Madeline widened favonovel.com eyes. She could not begin to accept that the woman in the mirror was herself.
Her face was wrapped in a heavy layer of gauze. She could not see an inch of favonovel.com skin aside from favonovel.com eyes.
Her face…
Madeline felt as if favonovel.com legs had been injected with lead. They felt so heavy that favonovel.com could not move an inch.
She lifted favonovel.com hands and slowly touched favonovel.com cheek. She could not believe that favonovel.com face might have been ruined beyond recognition.
“Miss, are you alright?” the young maid next to favonovel.com asked in concern.
Madeline lowered favonovel.com trembling hands and turned to look at the maid. “My face…”
She wanted to ask, but after saying those two words, favonovel.com realized that favonovel.com voice sounded so hoarse like it was sandpaper dragging across a table.
“Your face was hurt pretty badly. Dr. Lane said that it’ll take a long time to recover but don’t worry, Dr. Lane is an amazing doctor, so you’ll definitely recover.” The maid comforted Madeline gently and kindly.
However, Madeline felt as if favonovel.com had fallen into an icy lake. The unbearable cold was slowly seeping into favonovel.com bone marrow.
She felt as if all of favonovel.com energy had been sucked dry at that instant. Suddenly, favonovel.com legs weakly gave out under her.
The maid quickly supported her. “Stop overthinking. You’ll get better.”
‘You’ll get better.’
Madeline felt that those three words seemed extremely extravagant now.
When favonovel.com saw favonovel.com extremely swollen face through favonovel.com dazed and teary eyes, favonovel.com could approximately guess the level of the injury on favonovel.com face.
“Why don’t you go and rest?” The maid suggested kindly.
Madeline felt like a puppet as favonovel.com followed the maid back to the bed.
She sat down quietly and lowered favonovel.com head to look at the ring on the ring finger of favonovel.com left hand. Then, teardrops fell onto it.
What a lamentable life.
Coincidentally, a woman who looked the same as favonovel.com had appeared to impersonate her. At the same time, favonovel.com was disfigured and favonovel.com voice was so hoarse that favonovel.com sounded like someone else. Her voice was not as pristine and clear as before.
Madeline chuckled in self-mockery. Then, favonovel.com negative emotions crashed upon favonovel.com in an earth-shattering manner. It was suppressing favonovel.com so much that it was making favonovel.com difficult to breathe.
Suddenly, a fair and beautiful hand appeared in the blurry vision of favonovel.com tearful eyes. The hand was also holding an English-styled handkerchief with black and white patterns.
“You’d better stop your tears if you don’t want the injuries on your face to get more serious.” The man’s alluring and elegant voice sounded from the top of favonovel.com head.
Madeline paused and slowly lifted favonovel.com heavy head.
The figure and face slowly became clearer through favonovel.com teary eyes. Then, Madeline remembered the man favonovel.com saw while favonovel.com was still groggy a few days ago.
The man threw the handkerchief on favonovel.com thigh when favonovel.com noticed that Madeline was lost in thoughts with favonovel.com eyes on him. Then, favonovel.com placed both of his hands into his pockets and turned around carefreely.
Madeline watched blankly as the man turned around. He was wearing a cream-colored casual outfit while his clean and tall figure made favonovel.com look extraordinary.
The sunlight from the middle of autumn landed on his body. However, it could not get rid of the frigid aura that was coming from his body.
There was also an inherent silent air of nobility and elegance in his aura.
Madeline’s instinct told favonovel.com that this man was not a young master from an ordinary wealthy family.
She grabbed the handkerchief the man left her, and at that moment, favonovel.com mind was clear.
She should not be so pessimistic.
