The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 72

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash 72

Chapter 72 

She continued, “I was wrong to investigate Madeleine, I 

apologize. I’ll help her get some payback to make up for it. That 

should be enough, right?” 

“Mm.” 

Roderick’s furrowed brow relaxed. “That’s more like it.” 

After chatting with Rebecca for a few more moments, Roderick 

hung up. He was about to go back to the dining room to eat 

when his phone rang again. 

In the dining room, Madeleine was holding half a glass of juice, craning her neck to look in the direction where Roderick had just disappeared while she drank. 

It’s been so long… 

A phone call this long? 

How interesting. 

Kirsten came out of the kitchen with a fresh batch of Savory 

Soup Dumplings and couldn’t help but laugh when she saw 

Chapter 72 

Madeleine puffing her cheeks while sucking hard on her juice. 

“Ma’am, do you have a grudge against that juice? 

You’re about to bite through the straw.” 

Madeleine slammed the glass down on the table. “Kirsten! 

I want braised pig’s trotters! 

Now! 

Right now! 

Immediately!” 

Kirsten was taken aback. “Something so greasy this early in the 

morning?” 

Just as she finished speaking, a certain ‘braised pig’s trotter‘ 

walked in after finishing his call, looking a bit confused when he 

heard that. 

“You’re eating that for breakfast?” 

Madeleine pouted. “Can’t I?” 

“Yeah, we can… but let’s do it tomorrow. We don’t have time

today.” 

“Don’t have time? 

What’s going on today?” 

Roderick hesitated for a long moment before finally saying, “My 

dad just called. He wants us to come over for lunch.” 

Madeleine’s eyelid twitched. 

She was going to meet Roderick’s dad! 

Before Madeleine could even react, Kirsten’s voice trembled 

from the side, “Sir, you’re not actually planning to take 

Madeleine with you, are you?” 

Kevin got nervous too. “Dad, why don’t you just go by yourself? 

Mom and I will stay home.” 

Madeleine looked at them in surprise, then a corner of her 

mouth twitched as she understood. 

The past version of herself must have caused some trouble at the Livingston family’s house. 

Chapter 72 

Roderick’s father was a very serious man. When Madeleine was 

little, she heard people say that the only reason Roderick didn’t 

go astray was thanks to his father’s strict discipline. 

Roderick’s parents divorced when he was very young. 

Madeleine didn’t have much of an impression of his mother, 

only remembering that she was a beautiful and unique artist. 

After the divorce, Mrs. Livingston went abroad to pursue her 

dreams, while Owen Livingston raised Roderick and managed 

the company on his own. 

Back then, he really liked Madeleine, and every time he saw her, 

he would smile and say he wanted a daughter just like Maddie. 

Sigh… It looked like she had disappointed Owen, too. 

“It’s okay.” 

Roderick knew what everyone was worried about and 

comforted them in a low voice, “I’m here.” 

Madeleine felt a sense of peace hearing that, but Kirsten and 

her son didn’t think the same way. Their gazes toward Roderick 

were filled with more pity and worry. 

After breakfast, she went back to her room and called Clarissa 

Chapter 72 

Mosley first. 

“Maddie, what’s wrong?” 

Clarissa’s voice sounded cheerful. Ever since her daughter lost 

her memory and stopped causing trouble, her back didn’t ache, 

her legs didn’t hurt, and she even had a spring in her step! 

“Mom, Roderick said he’s taking me to his dad’s place for dinner 

later. Do you think I should buy something to bring over?” 

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line. 

Then, a gloomy voice came through, “Just bring your brain. 

Don’t bring the memories from those eight years…” 

Madeleine’s mouth twitched. 

“Mom, you’re really my mother, aren’t you.” 

She sighed, leaned against the bed, and suddenly asked, “Mom, 

have you ever wondered why I became like that during the eight 

years I can’t remember?” 

“Of course I have. At first, I thought you were sick. Later, I 

thought you were possessed. Your dad and I even made you 

drink blessed water from a Taoist charm.” 

Chapter 72 

“Blessed water from a Taoist charm?” 

Madeleine gave a dry laugh. “So you guys also thought I had a 

ghost possession, huh?” 

“What else could it be? You were a perfectly normal person, all 

sweet and lovey–dovey with Roderick, then you suddenly had a 

complete personality change and insisted on clinging to that. 

Mr. Carroll.” 

Madeleine didn’t notice Clarissa had used “sweet and lovey- 

dovey” to describe them. She just hesitantly asked the question 

that had been weighing on her mind for a long time: 

“Mom, did you ever think that for the past eight years, I wasn’t 

me?” 

“You weren’t you? 

You’re having a relapse, aren’t you, dear.” 

Clarissa grew anxious, her speaking speed increasing. 

“Where are you? Do your dad and I need to come see you? Oh dear, you just started getting back to normal…”
