Chapter 378 Another Fever


    Everyone was staring at the door of the OR nervously. Suddenly somebody''s phone rang.


    They traced the ringtone and looked at Madeleine. She was still dazed and didn''t realize what''s


    happening.


    Helena pointed to her bag, and Madeleine finally woke up. She took out her phone in a hurry and saw


    Carson''s name on it."


    Madeleine furrowed his brows because she didn''t know why would Carson call her. Given that Ophelia


    was still in the OR, she hung up the phone without hesitation.


    However, Carson seemed reluctant to give in. He called five times in a row. Hna said gently, "Just


    pick it up, Madeleine. Maybe it''s something urgent."


    Madeleine nodded as an apology. Then she took her phone aside and picked it up.


    She wasn''t in the mood to answer this phone call, and Carson keenly captured the difference in her


    voice.


    "What''s the matter? Who mistreated you?" Carson''s gravelly voice.


    For some reason, Madeleine''s lost control of her nervousness upon hearing Carson''s voice. She


    choked in sobs, "I''m fine, and I got to hang up if it is not something important."


    "Wait. Where are you now? I cane by right away. Don''t try to y at me. You know I''ve got plenty


    of ess to locate you," Carson said, and he sounded very firm.


    Madeleine had no choice but to admit that she was in the People''s Hospital at downtown.


    Li Haoran was stunned for a moment, and then he said, "I''ming right away. I''ve got this. Don''t


    worry."


    He said and hung up the phone.


    Seeing the dimmed screen, Madeleine suddenly felt an unknown peaceing to her. The suffocative


    feeling was gone.


    Madeleine put her phone back in her bag and walked back to the OR. Helena took a look at him and


    asked out of concern, "Who''s that? Is it urgent?"


    Madeleine shook her head and said, "Just a friend of mine. He was going to visit my home and I said I


    wasn''t home. So we made it another day.


    Helena sighed and said nothing more.


    The mood outside the operating room suddenly turned somber.


    Li Haoran came by around 45 minutester. He walked to Madeleine like a ray of light shining upon


    her. His attractive appearance outshone almost everything here.


    "Did you get hurt?" Carson walked to Madeleine and asked with great concern.


    Madeleine just stared at Carson nkly. She didn''t expect Carson toe so quickly.


    "You, are you here?" Madeleine''s tongue was tied when speaking to Caron, like always. She couldn''t


    helo stammering.


    Carson raised his hand to feel her cheeks and repeated, "Did you get hurt?"


    Madeleine paused and answered as if she had lost her soul, "I''m fine. It just... Ophelia.."N?velDrama.Org (C) content.


    Carson frowned and looked at the door of the OR. "What about her?"


    Madeleine''s eyes dimmed and shook her head.


    Helena dry-coughed and asked, "Madeleine, who''s this?"


    It was then that Madeleine realized they weren''t alone in this room.


    Her cheeks burned and she looked at Carson. He seemed very calm and introduced himself


    generously, "Nice to see you. Madeleine is now working in my publishing house. I''m his current boss,


    also future boyfriend, and potential husband."


    Madeleine got mad. The man had such a big mouth.


    "Please stop talking nonsense."


    Carson blinked his eyes with a rare innocent expression, "I''m telling the truth. What did I do wrong?"


    Madeleine was even angrier.


    Helena looked at Carson from head to toe, silently. She had seen lots of pretty people, yet she was still


    surprised by Carson''s good look.


    This young man looked irrationally handsome. Few men could surpass him in appearance, including


    her son that she was proud of would still be outshone by this young man.


    Helena said, "Mrs. Harrison, you have a good look."


    Carson smiled decently. "Thank you for thepliment. Please call me Carson."


    Helena paused and then nodded.


    "Now that we''ve met, I''m just curious... Are you pursuing my daughter?" Helena asked


    straightforwardly.


    Carson tilted his head in doubt.


    Helena put on a decent but distant smile, "I just swore Madeleine as my goddaughter. I think I have the


    right to know about her pursuers."


    Carson''s expression remained unchanged, and he smiled. "It is her blessing to have a graceful


    godmother like you. She refused me because she said she''s not my match. I can''t take that as her


    excuse. I think the problem is perfectly solved now, given that she already became the goddaughter of


    the Chambers family. She was more than qualified to be the match of the owner of a small publishing


    house."


    Helena looked at Carson silently. He was smiling, and nothing in his eyes has changed when he heard


    the word "goddaughter". Hna now appreciated him even more.


    "Carson, you''re an excellent young man. Even my son, Zach, is not as good-looking as you, but to be


    honest, I felt as ttered as concerned to see you pursuing my goddaughter." Helena said.
