Female Novel
Chapter 597
Nightmares wouldn't leave Madelyn alone. In her dreams, she relived everything that had happened in
her past life.
She was drenched in sweat, her pajamas soaked. She had changed into several sets of pajamas
because 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, henovelbin
figured 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 to
face 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 in
the city. I've sent all their details to your email. We just don't know if the Cecilia you're looking for is
among them."
Zach thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, it's not urgent. How's the prep for the new company
coming along?"
Kevin replied, "It's progressing as you instructed. Many former Azure Corporation employees want to
come 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, fighting
for 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 construction
sites. 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 to
help me. My baby, who was just a year old, was kidnapped, and I was sure Hayson was behind it. I
wasn'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, and
many times, I thought I wouldn't survive. But fate led me to your mother, who radiated beauty and
kindness 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, but
shortly after, she left us. I took care of you, but the memories of what Hayson did to my family never
faded. 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 like
family. Yet, I've brought you pain, and even if I wish otherwise, I can't erase the past. I hope to remain
by your side, trying to make things right."
