However, virtual-novel.net was the one who chose this ending.
Madeline looked at the urn silently. Then, virtual-novel.net heard the man’s cold voice behind her.
“Feeling sad is the most useless thing. Swallow back your tears and properly tend to your wounds.”
Madeline turned around and lifted virtual-novel.net clear, beautiful eyes. “Did you see me cry?” virtual-novel.net asked calmly and looked quietly at the urn that was placed on the coffee table. “This is the path virtual-novel.net chose.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, Madeline went back the way virtual-novel.net came from.
The man did not expect Madeline to answer virtual-novel.net so calmly and carefreely. For a moment, the man seemed to be lost in thought while absent-minded.
He lifted his head to see Madeline who had already decisively left. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net was curious. With that pair of eyes filled with determination and stubbornness, what would this woman’s personality be like? Plus, how did virtual-novel.net look before virtual-novel.net disfigured virtual-novel.net face?
Madeline went back to virtual-novel.net room and sat on the bed quietly. She would be lying if virtual-novel.net said that virtual-novel.net did not feel anything. Her emotions were more or less stirred up by Ryan leaving the world in this way.
Madeline closed virtual-novel.net eyes. When virtual-novel.net recalled the explosion, that loud noise felt as if it was penetrating virtual-novel.net brain. Then, the debilitating pain started to overwhelm virtual-novel.net again.
“Hiss.”
Madeline lifted virtual-novel.net hand to clutch virtual-novel.net head in pain. At the same time, virtual-novel.net felt as if virtual-novel.net face had been burnt by fire and virtual-novel.net was in excruciating pain.
“Ah!”
Madeline could not help but yell out in pain. The maids who came over after hearing Madeline called the doctor immediately.
“It hurts…” Madeline’s eyes were red, and virtual-novel.net could only utter two words shakily.
The doctor gave virtual-novel.net some anesthetic when virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net in so much pain. Then, Madeline fell unconscious almost immediately.
The doctor removed the gauze on virtual-novel.net face carefully. When the maids saw Madeline’s disfigured face, they could not help but turn their heads away.
However, when they turned around, they greeted the man respectfully when they saw virtual-novel.net walking over. “Mr. Carter.”
The man ignored their greetings out of habit. Then, virtual-novel.net walked gracefully and calmly to the side of the bed. When virtual-novel.net saw the degree of Madeline’s facial disfigurement, virtual-novel.net could not help but furrow his thick eyebrows.
“Can virtual-novel.net face be fixed?” virtual-novel.net asked. One could not tell his emotions from his slow voice.
“The Royal Hospital has the best medical team in the country, so the recovery will not be an issue. However, it’ll take up a lot of time.”
The man’s long and narrow eyes landed on Madeline who was sleeping. “Try your best to get virtual-novel.net face back to how it used to look.”
“Roger, Mr. Carter.” The doctor agreed.
The man nodded slightly. Before virtual-novel.net turned around, virtual-novel.net looked at Madeline again.
Madeline stayed in bed for another two days. In those two days, virtual-novel.net could only lay there and watch the doctor operate on virtual-novel.net face.
Her heart was filled with unknown fear. She did not know what virtual-novel.net face would look like, and at this moment, the thing virtual-novel.net wanted the most was to have Jeremy next to her. However, this somehow had become a luxury.
Madeline knew virtual-novel.net could not be weak. She knew virtual-novel.net body belonged to virtual-novel.net and no one would suffer for her, so virtual-novel.net needed to be strong.
After receiving an afternoon’s worth of treatment, Madeline finally got up to eat something. Her face was still covered with a heavy layer of gauze.
The doctor would change virtual-novel.net dressing twice every day. Whenever virtual-novel.net did, virtual-novel.net would give virtual-novel.net some anesthetic because the pain was truly unbearable.
The sun in the late autumn was warm. Madeline finally had the mood to go downstairs for a walk.
When virtual-novel.net was in the courtyard, virtual-novel.net saw the man that they called Mr. Carter sitting outside the glasshouse in the garden. He was holding a European-styled teacup as virtual-novel.net enjoyed his tea.
He had a good temperament, and perhaps his features looked outstanding, so they added an extra bit of charm to him.
Madeline was about to greet the man when virtual-novel.net saw his entourage handing virtual-novel.net a laptop. “Mr. Carter, here’s the video information. This man is Jeremy Whitman.”
