Chapter 1321

Jeremy sounded like he was pleading with her as he hugged her even harder for fear that she would slip away again, but Madeline seemed to be triggered by him as she struggled with her last remaining strength.

“Let me go, I have to wait for Jeremy! He’s coming to pick me up soon!”

Jeremy was heartbroken. His eyes were red as he sobbed. Then, he held up Madeline’s panicking face. “Linnie, I am Jeremy! I’m here to pick you up.”

Madeline paused and then raised her unique, beautiful eyes to meet Jeremy’s affectionate and gentle ones.

She looked at Jeremy seriously again for some time as if she was exploring something.

Seeing that Madeline was not so emotional anymore, Jeremy stroked her cheek lightly. “Linnie, take a closer look. I’m the love of your life, Jeremy.”

“Jeremy…”

“Yeah, Linnie, it’s me,” Jeremy answered without thinking.

Just when he thought that Madeline was gradually getting an impression of him, in the next second, a look of resistance appeared on her small face.

“You’re lying to me again. Jeremy hasn’t come yet. He asked me to wait for him, but he’s not here yet, so I have to continue to wait for him.” After Madeline finished speaking, she pushed Jeremy away and continued to walk to the door.

Jeremy hurriedly went to grab Madeline’s hand, but the moment he touched her finger, Madeline’s anger seemed to ignite. “Stop bothering me already!” she looked back and scolded.

Then, with an annoyed expression, she pushed away Jeremy’s hand that was approaching her. At that moment, her beautiful eyes were filled with extreme displeasure and anger.

She stared at Jeremy who was now dumbfounded and then warned him seriously, “Stop following me!

You’re so annoying!”

Annoying.

The word penetrated Jeremy’s already injured heart with great lethality.

Despite knowing that Madeline was not intentionally behaving this way, how could Jeremy not feel distressed?

He really hated Ryan so much. He actually forced such a tough and tenacious woman into this state.

After seeing that Madeline had already reached the door and was planning to open it to leave, Jeremy was left with no choice.

However, he did not force her to stay like how Ryan forced her to. Instead, he followed her quietly and did not separate from her.

Although Madeline’s mental state was not good, she still had basic common sense.

She went to take the elevator, so Jeremy followed her inside. He also helped Madeline press the button to the first floor.

Madeline looked at Jeremy suspiciously, then moved her gaze away arrogantly. Then, she warned, “I told you to stop following me already. If Jeremy finds out about this, he’ll definitely teach you a lesson.”

Jeremy did not expect that Madeline would take the initiative to speak to him and that she would say something like that.

He looked at her beautiful side profile with affection and deliberately went along with her. “Really? Then I really want to meet your Jeremy.”

Madeline looked at Jeremy as if she was looking at a strange person.

She ignored Jeremy. As soon as the elevator reached the first floor, she walked out on her own.

Jeremy followed Madeline silently while keeping a safe distance. However, if Madeline was in any danger, he would rush over to protect her as soon as possible.

However, Madeline was unfamiliar with the surroundings. She looked around, and perhaps she started to panic a little from being lost.

Jeremy saw everything, and the corners of his eyes became wet more than once.

The clothes on her body were thin and she had not eaten for almost two days. The thing that was supporting her right now was the nutritional injections given to her by Adam.

He was really worried that she would suddenly collapse from exhaustion.

However, just when Jeremy started to have this concern, a man was riding toward Madeline on an electric bike from the opposite direction.

“Get out of the way!” the man yelled, ordering Madeline to give way.

Jeremy’s eyes darkened suddenly. How could he tolerate this man talking to Madeline like this?
