Chapter 608
Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife
âIâm undeserving of you. Goodbye, my dearest Linnie, my one and only.â
Jeremy looked at Madeline for one last time and silently turned around.
Tears welled from deep inside, streaming down his cheeks.
He knew that it was all his own doing. He could not blame anyone but himself.
âMy heart hurts so much. It feels like I canât breathe.â
As the ship got closer, the intensity of the sea breeze increased.
The wind messed up Madelineâs hair. She tried to tidy her hair and caught a glimpse of Jeremy who was about to leave.
Madelineâs heart felt as though it was being stabbed when she saw him.
In a daze, something fell from Madelineâs hand.
She bent down to pick it up. Unfortunately, she stumbled and lost her center of gravity.
Ah!
Jeremy, who was not too far off, heard Madelineâs cry for help. Then, he heard the sound of someone falling into the water.
His heartbeat immediately increased. When he turned around, he did not see Madelineâs figure and only saw a ripple on the shore.
âLinnie,â he said her name softly, and in the next second, he ran over as fast as he could.
âLinnie!â
He called out to Madeline as he jumped into the sea.
When Felipe saw what was happening from the boat, he was worried that Madeline would be injured.
However, he was still far from where Madeline fell into the water and he did not want to swim the distance.
The moment Madeline fell into the sea, she drank a few mouthfuls of seawater.
She did not know how to swim and was struggling to stay afloat.
She gradually lost her strength to continue paddling.
When she was losing her consciousness, a familiar image appeared in her mind.
In that icy and snowy scene, she did not know how to swim but had jumped into the frozen lake.
Jeremy jumped in with her. He grabbed her and wanted to drag her to shore, but she stubbornly pushed him away, saying that she did not need his help.
âIs that my missing memory?â Madeline asked herself but could not be sure.
She swallowed more seawater and eventually lost her consciousness.
It was also at that moment that Jeremy got to her.
He dragged her until she was ashore, but Madeline was no longer responsive.
âLinnie, Linnie, please wake up.â Jeremy patted her pale cheeks in a panic.
Seeing that Madeline was not responding at all, he began to do CPR on her. He kept calling her name.
âLinnie, wake up, Linnie! Please donât let anything happen to you. Linnie, you canât just leave me like this, Linnieâ¦â
He begged and begged for her to wake up. He kept going with the CPR. His wound was torn apart again and the dazzling bright red blood spread across his top.
For Jeremy, those ten plus seconds felt like ten years.
Madelineâs condition was freaking him out.
He lowered his head again to give Madeline CPR, and when he touched her lips, she was cold.
âLinnie, please wake up!â
Tears came out of his eyes.
Madelineâs unresponsiveness made him cry like a child while he continued to give CPR.
âLinnie, donât torture me like this. I know Iâm in the wrong. I regret not treating you right. Donât punish me in this way. Linnie, I love you. I really love you. Can you wake up? Wake up and see how Iâm regretting it, Linnie!â
