Leia wondered if she was seeing things, but she felt as if the masked woman in the white coat in front of her had a familiar silhouette.
Reality had proven that regardless of love or hate, she would still be able to recognize that person in a dense crowd.
But Leia soon dismissed that thought. How could Madison have anything to do with Louis?
Madison couldn’t possibly be here.
“Thank you.”
Leia quietly followed Madison, unaware of Madison’s raging hatred.
Various past events came to Madison’s mind.
She thought of Hunter’s cruel gaze, the Evans family going bankrupt, Jeff’s accident, Jodie’s death, her own kidnapping, and the time when Snowball fell off the roof and died right in front of her.
Madison had never forgotten any of those incidents, not even for a day.
The culprit was right behind her, and she never once gave up on the idea of killing Leia.
After so many years, she finally had this opportune chance. She wanted to kill Leia so badly!
The thought screamed its presence in Madison’s mind, and her blood was boiling.
Louis’ voice rang out. “You’re here.”
It was only then that Madison came to her senses. She shouldn’t do anything for now.
At the very least, she couldn’t do it with Louis around. Leia was an important test subject of his, so if she died, he wouldn’t be able to collect data.
Madison knew that she couldn’t provoke Louis.
“Mr. Rivera.” Leia hastily stepped forward.
“This is my assistant, Elise. You’ve probably met her already. From now on, she’ll be conducting your checkups.”
Louis had an indifferent look on his face as he spoke coldly.
“I see.”
She looked down at Madison’s hand, which was holding a notebook.
Madison’s wrist was smooth and fair, and there were no scars in sight.
It was only then that Leia relaxed. She was just overthinking it. This woman wasn’t Madison.
Madison ordered coldly, “Lie down. I’m going to examine you.”
Leia was about to lie down when her phone rang.
Glancing at the phone number, Leia said, “Sorry, I have a call to answer.”
“Go ahead.”
Her mind buzzed for a moment. Why was Avery here?
When Leia spotted Avery, she subconsciously tried to escape, but Avery had already noticed her.
“Begonia.”
The word drifted toward Leia in the night breeze.
The woman’s voice on the other end of the line sounded a little panicky. “Did someone approach you?
Who are you with right now?”
“I’ll contact you later.” Leia hung up and quickly ran away. She was given mechanical legs, so she ran faster than a normal human.
Avery wasn’t feeling well, so he only ran after Leia for a little while before slumping onto the floor, panting.
Unexpectedly, Leia turned back and ran back to him. She looked at him anxiously. “Are you okay?”
She had noticed him leaning against the flowerbed, so she thought that something happened to him.
Avery gripped her wrist. “Got you, Begonia.”
Begonia was Leia’s alias in Peace’s Embrace.
Avery’s voice was as gentle as always, and Leia had mixed feelings about that.
No one knew this, but Avery was the only salvation she had in her life.
Back then, when she ran away from the poor and desolate village, she encountered Avery.
He was the one who brought her back to Peace’s Embrace for proper education.
He had allowed her to undergo surgery to recover, and he had taught her many things.
Later on, she followed Toxic Hive as it broke away from Peace’s Embrace, but she had never forgotten him.
He had given her a new life when she was at her worst moments.
“What exactly are you trying to do?”
Avery was gasping for breath, but the smile remained on his face. “Can we talk?”
She couldn’t reject him.
Avery held onto the flowerbed for support as he got up, but he never let go of Leia’s hand.
He pulled Leia along with him as he walked toward his room.
Under the glow of the streetlights, Leia looked down at their linked hands.
In an instant, a blush tinted her cheeks, and her heart raced.
She was holding Avery’s hand!
This was the first time Avery had held her hand and also the first time she entered his personal space.
The room was simple and brightly lit, and it resembled Avery’s gentle demeanor.
After closing the door to make sure that Leia wouldn’t run away, Avery let go of her and apologized.
Then, he asked Leia to take a seat. “Do you still drink strawberry milk?”
Leia’s face turned redder. When he took her in back then, she had insisted on drinking strawberry milk every day.
“You remembered.”
“Yes.”
Avery took a carton of strawberry yogurt from the fridge, shaking it. “I don’t have milk with me. Will yogurt do?”
Leia accepted it with both hands, and she felt her heart turning warm. “Thank you.”
“Since you liked it in the past, I got used to the strawberry flavor as well. By the way, I forgot to ask, but have you been well these years?”
Leia pursed her lips. “Actually, I’m not doing very well.”
If Avery kept an eye on her, he would have known that her biological brother had broken her limbs and grounded her.
“I’ve heard some things about you. Begonia, you’re a good child. I don’t understand why you chose to follow Toxic Hive instead of staying in Peace’s Embrace.”
Leia looked at his handsome face.
To her, he was like a deity.
“I don’t want to talk about the past too much.” She found an excuse to avoid the question.
“Begonia, why did you do those things? Hunter is your brother, so why did you hurt your sister-in-law?”
Avery’s gaze was gentle as always, but there was a hint of judgment in it.
Leia could remain indifferent when faced with anyone but Avery. She panicked, for she didn’t want to lie to him.
“I’m jealous of her. She had taken away all my brother’s love.”
“That’s not it.” Avery was sure of it.
Leia suddenly remembered that the man in front of her wasn’t as gentle as he seemed.
He was the head of his family, and he was also a shrewd businessman.
He saw through her disguises at a glance.
He sounded like he was pleading with her, and Leia felt even more conflicted.
Avery approached Leia. “I still remember back when I just took you in. You were so skinny and small…”
“Enough, Mr. Avery. This is a private matter, and I don’t want to talk about it. “
“Was it because you didn’t want to talk about it, or you couldn’t? Begonia, someone is giving you orders, right? Tell me. Who is that person?
“For whose sake can you go so far that you would even sacrifice your brother’s happiness and separate his family?”
Leia kept backing away from Avery. His eyes seemed to peer into the depths of her heart.
She shoved Avery away. Before leaving, she said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Avery. I’ll repay your kindness with my whole life, but I cannot tell you anything about this matter.”
Avery looked in the direction she left. His gentle gaze clouded over.
When Leia came to a deserted place, she dialed the number again. The woman’s anxious voice rang out.
“Who was that man who talked to you just now?”
“He’s Louis’ assistant.” Leia didn’t tell the truth.
“Just an assistant?”
“Who else did you think he could be? By the way, what was it that you wanted me to do?”
“Figure out if Madison is with Louis. If so, kill her at all costs!”
Leia repeated softly, “At all costs.”
“Yes! This is the best chance.”
While she was speaking, Madison’s voice rang out in the distance. “Begonia, how much longer are you going to take?”
Leia hung up again as she walked toward Madison.
She stood alone in the night, and the glow of the lamp illuminated her mask. Leia couldn’t see Madison’s expression, but she was certain that Madison was smiling.
Madison looked like a cunning fox as she stood there with a folder in her hands.
Leia walked past Madison, saying, “You’ve changed a lot.”
Of course, she had changed a lot. She no longer had fear or panic in her gaze, only determination for the future.
Now that Leia had learned about Madison’s identity, she wouldn’t let Madison examine her.
She didn’t forget that rainy night many years ago when she had almost injected Madison with poison.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Rivera. Something urgent cropped up, so let’s set the examination aside for now. We’ll proceed with the transaction.”
