Chapter 536

Eloise and Sean, who had not left the hospital, almost fell when their legs went weak after learning that Madeline and Jeremy had been involved in a car accident.

They hurried to the emergency room and saw Jeremy who was waiting outside. He was sitting motionless on the chair, his hands still dripping with blood.

His whole person seemed to be frozen, and his body exuded a cold, bitter air. Approaching him was as if being stabbed by the sharp ice skates on his body.

Eloise still remembered what happened three years ago when Madeline was sent to the operating table. Jeremy had also been like this, frightened out of his mind.

Eloise seemed to understand at this moment why Jeremy had been uncharacteristically angry at her and Meredith back then. It was because he was afraid of something happening to Madeline.

Now, Eloise also had a foreboding. She really did not want the scene three years ago to recreate itself again.

Seeing the red light coming on outside the emergency room, Eloise and Sean’s hearts were tight.

‘Madeline, please be alright. Don’t punish your parents and your children with this…’

Karen and Yvonne learned that Madeline was in a car accident and was now being operated on in the emergency room. They immediately rushed over with joy.

Seeing that Eloise and Sean were also there, Karen chose to ignore them and walked straight toward Jeremy.

Seeing Jeremy’s bleeding hands, Karen looked nervous. “Jeremy, your hand is injured. We need to stop the bleeding!”

She pulled Jeremy as she said this, but before she could even touch the corner of Jeremy’s clothes, she heard him saying coldly, “Stay away from me.”

Karen was embarrassed for a moment, finding it hard to hold onto her pride a little.

Seeing this, Yvonne immediately took out a tissue and leaned over to Jeremy with concern. “Jeremy, don’t do this. Aunty cares about you. Look at you, you’ve lost a lot of blood. It’s really distressing.”

She said in a worried tone as she reached out to wipe Jeremy’s wounds.

Yet, she unexpectedly heard Jeremy’s frosty reply. “Go away. Don’t touch me.”

Yvonne pursed her lips, feeling aggrieved. “Jeremy, I also care about you—”

“I don’t need your care. Don’t get close to me. Get out.”

“…”

“Jeremy, how can you talk to Yvonne like this? She’s your cousin!”

“My cousin?” Jeremy’s tall, handsome figure stood up slowly. His deep eyes were drooping, and the shadows that shrouded him were terrifying. “My wife is the one who’s lying in the emergency room with the doctors fighting for her life. She’s in between life and death. Did I ask for a cousin to care about me?”

“…”

“Go away! Get away! I don’t want to see this so-called cousin!”

He was unexpectedly so disgusted, causing Yvonne to be frozen in place with embarrassment and dissatisfaction.

“What kind of wife is she? She has had sex with other men since a long time ago and even poisoned and murdered your grandfather. It’s not a shame for such a woman to die!” Karen said vexedly.

“Karen, what are you even saying? How is it not a pity for anyone who would lose their life? How can you slander my daughter like this?!” Eloise and Sean rushed in angrily.

“What Aunty said is the truth!” Yvonne chipped in.

Bang!

Jeremy slammed a fist against the wall as a chilling light shot out from his cold eyes. “If you slander Linnie again, don’t blame me for not being considerate of our relationship!”

Karen’s mouth twitched with fright as she quickly shut her mouth. Even Yvonne did not even dare to breathe.

Eloise was so angry that she was about to retort when the lights in the operating room suddenly went out.

Jeremy raised his eyes all of a sudden and saw the door of the operating room opening. He ran toward the doctor in a white coat in large strides with an anxious expression. “Doctor, how’s my wife? How is she?!”
