When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1183 A Mistake

“It was a mistake for us to be together. He killed my entire family. I never wanted to marry him. All I ever wanted was to leave him, Madeline said.

Upon hearing these words, Charlotte gaped incredulously.

This was straight out of a novel–how could Darren kill an entire family?NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Madeline didn’t go into detail as if she didn’t want to talk about the past.

Ceci, this is all I can tell you. I’m sorry. Today, when I heard Lucille say that your ex–husband is Nathaniel. I thought you already knew I was Darren’s wife and that you were being controlled by him to spy on me. That was why I ran away.”

Cecilia finally understood the situation. “I’m glad we came to clear things up. Otherwise, I would’ve ended up as the

Madeline immediately shook her head.

“No, whether you’re controlled by Darren or not. I’m still grateful to you. If it weren’t for you, Amy and I would’ve been in serious trouble long ago.”

Madeline paused for a moment. “I just don’t want to go back to Darren. That’s why I ran away. I’ve already made up my mind. Once I’m able to stand on my own. I’ll come back with my child to thank you.”

Cecilia felt a bit relieved hearing these words. At least her goodwill hadn’t been wasted.

“So, what’s your plan now?”

Madeline was silent for a moment. “I’m planning to look for a job tomorrow.”

“You haven’t even fully recovered from childbirth, and you have to take care of a baby. How can you find a job?” Charlotte couldn’t help but interject.

Madeline was serious, her eyes filled with determination. “It doesn’t matter. Whether it’s washing dishes or scrubbing floors, I can do it. The baby will be a month old in a few days. I can carry the baby on my back while I work.”

Hearing her speak like this, both Cecilia and Charlotte felt Darren must have treated her terribly.

Otherwise, why would a woman still recovering from childbirth be willing to carry her baby while doing hard labor?

“You should come back with me for now. In a few days, you can start working with Lottie, Cecilia suggested.

Madeline immediately hugged her. “You’re not mad at me anymore?”

Cecilia felt a litle helpless. “Didn’t we clear things up? But if this happens again…”

“There won’t be a next time,” Madeline promised.

However, Cecilia had another concern. “But I need to tell you this first. I suspect Darren has already found out that you’re staying at my house.”

Madeline slowly let go of Cecilia.

“What do you mean?”

“Think about it. With Darren’s status and resources, do you Cecilia countered.

you really th

think it would take him long to find out where you are?”

She thought that Madeline must have been too sheltered growing up.

“Then why hasn’t he come for me?” Madeline was puzzled.

In the past, whenever she ran away from the Faust residence, Darren would find her and take her back in no time.

“I’m not sure either,” Cecilia replied.

Charlotte couldn’t hold back any longer. “Maybe it’s because he doesn’t want you and the child anymore?”

This girl..

Cecilia shot her a glare.

Madeline didn’t mind. “I’d be glad if he didn’t want me and the child.”

“Let’s not talk about it anymore. It’s getting late. We should head back,” Cecilia said after glancing at the time.

It was almost ten o’clock.

Nicholas‘ wedding was set to take place the following day.

“Okay”

After all the trouble, the three women headed back.

At this moment, at Rainsworth Manor, Nathaniel was feeling uneasy.

Cecilia hadn’t come to see him tonight, and he couldn’t figure out what had kept her so busy.

Is it because tomorrow is Nicholas‘ wedding? Is she unhappy about him getting married, so she doesn’t want to see me?
