“The cab is here.” Madison then put on her jacket.
As she placed a hand on the doorknob, she heard him ask, “Madison, did you ever regret letting go of everything to marry him?”
Did she regret it?
Hunter was the cause of her family’s misery. Her father was hospitalized after suffering from a huge shock right after a car accident, while Madison herself lost her darling child.
Logically speaking, she should be regretting her decision, but when she closed her eyes, she would remember the shipwreck and the man who had rescued and dragged her back from the storm.
He was the youngster she once met at school.
She forced her tears at bay and said to Vince, “I don’t.”
Vince watched her leave with mixed feelings, and the door closed with a click.
When Madison arrived at the hospital, Jeff was still in the ICU. She could only watch him from afar. The questions she had for him were lodged in her throat.
In her memories, her father was a person who was both kind and humble. Before her parents’ divorce, they never raised their voices at each other.
He never remarried after Chloe left. All the spare time he had, he would spend it accompanying Madison. Hunter kept mentioning her father, which meant the person he hated was not her.
When they were still together, he had mentioned having a little sister that went missing. Her disappearance took a toll on his mother’s mental health, which was why she stayed overseas all the time.
What was the connection between his lost sister and her father then?
Madison decided it was best to start investigating those who worked for her father. She rushed off to find Harvey, her father’s chauffeur, and Victor, their butler, at their respective homes.
The two of them had worked for her father for many years. Strangely, one had gotten into an accident and the other had gone overseas, and she was unable to contact them.
The only thing she knew now was that her father was still unconscious. She spent the day in a daze, not knowing what to do. Still, since things had come to this, the only explanation was that none of this was a coincidence.
Clearly, someone had devised this.
But Madison was no fool. Since she did not manage to obtain any clues from her family’s side, she shifted her target to Hunter’s chauffeur, Kelvin, and his assistant, Brent.
She checked her wristwatch for the time. It was only seven in the morning, so they should be on the way to Hunter’s place.
Madison dialed Brent’s number. After some time, he answered the call and said in his usual polite tone, “Mrs. Williams?”
Madison tried to suppress her bitterness when she heard him addressing her that way. “Mr. Ingram, I’ve made an appointment with Hunter to settle our divorce. Can you pick me up so we could go to the City Hall together?”
Brent fell silent. Just like Hunter, he did not like any sudden change of plans.
Hastily, Madison added, “Please don’t misunderstand. I don’t have other intentions. I’m just afraid that something might happen and stall us from getting divorced. I still haven’t settled my father’s medical bills—”
In truth, she was pretty close with them both. She was never rude to them, so when she spoke gently, Brent did not refuse. “Where are you, Mrs. Williams? I’ll be right there.”
Madison stated a location that was nearest to them. This place was along the road to Collington Cove, which was where Andrea lived.
Despite being reluctant to admit it, Hunter was caught spending the night here by the media multiple times. So, he must have been staying here when he and Madison were apart a few months back.
“Sorry, Mrs. Williams, but we’re almost in Midvale. You’ll have to wait for about 20 minutes.”
“Okay.” Madison was quite surprised. Midvale was somewhere near the Williams residence.
Did Hunter not live with Andrea?
Madison quickly dismissed the thought. Whether he stayed with Andrea was none of her business.
Kelvin drove fast, and they arrived in no time. As always, Brent opened the door for her. “Sorry for the wait, Mrs. Williams.”
Madison nodded and got in the car. “No worries.”
Brent was a rather stoic person. Compared to him, Kelvin was more lively and talkative. “Why didn’t you sleep in, Mrs. Williams? It’s so cold today. The sun isn’t even up yet,” Kelvin said.
Brent shot daggers at Kelvin to shut him up. Madison tried to exaggerate things by speaking slowly.
“Initially, I thought Hunter had a change of heart because of Andrea. But now, it seems it’s not just because of her. You two have been working with him for so long, so you should know something about his sister.”
The car came to an abrupt stop with a loud screech. Kelvin took his hands off the steering wheel and gestured to dismiss what she said. “You can’t just say things like that, Mrs. Williams.”
Calmly, Brent answered, “Mrs. Williams, you know that we usually won’t ask Mr. Williams about his personal matters. Even if we know something, we can’t disclose anything to you. Please understand.”
Madison covered part of her face with one hand. A tear slid down between her fingers as she said, “I know I’m making things difficult for you two, but I have no choice. Hunter wouldn’t tell me about it, and my dad is still unconscious after the surgery.
“My family has fallen into such a hopeless state, and I have no idea why. Even if I were to die, I’d want to know the truth. I don’t want to suffer from ignorance every day.”
“Mrs. Williams, what happened to Mr. Williams’s sister is taboo. We don’t know much about it.”
As if knowing that Madison would continue asking them for help, Brent started writing an address on a piece of paper and passed it to her.
“Mrs. Williams, since we’re friends, this is the most I can do to help you.”
Madison looked at the paper in her hand. It was the address of a cemetery.
Was Hunter’s sister dead?
Even so, what did her father have to do with her death?
If anyone were to know what kind of person her father was, it would be Madison. And she knew he was not one to harm others, let alone a young woman.
She knew that Brent and Kelvin would not disclose more information and decided to stop probing them. It was silent all the way to the Williamss’ residence. Madison had mixed feelings when they arrived.
Brent politely asked her, “Mrs. Williams, would you like to go inside?”
“No, thanks. I’ll wait for him here.”
This was the final time she would meet him, and it was only to settle their divorce. She did not want to cause more trouble for herself. Besides, every single thing in there would remind her of their time together, and she refused to reminisce about the past.
