Chapter 483
Jeremy started the car instantly.
After Madeline heard his words, an expectant smile appeared on her cold face.
Through the mirror, Jeremy could see that Madeline was holding her hands tightly. There were endless emotions in her eyes along with a hint of nervousness.
Jeremy curled the corners of his lips when he saw the look of genuine happiness on Madeline’s face.
He was finally seeing a smile on his face.
However, after driving on the busy roads, the car ended up in a place where Madeline was familiar with.
She was puzzled as she reminisced about the scenery outside the window.
‘Has my child been living in April Hill this entire time?
‘Then who’s taking care of my child?’
The car came to a stop slowly as she was thinking about these questions.
Madeline did not wait for Jeremy to open the door for her and got out hurriedly.
Everything in front was not foreign to her. They were at the beach of April Hill.
It was the depths of winter and the sea breeze was bone-chillingly cold.
No one would come to the beach during this season. Even the villagers nearby would rarely come to the beach.
Madeline looked at the vast emptiness in front of her before running toward Jeremy.
“Jeremy, where is my child?” she asked hurriedly, “Why did you take me here? I want to see my child!”
He thought about that in silence. When he came back to his senses, he saw Madeline leaving on her own.
The breeze kept blowing over. It was so salty and tasted like their memories from so many years ago.
However, after these memories went away like the tide, the only things left were the pain that was too unbearable to look back on.
Jeremy followed after Madeline. She was so close to him, yet she seemed so untouchable.
He wanted to find a topic to talk to Madeline about. Coincidentally, an old woman appeared in the field in front of them. The old woman had just dug out an entire basket full of sweet potatoes, but since she had too many, a few of them rolled out from her basket.
Madeline quickly ran up to help her. Jeremy ran up as well.
The old woman thanked them repeatedly. Then, she raised her head to look at Madeline and Jeremy. When she saw them, she smiled and said, “It’s you two! You two came here even though it’s so cold. Are you here to look back on your childhood memories again?”
Madeline and Jeremy were taken aback when they heard that. At this moment, they finally realized that this old woman was the retired doctor from back then.
