Chapter 582
Chapter 582
The Godfrey family had never valued kinship, including Madison. In her eyes, interests and benefits were everything that mattered.
The three of them walked out of the doctor's office. Xavier and Theodore were both in low spirits. After a long while, Theodore spoke, "Let's go take a look at her."
"Alright."
Inside the ward, Madison was placed under oxygen support. She was as thin as a reed, but her eyes were clear. It was common for patients in critical conditions to look like this.
"How about you head in yourself. Well listen from here," Theodore replied in a deep voice. If they were to enter the ward now, it would only make her upset, and it might even affect her condition.
"You two go in. I don't feel like going in." Everleigh understood what he meant. He stayed to accompany her, but it was different at the moment; she didn't need to enter the ward.
"It doesn't matter whether or not you go in. She won't be nice to me. Everleigh, can't you see? The more I am favored by Wilson, the more she hates me." Theodore knew about this, but he didn't want to admit it. No matter how wrong Madison's behavior was, she was still his mother.
Xavier, who was in the wheelchair, was upset by his words, so he entered the ward directly.
Theodore and Everleigh quietly stood outside the ward.
In the ward, Madison heard the sound of a wheelchair as she looked up. When she saw Xavier's face, her eyes lit up. She said in a weak voice, "You're here!"
"I heard that you're seriously ill, so I came to see you."
She smiled and said, "The doctors here don't have good medical skills. They can't even cure my disease."
Upon hearing this, he unconsciously tightened his fist but said no words.
"However, I'm glad that you've come to see me. In all these years, it was my fault. I couldn't give you a healthy body. You deserve more than this."
"I don't care about that."
"I know you don't care; even Theodore doesn't care. But Xavier, you are my precious son. I hope I can give you the best." She knew that both Theodore and Xavier had been holding grudges against her for a long time.
However, she had no other way. Wilson was a sinister and cruel villain. She had to protect one of the two children. However, she never thought that Xavier's physical condition would worsen.
She had asked foreign doctors, but there was no possibility that Xavier's heart disease could be cured. The only way was to have a heart transplant. However, it was not easy to find a suitable donor.
"Take a good rest. You don't have to worry about anything."
"No, Godfrey Group is yours. Wilson can't take that away from you. Theodore is a good-for-nothing. He can't even fulfill your grandmother's last wish. You can't give up on this," Madison suddenly said in a harsh voice, as if she couldn't give up just like that.
Xavier's eyes revealed a hint of sorrow. He smiled bitterly. He thought that she would have changed a little after being in such a state, but he had thought too much of her. She was too obsessive; even death could not change her opinion.
"You still won't give up on this idea, do you?"
"Yes, this is your grandmother's last wish. I can't let Wilson destroy it," she said, staring at him with scarlet eyes.
She had to see him take charge of everything.
He smiled wryly. "You still haven't changed at all." After saying this, he turned his wheelchair and left.
By the door, Theodore and Everleigh heard everything.
"You've heard it as well. She said that I was her precious son, but in the end, she said so out of benefits." Xavier thought that he would be different from Theodore, but now, he could see that they were in the same boat.
Everleigh stood to the side, feeling sad for Theodore and Xavier. As a parent, Madison sure was one of a kind.
After Xavier returned to the company, he never stepped out again. Wilson had messed up the company, and many things had gone beyond his scope. Naturally, he couldn't ignore them.
A few days later, when he was about to go to the company, he received a phone call from the hospital, saying that Madison was on her last breath.
Everleigh and Theodore had arrived at the hospital. Looking at Madison, who was on her last breath, they could tell that she had little time left.
"You guys... sure are here fast." "We were in the hospital," Everleigh replied softly.
Looking at her, she didn't gloat nor sympathize with her.
It was as if they were looking at an ordinary person.
"Didn't you notice your health when you were in prison?"
"In the prison, I had a feeling and had reported it. Unfortunately... Wilson was on high alert. He wanted me to die in there." How could Madison not know what he had done? However, her body was in such a condition. Even if she wanted to find out the truth, there was nothing that could be done. It was better to help Xavier.
"You knew about it all along, didn't you?" Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
"Yes, I know, but what's the point? I'm already in this state. I'll be dead any time." Madison took deep breaths after she finished speaking. It was obvious that she wasn't breathing well.
When Xavier came over, he saw such a scene.
Upon seeing his mother, the attending doctor quickly tried to save her, but in the end, he shook his head at Everleigh and ordered people to unplug the machines.
Xavier and Theodore understood what was going on when they saw this.
"Xavier, you have to get back Godfrey Group. Otherwise, I won't die in peace."
"I'm already the president of Godfrey Group, and Theodore helped me get it back."
Hearing this, Madison was stunned and said weakly, "You're kind enough to do that?"
"Only you guys would think that I am a despicable villain." Theodore looked at her with a hint of sorrow in his eyes.
Perhaps in their hearts, he was that kind of person.
"Aren't you?" She smiled bitterly. She then closed her eyes and never opened them again.
Upon seeing this, Theodore and Xavier both had mixed feelings.
Everleigh's eyes turned slightly red. She turned to look at the patient on the bed.
Not long after, the nurse walked in, covering Madison's face with the sheets. That scrawny face of hers left a final impression on Theodore and the rest.
When the Allen family came over, Madison had been pushed into the morgue. The only thing that could be seen was her face with her eyes closed.
Everleigh, Theodore, and Xavier were in Everleigh's office. Christopher and Erine were also there. The two of them didn't want to meet with the Allen family.
"What's your plan now?" "I don't have any plans. The funeral will be simple," Xavier replied in a deep voice.
Since their parents had divorced, she would not enter the Godfrey family's ancestral tomb.
