Madison's tension immediately dissipated upon hearing her question.
Natalie asking such a question meant that she still didn't know who her mother was.
She only knew that Madison wasn't the one who gave birth to her.
Madison's eyes shifted nervously.
She planned to not tell Natalie about it, even if she was dying.
Cecilia seemed to be living a good life right then. If Cecilia was to reunite with her own daughter, then Cecilia's only regret would be resolved as well.
Madison would never allow such a thing to happen.
She wanted to make sure that Natalie and Cecilia never reunited!
"I don't know!" Madison said.
Natalie was furious.
"I'm not going to show you mercy if you don't tell me!"
There was a hint of cruelty in Natalie's eyes as she spoke.
Madison was shocked that she could act this way.
She suddenly realized that Natalie was different somehow.
Natalie was never a well-behaved person ever since she was young. When Madison scolded or beat her, she would always resist despite her resistance only leading to more cruel abuse.
However, Natalie's eyes only showed a hint of stubbornness before.
And yet her eyes seemed to be ferocious now, like a wolf waiting in the night.
Madison realized that if she did not reveal the truth that day, Natalie would definitely not show mercy on her.
Moreover, Natalie had brought so many bodyguards with her, so she must have made ample preparations. If Madison chose to be silent, she would surely be tortured.
James was the only person in the family now who could subdue Natalie.
A moment later saw Madison suddenly cradling her head in her hands as she said, "Oh, my head hurts. My dizziness is back."
Natalie was stunned.
"Madison, enough with the act. I'll make you talk even if you pretend to be unconscious!" Just as Natalie finished speaking, Madison suddenly fell to the floor.
Bang!
Madison was extremely fat so such a sudden fall naturally made a thunderous sound.
She had also fallen head-first onto the floor, which meant that such an impact caused her to actually pass out.
Madison was sent to the hospital.
Even though they were now at the hospital, Natalie was not planning on letting Madison go.
The doctor said that Madison was in no danger and that she should be waking up soon.
Natalie waited outside the ward for her to awaken.
She never expected Madison to be so shameless that she would pretend to be unconscious to avoid a problem.
Nonetheless, the matter wasn't as simple as Natalie thought it was. Once the afternoon arrived, James did too.
Upon seeing him, Natalie felt a surge of indescribable emotion.
He was not her biological father.
But despite the lack of a biological relationship between them, she still loved him as a father.
"Dad," Natalie cried out.
"Natalie." James' expression was edgy. "Queenie called me to say that something happened to Madison and that she had been sent to the hospital. I happened to fly into Beverly City from the United States yesterday so I quickly came here. How is your mother?"
"Dad, Madison is not my mother," Natalie said quietly.
James was stunned.
He took a moment before giving Natalie a disbelieving look. "Silly child, what are you talking about?"
"Dad, I know everything. I know I'm not Madison's biological daughter. You don't have to hide it from me." She stared into James' eyes.
