Filed to story: Mr Williams Madame Is Dying Novel Free Online (Madison & Hunter)
Madison looked at him. “Who’s been injured?”
If it weren’t for someone important, Hunter wouldn’t be asking her for a favor.
She started to think about everyone Hunter knew. No wonder he had been looking for her in such a hurry.
“It’s someone very important.”
Madison peeled a grape, “Tell me. How important is this person?”
Hunter pointed at the ceiling. Madison’s expression turned serious. “That man we see in the news?”
“Yes.”
“I don’t want to do it. They’ll kill me if I fail.”
Hunter was amused. “We’re not in the medieval ages anymore.”
Madison bit into the grape. It was sweet with a tinge of sourness. She liked that.
“There are a lot of renowned specialists by his side. Why would I be needed? You might trust me, but the others probably won’t. Besides, why would his death concern me? What do I stand to gain?
She wasn’t the young and naive she used to be. She was more alert and cautious than before.
It would have been better if she hadn’t gotten involved with too many troublesome matters.
“If you save his life, you’ll receive certain legal immunities and special privileges. I trust you know the benefits of those gifts.”
“What if I fail? It’s something the other renowned doctors failed to do. I’m just another woman. I probably can’t do it either.”
Hunter looked into her eyes. “But I trust that you’ll succeed.”
He licked his lips. “If you fail, I will shoulder all the responsibility. If you succeed, you’ll have helped me immensely, Madie.”
Madison knew of the rivalry between Hunter and Yale. She figured this was yet another one of their competition.
She feigned ignorance but was hesitant. Did she want to help Hunter?
After all, this matter had nothing to do with his life, just his ambition.
A man like him had all the money he could ever need, and now he’s trying to amass all the power he could muster.
She licked the grape juice on the corner of her lips and asked, “What is in it for me if I help you? Would you give me custody of Connor?”
Madison was acting like a cunning businesswoman. She did away with all her naivete and kindness. All she thought about was her personal interests and gains.
Hunter sighed. “Madie …”
All the other children grew up by her side. He had never fought with her for their custody.
Connor was responsible for inheriting the Williams family.
“I can give you anything except Connor. I know you feel bad for him. But the Williams family needs an heir. I need a successor.”
“If you don’t give him to me. I won’t help save the person. Think about it carefully.”
Hunter suddenly leaned over and started to kiss her roughly as if punishing her for not helping him.
His beloved Madie had already grown to be able to stand her ground and negotiate with him.
He didn’t want to make things difficult for Madison. So, he let go of her after a deep kiss.
“Alright, Madie. I won’t force you if you don’t want to do it. You can pretend I never brought this up tonight.”
Hunter went back to his seat.
“You’re right. I can’t change anything, no matter what I do. I’m already content that you’re willing to let me be by your side.
“I don’t want to lose that. I’m sorry for troubling you tonight.”
He picked up his jacket and walked to the door.
Madison watched as he disappeared into the snow. His silhouette seemed to be filled with a sense of desolation.
Gone was the elegance he used to have.
For some reason, Madison thought about the time Hunter saved her from the ocean.
“Don’t worry. I’ll save you.”
She didn’t know when she fell for him, but she was desperately in love with him.
From that moment on, she had always been getting the short end of the stick.
“Hey, Hunter!”
Hunter quickly stopped walking and turned around.
Madison was leaning on the door with her arms crossed.
She smiled devilishly at him. “I don’t want custody of Connor anymore. I’ll take something else instead.”
She never actually wanted to take Connor from Hunter. She wanted to see if he would sell his own son out for his ambition.
Fortunately, he didn’t do that. He didn’t hand over his son so easily.
While standing in the snow, Hunter looked at her. “Did you change your mind?”
“I don’t have anything better to do anyway. I might as well go take a look. Perhaps I might be pleasantly surprised.”
That way, she could get closer to his world.
Since Krystal slapped her and all the medical staff looked down on her, Madison had been thinking of getting a glimpse of the world they lived in.
It wasn’t because she wanted to live in their world. She just wanted to see what it was like.
She wanted to see for herself why they thought they were better than everyone else.
Hunter ran toward her and hugged her tightly. “Thank you, Madie. n
“Don’t get too excited yet. The others can’t do it. I might not be able to pull it off either. I’m just going to take a look.”
“Madie, I am already happy that you could agree to go with me. We should head over right now. Time is of the essence.”
Madison pointed at the pajamas she was wearing. “At least let me change first.”
She went back to her room and sent Colin a message. He had to take care of Jack while she wasn’t there.
Colin replied, “Madison, you’re really a slave driver.”
Madison smiled. “Thanks for this, Colin. I’ll make sure to find you a pretty wife someday.”
After she sent the texts, Madison changed into her black coat and followed Hunter into the night.
It was her second time visiting this place. The first time she visited, she came in an ambulance.
Back then, it was dark and snowing heavily. Madison didn’t get a chance to observe her surroundings.
She only remembered that it was very cold. The people were also looking at her with icy gazes.
And yet, she was back again.
This time, it was different. There were already many people waiting at the door before she got out of the car.
There were bodyguards, doctors, and a teary-eyed Krystal.
Krystal tugged on Joel’s sleeve and asked, “Would this doctor really be able to save my father, Mr. Tucker?”
Madison looked at Hunter and said coldly, “She’s here, too?”
Hunter explained, “She’s from the Heath family as well.”
“Don’t tell me she’s Mr. Heath’s daughter.”
Hunter rubbed his temples. “Their situation is complicated. But yes, she is Mr. Heath’s daughter. He is my teacher of sorts.”
Madison snorted. “So you two were childhood friends.”
Hunter was a little troubled. He didn’t know how to talk about these confidential matters.
Then, someone opened the door.
Krystal rushed over. “Doctor…”
Her expression changed when she saw that it was Vanessa in the car.
She could never forget the green-eyed girl’s scary expression, like she wanted to kill her.
The girl had an angelic face but a venomous personality.
This woman who gave birth to that girl couldn’t possibly be a good person!
“Why is it you? Why are you here?”
Joel was surprised. “You brat, what a pleasant surprise. You actually managed to bring Vanessa here.”
Joel had wanted to bring Madison here, but she was in the village, and there was no way of contacting her.
Even if he sent someone over, and she agreed to come, Mason would already be dead before she could get here. So, Joel gave up on that idea.
He didn’t expect Hunter to act on that idea and bring her here.
Joel pulled on Krystal’s hand. “Krystal, don’t be rude. She’s a very capable cardiovascular specialist. Mr. Heath will be saved with her here!”
For some reason, Krystal never liked Vanessa, even when they first met in the village. It was just her intuition.
“Sure, she can cure poisons, but can she really perform surgeries? She better not be a mediocre doctor. My father’s life is hanging in the balance. If she …”
Madison looked at Krystal calmly. “Since Ms. Heath doesn’t trust me, I might as well leave.”
She closed the door after she said that. Hunter knew Madison didn’t like Krystal.
She was free to choose if she wanted to participate in this matter. He didn’t want to force her to do anything she didn’t want to do. So, he didn’t stop her.
Joel barely managed to grab the door before Madison could close it.
“Please ignore Krystal. Mr. Heath’s life is hanging by a thread right now. Vanessa, please save him, for my sake, too.”
Madison remembered how Joel looked when he left. He was her teacher’s friend, after all.
In the end, Madison decided to get out of the car. Joel quickly followed behind her.
All of the medical staff were checking her out. Some of them even looked at her with admiration.
Some people were even talking about her. “So, she’s Vanessa? She’s younger than I imagined.”
“I didn’t expect to meet my idol!”
Their attitudes were completely different.
Even Joel was very polite before her. “Did Hunter tell you about the situation?”
“I’ve seen the medical report and X-ray images.”
“The bullet is in a very dangerous position. None of us dare to operate on him. What do you think?”
