Chapter 978
Ava’s concerned voice sounded in Madeline’s ear.
Madeline turned her face and tried to look for Ava in the dark. However, she got nothing. “Ava?”
“Maddie, what happened last night? Why are you hospitalized? Who sent the message to me on your phone?”
Madeline opened her eyes to look again after she heard Ava’s voice of concern. However, everything was still dark in front of her.
She lifted her hand and put it in front of her eyes, but she could not even see the outline of her hand.
Heh, she was blind again.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
“Maddie, Maddie?” Ava was extremely concerned.
Madeline only shook her head. “Ava, I’m fine. You don’t have to worry about me. I won’t let anything happen to me for the sake of the children.”
She promised, then recalled what happened after she jumped out of the car.
She had been too impulsive.
When she thought about her parents who died tragically and the man she loved who was also the one who caused her parents to die in the fire, she could not face it nor did she want to face it.
She had wanted to end this. However, when she calmed down and thought about it clearly, she realized how stupid she was.
If she was dead, Lana would be the happiest.
How could she give up before seeking revenge?
She could not.
Madeline did not tell Ava about her vision loss. She merely said she was tired and wanted to sleep before asking Ava to leave.
After Ava left, Madeline got up with much effort to find the call button.
Her head hurt, and it was as if a million needles were stabbing the back of her head.
She endured the pain, and after a while, the doctor arrived.
When she knew that Madeline could not see, she arranged a full-body check-up for her.
Madeline’s wounds healed very quickly, but she still could not see anything.
Her movements were greatly restricted because of this.
Karen brought Madeline’s youngest son over so that she could breastfeed him while she went to fetch Madeline a glass of water.
Jeremy had been coming to the hospital these few days. However, since Karen was always around, he did not have a chance to get close to Madeline. Finally, when Karen left, Jeremy walked hurriedly to the door.
He looked at Madeline through the small window with an emotional glint in his eyes.
However, the glint was quickly overpowered by a complicated look.
“Linnie,” he called out softly, and it was as if Madeline heard him because she lifted her head suddenly.
When Jeremy was about to hide, Madeline placed her son down and started feeling around the edge of the bed to get up.
He was taken aback in disbelief. He thought he was seeing things, but in the next second, he saw Madeline crashing into the coffee table with her knees and falling to the floor.
Jeremy immediately pushed the door open and barged in to help Madeline get up. “Linnie! Linnie, are you okay? Did you hurt yourself?”
