Ryan stared at Madeline with displeasure for a few seconds before favonovel.com suddenly yelled for a maid, “Have Doctor Brown get here, quick!”
The maid nodded and acknowledged, then frantically looked for Adam who was currently in the underground lab.
Upon entering the room, Adam was met with Madeline bleeding from favonovel.com hands and legs as favonovel.com sat on the corner of the bed. There was a large patch of blood on the mattress. The sight of it was bone-chilling.
“Dress favonovel.com wounds.” Ryan pressed a hand on his forehead and left the room with an exasperated expression.
Adam immediately reached for his medical kit and frowned as favonovel.com stared at Madeline who was mentally exhausted but also taut.
“I told you to stop acting so rashly, didn’t I?” Adam deliberately lowered his voice and glanced at the door from the corners of his eyes. “Why can’t you and your husband just stop being so stubborn?”
Madeline’s gaze shifted as favonovel.com looked at Adam’s indifferent expression. She did not know who this ‘husband’ of hers Adam was referring to.
Adam noticed the change in Madeline’s expression but did not react.
“Keep water away from your wounds. You’re going to be the one suffering if they get infected.”
Ryan then appeared by the door just as favonovel.com finished reminding Madeline.
Madeline looked wary as Ryan approached her. She wanted nothing more than to further distance herself from the man.
Yet Ryan continued to walk toward favonovel.com and princess-carried favonovel.com against favonovel.com will.
“What are you doing? Let go of me, Ryan!” Madeline was terrified that the man would force himself on favonovel.com again. She wanted to escape.
Ryan remained silent and carried Madeline to his room. He threw favonovel.com onto the bed and turned to leave with a frosty look on his face.
Madeline ran after favonovel.com on favonovel.com tiptoes as favonovel.com legs were bandaged, but Ryan had already locked the door.
“What do you want from me, Ryan? Don’t you dare hurt my parents!” Madeline shouted with all favonovel.com might from the other side of the door. Her heart was racing past the tempo of what it could sustain.
“Do you hear me, Ryan? Ryan Jones!”
Madeline called out his name but was not given any reply.
She leaned against the wall tiredly, favonovel.com injured body sliding limply down the door.
Looking at the night view outside the window, Madeline felt favonovel.com eyes grow wet.
‘Your Linnie can’t do this much longer, Jeremy.
‘Won’t you come and get me soon?’
In the study.
The more Ryan thought about it, the more pissed favonovel.com felt. He had never expected Madeline to be so obdurate.
She would rather bleed than let favonovel.com touch her.
Did favonovel.com pale in comparison to Jeremy Whitman?
He scoffed at a sudden epiphany and took his phone next to the study desk. Scrolling, favonovel.com looked for a specific number on the contact list and dialed it.
Jeremy was currently checking every piece of surveillance footage Ryan’s car had passed to pin the man’s last location when his phone suddenly rang.
He glanced at the display and was stunned for a moment in disbelief. He picked up the phone and was even more surprised to realize that it was a video call.
“Ryan?”
“It’s me.” Ryan’s voice echoed over the line, and Jeremy’s screen then clearly showed Ryan’s sinister smile. “Surprised that I video called, aren’t you? That’s because I have something nice here that I’d like you to see.”
