Chapter 1662
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
He quickly removed his coat and placed it over Madeline.
However, it did not seem that Madeline was becoming better at all.
âLinnie, what happened to you? Where does it hurt?â
âJeremy, itâs useless no matter how many coats you give her. Sheâll still feel cold, and sheâll still be in so much pain she wonât be able to breathe freely.â
Jeremy lifted his eyes suddenly. His frosty, cold eyes were stabbing straight at Shirley.
âWhat did you say? What do you mean?â
Shirley took a long drag of her cigarette. âJeremy, youâre so smart and you still canât tell whatâs wrong with your wife?â
Jeremyâs pupils constricted, and he spotted the anti-toxoid test reagent in Shirleyâs hand. âItâs indeed you. Shirley Brown, what are you trying to do?â
âNothing. I just want to do an experiment.â Shirley chuckled lightly. âFor your sake, just treat this as a gift for our acquaintance. Next time, you might not be so lucky.â
After Shirley said this, she threw the anti-toxoid test reagent in her hand to Jeremy.
Jeremy lifted his hand to catch it. Then, he took a look at the tiny bottle of anti-toxoid test reagent in his hand. He wanted to stop Shirley to ask her a few questions but she had already left.
Madeline was in a bad shape right now and he did not have the mood to bother with Shirley. As such, he carried Madeline and ran back to the hotel.
He booked another room and carried Madeline who was shaking all over into the room.
However, even though the heater was on, Madeline was still shaking furiously.
Her face was initially pale with a pinkish blush, but now, her face was as pale as a white sheet of paper.
Jeremy held Madelineâs hand and realized that her hands were very cold as well.
âLinnie.â
âJeremy, Iâm so cold. This place hurts as well,â Madeline used all of her energy to say with much difficulty.
âLinnie, donât be scared. You wonât be in pain soon.â Jeremy comforted softly. His heart was so anxious.
He immediately took out the anti-toxoid test reagent that Shirley had tossed at him earlier. After drawing the liquid into the syringe that came with it, Jeremy did not hesitate to inject the liquid in the glass syringe into Madelineâs vein.
Madeline furrowed her eyebrows together and felt the bone-piercing coolness travel to every inch of her body.
She had never felt so cold before. She was so cold she was suffocating and her breathing was labored.
She felt so cold that she could not even take in a breath.
Looking at Madeline who was in so much pain, Jeremy held her while feeling his heart break. He lay down next to her and tried his best to give her the warmth she wanted.
Time passed slowly, and Madelineâs body was not shaking as much as before. Then, she gradually fell asleep.
Jeremy felt more at ease when he saw that Madeline was not suffering as much anymore.
He kissed the space between Madelineâs eyebrows, his eyes filled with heartache and doting. However, at the same time, there was also an intense and threatening rage brewing within him.
He grabbed his coat and picked up his phone to make a call. He got straight to the point and asked, âWhere are you?â
