Chapter 1266

Madeline raised her gaze when she heard Ryan’s comment and saw the gleam in his sparkling eyes that was expressing his urge to conquer her.

‘He’s really stubborn.’

Suddenly, Ryan grabbed Madeline’s finger that was bleeding.

She tried to pull back, not wanting Ryan to grasp her too tightly. He then lowered his head and sealed his lips over her injury that was still bleeding, as if he was trying to tend to her injury.

“What are you doing?” Madeline was feeling restless as she summoned her remaining force to push Ryan aside.

Ryan gently licked the bloodstain with his lip. The taste of the fresh blood from her fingertips put a satisfactory smile on his fair face, making him look almost devilish.

Madeline had never seen such a smile and it gave her chills throughout her body.

Ryan’s smile got wider when he noticed the fear in her eyes.

“I thought that you’re fearless, but it turns out there are times when you’re afraid as well.” He inched closer to her, and each step that he took made Madeline grow more resistant to him. “Your blood is very precious, have you forgotten? That’s why it’s best if you take good care of yourself.”

Madeline glanced at Ryan. She could no longer read what was going on in his mind.

Ryan was not concerned about Madeline’s orbs that were glittering with curiosity. He leaned forward to kiss her face, but Madeline got away from him. Ryan did not manage to touch her and just managed to sniff the fragrance emanating from her hair.

He pursed his lips, and his eyes seemed calm. “Have your wound bandaged and eat well. In another two days, I’ll bring you over to meet two people. I believe you’ll be thrilled to meet these two people.”

Madeline spun around, ignoring Ryan. She did not wish to face him.

Ryan did not stay much longer. He opened the door and ordered the servants to deliver a first aid kit and meal over to Madeline. He also told them to get the room cleaned up.

As Ryan looked out the window, his lips twitched.

‘No one’s going to find this place, and no one can stop me from obtaining the ultimate victory.’

…

Jeremy boarded the plane and headed to Y Country. He was unable to calm himself.

That was because up to that point, he was still unable to figure out the location in Y Country where Ryan had brought Madeline to.

Frustrated, he looked at the scenery outside the window to distract himself. The sky was blue, but his feelings were gloomy.

Many years had passed, but he never once loved her wholeheartedly.

In the years when she was willing to sacrifice everything for him, Jeremy let her down and eventually even left a crack in their relationship.

Now, Madeline was still willing to put her life on the line for him, but what about him?

Perhaps it was his frustrated feelings, or maybe it was the poison in his body, but Jeremy needed to calm himself down and made his way to the smoking zone.

However, after taking out a cigarette, he recalled Madeline’s reminder.

“Jeremy, stop smoking. Smoking is not good for your body. I don’t wish to see anything else happening to you. I want you to be healthy.”

Her voice was like a summer breeze, tickling his ears. It was as if he was still able to hear it crystal clear.

“I’ll listen to you, Linnie.” Jeremy stared at the wedding ring passionately before turning around and leaving the smoking zone.

As soon as he left, the plane suddenly shook vigorously and tilted about 45 degrees.

Jeremy did not have enough time to grab the bar above. His body slanted and he knocked his head hard against the wall of the cabin.

The plane was still shaking vigorously. Jeremy wanted to pull himself away from the ground by holding the railing, but suddenly, he felt dizzy. The scene before him became blurry…

He saw Montgomery Manor from his memory, and the fierce flames were reflected in his orbs. Just when the fire was quickly spreading, he saw two silhouettes. They belonged to Eloise and Sean!

Jeremy’s pupils suddenly shrunk as the memory that he lost came flashing in his mind!
