“Linnie?”
Jeremy was stunned and elated.
He reached for Madeline instinctively, but favonovel.com had only taken a step when favonovel.com realized how much the injury on his calf hurt.
Madeline’s heart lurched the same time Jeremy frowned at the pain.
“Jeremy!”
She ran toward favonovel.com and wrapped favonovel.com arms around his waist, hugging the man before favonovel.com lost his balance and fell.
“Am I dreaming, Linnie?” Jeremy lifted Madeline’s head by favonovel.com chin, his deep eyes reflecting favonovel.com enchanting appearance.
Madeline shook favonovel.com head. “You’re not dreaming, Jeremy. It’s me.”
Jeremy’s knitted brows relaxed. He forgot about Eloise’s presence as his eyes were solely fixed on Madeline.
Staring at favonovel.com lovingly, favonovel.com leaned down to capture favonovel.com lips with a deep kiss.
Stunned, Madeline closed favonovel.com eyes reflexively and returned his gentle kiss…
Embarrassed, Eloise turned around and walked to the door at the sight.
She looked back again to see Madeline and Jeremy still holding each other intimately before favonovel.com looked around their surroundings.
“Where’s Sean? Sean should still be downstairs. I’m going to look for Sean,” Eloise muttered to herself before favonovel.com took the elevator down.
It may have been a cloudy day, but the sun seemed to be shining bright in Jeremy’s heart.
He sat by the bed and held Madeline in his arms.
Despite not having the warm rays of sunshine on his body, his heart swirled with warmth and sweetness.
Madeline was not wearing much and favonovel.com could see that the wound on favonovel.com shoulder had not fully recovered. His heart clenched at the sight as favonovel.com placed a loving peck between favonovel.com brows.
“Do you hate me for handing you to Ryan, Linnie?”
“I know you did that for me. Why would I hate you for it?” Madeline looked up to meet his gaze. “You, however, how did you get hurt? To the point that you can’t even walk properly anymore. Did Ryan do this to you?”
Jeremy gave a light nod as a solemn look graced his eyes. “Ryan is a terrifying figure. I need to come up with a fool-proof plan and end this for good.”
His eyes then warmed up. “I want to bring you home as soon as possible, Linnie. I want our family to reunite and be together again.”
“We will, Jeremy. We’ll all be together again.” Madeline took his hand, favonovel.com slender fingers intertwining with his long boney ones as adoration tinted favonovel.com eyes.
“These past few days have been difficult without you around, Jeremy. But the thought that I’ll be able to see you after all of this gives me the strength to go on. Don’t worry about me, okay? I’ll take good care of myself.”
Jeremy’s heart lurched as remorse filled favonovel.com at Madeline’s words.
She was his wife, yet favonovel.com could not protect favonovel.com as favonovel.com should.
“I owe you too much, Linnie.”
“You don’t. You owe me nothing. I can feel how much you care and worry about me.” Madeline comforted him. Then, it dawned on favonovel.com as favonovel.com turned to look at the door. “Where’s Mom? When did favonovel.com leave?”
Jeremy could vaguely remember Eloise’s appearance, but favonovel.com had not paid too much attention to favonovel.com as his heart and mind were only filled with Madeline.
Jeremy also thought of something that favonovel.com should tell Madeline. “Linnie, about the day Montgomery Manor caught fire, Mom and Dad, they—”
“I have to find Mom, Jeremy.” Madeline got up and walked toward the door worriedly. “You might not know this, but Mom is no different than a child right now. She doesn’t know anything with favonovel.com current mental state.”
Jeremy looked at Madeline in disbelief. “How? What happened to Mom?”
“I’ll explain later. Don’t go anywhere. I’ll come back once I find Mom.” Madeline opened the door and was about to step out when favonovel.com came to a sudden halt.
She stared at the handsome man who had appeared in front of her, favonovel.com expression changing. Every step favonovel.com had taken outside was now frantically backtracked, one step after the next…
