You, Me And Our Genius Twins Chapter 189

Chapter 189 Lost

Madeline was afraid.

Not only did she suffer from a high fever, the red bumps all over her body had also made her unsightly.

She was too young to know that measles was an infectious disease whose fatality rate was, in fact, not high.

Just the words ‘infectious disease’ was enough to scare her so badly that she thought she would definitely die.

That night, she was alone in a hospital bed and the only thing she could do was wait for her death.

Later on, Logan and Luke sneaked into the ward to accompany her after they found her.

They wouldn’t leave even if she chased them away.

She told them that infectious diseases were contagious, and that they were scary and deadly.

Logan, in return, said that she would not die. He then reassured her that they would accompany her, and that she would definitely overcome the disease.

Luke was 2 years younger than Logan, which means that Logan was only 1 or 2 years older than her. Hence, he could be considered to be just a naive teenager.

When Logan heard that she would die, he was so scared that he immediately held her hand and started crying.

He said that he wasn’t afraid of death and that the both of them would follow her to the afterlife if she were to die.

They refused to leave her no matter what she said.

And so, the boys would hide when the doctors and nurses made their rounds.

They would run to her side to accompany her after the doctors and nurses had left. Besides that, Luke would always sneak out to buy her favorite snacks when no one noticed whereas Logan would repeatedly soak a towel to cool her down physically.

Her body still felt terrible to the point where she always felt that she was dying, but at least she had Logan and Luke by her side now. With them there, she no longer felt lonely.

As sleepy as Madeline was, she would keep looking at the brothers instead of going to sleep.

At the time, she thought of the boys as her family, and that she had a family just like everyone else did.

She was sure that they would be together forever no matter what might happen in the future. Nothing could ever tear them apart…

Alas, it had come to this…

Destiny was really something that no one could control. Madeline never thought that Luke would fall in love with her, and even want to marry her.

She had always thought of him as her brother.

How could siblings ever get married?

So, she rejected him.

What Madeline didn’t expect was that Luke would try to force himself on her after that.

Now that they had gotten to the point of no return, the only thing that could be done was for Logan to leave with Luke.

The family that she had thought would never be separated all her life was finally parting ways…

Even now, she was witnessing her most cherished brother beating her other brother.

She suddenly couldn’t take it anymore. Rushing over to Logan, she grabbed his raised hand and muttered in a choked-up voice, “Forget it, Logan. Just let it go…”

Nothing seemed to be unforgivable when she thought about the time Luke had said that he would die with her while crying his eyes out.

She had forgiven him.

She really had…

When Logan heard that, he slowly lowered his hand and threw the belt at Luke. His hand then tentatively went to the back of her head. “Maddie.” He sighed sadly. “You have always been so softhearted… You will be taken advantage of if you keep doing this… You will always be on the short end of the stick…”

She shook her head desperately and threw her arms around him. “Logan… I miss you so much… I miss our home…” she cried.

Although the house was small and shabby, it was the only place she could completely lower her walls down. It was a place that she truly thought was home.

She had lived in many different places before.

The Taylor Residence in Worrick, the Wendel Residence in Wendel City, and the Hart Residence in Dusktown were all the places she had stayed, but the only place she would really call ‘home’ was the small house that she lived in along with Logan and Luke.

She missed that home.

She really, truly missed it.

“I’m sorry…” Luke, who was still on the ground, suddenly apologized. “Maddie, I’m sorry… I know that I was wrong. I swear I will never act like a scumbag again. I will have Logan stop caring about me if I ever do something like that again…”

He then lifted his head and looked at her. “Maddie, will you forgive me?”

Madeline wiped off the tears on her face and lowered her eyes to look at him before making sure he was telling the truth. “Will you really never do something like that again?”

“Really, really! I swear!” He raised his right hand. “Logan will stop caring about me for life if I ever make you angry again!”

“Liar!” she rebutted. “Logan would never do that.”

“If that is the case, you can—”

“It is fine,” she interrupted him before he could say anything else. She then turned to look at Quinton and politely asked, “Can you get a doctor here, please?”

“Mrs. Hart, you don’t have to be so polite with me! I will go right now!” Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Quinton went and notified the guard outside to bring the doctor.

Madeline looked back at Luke and warned, “This is your last chance. I really, really, really won’t forgive you anymore if there is a next time!”

Luke nodded, and he was about to start throwing promises again when she cut him off again.

“I said to forget it. I don’t need you to swear anything. Only your conscience and will can keep you in line. There is no point in making oats when you don’t have your conscience and will!”

She turned to Logan and said, “Why don’t you help him up, Logan?”

Logan nodded and bent over to help his brother up the floor.

“Let’s sit down and talk.” Madeline pointed to the sofa. She had a lot to ask and say to them after not meeting for such a long time.

As Logan brought Luke to the sofa, she noticed that Logan was limping on his left leg.

She immediately felt like a cold hand was tearing into her chest and pulling out her heart when she saw that. “Logan, your leg…” she hesitantly began.

“I am okay…” He took a few pieces of tissue from the coffee table and wiped the blood on Luke’s back, and after making sure that the sofa would not be soiled, he helped Luke to sit down on the sofa.

Logan turned to look at her again, and gently said, “I walked too much too fast today. I am a little tired. I will be okay after resting tonight.”

Madeline felt like crying again after hearing that.

Her eyes were already swollen from crying so much earlier.

Sebastian, who had been quiet all this while, went to the kitchen and found an ice pack. He then wrapped it in a towel before handing it to her. “Don’t cry anymore. Your eyes are already swollen like peaches. How will you explain to Aldo and Buddy after they wake up?”

She quickly took a few deep breaths and put the towel on her eyes in an attempt to hold back her tears.

“Are Aldo and Buddy alright?” Logan asked.

“They are fine,” Madeline replied. “The doctor said that they will be alright after they wake up from their sleep.”

Logan was ridden by guilt as he listened to her words. “I’m sorry…” he whispered. He didn’t know what he could do to make up for his and Luke’s mistake.

“Forget it, Logan. It is in the past now. Let’s not talk about this anymore.” She removed the towel from her eyes and flashed a smile in Logan’s way. “Let’s talk about you and… Luke. How have you been these two years?”

He nodded in reply. “Everything has been good.”

With the exception of how much he had missed her, of course.

During their poorest and most difficult times in Worrick, Logan would always think of their home in Capitol. He would recall the enormous villa and all the tasty food he and his younger brother enjoyed when their mother was still alive.

He always thought that he would take Madeline home with him if he could get everything that should have belonged to him and Luke back.

Logan also thought that someone as lovable and beautiful as her should live in their big villa being served by servants, wear only the most beautiful clothes, and eat the most delicious foods. He hoped

that he would have the opportunity to share all the good things with Madeline in his lifetime.

In the end, he finally received his wish for revenge and had taken back everything that should have belonged to them.

At last, Logan and his brother had returned to the enormous villa, where they were served by countless servants and able to eat the best dishes. However, he had lost his most beloved baby sister.

The person who he wanted to share his life with the most was no longer there with him.

Everything that he owned didn’t seem all that important anymore at that moment…
