Chapter 845
Madelyn stood anxiously outside the surgery room. “I’ll wait,” she murmured, her fingers growing cold. With each
passing moment, the unsettling thought grew: Dalton might be her child.
Dalton was in the room next door when he had a fall. Madelyn had felt like she had a strange connection with him.
A sudden pain in her heart startled her out of her coma.
In her dream, the child she had seen looked exactly like Dalton, which left her puzzled. She vividly remembered
expecting a daughter in her past life, not a son. ‘Is all of this just in my head?’ she wondered. ‘ It can’t be possible

Madelyn suddenly felt weak and began to fall. Zach moved quickly, catching her just in time. She caught a glimpse
of him just before everything turned dark, going limp in his arms.
“Kevin, call Kai! Hurry!” Zach ordered.
Kevin saw the worry on Zach’s face and dialed Kai’s number. Kai was at a research lab but rushed to the hospital
upon receiving the message. As Madelyn’s primary doctor, he examined her. After a few moments, he appeared
less concerned, indicating that Madelyn was going to be alright.
“She’s okay, but very tired. When she wakes up, make sure she eats something healthy. She should rest as much as
possible,” Kai advised.
Zach, holding Madelyn’s hand gently, turned his attention to Kevin. “What happened to Dal? He was fine before.
Why is he hurt now?”
Kai looked at Kevin and then turned to Zach. “Don’t be too hard on Kevin. I heard Dal fell from his bed and bumped
his nose. It’s a minor injury. After he’s treated, keep an eye on him; kids bounce back quickly.”
Just then, a nurse walked in. “Dr. Stewart, we’ve moved the child to another room.”
Kai nodded quickly. “Thanks.” After the nurse left, Kai turned to Zach. “Don’t you want to see him?” Zach replied,
“There’s no need to.”
Kai observed Zach thoughtfully, ‘I understand why Zach would say that. Marrying Yvonne before really loving
Madelyn was a big mistake. Zach might be able to make amends, but Madelyn could be really upset about Ethan

close call for Dalton at the hospital. But why does Madelyn have such a strong connection to a child she just
welcomed into her family?’ After pondering it, Kai thought, ‘Maybe it’s just the way things unfolded.’
When Margaret returned from her grocery run, she was surprised to hear about Dalton. “Mr. Jardin,” she started
cautiously, “I thought Dal was with you, which is why I went out.”
Zach was deeply focused on Madelyn, his visible concern for her far more important than any frustration about
Dalton’s accident. Watching this, Margaret felt both relieved and guilty. She wasn’t scolded, but she couldn’t rid
herself of the sense of responsibility. After Zach requested some oatmeal, she headed to the kitchenette.
Consumed by regret, she lightly tapped her cheek while murmuring, “I should have returned sooner. Then Dal
wouldn’t have been hurt.”
