Chapter 484 Feel Guilty
Chapter 484 Feel Guilty
"Madison? What's wrong?"
Hailee noticed Madison had already been in a trance for a long time. Considering that Madison is a few years older than her, she constantly seeks her advice and trusts anything she tells her.
DV Gem would not stand if it weren't for Madison's help. She and Kelly were rookies in running a business, and Madison guided them, so she always respected her opinion and suggestions.
Madison, who was in a trance, snapped herself back to her senses. She smiled and said, "It's nothing, Hail. I'm just thinking about Papa, hoping Liam would confess and help us out."
"But it is not what I asked you about."
Hailee complained, and Madison noticed the irritation in her voice. She looked at her apologetically.
"Sorry about that... I'm just worried about Papa and everyone. I am praying everything will be over soon," Madison expressed with sadness exhibited in her eyes.
She is already in a dilemma, as Hailee will celebrate her twenty-fifth birthday soon. It's been five years since they kept the truth from her, and it is heavy to bear inside the chest.
She is grateful that she has this kind of ability; she has to continue lying to the surrounding people and watch in silence as it is her role.
Vincent, who was supposed to die three years ago, gladly, they were able to stop that and change his and Hailee's fate. However, their battle hasn't ended yet.
And now, Hailee was bothered by her nightmare again. Madison is tempted to tell Hailee the truth, but it might compromise their plans.
"Madison, I want to know the truth. Am I related to the past? Is my dream actually the memories of my past life?"
Madison struggled to remain calm and conceal the guilt in her eyes.
"Many of us have a past life of another identity. It completely remains when we are born again, but buried deep down in our memories, the reason we have vivid dreams of ourselves living in different times or episodes that are very familiar. We believe it hasn't happened yet since we were born."
Madison explained, then she went on, "Sometimes, these memories are wiped out like we are not bothered with strange dreams but only felt like our first time living in this world."
Listening to Madison's explanation, Hailee was clouded by curiosity and confusion. "I need to be enlightened."
She wants to understand everything so that she can help Vincent in every way. Hailee would not allow him to fight without her.
Madison relaxed and smiled. "I will speak to Papa and ask his permission. May I can't guarantee Papa Shun will let me disclose everything to you? But you have nothing to worry about. At the right time, you will learn what you need to know. Soon, after you give birth and can fly to Italy, Lady Isabella and I will both visit your dream and understand its message."
Because honestly, until now, she didn't completely understand why that man wanted to bring trouble to the Xing family when they were living peacefully after the assassination.
"Hail, we are all concerned about your pregnancy, so please be patient. Always remember that we are here for you and Vincent. We will protect these precious babies inside your womb…."
Madison reached Hailee's baby bump and stroked it. She was wearing fashionable gloves, so she was confident in touching Hailee. However,
"Madison!" Hailee shouted hysterically after Madison fainted. "Mrs. Brown! James!"
It didn't take long; the door in the study was paused open by James, rushing to her side.
"Empress! What happened?"
"I don't know. We were talking, and then Madison suddenly lost consciousness." Hailee is also confused.
When Madison caressed her baby bump, she only stared at her belly. Then suddenly, Madison fell to the floor, unconscious.
"Mrs. Brown, please call Hector to check Madison!"
Hailee requested the older woman. Mrs. Brown immediately sprang out of the room, carrying out the order. Before she could reach the door, Hailee called out to her again.
"I think Doctor Dave or Doctor Manni's assistance is also needed," Hailee remembered Madison was pregnant and thought maybe it was why she fainted. "James, please carry Madison to the bed."
James quickly moved and picked up Madison from the floor. Thankfully, to the high-quality carpet laid down around Hailee's queen's bed, Madison didn't have a concussion.
James carefully placed Madison on the bed. Then he pulled out his phone from the back pocket of his pants and dialed Levi's mobile number. They were just two floors away, and he could not wait for the elevator to go up.
Soon, Levi arrived, panting and sweat forming on his forehead after running down the stairs downstairs. Actually, he came first than Doctor Dave, who was staying on the floor below to attend to Hailee right away.
Doctor Dave examined Madison, but he saw nothing wrong except that her heartbeat was fast.
"Is she diagnosed with heart problems?" Doctor Dave asks Levi. He is not an expert on the vascular system, but he has enough knowledge. So it troubled him that the patient had an abnormal heart rate.
"There are times she would be in this state, Doctor Dave." Levi could not reveal that his wife is currently time traveling. He badly wanted to follow Madison, but it would be a lengthy explanation to Doctor Dave, James, Mrs. Brown, and most especially Hailee if he suddenly lost consciousness.
"Levi, I think it was my fault." She admitted. Hailee felt guilty that she summoned Madison's presence to bug her about her dream. Lately, she has been stubborn. She kept troubling Madison and everyone with her capriciousness.
Levi looked at Hailee. Her eyes were moist like she was on the verge of crying as she blamed herself. He smiled and said, "Don't blame yourself, Hail. Madison's pregnancy symptoms have begun. So it would be common for her to faint."
Even though Levi comforted her, Hailee still felt the guilt in her heart. "I'm really sorry to stress, Madison."
Levi walked toward Hailee. He patted her back and appeased her further to calm down as well. Her pregnancy was the sensitive than Madison's.
"What happened?"
At the door, Doctor Hector queries as he makes buried steps toward the bed. Following behind him is Doctor Serena Dave.
"Dad, have you checked if it is related to her pregnancy?" Doctor Serena asked her father while they watched Doctor Hector run an examination at Madison.
"There is nothing wrong with her except her heart rate. It is not my expertise."
"Alright. I understand, dad."
Everyone waited for Doctor Hector's initial findings.
"I suggest bringing Madison to the hospital so that I can give her a general check-up and perform complete laboratory tests. The paramedic vehicle is waiting below."
The Dream City Paramedic Team came to the suite and put Madison on the stretcher. Even if Madison had only fainted and had no injuries, they followed the procedure.
With Doctor Serena's help at the hospital, Hector infuses an IV on Madison and monitors her heart rate with the machine.
On the phone, Derek is instructing Hector on what to do, assuming that Derek was Madison's personal doctor, and so he was sharing how to treat her.
Anyway, it is unnecessary for such drama when Hector knows what is happening. He practiced Medicine under Derek's supervision, so he knew the secrets. When Levi gave him a knowing look, he nodded his head and left the room with Stephanie.
"Hey, can you cover me with my patients today?" asked Serena.
Serena nodded and smiled. "Of course. I'll go ahead then."
After Serena planted a kiss on Hector's cheek, she bolted toward the elevator. Hector went back to the ward.
"She's gone."
With that, Levi lay down beside his wife and held her hand. After Levi loses consciousness, Hector infuses him with an IV like Madison.

ALLIANCE HQ, Italy
Shun is seated across from Derek inside Lady Isabella's office while she is at her chair behind the office table. Shun discusses their preparation for Liam's confession with Derek when his phone rings, and the caller ID is Madison.
Shun quickly swipes the green button and greets her.
"How are you, Madison?"
"Hello, Papa… I'm fine."
Shun noticed her weak voice. He felt terrible because Madison was pregnant now, so that it would be difficult for her to time travel.
"I'm glad. What happened, by the way?"
They wondered why Madison traveled time so suddenly when she did not directly touch anyone.
"I am not sure as well, Papa. I am wearing gloves, and I am just stroking Hailee's baby bump. However, it brought me toward Hailee's dream. The one Lady Isabella sealed off."
Lady Isabella raised her head and looked at Shun's phone on the center table, listening to the conversation. She thought maybe it happened as her immortality was wearing off.
Meanwhile, Derek glanced at his mother. He said, "Could it be that you weaken because your ability passed to Madison?"
Lady Isabella remained silent.
Madison could travel time on her own accord, but it would only take her to a random timeline. But if she touches someone or holds her hand, she will visit her future.
However, today's case is odd for Madison. Only Lady Isabella can foresee someone just by looking at the person. In the passing years, Madison could travel time to their desired date with the help of the first time machine Derek invented.
But recently, Derek has been completing a time machine that would bring any object to a specific time. Actually, he aims to transport bodies, not just one or two, but a group of people.
The first time machine he invented will connect to Madison's brain and manually set a date for her to travel time.
Thinking of this, Derek had recalled something. He looked at Shun and queried the guy.
"Have you successfully interrogated your son?"
Shun shook his head.
On the other line, Madison would like to suggest that she will look into Allen's past or future life. She attempted to do this before, but it shocked her when Allen deliberately refused her and called her by her name from her first life.
"Please don't, Carlene."
Allen was only three years old, and they were sure they didn't mention her past life to him. So there's no way he would know that.
"I often talk to Allen about it. But he is firm not to tell me anything," Shun remembered his conversation with his son before leaving Dream City.
He found Allen looking outside at the floor-ceiling window in the corridor. He need not guess that his son was in deep thoughts while hugging his portable computer tight.
"Son? What are you doing here early in the morning?"
He believes Allen is supposed to be still in bed. He is just eight years old, but he always wakes up early, like an adult who needs to go to the office and work hard.
"Papa…" Allen looked up and met his father's gaze. "You are leaving again?"
Shun could feel his heart pricked by a knife as Allen's eyes filled with sorrow when he asked this question. When Allen was just a year old, he thought his son was just fond of crayons and coloring. But when he is two, his drawing becomes vivid. And when he was five years old, he drew a time machine layout that would bring a limitless object to another timeline, including bodies.
"I will come back as soon as possible," he promised.
"Then, can you give this to Uncle Derek?"
Shun accepted the gadget Allen handed to him. He scanned the files on it. Then his eyes widened in shock.
"Allen, which future are you from?"
