Chapter 1096
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
AB.Madeline felt her vision turning dark.
This whole time, she had been suspecting whether the blood belonged to Jeremy, but when she found out the blood type was A, she felt relieved.
However, she did not expect that after the mutation of the genes, even the blood type would change.
Jeremyâs blood type was AB.
Madeline felt uneasy. She felt as if someone was stabbing her heart repeatedly.
âMiss Montgomery, where did you get this blood sample from? According to our research, if this person doesnât get treatment immediately, heâll die when the poison in his body reaches stage five.â
The word âdieâ felt like a knife penetrating Madelineâs heart.
She did not have any injuries, but the excruciating pain was spreading throughout her body.
Even though everything was just a hunch, the pain in her heart told her that her hunch was right.
After she left the lab, Madeline started spacing out. She called Ryan to ask him where he was.
After he received her call, he could feel that something was wrong because Madelineâs voice sounded strange.
Ten minutes later, Madeline found him and was immediately frank with him. âRye, youâre hiding something from me, right?â
Ryan did not say anything but knew what Madeline wanted to ask him.
Madeline walked to him and looked into his eyes. âThe reason Jeremy was deliberately cold to me and the children is not just because heâs a spy, right?
âIs he sick? Heâs so sick that itâs at the final stages and thereâs no cure, right?â
Madeline grabbed Ryanâs arm while looking at his grim expression.
âRyan, tell me, is Jeremy going to die?â
When he heard this, Ryan knew he could not help Jeremy keep his secret anymore.
He looked at Madelineâs red eyes and nodded lightly. âYouâre right. He has an incurable disease, and his time is almost up.â
Madeline felt her breathing hitch at this moment. Everything was spinning, and she could not feel her heartbeat anymore.
She fumbled for her phone in her bag and pressed down on the numbers that she had long ago memorized.
It was Jeremyâs number.
The call went through, but no one answered.
Madeline looked at the screen of her phone as tears streamed down her cheeks.
She called multiple times, but in the end, she got the message that he had switched off his phone.
Madelineâs heart shattered into pieces.
His determination to not pick up the phone was to make sure she despised him.
âBut Jeremy, do you know despite my hatred and resentment toward you, Iâll love you even more?â
âUse mine. This is his number when he worked with Interpol.â Ryan handed his phone over.
Madeline quickly grabbed it. Jeremy answered the phone after a few seconds.
Jeremyâs voice sounded deep, but at the same time, he also sounded anxious. âWhy is she calling me?
Did something happen to her? Ryan, you promised that youâll take good care of her for me!â
Madeline sobbed when she heard what he said. She controlled her emotions and said, âItâs me.â
On the other end of the phone, Jeremy was silent.
âWhere are you? Jeremy, tell me where you are right now,â Madeline asked.
âEveline, I told you I donât want to see you or hear your voice. Stop pesteringââ
âJeremy, game over. I know everything,â Madeline interrupted him gently and sobbed. âJeremy, tell me where you are. I miss you. I miss you so muchâ¦â
After Madeline said that, there was a long silence on the other end of the phone.
After a long while, Jeremy said in a deep voice, âEveline, the sea of April Hill is so beautiful. I want to look at this view with you once more, but I guess I can only do it in my next life. Remember what you said. Stop crying for me. I hope you remember that Jeremy Whitman loves Eveline Montgomery, always.â
