She straightened herself and replied flatly, “Yeah, it slipped.”
Chris sounded relieved. “Mr. Williams, you heard her. She…”
She boldly added, “If it hadn’t slipped from my hand, it would have hit you right at the back of your head, you asshole!”
Chris was speechless. Madison was adding fuel to the fire.
Hunter shoved Chris aside and went up to hiss at her through gritted teeth, “Madison Evans!”
Fuming, she grabbed a bottle of pills from the headboard and jumped out of bed angrily. Then, she tried to smash the bottle on Hunter’s head. “Fucking bastard! I’ll fight you!”
Hunter effortlessly caught her weak hands and pinned them behind her back.
Defeatedin no time, she was red in the face, and her eyes were misty. Hunter felt complicated when he saw this, and he felt more pain than resentment.
Finally, he drew a sharp breath to calm his anger. He flung her onto the bed and threatened, “Remember what you did today. You’d better pray that you don’t fall into my hands.”
Her behavior was no different than waltzing across a field full of landmines. He had to exert a ridiculous amount of self- control to stop himself from grabbing her neck.
However, his warning only fanned the flames. She growled, “I would never ask you for help even if I had to jump off the seventh floor.”
Giving her a last glare, he left the room and slammed the door behind him. Then, he took his bodyguards with him. Brent caught up to him and asked, “Mr. Williams, aren’t you worried that Mrs. Williams might attempt suicide again?”
Hunter took off his jacket and replied with a serious face, “A woman like her would never consider death seriously. I don’t want to waste time on her anymore.”
Brent frowned at Hunter’s conclusion. As a bystander, he had a clearer view of the events. No sane person would bet on their life by jumping from the seventh floor, which might result in grave injuries or death. Madison could have died if Hunter had not gone after Madison and Kelvin had not placed the inflatable cushions in time.
Still, Hunter was adamant that Madison was playing hard to get, and he wouldn’t have it otherwise.
Back in the room, Chris requested a nurse to clean up the soupy mess. He flattened the bed and patiently advised Madison, “Mrs. Williams, you can always talk things out calmly. You shouldn’t resolve to extreme methods. Mr. Williams still cares about even stood guard outside your room last night. So…”
Madison was in no mood for his nagging. Instead, she questioned, “Mr. Atkins, could there be a mistake in the results?” Chris immediately put on a straight face. “Mrs. Williams, you can insult me as much as you want but do not question my professionalism. We ran your results through experts in the field. How can there be a mistake?”
Then, he let out a relieved sigh. “I was shocked to see your low red blood count last night. I even thought you had… Oh, by the way, did you receive any treatment before this?”
He took his duty as a doctor seriously and asked an additional question.
Recalling the look in Hunter’s eyes, Madison answered quickly, “No.”
“That’s great, then. It’s just a viral infection. You may be discharged after a few days of monitoring at the hospital.”
Chris felt as if a burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He gave her some more advice and left after she ignored him.
Madison had already done a biopsy which had confirmed her stomach cancer, but the CT scan results this time showed nothing. She had only undergone one chemotherapy session. Although it was very effective and the tumor would shrink, it would not disappear overnight.
Evidently, something was off with the results, and only someone from the inside could have tampered with it.
The person who did it must have been fearless if they had dared to do it right under Hunter’s nose.
Who could it be? Was it Andrea?
Was the incident at the grave not enough that this person had to alter Madison’s checkup results?
Although there were no other suspects besides Andrea, Madison still felt that there was something fishy about the whole incident. If it was not Andrea, then the real culprit was very terrifying.
Many things that had happened over these two years may seem like mere coincidences, but it was strange when Madison thought about it carefully. It was as if someone was controlling her like a puppet.
By right, Hunter could get to the bottom of it easily, but she was a liar in his eyes now. He would just think that she was making up stories. Besides, the culprit would be on guard if they investigated openly.
Madison dared not alarmed Chris, so she had no choice but to investigate the radiologist privately. Coincidentally, Mercy Hospital was owned by the Atkins family, so Madison already had a plan.
Although news of the previous night’s incident had already been hushed, it had reached Calvin’s ears. Before Madison could take the initiative, he came to visit her.
Calvin was different from Chris. While Chris had devoted himself to the research and development of medicine, Calvin had joined the hospital and made it to the rank of director in three years. Calvin could more or less guess the situation between her and Hunter, but he still smiled dazzlingly.
“Madison, I really didn’t expect to see you again so soon. How are you?”
“My fever has subsided. Thanks for asking.”
Lying down on the hospital bed, Madison looked quite pale and sounded weak when she spoke. Noticing her dry lips, Calvin handed her a glass of warm water and said gently, “Here, drink some water.”
“Thank you.” Madison took the glass and drank a big gulp of water. In her haste to swallow it, she choked on the water and coughed violently. Calvin put a pillow behind her and patted her back gently.
“Don’t rush. Drink slowly.”
“You’re still the same as ever.” Madison had lost the hostile air she had when she was with Hunter.
A look of sympathy came into Calvin’s eyes as he asked curiously, “Did you drop out of university back then for Mr. Williams?”
Madison smiled helplessly and said, “It was very foolish of me, wasn’t it? I thought I would have a bright future ahead of me, but when I took the leap of faith, I hit rock bottom instead.”
“As long as you’re willing to push forward, the opportunities ahead of you are endless,” said Calvin gently. “You still have a long way to go.”
His kindness, as always, gave Madison some courage. She asked, “Calvin, since we were once classmates, could you do me a favor?
“Just say the word. I will do my best if it’s within my power.”
Madison looked around to make sure they were alone before telling him the gist of the situation in a low voice. She had expected Calvin’s initial reaction to be defending the hospital’s reputation and repudiating her, but he took her checkup report instead. His gentle expression gave way to a sterner one.
“Don’t worry, Madison. If anyone from my hospital dares to falsify information, I will punish them accordingly.”
After Madison voiced her concerns, Calvin patted her shoulder and said, “It won’t do the hospital any good if this incident blows up. I will make sure to deal with this subtly and get back to you with an explanation.”
Madison saw no sign of Hunter over the next two days, but she had Everly taking care of her while berating Hunter.
“Do you think that idiot got possessed? Why does he keep acting up? First, he wants a divorce, then next, he can’t accept you dating someone new. Now he’s even saying that you’re pretending to be sick. I think you should get some holy water to drive away whatever evil is possessing him,” ranted Everly.
Madison said calmly, “He’s not possessed. He’s just crazy.”
After two days of rest, she felt back to normal other than her stomach still causing her problems. After hearing her out, Calvin suggested doing another checkup for her, but she politely declined. She just said she had already done a checkup at another hospital and was currently receiving treatment.
