“Sorry for the trouble.”
âYou don’t have to be so courteous, Ms. Evans. I’m very close with Logan. Besides, I get paid helping him take care of you. It’s a good thing for me too.”
Madison took her phone out and called Vince. She needed some answers.
âMadison, how are you? Are you okay? Logan contacted me out of the blue last night. I didn’t know why something so horrible would happen. It was so scary,” Vince said in a gentle tone.
Was it really Vince who helped her out?
“How did you manage to come up with so much money?”
“I borrowed some from the Tuckers. Money doesn’t mean much compared to your safety.”
Madison frowned. “Give me your account number. I’ll transfer you the money in a bit.”
“You’re in Aldenvine now. Hunter will know if you move the money.”
“I don’t care about that. I can’t hide forever. I can’t just let you spend so much money for my sake. It’s not a couple hundred dollars we’re talking about.”
That was a huge amount of cash. It could cause Vince’s family business to become illiquid. Or if he had to borrow the money from loan sharks, he would incur a lot of debt based on interest alone.
Besides, Vince took care of the expenses in the six months she was recovering from chemotherapy. He also arranged everything for the cruise back to Aldenvine.
They were not even relatives. He was also not running a charity. Madison had been feeling bad about relying on him so much.
“It’s fine, really. Your safety comes first.”
“Give me your account number, or I’ll just bring the money to your house.”
Vince sighed. “Alright, I give up. I’ll send you my account number in a bit. Take care of yourself.”
“Will do. Vince, thanks for your help in the past year,” Madison said sincerely.
If not for him, she wouldn’t be able to get to where she was. She also wouldn’t have been reunited with her daughter.
Compared to the life filled with despair that she previously led, she was already in a much better place.
Vince was at a loss for words. He didn’t know how to explain his situation. âYou don’t have to thank me. I didn’t do much. Anyway, stay safe out there.”
Vince’s palms were covered in sweat when he hung up.
Irene leaned over and asked, “How was it? Did Madison get suspicious?”
“I don’t think so. After all, she probably doesn’t know who else could’ve helped her other than me.”
Irene sighed in resignation. “I feel bad about lying to Madison. She’ll be so sad if she finds out we lied to her.
That damned Hunter. How did he find out Madison was still alive?
“Thinking about it sends shivers down my spine. That man is too manipulative. He actually held a funeral and kneeled before the grave for an entire day just to convince Madison he thought she was dead. I don’t know if it’s a good thing or not to be loved by such an obsessive man.”
“Love has always been a double-edged sword. In moderation, it brings happiness. If not, it’d be hell. It’s our fault for failing to protect Madison. Now, we can only do as he says.
Vince was dumbfounded when he received the call in the morning. He thought they had fooled everyone, but Hunter had known about what they were doing all along.
“But he isn’t taking a forceful approach this time. I hope he has really learned his lesson and will treat Madison better.”
Vince sighed. “I hope so too.”
Then, he took out his phone to contact Hunter and tell him about Madison’s demand.
Hunter was relatively courteous when he talked to Vince. He provided Vince with an account number. Then, he thanked him sincerely.
Irene sighed in relief and scratched her head. “So this is why everything has been going our way this year. My mom’s business has been doing very well. She received several large orders. I thought it was just pure
Vince also thought about his relatives who were in Arlandia. Especially his father, who had called him several times recently. He seemed to be in high spirits.
Hunter was a great ally to have but a terrifying enemy to go up against.
At the moment, Vince and Irene’s hands were tied. They could only pray for Madison’s safety.
Hunter was on an unnamed island near Aldenvine.
Other than to soothe Madison’s emotions, there was another reason why Hunter left her side. He had a lot of work that needed his attention. So, he was busy taking care of that.
Kelvin took off his mask. He had a bright smile on his face.
“I bet that man must have seen the state Cherno is in by now. The ship is completely worthless now. I destroyed everything I could get my hands on,” Kelvin said..
“The boat’s value isn’t the most important thing. This incident has caused him to get on the bad side of everyone on the ship. Some of them are bound to go after him.
“Even if he manages to get another ship up and running, the customers won’t trust him again. His business is completely ruined.”
Kelvin smiled and said, “We spent a few hundred million dollars to cause billions in damages. It’s totally worth it!
The most important thing is I don’t like that brat. He’s always plotting against you. This should humble him a bit. I hope he learns his lesson.”
Hunter wasn’t as optimistic. He looked into the distance and said, “He’s not so weak that he would back down with just this. He’ll definitely try to retaliate.
Kelvin’s smile faded. “Mr. Williams, are you saying he might come after you?”
“He would’ve guessed my identity because of Madie. Do you really think he wouldn’t do anything after I caused him such great losses? He’ll definitely try to hit me where it hurts”
“Mr. Williams, Mrs. Williams is your Achilles heel. He’ll try to hurt her.”
Hunter had a troubled expression on his face. “Back then, I married her in secret because I was afraid my identity would be exposed and it’d bring trouble to her doorstep.
“In the end, her identity was still exposed. Those people even hold some power over her. Other than the enemies she already has, my identity will bring her the most danger.”
“What should we do, Mr. Williams?”
Hunter stood at the edge of the cliff with his hands behind his back. His eyes were filled with determination as he listened to the waves crashing against the reefs.
“If Madie is my weakness, it would mean I’m still too weak. That’s why those people could threaten me with her safety. I need to become even more powerful and destroy everyone who would be a threat to her.”
In the distance, everyone was celebrating. The cash they took amounted to several billion dollars. They were partying while surrounded by mountains of cash. They were making it rain on the island.
A slender person walked over to Hunter. Kelvin and Brent nodded at him as a greeting and walked away.
Hunter turned around and saw Henry’s elegant face.
“You’re giving me over a billion dollars just like that?”
The gentle and noble demeanor was long gone from his face. The top two buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned, making him seem like more of a player.
“It’s nothing. You really pulled through for me by sending those men at a moment’s notice. I wouldn’t know what to do without them. Is it okay that they’ve now been exposed?”
“Why would it be a problem? You know how I roll. We’d hit a location and move to another one. We’re just a tiny operation, unlike your establishment. I haven’t been to your place in a long time.
“Are you planning for world domination? I heard from my brother that you created several powerful weapons two years ago.”
Henry had been to Hunter’s military base several times. He was awestruck every time. It didn’t look like a
“I’m just trying to protect myself.”
“You’re lucky you’re so good at making money. Or else you wouldn’t be able to keep such a huge operation afioat.”
Hunter rubbed his temples with a fatigued expression. “These things aside, has your woman settled down yet? I hope you won’t make the same mistakes I made.”
Henry’s expression changed slightly. “Don’t worry. I’m a very nice person. When it comes to treating women, I’m usually…”
His phone rang before he could finish his sentence.
“It’s me.”
“It’s Ms. Hilton. She’s about to jump off a building, Mr. Synder.”
“Stop her! I’ll come back right now.”
Henry’s words were proven to be wrong almost as soon as he said them.
He cleared his throat and said, “I have some business to tend to. I’ll be going back. Feel free to call me if you need anything.
Looking at him leaving frantically, Hunter called out, “Everly is a very headstrong woman. You should tone down your temper a little, or you’ll regret it when you end up like me.”
“I know that.”
The world was silent once again. Only the sound of nature could be heard.
Hunter lay down on the grass and looked up at the starry night sky.
“Madie…” He murmured.
If he could start over, he would never treat her the way he had.
People like him had all the power and authority. They always got their way. But in the end, he couldn’t even keep the woman he loved by his side.
It was laughable, but such was life. Even if one was rich and powerful, not everything would go one’s way.
On the top floor of the Imperial Strait Building, a man was smashing the entire tea set before him.
His assistant stood before him and reported fearfully, “The estimated losses from this incident is at 18.7 billion dollars.”
The cost of acquiring the cruise ship and its furnishings was over five billion dollars. The assets on the ship, including weapons, medical equipment, goods, and antiques, were worth nearly 20 billion dollars.
“Other than the monetary losses, we also lost our customers.”
“Where’s Flora?”
“We didn’t find her body on the ship. She must’ve been taken. Many of your customers are asking for compensation. The total amount is also in the billions. What should we do, Boss?”
The man was furious. “Ignore them.”
“But won’t we incur the wrath of the masses if we don’t compensate them?”
“Do you think they would board one of our ships again even if we paid them?”
The assistant fell silent for a bit before saying, “No, they won’t.”
“Most of the people who board the Cherno are a sanctimonious lot. Would they really come to us to demand compensation? The people demanding compensation are mostly gangsters.
“Those people get their money illegally. They won’t be satisfied even if we pay them. So, why should we waste the money and effort on them? It’s not like they’d do business with us again.
The assistant closed the folder and said, “We’ve suffered heavy losses this time, Boss. What should we do?”
The man looked at a photo of a woman before him and replied, “She’s the one who caused this incident. We’ll end it with her.”
Madison was wearing a thick down jacket as she walked with Alicia in the commercial district.
The winter in Aldenvine came early, as usual. It would snow half of the time during winter. The snowflakes danced in the sky. It looked pretty and romantic.
Alicia had a scarf wrapped around her neck, and she was wearing a hat. She reached out to catch a
“Mom, snow. Pretty.”
Madison looked at her tenderly. The lights on the street were shining brightly. Alicia smiled as she walked in the snow. Everything seemed perfect.
In the past few years, Madison would be depressed whenever she thought about her child. But her daughter had finally returned to her side. Alicia’s presence gave her hope for the future. Her life wasn’t gloomy anymore
Christmas songs were being played on the streets. Madison was amazed by how quickly time passed. Another year had passed, and Christmas was just around the corner.
Madison had booked a slot with the bank. Luckily, Hunter didn’t terminate her account after her faked death.
All the money was still in her account.
