The pungent smell of medicine lingered in the air.
Madison didn’t have the courage to enter the room before this.
She was aware that the day she made up her mind would be the day she bid farewell.
Thick layers of snow filled the yard after a snowy night.
Madison drew the thick curtains to open the window, letting the sunlight and wind in.
“Dad, I bet it’s been a long time since you last got some fresh air outside. It’s winter again. It’s snowing.”
Although Madison’s right hand wasn’t as sensitive as her left hand, she could make simple movements with it.
She scooped the snow and began molding it into a snow rabbit.
“I remember you’d always have snow fights and build a snowman with me in the yard whenever it snowed. Your craftsmanship is always on point.
“I once said that when you’re old, I will push you in a wheelchair so that we can have a snow fight and build a snowman. But I guess we can’t anymore.
“Dad, you’ve always been the young and handsome father to me. But today, I suddenly realized that you’re already old. Your shoulders aren’t as broad as before. It has been tough for you to come this far, right?”
She cried while smiling. “Sorry for making you stay again and again because of my selfishness. I won’t do the same now. I’m going to set you free, Dad.”
Her tears fell onto Jeff’s face. “Actually, I found out that you’re not my biological father some time ago. But so what? To me, you will always be my father.
“Even if you’re no longer by my side, I will keep those memories I had with you and the lessons you taught me to guide me ahead.”
As she finished bedding farewell, the doctors swarmed the room. “Mrs. Williams.”
Tears pooled in her eyes as she said, “Do it.”
Someone switched the ventilator off while someone removed the tubes from Jeff one by one.
Madison placed the snow rabbit on Jeff’s palm.
“I love you, Dad.”
The warm sheen of sunlight caressed his palm, slowly melting the snow rabbit.
His skinny fingers slightly tightened as though he was trying to hold the snow rabbit.
A tear trickled down from the corner of his eye. It was his last farewell to Madison.
“You don’t have to worry about me. I know what I’m going to do. I will live well.”
His heartbeat stopped, and there was a smile on his face.
He finally let it go, and so did she.
She should’ve done that earlier, but she made him stay. She was making him stay with no dignity until today.
Hunter held her shoulder, cooing, “Don’t be sad.”
“I’m not. I’m happy.”
Jeff might have a new life soon. But Madison hoped that he could live a happy life in his next lifetime.
His funeral was a simple one. Only Madison’s close acquaintances knew about it.
Her grandparents had passed away a long time ago. That made her uncles and aunts the only visitors.
These relatives had cut ties with Madison’s family the moment they were announced bankrupt. Even though the relatives paid a visit to the funeral, none of them were genuine.
They previously heard that she got married to someone in secret and spoke ill of her behind her back.
They claimed that she had a filthy private life, messing around with men and getting married in the end because of pregnancy.
Jeff didn’t inform them because he was afraid that it would be an embarrassment.
Now that they found out that Hunter was her ex-husband, they regretted it so much.
They faked tears at the funeral, trying to get close to Madison.
However, Kelvin and Brent got in their way before they could get closer to her. No one could come near her.
Snowflakes were dancing in the air. She was dressed in black as Hunter stood next to her, holding an umbrella to shelter her from the snow.
She knelt before the gravestone, praying again and again.
“Dear God, may Jeff Evans rest in peace and have his wish granted.”
Andrea, who was sitting in a wheelchair, watched Hunter hold an umbrella for Madison from afar.
He was standing while Madison was kneeling. They somehow looked like a match made in heaven standing before the snowy background.
Andrea had asked him about Jeff’s whereabouts many times, but he didn’t tell her anything.
It was only this morning that she received news about Jeff’s death.
She couldn’t even see Jeff in his last moments or send him off for the one last time.
She thought that Jeff didn’t know that her biological daughter was her until his last day.
Hunter was cruel, but he told her that this was her karma.
But Andrea didn’t know what she did wrong.
She was kept in the dark for so many years. In the end, she killed her parents with her bare hands. It pricked her guilty conscience day and night.
During those days when she first returned to the country, she thought she was the happiest person in the world.
She had a harmonious family, a loving mother, and a protective Hunter.
Yet, she ended up like this a year later.
The Daviss had experienced a huge change-Hunter called off their engagement, her parents passed away, and she became a disabled person.
Andrea asked someone to push her wheelchair toward Madison.
She looked at Madison’s pretty face, thinking, “This bitch is getting prettier.”
“Are you happy now?”
Madison, who was dwelling on grief, turned after hearing Andrea’s voice.
Madison’s eyes were red. The sorrow in them faded away the moment she saw Andrea.
“Happy? Happy about what? About how Mom’s condition worsened because you refused to donate your bone marrow for Mom even though it was a match?
“Or about how Dad was saved, but you made him relapse? You’re the cause of all this. What do you want me to feel happy about?”
It was all Andrea’s fault, and she was angered because Madison exposed her. “You must’ve manipulated Hunter not to let me meet Dad. How cruel! You didn’t even let me meet him in his last moments.”
Madison merely sneered at Andrea’s rebuke, finding it a waste of time to explain her stance.
Madison wiped the tear away from the corner of her eye before rising to her feet. She then strode toward Andrea and placed her hands beside her, caging her.
Madison’s eyes were icy. “So what if I did that on purpose? I’m Dad’s only daughter. You wish you could send him off one last time? You don’t deserve to do so.”
Furious, Andrea raised her hand to slap Madison.
A year ago, Andrea could berate and hit Madison, but the latter seemed to have changed into a different person now.
Madison grabbed Andrea’s hand easily. Madison’s left hand was more sensitive after the training. It was stronger than her right hand.
Feeling that her wrist was going to snap, Andrea turned and gave Hunter a pitiful look. “Hunter, look at her…”
The man, who had always sided with her, frowned. He looked at him with cold eyes.
“Andrea Davis, I said not to cross the line. Stop testing my patience.”
“Hunter, how could you do this to me?”
“How could I not? Keep in mind that I was never the person who owed you.” He glared at her before holding the umbrella for Madison to leave the place together.
Andrea threw herself at him like a mad woman, but she fell onto the snowy ground.
The cold snow covered her face.
She crawled forward like a dog, yelling, “Hunter, please! Look back at me! Can’t you look at me just for once?”
Madison stopped in her tracks to turn to look at Andrea after hearing her despairing voice.
Andrea didn’t care about the housekeeper, who was trying to help her up. She was so stubborn that she wanted to crawl toward Hunter.
Her helpless and pitiful state reminded Madison of her past. Madison had once pleaded with Hunter not to divorce her.
She now realized how pitiful she seemed at that time.
“Are you going to let her be?” Madison crossed her arms, assuming that Hunter ignored Andrea because he was considering her emotions.
“You don’t have to mind me. It doesn’t bother me.”
Hunter was hurt to hear that. He held Madison’s hand. “Madie, I have never loved Andrea. I said I was going to marry her because I wanted to repay a favor.”
She sneered. “And that repayment requires you to have sex with her? Interesting.”
“Madie, Connor’s actually-” When he was going to blurt that out, he closed his eyes only to recall the night he rescued Madison from the sea.
She almost died at that time, and it broke his heart to recall that again.
He still didn’t know who was the mastermind that wanted to assassinate her. If someone found out that Connor was actually Madison’s child, Connor would be in trouble!
Thus, Hunter could only swallow the secret at the tip of his tongue.
Madison spared him a glance and left without waiting for his explanation.
She would only need an explanation from him if she cared for him. She didn’t, so why would she care about his emotions?
Andrea was getting closer to the couple, and yet they walked away, leaving her alone.
She shouted at the top of her lungs, “Hunter!”
She would never mention Kurt’s matter in front of others. He was her last trump card.
Although Hunter had called off his engagement with Andrea, he didn’t reduce his provision to the Daviss. He still looked after them.
The Daviss’ position was vulnerable now.
Back then, Chris was around to keep things under control. Even though he didn’t have a son, no one dared to lay a finger on them.
Now that Chris had passed away and Andrea was disabled, in addition to the called-off engagement, her relatives were getting restless.
They didn’t dare to set their plans into action solely due to Hunter’s formidable influence.
Andrea was having a tough life. On the one hand, she had to please Hunter with caution; on the other hand, she had to bear the pressure from the Daviss.
Snowflakes landed upon her. Her body was cold, but it couldn’t beat the chill creeping into her heart.
All Andrea could do was to watch Hunter slowly walking farther and farther from her with sorrowful eyes.
Madison shoved Hunter’s hand and got into the car alone. The heat in the car was warming her up.
He handed her a hand warmer. “Your body is affected by the preterm delivery, so you can’t be exposed to the cold. Warm yourself up.”
