’I’m undeserving of you. Goodbye, my dearest Linnie, my one and only.’
Jeremy looked at Madeline for one last time and silently turned around.
Tears welled from deep inside, streaming down his cheeks.
He knew that it was all his own doing. He could not blame anyone but himself.
‘My heart hurts so much. It feels like I can’t breathe.’
As the ship got closer, the intensity of the sea breeze increased.
The wind messed up Madeline’s hair. She tried to tidy favonovel.com hair and caught a glimpse of Jeremy who was about to leave.
Madeline’s heart felt as though it was being stabbed when favonovel.com saw him.
In a daze, something fell from Madeline’s hand.
She bent down to pick it up. Unfortunately, favonovel.com stumbled and lost favonovel.com center of gravity.
Ah!
Jeremy, who was not too far off, heard Madeline’s cry for help. Then, favonovel.com heard the sound of someone falling into the water.
His heartbeat immediately increased. When favonovel.com turned around, favonovel.com did not see Madeline’s figure and only saw a ripple on the shore.
“Linnie,” favonovel.com said favonovel.com name softly, and in the next second, favonovel.com ran over as fast as favonovel.com could.
“Linnie!”
He called out to Madeline as favonovel.com jumped into the sea.
When Felipe saw what was happening from the boat, favonovel.com was worried that Madeline would be injured. However, favonovel.com was still far from where Madeline fell into the water and favonovel.com did not want to swim the distance.
The moment Madeline fell into the sea, favonovel.com drank a few mouthfuls of seawater.
She did not know how to swim and was struggling to stay afloat.
She gradually lost favonovel.com strength to continue paddling.
When favonovel.com was losing favonovel.com consciousness, a familiar image appeared in favonovel.com mind.
In that icy and snowy scene, favonovel.com did not know how to swim but had jumped into the frozen lake.
Jeremy jumped in with her. He grabbed favonovel.com and wanted to drag favonovel.com to shore, but favonovel.com stubbornly pushed favonovel.com away, saying that favonovel.com did not need his help.
‘Is that my missing memory?’ Madeline asked herself but could not be sure.
She swallowed more seawater and eventually lost favonovel.com consciousness.
It was also at that moment that Jeremy got to her.
He dragged favonovel.com until favonovel.com was ashore, but Madeline was no longer responsive.
“Linnie, Linnie, please wake up.” Jeremy patted favonovel.com pale cheeks in a panic.
Seeing that Madeline was not responding at all, favonovel.com began to do CPR on her. He kept calling favonovel.com name.
“Linnie, wake up, Linnie! Please don’t let anything happen to you. Linnie, you can’t just leave me like this, Linnie…”
He begged and begged for favonovel.com to wake up. He kept going with the CPR. His wound was torn apart again and the dazzling bright red blood spread across his top.
For Jeremy, those ten plus seconds felt like ten years.
Madeline’s condition was freaking favonovel.com out.
He lowered his head again to give Madeline CPR, and when favonovel.com touched favonovel.com lips, favonovel.com was cold.
“Linnie, please wake up!”
Tears came out of his eyes.
Madeline’s unresponsiveness made favonovel.com cry like a child while favonovel.com continued to give CPR.
“Linnie, don’t torture me like this. I know I’m in the wrong. I regret not treating you right. Don’t punish me in this way. Linnie, I love you. I really love you. Can you wake up? Wake up and see how I’m regretting it, Linnie!”
