Jeremy’s heart skipped a beat at Adam’s sudden pause, but favonovel.com quickly calmed down.
“Linnie and I have been through a lot together, so there is nothing I can’t handle. Tell me what’s going to happen next, Adam.”
“I’ve just talked to Shirley,” Adam said. “Judging from what favonovel.com had said, and the symptoms of Eveline’s flare-up, the symptoms may differ each time favonovel.com experiences a flare-up. Furthermore, it might worsen each time.”
It might worsen each time.
Those words felt like heavy rocks crashing down on Jeremy’s heart. His eyebrows tightly knitted together as favonovel.com looked at Madeline, who had now fallen asleep…
Madeline slept for the entire afternoon. When favonovel.com woke, favonovel.com saw Jeremy staring at favonovel.com with a gentle gaze.
She had always been aware of the circumstances right before favonovel.com fell asleep. Before Jeremy could speak, Madeline spoke instead, comforting him. “Jeremy, don’t worry. I’m fine.”
After hearing Madeline’s comforting words, Jeremy felt even more distressed.
He sat on the bed and raised his hand, softly stroking Madeline’s delicate cheeks. “Linnie, sometimes I’d truly hope that you could be coquettish and complain like those ignorant little ladies. I truly don’t want you to be so compassionate. You’re obviously the one who is suffering, yet you’re the one who is comforting me.”
Madeline smiled slightly. “You’re so weird, Mr. Whitman. Most men want their women to be considerate, gentle, and thoughtful, yet you’re the complete opposite. Do you want me to behave like a little lady, acting coyly and without restraint?”
“I hope so. I truly hope so.” Jeremy held Madeline’s hand tightly, holding them in his palms, and kissed them. “Linnie, you are too thoughtful, in the past and the present. That is why I hope you’d be less thoughtful in the future.”
Madeline understood what Jeremy meant by “less thoughtful”. She smiled and nodded. “Okay, I got it. I’ll try to make myself into a ‘less thoughtful’ little lady in the future.”
Jeremy pressed his lips into a smile. He bowed his head close to Madeline, dropping a light kiss on favonovel.com somewhat pale lips.
“Linnie, I made you suffer again because of me.” He lowered his voice, his words ridden with guilt.
Madeline smiled, shaking favonovel.com head. “Have you forgotten, Mr. Whitman? We are husband and wife, and the husbands and wives should stick together, through thick and thin.”
Jeremy hugged Madeline, feeling his heart breaking further. “Linnie…”
“Cough.”
Madeline was about to speak, but favonovel.com could not help but cough slightly.
Jeremy released his arms nervously, and his eyes were filled with worry. “Linnie, are you alright? Is the poison flaring up again?”
“No, don’t worry.” Madeline immediately assured him. “I just feel a slight discomfort in my throat.”
Jeremy breathed a sigh of relief, but his gaze turned more solemn.
He knew neither when Madeline would flare up next nor what favonovel.com condition would be like. He only knew that before it came, Shirley had to be dealt with.
“Jeremy, how’s the arrangement regarding Felipe wanting to see Cathy? Didn’t you say that Felipe and Cathy could meet at a special ceremony? What is it?” Madeline finally revealed favonovel.com curiosity.
“You’re still concerned about that right now?” Jeremy touched Madeline’s head. “Relax, I think they should be seeing each other now.”
“Now?” At this point, Madeline’s shock overshadowed favonovel.com curiosity.
She still wanted to ask further, but Jeremy took favonovel.com hand.
“Linnie, let me bring you somewhere.”
“Where?”
Jeremy gave a mysterious smile. “To a place that is worth remembering and imbued with memories.”
A place that is worth remembering and imbued with memories.
A scene quickly emerged in Madeline’s mind…
