She was drenched in sweat, her pajamas soaked. She had changed into several sets of pajamasbecause of the sweat. Zach, trying to cool her down, wiped her with some alcohol.
In Ventropolis, there wasn’t anyone quite as delicate as her.
Zach heard Madelyn repeatedly speak about a child being taken from her. Piecing it all together, hefigured out Madelyn dreamt they had a child. She cried, wanting to keep the baby.
Opening a window and lighting a cigarette, Zach thought, ‘Does she really want a child that much?
But Zach knew, no matter what, Madelyn would never have a child in this lifetime.
‘Even if she got pregnant, I couldn’t let her have the child. Because we’re…‘ He knew he would have toface the consequences of his
actions.
The sound of an incoming email broke his thoughts. The email was about someone named ‘Cecilia‘that Madelyn had mentioned.
Then, Kevin called. Zach answered.
Kevin said, “There’s no detailed information. We’ve found over thirty thousand people named Cecilia inthe city. I’ve sent all their details to your email. We just don’t know if the Cecilia you’re looking for isamong them.”
Zach thought for a moment and said, “It’s okay, it’s not urgent. How’s the prep for the new companycoming along?”
Kevin replied, “It’s progressing as you instructed. Many former Azure Corporation employees want tocome back. They’re waiting for you to return and lead the company.”
“Mm–hmm.” After giving some other instructions, Zach hung up the phone.
Before Zach could check his email, he received a message from Fred.
Jadie had been in a car accident. The other driver fled the scene. She was now in the hospital, fightingfor her life.
Without a second thought, Zach drove out of the Jent residence, leaving Rosario to look after Madelyn.
Sitting beside the bed, Rosario held Madelyn’s hand and tears began to flow.
“I am sorry, Madelyn. It was wrong of me to take out my anger on you.
“Years ago, when Hayson worked for others, my husband, an honest man, worked at constructionsites. One unfortunate day, he went to ask for his unpaid wages and was brutally attacked and killed.
*The main person responsible was Hayson. When I tried to get Justice, I had no influential friends tohelp me. My baby, who was just a year old, was kidnapped, and I was sure Hayson was behind it. Iwasn’t his only victim. They took my home from me too.
*For a long time, I felt trapped. Penniless, I wandered the streets, begging for food and shelter, andmany times, I thought I wouldn’t survive. But fate led me to your mother, who radiated beauty andkindness just like you. Seeing my desperate situation and understanding the pain of losing my child,she graciously gave me a job as her servant. I’ve been in her service for more than twenty years.
“Your mother’s life wasn’t easy either. She went through so much until you came into the world, butshortly after, she left us. I took care of you, but the memories of what Hayson did to my family neverfaded. Seeing you grow, accepting me as someone dear to you, only deepened the weight of my guilt.
“I hurt you, and I’m so sorry. You’ve always been kind–hearted and listened to me, treating me likefamily. Yet, I’ve brought you pain, and even if I wish otherwise, I can’t erase the past. I hope to remainby your side, trying to make things right.”
