach began to hurt again.
So, she didn’t want to torment her body any further. “Thank you.”
Hunter wanted to feed her the soup, but she avoided his hand. The temperature was just right, so she downed it in one go.
Hunter grabbed a towel and gently dried her hair with it. His movements were tender, as if he was handling something fragile.
He was careful beyond description.
