Filed to story: Mr Williams Madame Is Dying Novel Free Online (Madison & Hunter)
“He would wait for you throughout the whole blooming season.
“Zack and Alicia must’ve gotten much taller too. It’s my lifelong regret that I’ve never heard them call me âDad’. I sincerely love these two children, but I didn’t carry out my responsibilities as their father.
“I won’t be alive for long, and I’ve already distributed my property evenly. None of those three children will have less than the others.
“As for you, Madie, I have too many things I want to tell you…”
Many words filled the letter. In the second last page, Hunter confessed to her about Logan.
Madison’s hands trembled as they held the letter. Logan truly did exist, but he died more than four years ago. That was why Hunter chose to use his identity.
Back then, Madison hated Hunter to the bone, so Hunter had no choice but to keep protecting her with another identity.
It was no wonder that he wanted to cover her eyes that night. It was also no wonder that he knew all her preferences, and she kept feeling like she saw Hunter in him.
Madison realized that through it all, Hunter never left her.
The troubles in Madison’s heart were finally resolved. Willow was Hunter’s child, just like her siblings.
Near the end of the letter, Hunter’s handwriting grew lopsided. Madison almost couldn’t figure out what he was writing.
Madison thought of him slowly losing his senses.
Under such difficult circumstances, he wrote a sentence,” I’m sorry, Madie. If I get another chance at life, can you please let me love you again?”

As tears fell onto the letter, Madison tightened her grip on the paper. She couldn’t control her emotions at all.
“Mrs. Williams, we’ve watched everything you and Mr. Williams went through. I believe that we don’t have to tell you how much Mr. Williams loves you. You have no idea how he survived the past few years.
“He suffered a lot just to look for you. This poisoning incident isn’t the first, and it won’t be the last either. He almost died countless times.
“Yes, he did some bad things in the past. I’m not giving him an excuse, but isn’t he a victim as well? He was deceived by Ms. Williams. Ms. Williams had arranged such a flawless trap.
“Mr. Williams’s family has been broken since he was young. He never received love from his parents, and he only had Ms. Williams to rely on. He innocently believed that Ms. Williams was his everything.
“After searching for Ms. Williams for so long, that was the answer he received. Think about it. If you were in his shoes, what decision would you have made? Wouldn’t you be angry and avenge your kin?
“Moreover, Kurt’s death had always been troubling Mr.
Williams. His best friend took a bullet for him and died in front of him, after all. Kurt’s only dying wish was for Mr. Williams to take good care of Andrea.
“Mr. Williams didn’t want to get married to Andrea, but he couldn’t do anything against Ms. Davis’s insistence for him to repay Kurt’s kindness.
“She kept saying that if Kurt hadn’t taken the bullet for Mr. Williams, he wouldn’t have died. She would’ve had a family, and her children would’ve had a father.
“She kept emphasizing that Kurt wanted Mr. Williams to take care of her. What could he do under such circumstances?
“No matter how you look at it, Mr. Williams is the one suffering the most. You endured hardship, but Mr. Williams did too. He suffered the pain of his family estranging him, and his dear friend passed away as well.
“He even had to suffer for his wife and the common people too. He’s only human. He can’t possibly be free from mistakes. “Mrs. Williams, you loved him so much in the past, so why can’t you love him once again?”
Cyril’s eyes were red. “Mr. Williams always thinks about you and misses you. He only ever has eyes for you, and you’re the only person in his heart.
“You wanted to leave, so he let you go even if he had to endure the suffering every single day.
“You have your children and your career, but what does Mr. Williams have? Countless enemies, responsibilities and burdens that threaten to crush him, and a life filled with mortal danger.
“No matter how hard it is, he still walks the path all alone…”
Madison recalled Hunter’s figure when he left last night. It looked desolate and pitiful.
“He wasn’t quite conscious when he arrived in the village. He had no idea how he got in, but now, he has left the village alone. What if he’s already-“
Cyril’s voice trailed off. Madison gripped the letter tightly. “He won’t die. He’s Hunter Williams, after all.”
She wiped her tears. “Get out and continue the treatment for your leg.”
“What about you?”
“I’ll look for him.”
Madison went back to her room. After changing her clothes, she headed east. The path was the easiest to walk on, but the miasma was too strong there.
Sadly, Willow wasn’t with her. She couldn’t communicate with animals.
Now, Scarlet Lily was the only one she could get help from.
Scarlet Lily was the large snake that appeared outside the house on the day Madison gave birth to Willow.
Wendy said that Scarlet Lily was a snake with a soul, and it was also the guardian of the village. It had lived for around a century, but no one knew how old it was.
It was venomous, but it never hurt anyone. When the villagers saw it, they wouldn’t hurt it either.
After Willow’s birth, it came by quite often. One day, Willow touched it, but it never expressed any form of aggressiveness. It even behaved in a friendly way.
Perhaps because Madison was close to Willow, Scarlet Lily slowly became familiar with her as well.
Holding the bathrobe Hunter had worn before, Madison asked the snake to help her locate him. Scarlet Lily took Madison north.
There was a cliff in the north!
Madison couldn’t believe that Hunter had chosen this path. Even the villagers didn’t dare go there. Back then, Isabella’s husband took a fall there, which crippled him. Didn’t Hunter care about his own life at all?
As Madison stood on the cliff, the wind tousled her hair. Below her, the clouds and mist blocked her view, so she couldn’t make out any figures at all.
Madison could understand why Hunter would choose this path. It was dangerous, but at least it was manageable as long as there was no rain.
This path was the only one without poison or wild beasts. The only danger was the weather, but he had experience in rock climbing.
But it was too dangerous for him to go down blindly without proper equipment. If he were even a little distracted, he would fall to certain death!
“Mrs. Williams, are you sure that Mr. Williams took that path?”
Madison nodded. “His scent was cut off here. Look, there’s also a length of rope. He must have made it before he left.”
“I’ll go look for him right now.”
“No, you’re not as familiar with this mountain as I am.
Moreover, you have to get acupuncture for your leg every day, and you’re banned from any vigorous activities.
“You don’t want to be crippled for life, do you?”
Cyril started, “So you mean…”
Madison patted him on the shoulder. “I’ll do it. It’s my territory, after all. I can’t let him get in danger.”
Moreover, she had already decided to leave soon. She was going to leave the mountain as well.
“Please take good care of Madam Wendy.”
“You can’t do this, Mrs. Williams. It’s too dangerous.”
“Just take care of yourself. I’ve done many dangerous things in the past, so what difference can one more make?”
With that, Madison used Hunter’s rope as she found a foothold before slowly descending. Hunter probably left sometime near dawn. If not, it would’ve been too dark and dangerous for him.
It had probably only been about two hours since he left. If she quickened her pace, she could catch up to him.
This wasn’t Madison’s first time taking this path.
Back then, when she wanted to train, she made full use of this cliff.
She kept recalling how the nurses and doctors looked at her when Hunter was sent into the emergency room back then. Krystal’s slap also told Madison that she didn’t belong in this world and that she was an outsider.
Madison was determined. Before giving birth, she worked hard to learn medicine. After she recovered from giving birth, she started physical fitness training.
After her illness was cured, her current strength was on par with a man’s.
Even Cyril was shocked when he saw her flitting along the rocky cliff with great agility. He could see that other than gaining medical skills, Madison had also undergone other changes.
Madison’s figure was quickly shrouded by the mist and clouds. The weather was decent today, so there was no risk of a landslide.
Perhaps because she was progressing too smoothly, not long after she had that thought, the weather started to change. Dark clouds loomed over the area.
The rain in the mountains would come and go in the blink of an eye. A few raindrops had already started to fall.
Oh no!
Every time it rained, the cliff would become very slippery. A landslide could happen at any moment.
She had just descended, so she could make it in time if she started going back up now. If not, she would also be in danger soon.
But when Madison thought about Hunter’s forlorn figure when he left, she gritted her teeth and continued making her way down.
There was an uninhabited forest under the cliff. Without any locals guiding him, he might get trapped there.
The raindrops grew larger, and the rope was already exhausted. She had to continue her journey on her own.
She wasn’t well-equipped, and many of the rocks had moss growing on them. They would become very slippery as soon as they got wet.
Madison hadn’t found Hunter yet, but she had already found herself in trouble.
The rain kept pouring, and the mountain was enveloped in clouds and mist. She could barely see anything.
Every step was riddled with danger. Madison found a slightly wider platform to stand on. She decided to continue her descent after the rain let up.
The rain in the mountains usually didn’t last long, but today, the elements were working against her. The rain didn’t show any signs of stopping, and it even grew heavier.
Madison didn’t dare to stay there, so she had no choice but to find her way.
If she delayed any longer, she would die here.
Even though Madison was very familiar with the terrain, she had set out in such a hurry that she didn’t bring all the necessary equipment. There was no signal in the mountains either.
She was now stuck between a rock and a hard place. She could not turn back now.
The rocks were slippery, and she slid downward countless times. Fortunately, she was experienced enough that she could grab onto some branches along the way when she was falling.
Because of the forceful tugging, her hands were covered in blood. It was a terrifying sight.
It truly wasn’t her day today. She kept encountering misfortunes one after the other.
Standing on a small tree, Madison paused and took a few breaths. She opened her palms and glanced at her gruesome hands. Of course, it hurt a lot, but she didn’t have time to lament it.
Her top priority was to get down the cliff and locate Hunter.
The longer the time passed, the further she would be from Hunter. The forest was quite complicated, after all. They were in a place where they had no way of contacting each other.
Other than a dagger and a gun, Madison didn’t have any supplies.
She realized that she was more worried about Hunter than she imagined.
People often didn’t mean what they said. She claimed to hate him, but she was worried about him more than anyone else. She didn’t even bring proper equipment before departing, which was already a huge mistake.
Gritting her teeth, Madison continued her journey. Even though there were a few minor episodes along the way, there was, fortunately, a very long vine in the last stretch of her journey. It allowed her to land safely.
As the storm poured, the ancient forest looked extra creepy.
When it was sunny, the sunlight above her would be blocked. Now that it was raining, the place was even darker.
If the sun was out, she would still be able to figure out the direction based on the shadow cast by the trees. But now, Madison was in a terrible situation.
