Chapter 15

作者: Anonymous
Right before losing consciousness, Madeline saw Timothy's figure appear before her. She vaguely heard Lacey whining to him, but she didn't have the strength to speak up for herself.

Her brows were tightly furrowed, and the blood had drained from her face. The stark lights shone down on her, making her look as white as a sheet.

She reached out for Timothy, her voice shaking as she rasped, "Take me… to the hospital… now…"

He felt like a heavy boulder had crashed down on him without warning. His vision went black for a split second, and he tasted a metallic tang in his mouth. A fist seemed to clench tightly around his heart, releasing it briefly before crushing it again. He couldn't breathe.

He hastily scooped an unconscious Madeline into his arms, catching sight of the drops of blood on the floor. The sight pierced his eyes, making him want to squeeze them shut.

Grief hit him like an avalanche. For a moment, he saw the bliss that had been within reach shatter into countless pieces a

  • He Chose His Love, I Chose My Career   Chapter 33

    That night, Madeline checked into a hotel. Ellis was worried that she might have nightmares in the middle of the night, so he opted to stay by her side.His actions warmed Madeline's heart greatly.As for Timothy, he was detained in the police station. He applied for reconciliation with Madeline, but the latter didn't agree to it. After all, adults should pay the price for their actions, no matter what. Moreover, she no longer loved Timothy.On top of that, the police told Madeline a terrifying piece of news. Timothy didn't break into her apartment—he was able to open the front door with a set of spare keys simply because he was her landlord.The moment Madeline heard the news, she felt a wave of numbness washing over her. It turned out that Timothy had already begun to lay out his scheme the moment she returned to Loraynea. That was how she'd ended up walking into his trap.That thought made Madeline panic. She started suffering from insomnia every night. That was, until the rese

    A pregnant pause later, Madeline turned away from Timothy, not even wanting to spare him another look. The way she was being cold and distant toward Timothy made his heart throb in great pain.He stared at her, not knowing what to say for once.Madeline took a deep breath before saying coldly, "I've already called the police. I'm still sticking to the same perspective. Let's not meet each other anymore. You should leave while you can."Timothy panicked after hearing Madeline's words. He quickly got up and grabbed her arm. Even the way he spoke became more humble."Maddie, don't be like this. Let me apologize to you, alright? I'm sorry, Maddie. Tell me where I went wrong. Just tell me everything, okay? I'll change my ways! Please don't ignore me!"Before he could finish speaking, Madeline interjected instantly, "Things will never go back to the way they once were. Ever. That's because I no longer love you."Silence descended upon the living room for a very long time. Timothy and M

    Madeline worked fast. The next day, she requested Ellis to help her scout for a new apartment after telling him her current situation.Ellis was more than happy to help her out. For the sake of Madeline's safety, he soon rented an apartment that was located in his neighborhood. She'd be able to move into that apartment two days later.Madeline treated Ellis to dinner out of gratitude. The restaurant was only a short distance away from their apartments. After dinner, both of them chatted while walking home together.After Ellis left Madeline's neighborhood, he returned to his own apartment. The thought of living in the same neighborhood as Madeline in the future made him fantasize about life after she moved in.She'd love this place… right?Ellis moved to the couch, where he picked up his phone and began texting Madeline."Are you asleep?"At that time, Madeline was still lounging on her couch in the living room while scrolling through her phone. When she saw Ellis' text, she tap

    A few days later, Madeline walked out of the research center with the files that she had just copied. That was when a black Maybach stopped before her.She glanced at it instinctively, only to meet Timothy's deep eyes.Ugh! That man really was a pest!Madeline's sleek brows were slightly bunched up at the sight of the car that blocked her way, as well as the person sitting in said car."Get in," Timothy said coolly after opening the car door.But Madeline didn't move an inch. She asked coldly, "What do you want?"Timothy didn't say anything at all. He just stared at her. A while later, he finally repeated his words."Get. In.""If you have something to say, you can say it to me here. I don't want—"Before Madeline could finish her sentence, she felt a strong force pulling her into the car. The next thing she knew, she fell into Timothy's arms. Her body stiffened up instantly upon contact.Timothy's scent remained the same. It was familiar to her as always.But Madeline frown

    Ellis's heart sank instantly. He put down his wine glass, a look of surprise evident on his face. Almost immediately, his legs began moving on their own. Soon, he found himself chasing after Madeline.In comparison to the boisterous ballroom where the guests drank and danced, the lobby was a lot more vacant. Occasionally, a patron or two could be seen wandering down the corridor.Although the thermostat in the lobby was turned up quite high, Madeline still felt chilly thanks to her exposed shoulders. She shielded her chest with her hands that carried her purse and kept her lips pursed while making her way toward the washroom located at the end of the corridor."Madeline!" Ellis called out to her from behind.Madeline stopped in her tracks, giving Ellis a chance to reach her side in just a few steps. Naturally, he saw the ruined gown for himself.Ellis wanted to compliment Madeline's gown at first, but the sight lodged the compliment in his throat. Clearly, he was stunned by what h

    With a dark expression, Timothy stared down at the photos sent by his assistant in an office building located in Cyberton. Those photos featured Madeline and Ellis.Timothy continued scrolling through the photos, his expression blank. Finally, he stopped on a particular photo.It was a photo of Madeline and Ellis sitting in the Ferris wheel's compartment while admiring the snowy scenery. The thing was, Madeline was doing just that. Ellis, on the other hand… was staring at her.Although the photo was a little blurry, anyone could still tell that Ellis was staring at Madeline with pure affection in his eyes.This photo reminded Timothy of a particular time when Madeline had suggested riding the Ferris wheel with him when they were still dating. Unfortunately, Timothy had acrophobia, so he was unable to ride the Ferris wheel at all.Men were all prideful creatures. Timothy refused to let Madeline find out about his phobia—or worse, witness his frightened side. That was why he often u
