Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 203

Chapter 203:

After the nurse read the news, she felt very confused. According to her observation, the couple clearly had no connection to the woman! Yet, her colleague was buzzing with excitement, clutching her phone like it held the secrets of the universe. “Yes, she’s here. You can come now,” she chirped into the phone, her voice brimming with urgency.

Inside the VIP ward, Sherlyn and Aidyn looked at Madisyn gratefully.

“Miss, thank you so much for standing up for us,” Aidyn began. “But this ward… it really isn’t necessary.”

Madisyn regarded them quietly. “Do you know who I am?” Although the couple clearly lacked the means financially, Madisyn could just tell that they were honest and sincere people—and such qualities were rare these days. Despite growing up in a poor home, Jenna still acted like a little princess, a testament to the deep love her parents had for her.

It was a cruel twist of fate that Jenna seemed blind to the sacrifices they made for her.

As the couple’s eyes lingered on Madisyn, recognition slowly dawned, their expressions shifting from confusion to surprise.

“You’re Miss Johns!” Sherlyn gasped, her voice trembling with a mix of awe and disbelief.

“That’s right,” Madisyn confirmed, offering them a warm, gentle smile. “When my family and I heard about your situation, we felt very sympathetic. We’ve decided to cover all your medical expenses. So please, just focus on resting and preparing for the surgery. There’s no need to worry about anything else.”

To the couple, it was as though God had granted them a miracle. Shock rippled through the two, and for a moment, they were both too stunned to speak.

Finally, Aidyn found his voice. “There’s no need for such a fancy ward,” he insisted, shaking his head with determination. “We are grateful for your help with the medical expenses, but I won’t take your money without giving something in return. Once I’m well, I’ll work hard to pay you back!”

Madisyn’s expression softened. “There’s no need to repay us. Years ago, my mother and your wife gave birth in the same place. That mix-up intertwined the destinies of our three families in a way that can’t be undone. To sum things up, consider this fate’s way of bringing things full circle. Just focus on getting better, okay?”

The couple looked at her, tears welling up in their eyes. The daughter they had nurtured for so many years had abandoned them, yet here was Madisyn—a complete stranger—offering kindness beyond measure.

How ironic was that?

“Your family, the Johns, are truly remarkable people,” Aidyn said, his voice thick with emotion. “I remember how your father tried to give me money back then, but I refused. I never blamed anyone for what happened. But now, with you coming to help us in our time of need, your kindness is something I will carry with me for the rest of my life.”

“Mr. Webb, let’s not dwell on the past,” Madisyn gently urged, noticing his fatigue. “You’re not in good health right now. Please, lie down and rest. I’ll go get you something to eat.” She glanced at the clock—it was nearing lunchtime.

Without another word, Madisyn slipped out of the room to buy the couple some food.

Aidyn climbed into bed, his voice a gentle murmur as he spoke to Sherlyn. “She’s such a kind, genuine person.”

“Yes,” Sherlyn nodded, her eyes still red and swollen from crying. “Their whole family is like that—kindhearted, every one of them. Thank goodness Mr. Johns found his daughter in time. With such a precious child in our care, I’m not sure we could have given her everything she deserves.”

They both felt a deep sense of gratitude, knowing that Glenn’s timely visit back then had made all the difference.

Just then, the door swung open, and a reporter barged in, camera in hand, lens glaring at them.

The sudden intrusion left them stunned, their confusion evident.

“Who are you?” Aidyn asked, his brow furrowed.

“Hello, I’m with Stars Daily,” the reporter announced, flashing a quick smile. “We got word that Madisyn visited you today. Is that true?”

“Yes, that’s right,” Aidyn confirmed, still trying to make sense of the situation.

The reporter’s smile widened, a hint of satisfaction gleaming in his eyes. “Seems our report worked.”

Aidyn blinked, perplexed. “What do you mean?”

“Well,” the reporter began, his tone laced with righteous fervor, “since Madisyn parted ways with the Chapman family, she hasn’t visited once. She’s been entirely preoccupied with her ambitions, trying to marry into wealth. If it weren’t for our article, she wouldn’t have come to see you this time either.”

Aidyn’s confusion deepened, and his voice wavered as he spoke. “But… she doesn’t owe us that.”

“How could she not?” The reporter frowned, his expression turning stern. “She’s your daughter, isn’t she? As her parents, don’t you believe you’re worthy of her love and attention? Even though the Chapman family raised her, that place was never truly her home. The blood in her veins is still yours!”

The words struck like lightning, leaving Aidyn and Sherlyn stunned.

They hadn’t been keeping up with the news, completely unaware of the storm brewing.

But now, the pieces began to fall into place. Had the relentless pressure from the headlines driven Madisyn to help them out?

A knot of unease twisted in Aidyn’s stomach. “You’re all mistaken. Madisyn isn’t my daughter.”

The reporter, sensing Aidyn’s discomfort, thought he was being weak. “How could you be so self-deprecating? It’s precisely because of this attitude that Madisyn became so audacious. Even after your cancer diagnosis, she still didn’t bother to see you!”

Aidyn’s brows furrowed tightly. “You’re mistaken. She really isn’t my daughter.”

But the reporter wasn’t having it. His eyes narrowed with disdain for Aidyn because he believed that Madisyn’s behavior was entirely due to Aidyn’s weakness. He considered himself a crusader for the truth and justice.

“Tell her to come here. Sometimes those involved can’t see the situation clearly, but outsiders can. Let us confront Madisyn and make her face the consequences of her actions!”

“You’re really wrong.” Aidyn’s patience frayed as his expression turned icy. He had tried to explain, to reason with the reporter, but he refused to listen. The chill in Aidyn’s voice cut through the air like a blade. “Please leave.”
