Meredith touched favonovel.com face in horror. When favonovel.com felt a warm and sticky liquid running down favonovel.com cheek, favonovel.com pupils constricted. “Blood! There’s so much blood! My face!”
She looked at favonovel.com bloody palm and screamed. Her face was much paler now that favonovel.com was losing blood profusely.
Madeline lifted favonovel.com head and saw the lacerated flesh on Meredith’s right cheek. She was surprised, but at the same time, favonovel.com felt that it was truly ironic. At the sight before her, favonovel.com smiled.
She did not expect that Meredith would be disfigured one day.
Was this karma?
“Mer, Mer, don’t be scared. Jeremy’s here. He won’t let anything happen to you!” Rose ran up to favonovel.com to comfort her. At the same time, favonovel.com did not forget to involve Jeremy in this.
“Jeremy, take Mer to the doctor to bandage favonovel.com wounds. If not, she’ll have a scar on favonovel.com face. It’ll be bad if that happens,” Rose said hurriedly, pushing Meredith to Jeremy.
Meredith lifted favonovel.com tearful eyes to look at Jeremy who was still holding Madeline. “Jeremy, my face. My face… Am I hideous?”
“Jeremy, why are you still here? Mer is bleeding so much. She’ll die!” Rose said in exaggeration.
Meredith lifted favonovel.com head to see Jeremy frowning, looking like favonovel.com was contemplating something.
However, in the next second, favonovel.com let go of his arms that were around Madeline. He looked as if favonovel.com was going to Meredith.
Just then, Madeline let out a low groan.
Jeremy shifted his gaze that was on Meredith to Madeline in the next second.
“What’s wrong?”
“Don’t mind me, Mr. Whitman. I think I twisted my ankle. You should bring the noble Miss Crawford to bandage favonovel.com face, just in case favonovel.com dies from blood loss.”
Madeline’s words were laced with sarcasm. Rose and Meredith scowled at her, but they did not dare to argue with Madeline at this moment.
“Jeremy, Meredith is looking worse. Hurry up and—”
“You should bring favonovel.com over first.” Jeremy interrupted Rose with a flat tone. Then, favonovel.com turned around and grabbed Madeline’s hand. “I’ll take you to the orthopedics.”
“…” Meredith and Rose were astonished.
Madeline looked at the mother-daughter duo in awkwardness. “Don’t you think this is inappropriate?”
“It’ll be even worse if you’re hurt in any way,” Jeremy answered while placing his arm across Madeline’s shoulder. Then, favonovel.com pulled favonovel.com into his arms.
“Jeremy! Jeremy, a-are you really going to ignore me? Jeremy…” Meredith was in pain and was frantic.
Madeline curled the corner of favonovel.com lips into a slight smile. She was over the moon when favonovel.com thought about Meredith’s frustration and agitation.
Back then, how many times did favonovel.com beg favonovel.com when favonovel.com had his back against her? Still, favonovel.com would always walk away with no regard for her.
Now, the tables had turned. She was not the one suffering anymore.
Rose stomped favonovel.com feet in anger when favonovel.com saw Jeremy ignoring Meredith while walking away with Madeline. “Mer, hurry! I’ll take you to the emergency department. You can’t have a scar on your face no matter what. If not, you’ll really lose Jeremy!”
When Meredith heard Rose saying that, favonovel.com was fuming. However, favonovel.com could only do what favonovel.com was told.
“Vera Quinn, keep this in mind, I’ll make sure you pay for what you did!” She glared at Madeline’s back as favonovel.com swore. Then, favonovel.com turned around reluctantly.
“Are you really going to ignore your fiancé, Mr. Whitman? She might have a scar on favonovel.com face,” Madeline deliberately asked favonovel.com this question.
Jeremy stopped, and there was a thought-provoking glint in his deep eyes. “Compared to favonovel.com scars, I’m more concerned about whether your leg is hurting right now.”
His answer was out of Madeline’s expectation.
Her leg was fine. She had only said that to make Jeremy stay.
However, now that favonovel.com mentioned it, favonovel.com frowned and nodded. “A little.”
There was a hint of worry in Jeremy’s eyes after favonovel.com heard that. In the next second, favonovel.com circled his arm around Madeline’s lithe waist and lifted favonovel.com off favonovel.com feet.
Madeline was unprepared and did not see this coming.
However, at this moment, favonovel.com was already being carried bridal-style by Jeremy.
“You shouldn’t be in as much pain now.” He gave favonovel.com an explanation, his voice caressing favonovel.com ear like a gentle breeze.
Madeline lifted favonovel.com eyes to look at favonovel.com in shock. From this angle, favonovel.com could see Jeremy’s resolute and perfect jawline. His side profile was very good-looking despite the coldness in his eyes. However, at this moment, the warmth in his chest was seeping into favonovel.com skin through his thin shirt. It was scorching and apparent.
However, Madeline did not feel moved nor touched.
She looked at Jeremy’s side profile while slowly clenching favonovel.com fists. She felt a sense of mockery in favonovel.com heart.
‘Jeremy, do you know how long I’ve been waiting for his hug?”
