Filed to story: Mr Williams Madame Is Dying Novel Free Online (Madison & Hunter)
Madison thought she was becoming deranged. Why did everyone look like Hunter to her?
Logan was obviously more slender than Hunter. He was also very quiet and honest, unlike the dignified demeanor that Hunter had.
It was clear that Logan liked cats, but he didn’t dare to show it when Madison was around in the day. So he could only play with Snowball in the middle of the night.
No wonder Snowball had been sleepy during the day recently.
Madison wasn’t drowsy anymore, so she got off the bed.
Snowball purred and ran toward Madison when it noticed her.
Logan didn’t expect Madison to wake up. He quickly stood up with an anxious expression.
“Ms. Evans, I’m sorry. I- Did I rouse you from your sleep? Snowball came out to play, so I played with it for a little.”
Madison smiled. “It’s fine. I slept too much during the day. Continue playing with Snowball. It likes you a lot.”
“Maybe it just likes the cat teaser you bought.”
Logan scratched his head, looking embarrassed.
Madison wondered why she would relate an honest man like Logan to Hunter.
“Do you like cats?”
“Yeah. I had a pet cat back in my hometown when I was young. But we never fed it anything special, just leftovers.”
Madison had been putting on a stiff expression on most days, but she finally smiled at that moment.
“If you like it, you should play with it more often. Kittens have a lot of energy, and I am sick. So I can’t play with Snowball too much.”
Madison’s legs were still in bad condition. She still couldn’t crouch. If she moved too much, she would start to feel dizzy.
It was a good thing Snowball was very well-behaved near her. It would lay quietly on her things and keep her company.
Logan scratched his head. “If you don’t mind, Ms. Evans. I can take care of Snowball.”
“Thanks for putting up with my requests.”
“It’s no trouble at all. Are you going to be sitting here for some more time?” Logan looked at her.
“Yeah.”
“One moment.”
Logan went to the living room, took a blanket, and draped it around her.
I heard Mr. Collins say you were very sick. Although it doesn’t snow here during winter, it is still pretty cold.
“You have to be careful not to catch a cold.”
Madison was stunned as she looked at the blanket. She didn’t know what to feel.
She raised her head to see Logan standing in place anxiously.
“- Ms. Evans, did I do something wrong?”
Madison shook her head. “No. I was just thinking about something.”
It was rare that they got a chance to hold a conversation.
Logan mustered up the courage to ask, “What were you thinking about, Ms. Evans.”
“I was just thinking about how you showed concern for me even though we barely know each other.
*Meanwhile, the people that were close to me only hurt me repeatedly. Why is it so?”
Logan sat down some distance from Madison.
While playing with Snowball, he said, “I had a female cat at home when I was a child. I watched its stomach grow, and I looked forward to the birth of her kittens.
“When that happened, I didn’t sleep for the entire night. I feared the kittens would be in danger because they were left outside.
“So I took them into a little nest I made for them when their mother wasn’t looking.
“The funny thing is we were living in poverty in that village. Most people in the village don’t even have enough food or clothes.
“The winter winds were freezing. So, I used my own sweater to make the nest for the kittens. I also prepared clean water and food for them. Guess what happened?”
“What happened?”
“My kindness doomed the kittens. The new nest caused them to carry different scents. The mother was very sensitive and suspicious after birth.
“She thought she was placed in a dangerous environment, so she killed all the kittens.”
Snowball finally grabbed the cat teaser. Then, Logan looked at Madison.
“So, do you think I didn’t love the kittens enough, Ms. Evans?”
Madison didn’t have a response to that.
He added, “It’s not that I didn’t love them-quite the contrary. I loved them too much. I did everything in. my power to give them the best life.
“But my actions caused them to be killed. I was devastated when they died. I think the person you’re talking about might be the same as me. He loved you too much and ended up hurting you.”
Madison was at a loss for words.
Logan saw that the atmosphere got tense.
He quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Ms. Evans. I overstepped. I shouldn’t have brought up the past like
“It’s okay. I couldn’t sleep and was bored anyway. I don’t mind chatting with you. You must’ve been to many places, right?”
“Yes. Even though I don’t have much money, I’ve been to many places. What do you want to hear about, Ms. Evans?”
“Anything is fine. I don’t mind listening to stories about interesting people or events.”
“Have you seen a cave full of fireflies? It was so beautiful. The fireflies were like stars in the sky.
“There was also a place called the Earth’s Eye. It’s a colorful lake that looks like an eye when you look down from above.
“There’s a place called Death Gorge. Have you heard of it?
“There are also glaciers in the North Pole that flow into the valleys. They form icefalls that cascade down the side of the valleys. It is truly an amazing view.”
Madison’s eyes were filled with yearning as she listened.
“How nice would it be if I could see these sceneries in person? It’s embarrassing, but I’ve never been to many places.
“It’s okay, Ms. Evans. You’ll be fine. I’ve seen many people with terminal diseases survive miraculously.
“I’ll bring you to these places when you get better, as long as you pay me. How about that?”
A breeze blew and sent shivers down Madison’s spine. She pulled the blanket tighter around her.
Then, she raised her hand and caught a falling plum blossom.
Snowball became excited and started chasing falling plum blossoms around. It was a very serene atmosphere.
Madison smiled. “I’ll visit these places someday.”
The world was a big place.
She wanted to visit many places. Do things that she had never done. She also wanted to look for her missing twins.
As her mood improved, the days were more tolerable.
Vince was relieved to see her complexion improve. So, the frequency of his visits declined.
At the end of the month, Vince and Irene held their engagement ceremony.
Although they didn’t exactly come from the most prestigious families, they still hailed from families of renowned medical professionals. Many people showed up to congratulate the couple.
Madison wanted to attend, too. But she didn’t dare to risk it.
She didn’t want the Williamss to find her. So, she could only wait at home and look at the pictures and videos Irene sent her.
Irene also talked to her in a proud and happy voice.
“I really wish you could be here, Madison.”
Madison zoomed in on the picture. Irene had a bright smile and a hopeful glow in her eyes.
Vince stood beside her. He was tall and handsome. There was a faint smile on his face, too.
Madison could feel the happiness emanating from them from the photos. It brought a smile to her face, but tears suddenly started to flow as she was smiling.
The tears fell on her phone’s screen. She could see her past self in Irene. She was also excited and happy when she registered her marriage with Hunter at the City Hall.
When the photographer took a picture of them that day, she thought that would be how it was for the rest of her life.
Who knew things would turn out the way they did?
Two people who loved each other ended up becoming strangers, never to be reunited.
The love was gone, replaced by seething hatred and crippling grief.
She looked at the sky as tears streamed down her face. She was reminiscing about the youth she lost.
Suddenly, a glass of lemonade appeared before her. She raised her head and saw Logan.
He was carrying several bags of groceries. He had a sincere smile on his face.
“Ms. Evans, I bought these at the supermarket just now. I heard that young women lo
“I thought you would love it, too, since you’re still very young. Why are you crying?”
Madison wiped her tears and said, “It’s nothing. I was just happy for Dr. Collins and Irene. I hope they can live happily ever after.
“There are too many couples that love each other but end up separating.
“I hope they can break the curse and stay together for the rest of their lives.”
“You’re being so sentimental now, Ms. Evans. Did you love someone with such vigor in the past?”
Madison touched the cup of lemonade with her fingers.
The lemonade was cold, so there were water droplets on the cup.It felt cold to the touch.She didn’t answer the question.
Instead, she asked, “What about you? You don’t look that young.You must have someone you love, right?”
Logan smiled brightly and didn’t try to keep it a secret.
“Yeah.I met a woman a long time ago.I was very poor, and I was injured.But she didn’t care about all that and saved me.It was love at first sight for me.”
“What happened next?”
Other people’s stories were always nice.
They wouldn’t make Madison feel sad.
“Nothing.She was a good woman.Someone like me, who would do anything for money, wasn’t worthy of her.
“She was like the moon, forever out of reach.I’m happy to keep her in my memories.”
