Chapter 1101
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Jeremy felt his heart skip a beat as he lifted his head to look at Madeline.
However, she was not awake. She only grabbed his hand subconsciously, yet she was still so strong.
âJeremy, donât leave me againâ¦â she said in her sleep. She had no idea he was next to her.
Jeremy grabbed her hand and kissed the back of her hand. There were so many deep emotions on his handsome face.
âLinnie, no matter where I go, youâll always be my only one.â
Jeremy sat on the side of the bed and looked at the sleeping face in satisfaction.
He fed Madeline an antipyretic. After that, he just stayed and watched her silently.
He stayed there for the entire afternoon. When he felt that her forehead was no longer as hot, Jeremy tested her temperature and noticed that her fever had indeed gone down.
He was feeling much relieved and decided to leave.
He took out a jewelry box from his pocket. Then, after he placed it down, he looked intensely at Madeline.
âLinnie, goodbye. Donât miss me,â he said before turning around to leave. At this moment, he heard a womanâs scream from downstairs.
âRyan, I didnât expect you to hide from me!â
Jeremy felt that the sound was familiar. When he was wondering who it was, he noticed that Madeline was already awake.
When Madeline opened her eyes, Jeremy had just stepped out of the room in time.
She furrowed her brows when she heard Naomiâs screeches.
Madeline sat up and saw a jewelry box on the head of the bed.
She knew the jewelry box. It was the box she had put her wedding ring and the letters in. She had left it in the villa they bought after they got married, so why was it here now?
She opened it and saw the bookmark that Jeremy gave her when they were kids.
Was he here?
He was here!
Madeline smelled a familiar scent.
She quickly lifted her blanket and jumped out of bed. When she got downstairs, she did not see Jeremy, but instead, she saw Naomi charging toward her aggressively.
When she saw Madeline running downstairs in her pajamas, Naomiâs face turned dark immediately.
âRyan, you didnât even touch me when we were together and now youâre canoodling with this woman in broad daylight?! I guess you never loved me!â
However, Madeline completely ignored Naomi. She was eager to look for the special scent as she rushed out.
However, the pain from the injury of her knee and ankle forced her to slow down.
Ryan was worried that something bad would happen to Madeline, so he chased after her. âEveline, why are you here? Go back to your room.â
Madeline pushed away Ryanâs hands that were trying to stop her and was extremely emotional. âI smelled him! Heâs nearby!â
Ryan knew Madelineâs sense of smell was impeccable, but he did not expect it to be so sharp.
Jeremy had indeed left from the backdoor.
However, if Madeline really saw Jeremy in this state, it would only hurt her more.
This was the first time Ryan held Madeline in such a domineering way as he trapped Madeline firmly in his arms. âEveline, youâre sick and itâs very windy outside.â
âLet me go! I want to go find him! Heâs nearby! I know it!â Madeline used all of her might to push Ryan away.
However, her body was weak right now, so she could not push away a well-built man.
Madelineâs eyes were red as she looked around dazedly.
âJeremy, I know youâre here. Come out and see me now!â
âJeremy is here?â
Naomi was stunned. When she saw Ryan holding Madeline this way, she felt jealousy rising in her chest.
âRye, just look at this woman. Sheâs already married to you and sheâs still thinking about Jeremy. Why did you marry a woman like her? If she wants to go look for Jeremy, then just let her!â
