Xavier's POV.Mom had planned dinner after leaving the court, seeing Madison leave the court with Adrian made my blood boil, I was about to enter the car when I received a message from an unknown number."There is more to the story, meet me inside your office at the hospital now," I read the message on my phone."Mom can everyone take your car? I want to give something to someone," I put my phone at the back of my pocket."Who do you want to meet urgently?" Lexie eyes showed she was suspicious of me."An old friend," I smiled and handed Ryan to Lexie, I entered the car and drove straight to the hospital.I didn't know what this person was trying to say or who this person was, I opened the door to meet a lady sitting on my chair in my office."How did you get in here?" That was the first thing I needed to know because no one except me can enter my office."This," the lady showed me my office card, "have a seat and the name is well……. You don't need to know that."Can't believe this wom
Madison POV"Stop! Stop! She was injected that day at the hospital," Lexie yelled."What day at the hospital? What the fuck are you spewing right now!" I hit the table with the baseball bat and Lexie screamed.So she wasn't going to talk that easily, "Start talking immediately!" I used the baseball bat to break another thing in the office."It...it…was" Lexie began to shed crocodile tears and ignored it."I'm losing my motherfucking patience, it was what!""It was in the hospital, you were admitted and she fainted out of exhaustion and that was when it was injected into her along with drugs," Lexie explained, shaking out of fear by the corner of the room.I knew for certain that the injection would have worn out, but there was more to the story, "it's been long, how did she get tested today?" Lexie kept me quiet, "how did she get tested for drugs!"Lexie flinched, "I went to her house to see her and I mixed them in her vitamin water.""Have you gone mad! Ryan could have drank from tha
Madison's POVI struggled to open my eyes as the brightness of the room blinded them, my body felt stiff on the bed and one of my hands was handcuffed to the bed."You are awake," Xavier stood up and touched my face."Hmmm," Xavier helped me sit straight on the bed as I rested my back against the bed head."Oh, I'm really sorry about what happened to you, I got this for your health," Lexie stood by the side of my bed and handed me a box of orange juice but I could see she was trying to show me something on her hand, I wanted to ignore but my eyes saw it.I looked at Xavier's eyes for answers then my eyes went to his fingers too and I saw the same ring, they both had the same rings on their fingers.A part of me didn't want to know but another wanted to understand, "Is this some kind of engagement ring?"Lexie started blushing, "Oh no it's not, it's actually,""Yes it's an engagement ring," Xavier interrupted Lexie.I wanted to believe badly but I couldn't because Lexie's eyes held so
Madison's POVI arrived at the hospital and went to see my son. I hadn't seen him for a week now, I stood outside and watched Ryan sleeping peacefully and it hurt to see so many machines and wires attached to him."Don't worry, he will be okay," Adrian reassured me and I nodded my head.I rushed to the door as I saw Xavier coming out of the room, "How is Ryan's health?""Ryan is doing okay for now and I have good news, Ryan has a donor," Xavier delivered the news to me, my heart knew no bounds as I jumped on Xavier's body out of excitement."I'm sorry," I moved back from Xavier as I pushed my hair backward."It's no problem," Xavier flashed me a smile."How is my sister doing these days?" Adrian asked Xavier, I wonder why Adrian would be asking such a question, how was Xavier supposed to know the answer to that?"I need to talk to you two about something," I said before Xavier could answer Adrian's ridiculous question."Sure go ahead," Xavier seems excited to leave behind the conversa
Xavier's POVThe caller clicked his tongue, "That shouldn't be the question, Xavier, you got it wrong, you got it very wrong" The caller laughed, "But I will give you the answer but don't be disappointed and there is no going back."Madison nodded her head in agreement, "Okay," I answered."No one pushed Madison down the stairs," The caller laughed, "She fell by herself, and here is the evidence."A message entered Madison's phone and it was a video from the caller, we played it to see what it was.In the video Madison was going down the stairs when Lexie called out to her, the moment Madison turned, she slipped down the stairs and fell, while Lexie screamed, brought out her phone, made a phone call panicking, and ran away from the scene when she heard footsteps."Your question should have been who cut the chandelier and trust me you would have been shocked and Xavier you were just trying to clear your wife's name not help Madison," The caller's voice was filled with amusement.Madiso
Madison's POVI stood and watched as Ryan was being rolled to the theater, different doctors and nurses were following him including Lexie. I didn't know Lexie was going to be part of the surgery."Where is Xavier?" I asked Lexie before she entered the operating room."He will be here soon," Lexie nodded her head as she entered the theater.Lexie is a neurosurgeon, what will she be doing in a cardiology surgery, I wonder what's going on.I waited anxiously as the surgery was about to begin but Xavier hadn't arrived. I looked up to see the surgery had begun but I was sure Xavier didn't pass my front. I ran to get the board of surgery.I used my hands to scroll through the list till my hands stopped on the room Ryan was in. I Lost my balance when I saw who was operating on Ryan and who was supervising."Anita William is operating on my Ryan right now, we need to stop her," I clutched onto Adrian's shirt."Xavier wouldn't do this, something is wrong," Adrian muttered under his breath.Ad
Madison's POV"Change the name of the surgical head to Xavier William and I will take responsibility for anything that happens now in this room" I held Adrian in his hands, holding on to his shirt tightly, "Xavier can't perform that surgery.""Trust Xavier he can do it, just watch and trust the process," Adrian reassured me, I stared in disbelief, Adrian and Xavier didn't look like they were having any disagreement.I know Xavier wants the surgery to go well but he is injured and if anything happens to Ryan I would never be able to forgive him.I watched the process from the screen and each time Xavier's hands shook or any surgical material fell to the ground, my heart immediately cut.I don't think he can do it, it was a surgery of four hours but it's More than four hours now, everyone paused in the room for a second looking at the heart monitor before they began running up and down.I picked the remote control from the table and zoomed in on the heart monitor, "Oh my God," I put my
Madison's POVI ran from the bathroom and opened the door in a rush, "What did you say about Ryan?"Adrian entered the room, "I thought you would never open the door," a playful smile appeared on his face."I asked what you said about Ryan?" I repeated myself not being in the mood to play.Adrian made himself comfortable on my bed while looking around my room, "this is the first time I have been here.""I don't care about that right now, I asked about Ryan," I repeated myself."Oh, the hospital isn't letting me see Ryan's body, Lexie and the other doctors don't seem bothered about Ryan's death and Xavier's arrest," Adrian explained to me and I joined him on the bed."What are you trying to say?" I raised my eyebrows."Lexie loves Ryan like her life depends on his and she doesn't seem bothered about his death, Lexie loves Xavier more than anything and she needs him to get the connection she wants but she doesn't seem bothered that her husband's medical license might be revoked," Adrian
EpilogueBoth Adrian and Leon ordered a search team to search the whole river, the search had been going on for two days, and yet nothing."Didn't I tell you not to shoot! If you don't bring my wife back, I promise you and your team will lose your job," Adrian's voice broke while speaking to the officer."We found someone!" One of the divers yelled and everyone ran to the site to check who they had found and it was Violet's body.Everyone searched for days but when they couldn't find her, they gave up and held a funeral for both Violet and Madison.Adrian was devastated by the death of his wife Madison, he blamed himself each passing day, and with the help of Leon and Nikki he was able to take care of his children.Jamie kept his promise to Madison and threw Lexie behind bars, Lexie was given 10 years in prison, 2 years community service, and would be out on probation, in the process of all these Lexie lost her medical license while Xavier on the other hand regained his memory, Xavier
Madison's POVI wore a black T-shirt and jeans, I was mourning after all, I packed my hair into a neat bun, and put the gun Kim had given to me on the day she died in the back of my pocket.Someone knocked on my door, Ignored it, but the person still entered, "What do you want?" I asked when I realized it was Jamie, I saw him through the dressing mirror.Jamie sat on the bed, "You didn't say hi to Justin, I'm sure my mother already told you he's your son.""I will when I return, I'm sure Justin knows me as his aunt and your mother as his mother," I scoffed."Yes, you can still build that bond with me, one day he can call you mummy," Jamie smiled at me."Why are you even here?" I kept a straight face."I don't want you to go to my mother," Jamie said, I turned my chair to him."Why?" I raised my eyebrows."I'm scared, I'm scared that if you leave you won't come back again, can't you just stay, I will go instead and talk to my mother," Jamie held my hand in his.I removed my hand from h
Madison's POVI stood motionless as Kim's coffin was being laid to rest on the cold ground, it was a quick and private funeral, not the one to invite business people and all.Tears slipped down my eyes as the ground was being covered up, never had I ever imagined I would bury Kim, the plan was to get her a good life after all the drama Violet was causing.I turned to look at everyone around me, Leon's eyes were red so as others, everyone was crying for a reason.Nikki was crying because of Lucy, Leon, the kids' nanny and I were crying because of Kim, Lexie was crying because of God knows what, Nikki's husband and Jamie were emotionless and Adrian was quiet because he felt guilty and it was his fault."She is no longer with us anymore because of you," Leon spat out bitterly at Adrian and walked out of everyone.I couldn't bear it anymore, my heart was too weak to see it, I ran out of there to my room, I felt hurt because if Kim were to be alive she would have run after me. I sat on the
Madison's POVI used my hands to wipe the blood off my eyes. The smile wiped away from my face as I saw the bullet pass through Kim's head, my eyes widened as Kim's head dropped to the steering wheel and blood began gushing out of her head.My first instinct was to stop the car, I managed to take control of the steering wheel and turned it till the car hit the tree and stopped.I came down from the car, my shaking hands dialed the ambulance number and my family's number, I was scared to touch her, I was scared. What if I touched her and she wouldn't wake up?I sat on the floor and waited for the ambulance, the tears coming out of my eyes refused to stop. Who shot the gun? Was it Violet and her people? Or the police?My family arrived before the ambulance didn't, "Madison, what happened? Why were you crying over the phone?" Leon's voice made me raise my head."What happened? What's Kim doing while you are here crying? What's all this blood?" Leon asked, feeling alert."Where is Lucy?"
Madison's POV"I want you to stay low until I arrive, no matter what happens today, make sure you save Lucy," I said to Kim the moment we arrived at our destination.The location Violet had given to me was a deserted area, with only uncompleted buildings and a cliff. I wondered why she chose this location.I came down from the car, with the gun behind my trouser, I waited for Violet to arrive and when she did, she arrived with hefty men."I thought we said no companies!" I yelled when she was approaching so she could hear me."That's for you not me," Violet stood in front of me with a smile on her face, "I have missed you.""Jail seemed to have been treating you right, why did you leave?" I remarked, I felt disgusted by being in her presence."Just needed a bit of fresh air and I missed your face, especially your eyes," Violet smiled and I laughed."Missed my face?" The laugh faded when I looked around her and realized Lucy wasn't with her, "Where is Lucy?"Violet looked around us, "S
Madison's POVIt's been almost a week and still no news of Violet and Lucy, the cops put out so many searches but nothing."Are you telling me that you can't find my child," My heart was heavy and I was lost as I rested on the kids' nanny."Please find her, please," Nikki pleaded with the cops."Ma'am we are trying our very best and we hope the result will soon surface," The cop lowered his gaze."Your best isn't enough!" Nikki yelled at the cops, "I'm dying every day and all you have been doing is nothing!"I got up from the nanny and went to kneel in front of Lexie, "Please, give me my child, please tell her to give me my child," I held Lexie's legs with my hands as I shed tears.Lexie forcefully removed her legs from my hands, "I don't know what you are talking about, why do you keep doing this? I don't know anything for crying out loud.""Please, Please, please she is just a child," I was pleading when Kim handed me my phone which was ringing, I took it from her to see that it was
Madison's POVThe sound of my phone falling to the ground brought me to reality, "How did she escape?" Adrian questioned."I have been talking to you, how did Violet escape?" Adrian asked again."She cut her wrist and was rushed to the hospital, on getting there the police left her for a second by the time they came back, she was gone and the nurse on duty was dead," I explained to them what the inspector told me over the phone."She killed a person, Violet must be on the wanted list by now," Adrian sat back on the chair with his hands on his head, "What do we do now?""What if she is with Lucy?" Nikki's husband said out of nowhere."No, it's not possible," I didn't think it was possible for Violet to take Lucy, how would she have even done it?"It's possible, matter of fact, it's very possible, I found it suspicious that twenty minutes and more footage were deleted, nobody except the members of the house has such access and Mrs Lexie left the living room for quite sometime now and ha
Madison's POVIt's the second day now and Nikki is yet to provide any evidence, I was scared, I trust her but the circumstances are driving me crazy."Has she not found the evidence?" Adrian used his towel to dry his hair."She will," I sat up on the bed and checked the wall clock for the time, "The day isn't over yet.""When it's over, I will lock her up for kidnapping and emotional damage," Adrian dropped the towel and put on his clothes."Excuse me? You will lock my sister up for what?" I glared at Adrian, "You will do no such thing.""I have the right, we are talking about our children," Adrian picked up his phone, checked something on it, and dropped it down.I scoffed, "Our children?" I held back the laugh that almost escaped my lips, "Really? For five years, for five fucking years Adrian, where were you!"It felt like I had had this anger for a long time, speaking out like this made my heart feel free."We both know I didn't know about it," Adrian said through gritted teeth."I
Madison's POVEveryone waited patiently for Lexie, Nikki and I to open up the package. Lexie's face turned pale when she opened her package, Nikki was shocked more like scared when she opened her package, what was theirs about?I opened my package and it was a sealed document, I tore the seal away to read what was inside, and I read it out loud."Children are a blessing and the ones you have been looking for are finally around you, way closer than you think, a sibling is a blessing but also a worst nightmare, there are two things, one is a secret unknown to you but known to two others," I read the letter attached to it. I was about to read the documents when Nikki snatched them away from my hands, her eyes scanned through them before tearing them up."What madness is this!" I yelled at Nikki, and relief washed over Lexie's face."I will let you when the time is right," Nikki said with the paper behind her, "What kind of games are you playing? Didn't I tell you, you are in the same sho
