Madeleine was stopped by James Duncan as soon as she was out of the ward. James Duncan looked
at Carson. He raised his chin and asked, "Madeleine, who's this? Don't you feel you should introduce
us to each other?"
Before Madeleine could answer, Carson, put his arms around her waist possessively. Then he said
elegantly, "I'm his boyfriend. May I have your name?"
James couldn't believe it. His romance with Madaleine had been killed in the cradle.
It wasn't easy for him to decide to settle down. He felt blessed to have met a woman he loved, and he
had even decided to give up a lot to be with her. However, before it was over before it was started.
He wondered if she was joking.
James looked at Madeleine and said with disbelief, "Madeleine, give me a reason, why?"
Madeleine was confused, and it was not her fault. In her eyes, she and James were barely friends.
Whether she and Carson are in a relationship should not be James's concern.
"James, what why?" Madeleine waved her hand impatiently and said, "Thank you for having saved
Ophelia, but I'm really not in the mood to play on words with you today. I'll treat you to a meal later, but
now I just want to go back and have some good sleep. We can talk tomorrow, OK?"
James didn't want to push her. He said generously, "Don't get me wrong. Helena wanted us to be
together and I was impressed by you. I had a plan to settle in here. I was thinking if we can have a try,
you know, I am a very straightforward person."
Madeleine was started this time. She widened her eyes and glanced at Carson, and then she dry-
laughed, "You must be joking, James, and that's not funny. The surgery must have worn you out and
you're not thinking straight. Go get some sleep. You'll be fine tomorrow. We can talk tomorrow, bye!"
Then she ignored the secret confrontation and competition between the two men. She left without
turning back.
Carson glanced at James with a thin smile and then he caught up with her.
James stayed still and shrugged. He was just turned down, but he didn't seem sad at all.
He wasn't crazy about Madeleine. He was going to start a relationship with her after he settle because
he found her cute, and they had similar personalities. It would be best if they could get married at last,
and if not, it wasn't just meant to be.
James shrugged, put his hand in the pocket of the gown. Then he whistled and left in the opposite
direction.
On the other side, as soon as Madeleine walked out of the gate of the hospital, her right wrist was
grabbed. The man dragged him forcefully and she was pulled onto a wide chest.
Madeleine's nose hit hard on those pecs which were hard as iron. She screamed out of pain and
covered her nose with tears in her eyes.
She raised her head and stared at Carson. "Are you doing this on purpose? It's killing me!"
Carson hugged her waist and took her to the side of the car. It was almost impossible for her to resist.
He pushed her against the car.
Then he pressed himself on her, his breath was on her face.
Looking at his handsome face in such a short distance, Madeleine's face was heating. Her heart beat
faster and faster.
Carson's eyes shone in the darkness like two sapphires. Madaleine could barely take her eyes away.
"Who is he?" Carson inclined to Madeleine and asked.
Looking at his handsome face getting closer, Madeleine felt her heart had lost a beat. Her head went
chaotic and muddy.
"Who is who?" Madeleine asked. She was so lovable eccentric.
"That foreign man."
Madeleine blinked and asked innocently, "You mean James?"
Carson nodded.
"What about him?"
"You like him?"
Madeleine felt as dull as if she had lost half of her brain. She knew every word he asked, but she
couldn't understand what he meant by that.
"What?"
"Do you like him?" Carson almost pressed Madeleine to the car head. His lips were just two inches
away from hers.
Madeleine was dazzled. Every time she was with Carson, her brain stopped functioning and she
couldn't come up with any ideas.
Seeing her not answering, Carson's gaze turned sharp. He squinted and asked, "You like him, huh?"
Madeleine nodded, muddlehead.
Carson's gaze turned sharper. He lowered his head and kissed Madeleine. His tongue forced her bright
teeth opened and invited her tongue for a dance.
The sudden kiss stunned Madeleine. She had struggled slightly at the beginning, but after Carson's
aggressive tongue invaded her lips and mouth, she was indulged in it.
Carson was very glad that she was enjoying it. He kissed her harder. When they separated, Madeleine
was leaning on the car, gasping, hands and legs softened. Her cheeks turned rosy and her eyes lost
focus.
Carson pulled her over and held her in his arms. She leaned on it for a while. When she regained her
sanity, she pushed him away and slapped heavily on his face.
