Jeremy suddenly heard a dull crash, like a heavy object falling to the ground
He thought Madeline was smashing things while sulking and became more worried.
“Linnie.” He knocked on the door and called out, “Linnie, are you alright?”
Jeremy asked but did not receive any response from Madeline.
His sudden and restless heartbeat made Jeremy unable to wait any longer. He tried to open the door, but it was locked from the inside.
“Linnie, what are you doing inside? Linnie!”
Jeremy’s voice held a little more panic and confusion.
He threw away the pillow and lifted his long legs to kick the lock of the door.
As soon as the door was kicked open, Jeremy saw Madeline lying on the bedside and the pills that were scattered all over the floor. His eyes were suddenly filled with horror.
“Linnie!” He hurriedly ran to Madeline’s side and hugged her.
Seeing Madeline’s face that was as pale as snow, Jeremy was in a mess. “Linnie, wake up! Eveline! Eveline Montogomery!”
No matter how Jeremy called out to her, Madeline did not respond.
Jeremy immediately picked Madeline up and rushed to the nearest hospital as quickly as possible.
The doctor inspected Madeline and said there was nothing wrong with her, but Madeline had not regained consciousness.
Jeremy stayed by the hospital bed, holding Madeline’s icy cold hand and kissing it gently. His worried gaze was full of affection and apology as favonovel.com stared at Madeline who was still unconscious.
Suddenly, a woman’s figure intruded his peripheral vision.
Lana leaned against the door frame, favonovel.com face full of smiles. “Mr. Whitman, do you know which part of you I’m attracted to the most? It’s when you care about your wife like what you’re doing right now.”
Jeremy placed Madeline’s hand under the blanket. He quickly got up and walked toward Lana.
“Get out.” Jeremy’s gaze was cold.
He pushed Lana out, then closed the door of the ward gently.
Lana was still smiling, obsessively admiring Jeremy’s face. His handsome appearance was not affected by his anger at all.
“Do you know, Mr. Whitman? I grew up a princess who was pampered by my brother. I get whatever I want.
“I’ve had many boyfriends, but none of them were sincere. I really want to know what it’s like to be treated sincerely by an almost perfect man like you.
“No man will have sincere feelings for a woman like you who’s so unscrupulous to achieve a goal.” Jeremy poured cold water over favonovel.com with his words, his bottomless eyes full of appalling hostility. “Lana, if anything happens to my wife, I’ll break up the Stygian Johnson Gang completely. Eveline Montgomery is my bottom line. You can touch anyone but her.”
“Now that you’ve said that, I’m more reluctant to let go of a good, affectionate man like you.” Lana smiled leisurely. “Do you know why your wife showed up in the hotel’s parking lot just now? It’s because I sent favonovel.com a message, telling favonovel.com that you and I had booked a room at the hotel. That’s why favonovel.com came.”
Jeremy thought of Madeline’s expression and reaction at the time. He had wanted to hold favonovel.com hand, but favonovel.com avoided favonovel.com in disgust.
Could it be that favonovel.com believed Lana’s words and thought that favonovel.com had really booked a room in the hotel with this woman?
Seeing Jeremy frowning and deep in thought, Lana approached favonovel.com with a sorry look. “Don’t be so upset. Of course favonovel.com wanted to believe you, but it can’t be helped when favonovel.com really did see us hugging and kissing.”
Jeremy’s eyes narrowed tightly. “What nonsense are you saying?!”
