Madison looked through the thick glass of the window. Chloe had her eyes shut tight as though she was in a deep sleep.
At the break of the dawn, Madison was still standing there.
When the sun rose, she saw Hunter.
He was wandering around with hurried steps. His worried expression faded as soon as he saw her.
“Madie.” His voice was hoarse because he had spent the night without sleep.
Compared to the storm of emotions in his eyes, she appeared rather calm-so calm that it gave one goosebumps.
Madison gazed at him indifferently. It was rare for her to see such an expression on his face. “You’ve come.”
He walked up to her. “Where did you and Avery go last night?”
“As you can see, we came to the hospital. Mom doesn’t have much time left. I want to keep her company until her final moments.”
Hunter clearly wasn’t buying it. If Madison wanted to come to the hospital, why would she cause a commotion by leaving the house in the middle of the night?
However, he couldn’t treat her the way he always did. Leia’s matter was fettering him with guilt.
He walked next to her, looking at her gently. “Why did you come here in the middle of the night and shake the bodyguards off? What if you encountered danger? Didn’t I say that it’s still dangerous out there? You should have the bodyguards follow you around wherever you go.”
Madison wouldn’t mention Avery’s matter no matter what.
Hunter didn’t dare to question further because he didn’t want to upset her.
She answered, “I couldn’t sleep, so I came here.”
He caressed his thumb while testing the waters. “I heard that you took Avery’s car. Are you close with him?”
“No. It’s because we share the same surname and I saved him once. He needed to come to the hospital, so he picked me up while he was on the way.” She glossed over her relationship with Avery. What about you? Did you find any leads after going to Toxic Hive?”
She stared at him. This was the last chance she was giving to him.
Hunter parted his lips, and the sight of Leia’s scarred arms crossed his mind.
He wasn’t fully prepared to settle this issue yet. At least, he couldn’t think of a way not to let Madison down.
However, he forgot about one thing. The moment he decided to keep her in the dark was the most hurtful thing he could do to her.
“I went to a castle. It’s their current secret base.”
Madison’s eyes were fixated upon him. She didn’t want to miss any change of expression on his face.” What then? What did you find?”
“I didn’t want to alert them, but I managed to discover something shocking. I made copies of documents relating to much of their secret research. I’ve asked the technical team to analyze them.”
“Other than that, did you meet anyone?”
Hunter looked into her clear eyes as a sense of foreboding settled in his stomach. It was as if she could see through him.
Still, he thought that it was impossible. He was there with Chris. How was she able to know that?
Hunter attempted his best to wear a calm expression. Yet, she managed to catch onto the brief glint of panic evident in his eyes.
“I did meet some people there, but they’re not anyone important. Madie, I’m here to take you home. You should get some rest. That brat is throwing a tantrum at Mina because he didn’t see you after waking up.”
When he started to avert the topic, coldness crept into her heart.
“He’s not planning to tell me the truth,” she thought to herself.
Madison had suffered for two years. Jeff was in a coma; Jodie, that innocent child, and Belle were dead.
However, none of these outweighed the fact that Hunter only cared for Leia.
Madison gazed at him with a calm gaze. “Let him be, then. What does Andrea’s son have to do with me?”
She was so calm that it made him anxious. “Madie, haven’t you liked him all along?”
“Like?” She smirked. “Sparing his life is my biggest mercy to him. I have to keep Mom company at the hospital. You should get going.”
She then faced her back at him.
From now onward, Madison was not going to trust Hunter anymore.
Even though she was going to die, she had to seek revenge for her family by doing the things that Hunter didn’t dare to do himself!
Madison wanted Leia dead!
Hunter clearly sensed Madison’s aloof attitude.
Had it been before, he would’ve forcefully taken her home.
However, he couldn’t bring himself to give her the cold shoulder now after what had happened-let alone say hurtful words.
Guilt was devouring him.
“Madie, I know that many things have happened, and you’re upset about them. Don’t worry, your father as soon as possible. He’ll be fine.”
I’ll save Madison, who was facing her back at him, coldly responded, “What’s the use of that? If we can’t find the mastermind, Dad might be harmed once more even after we save him. You promised to give me an answer to everything. When are you going to do that?”
He would’ve been able to answer that question with confidence in the past, but not now.
How could he tell Madison that the culprit was his very own sister?
That was his biological sister, whom he had wrapped up in cotton wool since childhood.
Hunter had searched for Leia for a long time. It was a tough journey before they reunited.
He would give Madison an answer to everything, but that would be at least after he got to the bottom of everything.
Licking his chapped lips, he said in a low voice, “Madie, this matter ain’t as simple as you think. Since I’ve promised you an answer to everything, I’ll find out the truth slowly. Just relax and get some rest at home.”
She let out a self-mocking smirk. “I’ll keep my mother company these few days. I won’t go anywhere else.”
Her firm stance left him with no choice. He had a lot of things to settle, so he couldn’t stay at the hospital with her.
He signed helplessly. Both of them were not in the state of mind to continue this discussion further.
“You can stay. I’ll ask Kelvin to stay as well. He can help you out if anything happens.”
Hunter was keeping an eye on her under the name of protection.
“Fine.” Madison didn’t want to waste her time exposing him.
Sensing that she didn’t want to speak to him, he excused himself and left the place. “I have to handle some matters. I’ll see you later. I’ll inform Kelvin to handle your meals. Don’t push yourself too hard.”
It had been a long time since Hunter last treated Madison so gently.
Unfortunately, his gentle acts gave her more reasons to resent him now.
Needless to say, it wasn’t the time to turn against him.
After all, she was the only person in the Evans family. If she provoked him, he might confine her for real.
There were a lot of things she needed to do. Therefore, she must take advantage of the free time given by the guilty man.
Hunter could vaguely notice that Madison was in low spirits, and he blamed it on the matters that had happened recently. It was natural for her to be upset over them.
Furthermore, he was too busy and didn’t have time to spare.
He hopped into the car with hurried steps. Once inside, he reclined in the back seat exhaustedly.
Seeing him raise his head, Brent asked, “How’s Mrs. Williams doing?”
“She’s in low spirits. Ms. Parker doesn’t have much time left.” Hunter kneaded his eyebrows. “Keep an eye on Avery. Don’t let him come close to Madie.”
Although Madison and Hunter were divorced, someone might still set her up.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Williams. I’ve found out that Avery will be returning to his country tomorrow. He won’t be able to meet her. He must’ve done that yesterday to repay her favor for saving him.”
“Don’t forget that he’s still single.” Hunter was alert.
It pained Brent to see those dark circles beneath Hunter’s eyes.
Brent turned the steering wheel and glanced at him through the rearview mirror.
Brent couldn’t help but ask, “Are you really not going to tell Mrs. Williams about Ms. Williams?”
Hunter had his speculations all along, but he was able to confirm Leia’s true identity now.
