Chapter 1454

That year, her face had been red because she was feeling apologetic. She said, “I’m sorry, I only have one dollar with me.”

That voice of hers was like spring water as it glided through his heavy and fidgety heart.

That one dollar helped him achieve his dream.

Ryan smiled suddenly. His gray eyes were reflected with the face of the woman he truly loved and admired. Suddenly, he felt that this was pretty good.

“Eveline,” he yelled at Madeline, “Thank you.”

‘Thank you for appearing in my life and thank you for forgiving me in the end.’

“Ryan, why are you not running? Run!”

Boom!

The yacht exploded all of a sudden. The strong stream of air and heat closed in on Madeline.

“Ah!”

Madeline yelled as she hurriedly covered her face with her hands. However, she could not stop this force.

She was thrown far away. At this moment, she could only feel the heat on her face and the buzzing in her ears. All of the thoughts in her head had been sucked away.

While in a daze, she heard someone yelling and losing their head out of fear. However, she gradually started to lose her consciousness and senses…

After some time, Madeline felt dazzling sunlight in the corners of her eyes. She tried to open her eyes but felt extreme pain spreading on her face and skin.

“Hiss.” Madeline could not help but let out a grunt of pain.

“Sir, I think she’s awake.” She heard the voice of a middle-aged man from beside her.

Even though Madeline did not have her eyes fully open, she could tell that the ‘she’ the man was talking about was her.

Despite being in pain, Madeline still forced herself to open her eyes to see what was going on.

After she opened her heavy eyelids, a fair and flawless face vaguely appeared in front of her dazed eyes. Those black eyes were like stars as they glistened brightly and coldly.

Madeline wanted to get up but could not exert any force. She felt her entire body aching too. It was as if her bones would shatter if she moved.

“It’s best if you don’t move,” the man in front of her said suddenly. His voice was deep and frigid. His refined yet arrogant aura immediately assaulted Madeline’s senses.

“Where am I?” Madeline asked this question challengingly. “I want to go home.”

“Are you sure you can go home like this?” the man asked. His tone was laced with a low chuckle. “Let’s talk about this when you have the strength to get out of bed.”

Madeline frowned and saw the man leaving from the corner of her eyes. However, she did not even have the energy to turn her neck.

She wanted to say something when she heard the middle-aged man say, “Miss, you should stay here and recover. I don’t think you can walk in this state, let alone go home.”

When she heard this, Madeline felt an unknown terror rising from the bottom of her heart.

She thought about what happened before she lost consciousness. The yacht exploded when Ryan was still on the deck. After that, the heat from the explosion caused her to pass out.

It seemed that she was hurt pretty badly.

However, Madeline did not know how bad.

She fell asleep again. While she was groggy, she felt the doctor treating her. She was in pain but did not have the energy to struggle or back away.

In the following three days, Madeline depended on a saline drip for nutrition and strength. She finally had the energy to get out of bed on the fourth day.

Madeline finally realized that she was in an extremely gorgeous and stylish English-styled manor. She could tell that the owner of this place had a high social status from the decoration and renovation of the place.

A maid carefully helped Madeline to the toilet. Madeline thanked her and walked in. However, when she saw herself in the mirror, she felt as if the blood in her body had instantly frozen over.
