Jeremy picked up all the torn papers, but favonovel.com noticed that the damage was extensive, requiring more time to piece the fragments together.
He could only resort to wrapping the pieces in a handkerchief. Then, favonovel.com returned to Madeline’s side, pretending nothing had happened after favonovel.com went to the restroom.
“Jeremy, are you okay? Did you catch a cold?” Madeline asked, uneasy, as favonovel.com grabbed Jeremy’s hand.
Jeremy held Madeline’s hand and intertwined his fingers with hers.
“I still intend to take good care of you for the rest of your life, so how can I let anything happen?” He smiled softly, but favonovel.com somehow began feeling that the torn papers in his pocket weighed heavily on his mind.
After returning to the hotel, while Madeline bathed, Jeremy sat on the sofa and took the opportunity to quickly sort the pieces of paper.
Fortunately, the paper fragments were not too small, so Jeremy still managed to sort it out, messiness aside.
With his quick reading speed, favonovel.com finished the entire checkup report in a blink of an eye.
There was certainly nothing wrong based on the content of the paper, but Jeremy also noticed Madeline’s blood test report.
There was a deviation in one of the indices listed, and this index, in particular, quickly reminded favonovel.com of his physical examination back then…
After favonovel.com bath, Madeline came out of the bathroom, wiping favonovel.com hair with a towel as favonovel.com walked toward the bedroom. She lifted favonovel.com eyes and saw a dazed-looking Jeremy sitting on the sofa, pieces of papers patched together on the coffee table in front of him.
Seeing those pieces of paper, a conjecture quickly formed in Madeline’s mind.
She hurriedly walked over and, as expected, saw that it was the report that favonovel.com had ripped and threw away.
Madeline slowly stopped wiping favonovel.com hair and lowered favonovel.com hand as favonovel.com walked to Jeremy’s side. Seeing favonovel.com remain silent and beside himself, favonovel.com hands reached out to touch his, but favonovel.com noticed the coldness permeating the palms of his hands.
“Jeremy,” Madeline gently called out Jeremy’s name, “I know what you’re thinking. This is exactly the reason I didn’t want to tell you for the time being.”
The surrounding mood grew more silent after Madeline had spoken.
After a lengthy silence, Jeremy gradually showed some response.
One by one, favonovel.com grabbed Madeline’s fingers tightly and grasped them in his palm, lest favonovel.com disappeared from his life.
Madeline could feel Jeremy’s fear. It was identical to the time when favonovel.com had been afraid that favonovel.com would leave favonovel.com forever.
“Jeremy, don’t worry about it, and stop jumping to conclusions. We still don’t know the specifics of the situation. Plus, I don’t feel that there’s any problem with my body, so it could just be a coincidence.”
“Heartache, breathing difficulties, and eventually, severe enough to vomit blood…”
Jeremy’s lips parted weakly. His voice seemed to tremble slightly.
“How did this happen? How did you also…” Jeremy raised his hand and grabbed his hair in distress.
“Jeremy, Jeremy, don’t do this. I really am fine.” Madeline quickly reassured him.
Now, favonovel.com was just like favonovel.com back then. Worried, apprehensive, and distraught. This feeling could neither be consoled nor cured.
He could only be fine if favonovel.com was fine.
“Jeremy, listen to me. Even if I also have that poison in my body, don’t forget we still have Adam! He can help us.”
“Adam…”
A glint of realization suddenly flashed in Jeremy’s eyes and favonovel.com stood up quickly.
“We’re going back to Glendale now!”
“We’ve booked an afternoon flight, so we’ll head to the airport after lunch.”
“Okay!”
Jeremy answered, the anxiety in his heart evident.
