Chapter 104
The corners of the diary scraped against the unhealed wound on her face and there was a burst of sharp pain before blood began oozing again.
Jeremy did not notice, however. He brushed past her shoulder and his broad and powerful shoulders hit Madeline’s thin body and in an instant, she fell down beside the bed. In front of her, was the open diary that Jeremy had dropped. Madeline looked down and she saw the words she had written. “Jez, finally I get to see you again…”
Madeline looked at the words written on the diary page and laughed at herself. Laughing and laughing until tears began to run out of her eyes unconsciously.
The warm water dripped past the bleeding wound, along the curve of the chin, and finally, mixed with a drop of blood, dripped onto the sentence in the diary.
Jez…
Her former Jez had died in her heart.
That gentle sunshine, the boy who had said he had wanted to be with her forever, had completely died in her heart…
——
Some pus developed in the wound on Madeline’s face and so, she had to go to the hospital.
Right after treating the wound and as she was about to leave, two young nurses hurried past Madeline.
“Mrs. Montgomery will be operated on soon, but the hospital’s Rh blood has been completely used up. If something happens during the surgery, who’s gonna take care of it?”
“An appendicitis surgery does not usually cause heavy bleeding unless there is an accident but I don’t think Mrs. Montgomery would be so unlucky! And I think her face has gone blue from the pain, she has to be operated on immediately!”
Madeline’s pace fluttered suddenly and she hurriedly caught up with the two nurses. “May I ask if the Mrs. Montgomery you mentioned is called Eloise Patton?”
“That’s right! Who are you?” The nurse looked over Madeline a few times. “If you need anything, please head to the front desk. We are busy here!”
The nurse hurried away after saying that.
Madeline turned around without thinking and ran to the blood transfusion point where she heard Meredith’s sharp scolding from a distance.
“What kind of hospital is this? Why are you always running out of blood! Last time it was my son, this time it’s my mother! Are you deliberately targeting me!”
She questioned the nurse. The nurse lowered her head. Her eyes were red and she dared not say a word as she was scolded.
Accompanying was Meredith’s mother, Rose. No, it should be said that she was her adoptive mother because Meredith had been confirmed to be Eloise’s biological daughter three years ago.
Meredith’s expression was dark. She looked like a shrew with her teeth and claws.
“You better pray that the operation will go smoothly. If my mother meets any accidents during the operation, I will definitely have my fiancé sue your hospital till bankruptcy!”
“M-Ms. Montgomery, you are Mrs. Montgomery’s biological daughter, in fact, as long as you have a blood transfusion…”
“What transfusion! Meredith’s period is not over yet, how can she transfuse her blood!” Rose became angered like a devil.
Hearing this, Madeline suddenly thought of the time when Jackson had needed a blood transfusion. Meredith had also said that she could not do a blood transfusion as it was her period.
It has been more than half a month, but her period is not over yet?
Madeline suddenly understood something. Meredith was not having her period. She just did not want to do a blood transfusion at all.
One was her own son and the other was her real mother yet she was so cold-blooded that she did not want to save either.
After Madeline had watched Meredith and Rose leave while still cursing, she trotted over without hesitation. “Nurse, Mrs. Montgomery should be able to use my blood. Please check it for me immediately, thank you.”
The nurse who crying after being scolded heard Madeline’s words and instantly, it raised her spirits.
Before long, Madeline had contributed another 500c.c of blood.
She did not leave immediately but she was waiting for news of the operation. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Appendicitis required a minor operation and there were usually no complications, but Madeline still felt uneasy.
She did not understand why she was so worried about Eloise Patton as if she had a kind of intimacy, a longing to approach Elois in her heart.
Just as she recalled to ask about the operation, Madeline suddenly saw Meredith and Rose hurriedly running in the direction where she was.
Just when Madeline thought that the foster mother and daughter were going to trouble her, a gust of wind seemed to pass by Madeline. A man had walked past her.
“Dad, you are finally here!” Meredith shouted at the man.
