A gun pointed at her head.His voice sent chills to the bone.
“I will make you regret living.”
Surprisingly, she appeared calm.
“If I were you, I wouldn’t have been this impulsive, Mr.Yale.I’ve never dragged Molly into the fray between you and Hunter.It’s my first time meeting her today.She almost fainted, and I caught her.I felt her pulse so I know her condition.”
He had faith in her medical skills.
If it hadn’t been for her, Hunter and Linus would’ve died back then.
“Are you kind enough to turn a blind eye and put our bad blood aside?”
“I’m a doctor, as well as a mother.I hope others won’t go through what I experienced.I only found out that she’s your sister a moment ago.”
She eyed him coldly.
“If I were you, I would put down the gun immediately.What do you think?”
Withdrawing the gun, he apologized indifferently, “Sorry.”
“Honestly, I’m relieved that you’re doing this.”
“Just what are you up to?”
Madison leveled with him.
“I’ll be honest with you about your sister’s condition.Her body’s weak because she has been poisoned.”
“Poisoned? How could this be?”
“It’s a chronic poison.It doesn’t show symptoms, so it’s hard to tell.”
“A poison that doesn’t show symptoms? Why is the other party doing this?”
She grinned.
“Because this poison shortens the victims’ lifespan.And it’s nearly impossible to tell how long one can live.”
His face fell.
“What did you say!”
“Relax.Molly’s body is clean.She was probably fed a small dose of it when she was young.It won’t cost her life instantly.But it’s different as time passes.She should’ve died when she was ten.Even ordinary forensics might overlook it.”
There was a pause before she continued, “She’s still alive because she stopped the intake midway.It’ll slowly take a toll on her growth and immune system.That’s why it’s hard to notice its presence.
“People might merely think that her body is weak.I didn’t bring it up because I was afraid the culprit was around her.It’ll be troublesome if the culprit suddenly decides to finish her in one go.”
Madison’s explanation slowly wore his guard down, but his expression remained stoic.
“Based on what I observed, she’s important to you.That’s definitely not how the culprit would act.That’s why I’m being honest with you.”
Yale frowned.
“Molly was adopted when she was seven.Someone saved her from the water.Her head hit a rock, so she couldn’t remember anything before she turned seven.”
“The clues are falling into places.The culprit must’ve poisoned Molly before she turned seven.But luck’s on her side.I bet you’ve spent a lot of money on her, haven’t you? If you were a humble family, she would’ve long died.”
Yale’s hands balled into fists before he slammed the table.His expression was grim.
“Just who is that evil person? How could he poison such a young child?”
“It might have something to do with her true family.She’s lucky.If she was fed for another year and a half, she’d be gone by now.”
“She was always ill when we first adopted her.She was sent to the ICU several times.She was like a fragile doll.”
Those memories were painful for him to reminisce.
“But she’s a good girl.She never complains.”
Right then, he suddenly questioned why he was telling her all this.He almost exposed himself.
Fortunately for him, Madison didn’t think much about it.
All her focus was on Molly.
“You’re a good brother, though.”
He switched the topic.
“If it is as you said, could you remove the poison?”
She shook her head.
“Her metabolism has broken down the poison.It’s like water dripping on a rock.Making a dent out of it can happen—though it’s time-consuming—but even if you stop the water from dripping, the dent will still be there.”
“Didn’t you come to save her? I believe that you have a solution for this.”
“I’m afraid we’ll have to recount the situation to your family.To save her, you cannot keep the baby.As you know, a diet is important for a pregnant woman.There are a lot of medicines that they can’t take.There’s a high chance the baby will be born disabled.It’s better to abort it sooner…”
His heart wrenched at that.
He was happier than anyone when he learned the news of her pregnancy.
“The doctor said that it is difficult for her to get pregnant.If she aborts the baby, she might not be able to conceive another one in the future.”
“That is true based on her current condition.As I said, that baby shouldn’t have existed in the first place.Her body is weak.She took medications she shouldn’t have to get pregnant.
Consequently, her body is deteriorating.
“You might not be able to see it now because you take good care of her, and the baby is still little.It doesn’t need that much nutrients for now.But when the time comes, it’ll be tough for her to sustain even herself.” She sighed.
“If you don’t do something about it, there are only two outcomes.It’s either a miscarriage or—“
Yale clenched his fists.She noticed that his palms were red.
“Is this not a lie, Ms.Evans?”
His eyes were slightly red.
Madison was rendered speechless.
“Why should I do this to a pregnant woman with a weak body? I told you, I see my past self in her.I was in the late stage of cancer a few years ago, and I was pregnant.There was a risk of losing both myself and the baby.We’re women, so I simply wanted to help her.”
“What about you? How did you make a choice?”
A helpless smile hung on her face.
“The people around me acted the same as I am right now.They told me to opt for an abortion and that I could get pregnant in the future.But I couldn’t bring myself to do that.I took the risk and kept the baby.”
“Can Molly—“
“No.The treatment was hell.I paid the price by taking all sorts of medicines.Although there’s no big issue with the kid, she can’t speak until today.And her eyes were different from others.Gamble with a person’s life? You might ruin his whole life.
“And what if he turns into a monster? On top of that, there’s an important fact to consider—I was healthy.I was just sick.But Molly is weak and easily broken.” She sighed.
“Just tell me who the father is.I have to discuss this with the baby’s parents.I’m a doctor.I can’t make decisions for them.”
That question put Yale in a difficult position.
“That baby is an accident.The father is dead.I’ve been looking after Molly for years, so I think I can decide for her as her guardian.”
According to the rumors, Molly hadn’t married yet.
Yale could be thinking of her reputation, so he wasn’t willing to reveal much.
As a woman herself, Madison could understand.She had been through it and didn’t want others to suffer the same.
Thus, she didn’t pry further into the matter.
“Fine.I can see that Ms.Molly is a kind person.She seems to care a lot about the baby.I’ll leave the decision to you and her.If you’re up for the abortion, you can hit me up to look after her then.If she recovers well, there could be a chance for another pregnancy.”
“Really?”
“I can’t guarantee that.I can only say that I’ll be in charge of the recovery treatment.As for how much she could recover from it, it depends on her body.The abortion shouldn’t be done when she’s more than week 12.
“It’s best to do it between weeks four to eight.”Madison checked the time.
“Help me convey the message to Ms.Molly.I should get going.”
“Go ahead.”
Yale feared she might find out about his romantic relationship with Molly if she stayed longer.It was the crunch time.
Madison mustn’t get in his way with Krystal and the Heaths.It had been years since he waited for this moment.
He held up so long for this! Madison turned around to grab the door handle when Yale suddenly called,
“Ms.Evans.”
She paused.
He said, “Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.”
“Save it.I didn’t help you.Your grudge with Hunter is your business to deal with.This is simply an act of sympathy toward another woman.”
She opened the door and left.
This fateful encounter with Molly was written in the stars.
Saving Molly could be a message to Madison from God.
Indeed, Molly was a lucky person.
Not only did she survive the poison and drowning, but she was also adopted by the Kingstons.
An adoptive family with a decent income wouldn’t have been able to pay her hospital bills.
The Kingstons undeniably spent a lot of money and care into looking after Molly.
However, everyone’s body was different.
There was a limit to what Madison could do.
It was better than leaving Molly and her baby dead without anyone knowing the reason.
As Madison descended the stairs, her steps unsettled Molly.
The latter held Madison’s hand.
“Vanessa, what’s happening to my body?”
Molly’s crystal-clear eyes reminded Madison of her past self.
Madison, who couldn’t bring herself to hurt Molly, caressed her head.
Molly was skinny and shorter than Madison.
“Nothing.I’ve told everything to your brother.He’ll inform you later.”
“Why can’t you tell me directly?”
“Because I have to leave now.Something urgent came up.He’ll do the deed for me.”
