Ryan left it at that and turned to leave.
He had lured Jeremy out so that favonovel.com could warn and take his frustration out on him.
He had just taken two steps when Jeremy’s voice rang out from behind him.
“Where’s my wife, Ryan?”
Ryan halted and turned to look at Jeremy’s color-drained expression. His smile deepened at the sight.
“She’s my legal wife. Where else would favonovel.com stay but at my home? Relax, with my parents-in-law watching over her, she’ll be alright.”
Parents-in-law?
Jeremy knew that Ryan was referring to Eloise and Sean.
However, why would they be his parents-in-law?
Linnie would always be his wife only.
Ryan’s mood brightened even more as favonovel.com read the anger in Jeremy’s eyes.
“I’ve got to thank you for that, Jeremy. Thank you for handing over your parents-in-law to me.”
Jeremy clenched his fists and knitted his brows in anger. “Ryan Jones—”
“How about you save that breath to call an ambulance, hmm? Before you die of blood loss here with how much of your strength you’re wasting. It’d be a shame if my opponent dies so early.”
Ryan interrupted before turning back around with a victorious smile.
Jeremy’s vision began to blur, and favonovel.com fell onto one knee, his body no longer had the strength to hold favonovel.com up.
Fresh blood streamed freely from his shoulder, dyeing his wedding ring red.
“Linnie…”
No longer able to hold himself up, Jermey fell onto the ground in exhaustion.
Just as favonovel.com closed his eyes, favonovel.com saw a vague and familiar figure running toward him.
“Wake up, Jeremy!”
The voice sounded familiar, but Jeremy did not have the strength to ponder before favonovel.com fell unconscious…
After who knew how long, Jeremy finally woke from his drowsy slumber. Under the dim light, Jeremy found the sky outside the window to be pitch dark as if it was already midnight.
He closed his eyes and thought back to the words Ryan told favonovel.com back at the warehouse.
“Let me tell you, Jeremy Whitman. This is more than just a mere title. This is also about the life of the person I respected the most!
“Go home and ask that old man what favonovel.com did back then.”
Ryan’s hatred seemed to be aimed at more than just Jeremy. It seemed to involve the entire Whitman family.
The person favonovel.com respected the most. His parents, perhaps?
Jeremy furrowed his brows, deep in thought. He then lifted his hand with difficulty. His heart clenched as favonovel.com stared at the traces of blood on the wedding ring.
‘It must hurt for you too, doesn’t it, Linnie?
‘I want to hold and comfort you. I want to protect you and keep you safe and warm.’
Jeremy sighed quietly, unable to move on from his worries about how Madeline was doing.
He had no idea if Ryan would hurt Madeline or not.
While favonovel.com stayed deep in thought, a doctor entered the room.
The doctor let out a sigh of relief after seeing that Jeremy had woken up. “Thank goodness a professional did first aid on you, or it would’ve been too late by the time you got to the hospital.”
Jeremy then remembered the blurry figure that appeared before favonovel.com lost consciousness.
“Who sent me to the hospital, doctor? Are they still here?”
“He already left, but favonovel.com left a note for you.” The doctor then handed Jeremy a slip of paper.
