Chapter 299

In the mille of the night, Ryan leaned over the bed, resting his cheek agama Madeline's warm one. He held her close, ignoring the realit

He simply followed his brant, derling peaceful

Ryan's deep eyes looked mysterious. No one could see what he was

was truly thinking

Ryan placed Madeline's wenst by his face, feeling her pulse brat with the thyths of her heart and breath, all in real

Ryan monoured, "Malelor, do you remember me? You've forgotten a lot of things, so you probably don't remember me Remember. In your cousin. I will make you remember."

Ryan smiled and gave Madeline a kiss at the comer of her month. His long and thick lashes cast shadows, and he smile looked somewhat renie Ryan stayed mail five in the manning, knowing the staff would start working soon. Only then did he reluctantly get up, pick up his coat, and head

Before leaving, Ryan took a long look at the peacefully sleeping Madeline.

He unddenly said, "I remember a story,"

The bodyguard stood quietly, listening

Ryan continued, "Once upon a time, there was a Sleeping Beauty who needed a prince chio to wake her up. Why hasn't she woken up' Is it became Im not her princef"

The bodyguand didn't dare say anydung. Given Ryan's identity and personality, he wouldn't normally say such ridiculous word.

However, it was clear Ryan felt differently about this woman.

Ryan's calm and inservitable heart appeared to have been stirred into a storm by Madeline.

The bodyguard reported "Ms. Green came by. She said she would keep waiting for you."

Ryan gave to sponse.

Back in the room on the fourth floor. Ryan wanted to have a good sleep. Beside Madeline, though he couldn't have a deep sleep, he had moments of comfort and peace. Ryan's room was lavish. When he entered, it was pitch black, not a bit of light could be seen.

Ryan walked to the side of the bed, but before he could even put his coat down, a pair of arms wrapped around his neck.

Following the woman's movement. Ryan tumbled onto the bed.

A leg wrapped around his waist.

The air was filled with a tempting fragrance.

Karen's alluring body pressed close, her breath fragrant. She asked, "Ryan, why did you make me wait so long?"

The atmosphere was intimate and charged with passion.

However, Ryan frowned, impatiently pushing Karen aside with disdain. He said. "Who gave you permission to enter my room? You've overstepped your boundaries. Don't forges your role.

Karen paused for a moment before saying, "My role is just like a loyal dog to Mr. Massey. If Mr. Massey beckons, I come. If he wants me to leave. I will leave right away!

Ryan let out a low grunt and said, 'I don't need you today"

Karen froze, feeling cold all over. She was already undressed, and now she felt a deep sense of humiliation.

Karen asked. "Is it because she's here today that you no longer need me? What did you do with her! Ryan, she's sick, and she's your coun

aclard, so you

Ryan lead lost all patience, even infuriated by Katen's words.

His strong hand graspeil Karen's orck. He pushed her to the bed as she struggled painfully

Karea stammered. "Mr. Massey, I was wrong.. I shouldn't have spoken thoughtlessly."

Ryan declared with fierce intensity, the veins on his temples bulging as anger flared in his eyes. "What does being related manert As long as I love her, we can be together, forever. If she wants a child, I can give her one. As long as we're in love, what's not possible? I can change her status and make her my wife. If anyone dares to gossip. Il eut out their tongues!"

Karen knew Ryan wasn't joking, and she was

terrified.

She begged, "I was terribly wrong"

Madeline was in pain all over, and her mind was a bit hazy,

She couldn't remember how she got through all the pain, but when she woke up, a week had already passed.

As Madeline opened her eyes, the bright light made her feel a bit disoriented

It had snowed outside. Madeline sat on the unfamiliar bed, rubbing her head.

"Where am I? Madeline asked.

There were footsteps outside.

Madeline watched cautiously and saw Harriet at the doorway, carrying medicine.

Seeing Madeline awake, Harriet said, "You finally woke up. Are you okay now? When I last went to your house to look for you, you fainted, so I decided to bring you here myself. Harriet pointed to Madeline's phone on the bedside and continued, "When you were taken here, your phone accidentally fell downstairs and broke. You won't ask me to pay for it, will you?"

Madeline looked at Harriet with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Madeline asked. "Did you save me?"

Harriet replied, "Yeah, you were drugged. Do you still remember?"

She placed the medicine on the nightstand.

Harriet sat by the bed and picked up the medicine, saying, "Your face is a bit flushed. It might take you more than half a month to fully recover, so you might want to avoid looking in the mirror for now."

Madeline rubbed her temples and took a deep breath. Her pale face was clearly marked with red blotches,

Madeline asked, "How long have I been at your place!"

Harriet replied, "It's been about a week"

"Hasn't anyone come looking for me! Madeline glanced sideways at Harriet, scrutinizing her closely.

This didn't make any sense.

Madeline had bodyguards to protect her and had informed Nolan beforehand that she wasn't feeling well. If Nolan and the others weren't in some kind of trouble, they surely would have taken Madeline home by now, instead of leaving her to be taken care of by strangers. Harriet had rescued Madeline, but what if Madeline had ended up in the hands of the wrong people?

The fact that Nolan and the others hadn't come could only mean they were unable to replace her.

Madeline asked, "Is this place your organization's base? Are there guards to keep others out! Cavin knows you well, so he must have contacted Harriet met Madeline's eyes, realizing she was smart

you

Harriet said. "People like us must live in safe places. Otherwise, my enemies could have tried to get to me hundreds of times. She shook her head and continued, "Gavin reached out to me, but I assured him everything was fine. It's not that they don't want to take you back; they just can't get in. and the doctor mentioned that your condition isn't stable enough for travel right now"

Madeline pressed her lips, not believing Harriet's words. She was pondering her situation

*Come on, drink your medicine. If I wanted to harm you, I wouldn't have bothered saving you, Harriet said, taking out her phone and calling Gavin. After a few rings, he answered, "Harriet, you've had Madeline there for quite a while now. It's time to send her back. I know you wouldn't be up to anything bad because we know each other, but others might not think that way. Don't get yourself into trouble. Gavin's voice was a bit hoarse, like he wasn't feeling well.

Gaviny tone became threatening towards the end. "If you dare cross me, don't blame me for not caring about our friendship."

Harriet looked somewhat helpless and replied, "I've already told you, she's under treatment and just woke up today"

Harriet handed the phone to Madeline and said. "Here, you talk to him. I don't want my good intentions to be misunderstood." Madeline took the phone and said. "Gavin."

Gavin asked. "Madeline, how are you feeling now? Are you uncomfortable?" His voice was full of concern, completely different from earlier. "Don't worry, the guards are close by. If anything happens to you, they'll rush in immediately, said him. Madeline replied, Tm okay. Don't worry about me. I'm doing well right now. It's just my bones hurt a bit from lying down for so long.
