Chapter 913

Seeing that the situation was pressing, Ken hurriedly went to prepare the life raft.

Jeremy was shot twice—one in his back and another in his leg. The dark red blood was flowing continuously out of the man’s wounds.

Jeremy’s face paled visibly. He even began to appear drowsy and tired.

“Jeremy, don’t sleep. Hang in there, I won’t allow anything to happen to you!” Madeline’s voice trembled, her hands that were holding the gauze also trembling severely.

She wanted to treat his wounds, but she could not do anything well.

Looking at her who was full of tears, Jeremy raised his hand strenuously and gently wiped the tears that flowed from her eyes.

His voice was still so nice, but his breathing was extremely weak.

Madeline picked up the blanket on the bed with teary eyes and pressed hard on Jeremy’s wound, but the snow-white blanket was soon dyed red.

She was at a loss and did not know what to do. Hot tears fell on the man’s face drop by drop.

Jeremy’s blood-stained hand tightly gripped Madeline’s. “Don’t cry anymore. Be a good girl and leave with Lillian and Jack.”

Madeline shook her head, her gaze determined. “I’ll never leave!”

“Linnie…”

“Jeremy, you must hang in there. You still haven’t seen the birth of the child in my belly. You still haven’t heard Lillian call you ‘Daddy’. I won’t let anything happen to you!”

Jeremy’s tired eyes looked at Madeline’s slightly protruded stomach. His thin lips moved lightly.

“Lillian…”

Madeline wanted to call Lillian over, but Ken rushed in at this moment. “I’ve prepared the life raft! The yacht has caught on fire. I’m afraid it’ll explode soon. Mr. Whitman, you…”

Jeremy held Madeline’s hand, his pale face full of seriousness. “Go, Linnie. Take the kids and go.”

However, Madeline kept shaking her head. “I won’t go.” She gripped Jeremy’s hand tightly. “Jeremy, I’ll accompany you.”

“I don’t want your company, I want you to go. Linnie, listen.”

“No…”

“Linnie, I’ve let you down too many times in this life. If there’s a next life, I’ll love you and protect you from the beginning till the end…” His dizzying eyes stared at her affectionately. He exhausted his last bit of strength to break free from Madeline’s hand that was unwilling to let him go. “Go!”

He struggled to push her away. “Ken, take the mother and children and go!”

“Jeremy!” Madeline fell onto the deck, still thinking of going to him. However, she was pulled back by Ken.

“Don’t look for Adam anymore. He’s not a good person.” He looked at the woman who was full of tears and said weakly, “Find a man who really loves you for the rest of your life. I won’t simply get jealous anymore.”

He lifted the corner of his lips and gave a gentle smile at the end.

“Eveline, I love you.”

After Jeremy said these last words, his hand fell heavily onto the deck as his charming eyes closed tiredly.

Madeline’s heart seemed to have been stabbed by a thousand knives. The searing pain paralyzed all of her senses.

Other than the bright red that stung her eyes, he seemed to have turned gray in her eyes.

“Jeremy! Jeremy!”

Madeline let out a gut-wrenching cry, but the man did not respond anymore.

He was leaning against the door frame, his snow-white face bloodless.

She broke free from Ken with all her might, ran back to Jeremy, and hugged him so that he would be leaning in her arms.

“Jeremy, you promised me that you’ll give me happiness. But how can I be happy without you?

“Can you wake up?

“Jeremy, don’t sleep, I beg you…”
