Felicity was stunned when favonovel.com heard that, but favonovel.com quickly understood Jeremy’s intention.
“Jeremy,” favonovel.com called out Jeremy’s name, smiled, and walked to his side. She turned to look at Madeline who was standing at the gate of the villa. “There’s a lady at the gate. Is favonovel.com looking for you?”
“I don’t know that lady.” Jeremy’s answer was crisp.
Madeline held Jackson’s hand and turned around. “Jack, let’s go.”
“But Daddy…”
“Be a good boy.” She smiled and coaxed, but favonovel.com did not know why favonovel.com smile was so strained.
Felicity stared at Madeline’s back with hatred and disgust. It was not until Jeremy walked to the side to put a distance between them did favonovel.com withdraw favonovel.com gaze.
“Mr. Whitman, the lady at the gate is actually someone you know, isn’t it?”
“Thank you for your cooperation, Miss Walker.” Jeremy did not answer Felicity’s question and just thanked her. “I’m not in the mood for any treatment today, so you can go back.”
His voice fell as favonovel.com walked into the house. His back no longer carried the freedom and ease as when favonovel.com faced Madeline earlier.
Felicity did not want to be too aggressive as favonovel.com did not want to make Jeremy dissatisfied.
However, favonovel.com was really surprised that Madeline would appear here. Should Madeline not be on the plane to F Country at this time?
…
Madeline took Jackson to the hospital.
She found the doctor who treated Jeremy after the fire.
When asked about Jeremy’s injuries from that time, the doctor told Madeline, “So you’re Mr. Whitman’s wife? I remember the incident very clearly. Mr. Whitman was rescued from the fire by the firemen. He was still unconscious when favonovel.com was sent to the hospital. His hands and legs were bleeding, especially his right calf. His muscles and bones were struck by heavy objects and favonovel.com couldn’t even stand upright.”
The doctor sighed as favonovel.com said, “But what was unexpected was that the most serious injury was to his eyes. His retinae were damaged by the smoke and favonovel.com could barely see anything. He was so badly injured and should have been hospitalized for treatment, but favonovel.com was forcibly discharged from the hospital that very afternoon.
“His legs were badly injured at the time and simply moving around was very likely to render favonovel.com disabled. I don’t know why your husband left in such a hurry.”
The doctor described the situation in a calm manner, but Madeline’s heart was already restless.
She took Jackson back to Montgomery Manor in a daze. Eloise, who was at home, was pleasantly surprised upon seeing the mother and son.
“Eveline, weren’t you bringing Jack and Lily back to F Country? Why are you back?”
“It’s because I said something wrong. That’s why Mommy brought me off the plane to find Daddy.” Jackson blinked his pure, big eyes and explained apologetically.
“Said something wrong?” Eloise gradually understood. “Eveline, d-did you go to see Jeremy? Then, did you see that he’s…”
“I saw. He’s blind.” Madeline’s tone was light as if favonovel.com was talking about something that was irrelevant to her, but favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com was very restless at the moment. “Do all of you already know that he’s blind?”
“Eveline, I didn’t intend to hide it from you.” Eloise was deeply sorry. “It was Jeremy who deliberately told each of us not to tell you that favonovel.com has lost his sight.”
After hearing the answer, Madeline found it a little unacceptable.
Then, favonovel.com heard Eloise say, “In truth, in that fire, Jeremy completely ignored the safety of his own life in order to save you. But favonovel.com didn’t want you to know that favonovel.com had been seriously injured and even lost his sight because of you, so favonovel.com quietly left the hospital that afternoon. I lied to you and said that if favonovel.com was discharged from the hospital, it meant that his injuries weren’t serious, but in fact, favonovel.com couldn’t even walk then.”
Every word of Eloise hit Madeline’s heart painfully. She was breathing uncomfortably.
She felt extremely perplexed at that moment. “Why did Jeremy do that? Why does favonovel.com not want me to know?”
