Madison was walking outside of the shopping square to get the materials her boss asked her to.
She worked as Mr. Wilson’s personal secretary and accompanied him everywhere including when he intended to do his personal shopping too.
It had been five years working for him and they were comfortable with each other on personal levels too.
Today was another day when she could tell the boss had no good kickstart morning because he looked distracted throughout the working hours.
It also could be the reason for he had forgotten to order her to buy the same golden lilies from the same flower shop to celebrate the death anniversary of his mother.
He said he had no idea of how could he forget to do so. Madison had taken a few days to leave so in her absence, her substitute must have looked over it or missed it by mistakenly.
So here she was walking out of the store, after buying the golden lilies. Kian’s Mercedes Benz was parked by the side.
It was then she collided with someone, dropping the flowers and a few passerby’s stepped on it, walking away. She was so angry that she wanted to scream at the one who collided with her.
But then saw who it was and her eyes could not believe that it was none other than Tinsley Rutherford and that too in a condition, she could not take her eyes off of her.
The girl looked dead, her forehead was bleeding, dried blood pasted on her pale skin, cuts on the corner of her lips, bluish-black bruises on her cheeks.
“Oh my God, what happened to you?? Did you get into an accident or something??”
She asked trying to get any kind of response from her as Tinsley was just shaking her head abnormally, giving no heads to what Madison was asking. It seemed like she was in a hurry.
Even though Madison did not like her but this was something else. When she did not return from Josh’s party, they thought she stayed with him.
Although Anna Maria, her grandmother called Tinsley many times to check up on her and did not get any answer, Madison told her that the girl was one ignorant bitch.
Once she got what she wanted, she left without an answer. It was simple but looking at her now, something very wrong must have had happened and they did not even know about it if not for this chance encounter.
Before Madison could interrogate more, Tinsley had pushed her hands off, trying to move past her. But she stopped her right away. She could see that her mind was getting dizzy by how her stature was not stable.
“Hey…hey wait. You are not in the right state to move past. Were you not with Josh?? What the hell happened to you?”
And the reply to her question was a quick fall off by a losing conscious Tinsley.
Before Madison could hold her, Kian walked in and held the falling female in his arms and could not believe his eyes when he saw who it was.
He swore to God that he would make a safe distance from her and right now he was holding her. He could not believe how they met again.
But then he saw the dreadful look she was wearing and he could not help but think of what must have had happened to her because the night before she was looking fine with definitely no bruises on the face, her the cuts on the lip corners and the dried blood stains on her forehead.
“Thank God, you are here, Mr Wilson. We need to take her to the hospital. ”
Madison said, sounding stressed. Somehow in the middle, she felt responsible for what had happened to Tinsley.
She was aware of the fact that Tinsley had no one after her dead parents and she was the reason that forced her out of their house.
“No, we cannot. ”
Kian replied quickly. If he bought her to the hospital, the news would circulate all over the media giving a wrong impression. And he hated controversies.
“Why not?”
Madison raised her voice. She was worried about Tinsley.
“I will take her to my condo and get her checked there. It’s not too far from here either. Hospital is too open. ”
Kian said and Madison found herself understanding. How could she forget about her boss’s life? She just got too absorbed in with Tinsley’s condition.
“Let’s hurry then. We must not delay.”
Madison nodded to what Kian told and he carried her bridal style to the Mercedes Benz. Madison helped him set Tinsley in the backseat with him and she got inside the driver’s seat driving them off.
Kian held her face on his lap throughout the journey and could not help but feel bad about the entire ordeal.
When he was busy cursing her for stealing his clothes even after writing a letter to him that she would return him everything, she was getting beaten somewhere by some brute and he wanted nothing more but to beat that piece of shit back for daring to hit a woman.
Maybe he should have been extra careful with her. He did see what happened to her. Losing her parents and her fiance dumping her right after was too much for anybody. Plus her parents named everything after Josh and not her was the cherry in the icing.
She had nothing and she had no one to lean to either. He should have never let her go.
“Do you know her boss?”
Madison found herself asking the question for she had never seen her boss agreeing to take a random woman just for help.
Kian was taken off guard by the question. He knew that lying was not the solution.
“Of course. She is Tinsley Rutherford.”
He answered, trying to sound as if it was obvious.
Madison nodded positively although it was hard to believe that Mr Wilson even knew who she was for he had no knowledge about anyone outside the business world and that was strange for Tinsley was never associated with any kind of business ever.
They soon reached his condominium. And Kian rushed out in hurry with Tinsley, Madison followed after them.
