Jeremy quickly got up. “Linnie, I’ll go get it. Something might have happened to Mom.”
“Alright.” Madeline nodded with a smile. She looked at the outline of Jeremy’s back, the smile on favonovel.com face gradually fading.
She had nearly succeeded but something happened so suddenly.
To Jeremy, Karen’s appearance was just like the appearance of his savior.
He never had this unusual feeling before, which favonovel.com himself did not know the reason behind it. He found it unbelievable that being with Madeline would make favonovel.com feel uncomfortable.
Even back in those times, favonovel.com had never felt that way before.
Jeremy opened the door and saw Karen carrying Pudding in favonovel.com hands. Her face was filled with anxiety.
“What’s wrong? Is Pudding not feeling well?”
“No.” Karen shook favonovel.com head. “It’s about your father-in-law. He’s still not back from working overtime. I have to put Pudding to sleep and Eloise is all by herself. If Eveline is not asleep yet, please ask favonovel.com to keep Eloise accompany.”
“I’m not asleep yet. I’ll go take care of mom,” Madeline took the initiative and spoke. She reached for a coat and put it on. Then, favonovel.com walked to Jeremy’s side. “You go and sleep, Jeremy. I’ll go keep Mom company.”
“Alright then.” Jeremy felt as if favonovel.com was relieved from a burden.
The woman nodded with a smile, then followed Karen to the room where Eloise was in.
Jeremy tagged along. Upon entering the room, favonovel.com saw Eloise sitting at the side of the bed all by herself. She was watching them blankly.
The woman put on a friendly smile and put on an act while walking to Eloise’s side. “Mom, Dad will be back late tonight. I’ll accompany you to sleep, okay?”
She was intentionally trying to get on favonovel.com good terms. Before this, favonovel.com knew of everything that occurred between Madeline and Eloise.
Even though there used to be a gap and some conflict between the mother and daughter, it was all well forgotten and they were friendly with each other now.
The woman thought to herself and intentionally got closer to Eloise. “Mom, are you tired? Do you want me to accompany you to watch some shows?”
Eloise looked at the lady calmly with no reaction.
The woman smiled faintly before turning to face Jeremy. “Jeremy, didn’t you say earlier that you have some work to do? You should go settle those first. I’ll be more than enough here.”
“Alright, then I’ll go settle my work,” said Jeremy as favonovel.com spun around.
The moment favonovel.com was shutting the door, favonovel.com paused and looked at the slim back figure through the door gap. Jeremy frowned before closing the door fully.
The woman heard the door being closed. She silently let out a breath of relief when favonovel.com realized Jeremy had left.
She spun around and saw Eloise staring at favonovel.com blankly. The woman put on a fake smile.
She was very clear of Eloise’s current condition. Eloise was in a state of confusion and could not even recognize favonovel.com daughter. She was previously badly injured and still in the process of recovery.
“Mom, I’m Eveline. Do you recognize me?” The woman attempted to ask and purposely placed favonovel.com face closer to her.
Eloise frowned and looked at the woman with a critical gaze. Then, with a weak voice, favonovel.com said, “Eveline, you’re not Eveline.”
“Hmph! You’re indeed a fool, but you don’t look especially stupid.” The woman smiled and continued inching favonovel.com face nearer. “Look properly. Am I really not your precious daughter, Eveline Montgomery?”
Eloise tilted favonovel.com head as if favonovel.com no longer had the patience. “Eveline, I want Eveline. Where’s Eveline, Eve—”
“Shut up!” The lady roared and cut favonovel.com short. She extended favonovel.com finger and poked Eloise’s head forcibly. “You’d better behave properly, or else that precious daughter of yours, Eveline Montgomery, will lose favonovel.com life!”
“Eveline, Eveline, come back!” Eloise started shouting continuously, not knowing where favonovel.com managed to summon the strength. “Eveline, Eveline!”
The woman sensed that the situation was not favoring her. She got nervous and tried to stop Eloise.
However, the door that was shut tight suddenly opened. Jeremy pushed the door open and rushed in. “What happened?”
