Disappointment settled in Hunter’s eyes.
“I see.”
“You should focus on your recovery, Mr.Williams.You’ve been in bad shape since losing Mrs.Williams.Your immunity isn’t that strong.Had it been the previous you, you wouldn’t have run such a serious fever after only staying in the cold water for a night.”
Brent added, “There’s a discrepancy with Kelvin’s logic, but he has a point.You’re not as healthy as you were in the past.Not to mention that burning the midnight oil has become a routine for you.
“Mr.Williams, if you don’t take care of yourself, how are you going to protect Mrs.Williams in the future? You haven’t even found out who wants her dead either.”
Hunter was aware that the two of them were right.
Had it been the previous Hunter, all he needed to do to recover from a cold or fever was drink warm water.
It wouldn’t have been as serious as it was right now.
“Where’s the oatmeal?”
“I’ve asked Joshua to bring it over.Right, you gotta eat more to recover sooner.”
Hunter hummed in response.
Seeing how cooperative Hunter was, Kelvin carried over a bunch of stuff from the other room.
“Mr.Williams, I chose these presents specially for you.”
Hunter, who was having oatmeal, didn’t raise his gaze.
“What are they?”
“Good stuff.Come, look.I bet you’ve never seen them before.”
Only then did Hunter look at Kelvin, wondering what was there in the world that he hadn’t seen before.
Kelvin rummaged through the box for a while before taking out something made of rubber.
It was indeed Hunter’s first time seeing this item.
“That’s …”
Kelvin introduced it enthusiastically, “This is specially for managing men’s sexual frustration.It’s the best for self- pleasure.”
The glint in Hunter’s eyes turned cold.
“Get out of here with that thing.Don’t make me repeat myself.”
Brent scolded him too, “Get out!”
“So they left to buy this kind of stuff,” thought the livid Hunter.
Kelvin’s voice could be heard from afar.
“Don’t drive me out! If you don’t like that, you can customize a life-size doll.You can even make its voice as realistic as it could be.Just give them some time—“
Hunter threw the bowl at the door, spilling the oatmeal on the floor.
Brent hurriedly explained, “He’s just that kind of guy.He has good intentions.Don’t be mad, Mr.Williams.”
Hunter said coldly, “Are women simply a tool for pleasure to you guys? Can they be replaced by anything? I love her simply because it’s her.It’s meaningless to make love with someone you don’t love.”
Time ticked by.
It had been three days, but Logan wasn’t back yet, let alone the child.
Madison’s patience was running thin.She stopped Joshua again.
“How is Logan? It’s been days.Has he not shown improvement yet?”
“Don’t worry, Miss.He’s feeling a lot better now.He’s just worried that he might spread his illness to you.”
She wasn’t certain that Logan was avoiding her on purpose or if it was really due to serious illness.
After all, he had treated her well all this while.
She thought that she would be able to have peace of mind after paying him a visit.
Madison inquired, “I’d like to see him.Where is he?”
“It’s fine.Logan doesn’t want you to be there.”
“I’ll drop by for a moment.I’ll leave after making sure of his condition.Where is his room?”
Joshua showed hesitance.
“I…”
“If you don’t want to tell me, don’t think of stepping out of this door today.”
He scratched the back of his head.
“Miss, I brought you food under Logan’s request.Please don’t make things difficult for me.”
“I just want to see him.How am I making things difficult for you?”
“Fine, I’ll inform Logan about it.”
Only then did she give in.
“I’ll be waiting for your good news.”
Joshua ran back to Hunter, who had yet to recover.
His fever had subsided, but he needed some time to fully recover due to his bad health.
Other than being sick, the other reason he didn’t return to Madison was because he couldn’t face her.
Knowing that she was going to visit him, he decorated his room.
When Joshua came to send dinner, Madison entrusted the child to him.
He told her Hunter’s room number, and she headed there.
It was her first time going outside after boarding the ship.
The cold sea breeze caressed her face as she strolled along the long corridor.
The wild waves pounded against the ship, shaking it.While Madison was looking for the right room, there stood a woman in red nearby.
The latter was pinching a cigarette.
Her back was resting against the guardrail, and one of her legs was extended.
The low-cut dress revealed the rose tattoo on her collarbone.
Madison said softly, “Make way, please.”
The woman raised her head to size Madison up.
Madison was wearing a mask that covered her whole face.
The woman withdrew her leg, and Madison shifted her gaze.
Madison felt that the woman’s gaze was still on her although she had walked to the end of the corridor.
She wondered if it was simply her delusion.
When she finally arrived at the room, she keyed in the password given by Joshua.
The door clicked and opened.
The lights weren’t turned on, so she could only make out the room’s structure based on the dim light cascading through the window.
There lay a person on the big bed.
Madison intended to turn the lights on, but she didn’t want to disturb the other party.
Hence, she walked over gingerly.
“Logan?” she asked.
“It’s me.”
She heaved a sigh of relief at the familiar voice.
“Can I turn the lights on?”
“Sure.”
She turned on the light at the headboard upon receiving permission.
Hunter was resting against the headboard, and he didn’t seem better than before despite having rested for days.
She never expected the drug to be this strong.
“How are you feeling?”
“Don’t worry, Miss. I feel much better already.”
Noticing the awkwardness on her face, he took the initiative to break the silence.
“Sorry, I wasn’t in the right mind that night.”
“It’s fine.”
She took a deep breath.
“Aside from checking in on you, there’s another reason why I’m here.”
“I’m all ears.”
“There’s a week left before we arrive in Aldenvine.I’d like to know your plans.”
Hunter was aware of that.
“My plans aren’t important.Yours matters more.What’s your plan, Miss?”
Hunter knew Madison so well that he was certain she wouldn’t stay by his side after what had happened.
He had long expected such a day would come, so he had been avoiding her and simply wishing that the day would come later.
She first poured him a glass of water before seating herself on a chair. “Speaking about it, this is the first time I’ve poured you a glass of water even though you’ve been looking after us for a long time.”
Looking sideways, Hunter coughed with a fist over his mouth.
“Thank you.”
“Would you like to take your medicine?” asked the concerned Madison.
“It’s alright. It’s just the coughing. I’m much better now.”
“Thank you so much for what you’ve done for us. You’re a nice person. You’re hard-working and experienced. It’s unbecoming of me to make you look after the kids. You’re still young. You should try building a career out there,” she said implicitly.
Hunter held the glass with two hands. His fingers caressed the smooth surface slowly. He lowered his gaze, and no one knew what he was thinking.
He responded after a moment of silence, “My feelings for you are troubling you.”
