Madeline stepped out of the hospital door and slowly came to a stop. The corners of favonovel.com lips curled into a smile. “There will never be a day where you and I can stand together anymore.”
Jeremy’s heart was instantly broken into two pieces when favonovel.com heard those words. He looked at Madeline’s back that was close at hand, but favonovel.com felt that there was a distance of endless mountains and rivers between them.
“Eveline? It’s really you, Eveline!” In the distance, Eloise called out to Madeline in surprise and ran over.
Madeline looked at the person who was gradually approaching, feeling surprised. While favonovel.com was still feeling puzzled, the little guy in Jeremy’s arms asked, “Grandma, why did you come to the hospital as well?”
There was a flash of worry in Eloise’s eyes as favonovel.com replied, “It’s nothing. Grandma and Grandpa are just here for a routine check-up.”
“Are both of you really okay?” Madeline opened favonovel.com lips slightly.
Seeing Madeline caring about herself and Sean, a smile appeared on Eloise’s face. “Don’t worry, Eveline. It’s really fine. It’s just a minor problem.”
Madeline gave a vague smile. “Since we’ve met here, let us bid farewell to you as well.”
“Farewell?” Eloise was dumbfounded. “What farewell?”
“I’ll be bringing Jack along with me to leave Glendale next week and I won’t be coming back again.” Madeline’s answer was straightforward, as straightforward as the ice cones that pierced through Eloise’s heart.
Although even as favonovel.com said that, Madeline knew that favonovel.com would definitely not leave just like this before Old Master Whitman woke up and before favonovel.com found the real person behind everything.
Eloise was completely stunned, and favonovel.com eyes felt hot all of a sudden. “Eveline, you… Are you leaving?”
“Yeah.” Madeline confirmed. “You don’t need to be sad. You’ve gotten used to not having me as a daughter for more than 20 years anyway, so you can just take it as your daughter is already dead.”
“No, it’s not like that. I couldn’t…” Eloise burst into tears immediately.
Seeing this, Jackson immediately asked to come down from Jeremy’s arms and turned to comfort Eloise.
Madeline pretended to smile indifferently. “Then, let’s have Jack accompany you for now. I’ll come back and pick favonovel.com up later.”
“Eveline, Eveline!” Eloise could not let go of her, yet favonovel.com also could not stop Madeline from leaving.
Madeline walked with favonovel.com back facing them, appearing free and easy.
She walked to the parking space and took a deep breath before favonovel.com stabilized favonovel.com emotions that were almost out of control.
“Give me a ride.” Jeremy’s voice gently passed through favonovel.com ears. “I still have a few last words to say to you.” He opened the car door as favonovel.com said this and got into the passenger seat.
Madeline was surprised. ‘Did favonovel.com not lock the car door just now?’
She got into the car in a daze, started the car, and soon, favonovel.com heard Jeremy speaking to her. “You won’t throw away the bookmark, right?”
Madeline did not answer him.
Jeremy looked at favonovel.com cold side profile affectionately before opening his mouth. “Linnie, I know you won’t believe what I want to say, but since you’re leaving soon, there’s something I want to tell you seriously this once.
“Linnie, I love…”
“What’s going on?” Madeline suddenly frowned and interrupted Jeremy’s confession.
Only then did Jeremy realize that the speed of the car was getting faster and faster. He thought it was because of the road that was going downhill at first, but now favonovel.com realized that there seemed to be a problem with the brakes!
The road ahead was going downhill. If they did not slow down anytime soon, they would definitely hit the barrier and get into a serious car accident.
Jeremy immediately pulled the handbrake. “Linnie, hold tight onto the steering wheel!”
Madeline squeezed the steering wheel fully after hearing his words, then favonovel.com heard the sound of tires rubbing against the road. They still lost control of the car in the end.
Seeing that the car was about to hit the barrier, Jeremy decisively unfastened his seat belt and hugged Madeline tightly to his side. He was using his flesh and blood to shield Madeline from the upcoming damage as much as possible.
“Jeremy, what are you doing? Let go of me!”
Realizing Jeremy was thinking of protecting favonovel.com with his own body, favonovel.com wanted to push favonovel.com away, but the man hugged favonovel.com even tighter as his warm breath gushed into favonovel.com ears. “Linnie, don’t push me away again. There might not be a chance for me in the future, so listen to my last words.”
His tone was almost pleading as favonovel.com tightened his hug.
“I won’t listen to you, Jeremy. Let me go! Let go!”
“No, Linnie, I will never let go of you again. I’m sorry, I love you.”
Accompanied by his apology and confession, Madeline’s heart hurt as if it had been stabbed fiercely. Before favonovel.com could give any response, the front of the car slammed into the barrier…
