Chapter 1351
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
It was also at this moment Madeline felt something warm splashing her face.
Then, the dazzling bright red liquid started gurgling from where Ryanâs heart was.
The horrifying sight of blood was reflected in Madelineâs eyes.
She opened her beautiful eyes in dumbfoundedness and could not believe what just happened.
Ryan did not expect that someone would have secretly aimed the gun at him. The bullet passed through his heart, and in an instant, he knew that his life had come to an end.
Yet, it seemed that there was still something he could not let go of. This obsession was still in sight.
Ryan clasped Madelineâs wrist tightly and subconsciously tightened his hold. Then, his eyes gradually lost their luster and focus.
Before he collapsed, Ryan inaudibly uttered some words to Madeline.
Madelineâs eyes widened as she watched Ryan slowly collapsing in front of her eyes. The only thing in her mind right now was the bloody scene she just witnessed and what Ryan said before collapsing.
âLinnie!â
When Madeline was in a daze, she heard a man screaming in her ears.
In the next second, she felt a familiar scent approaching her, and then a pair of strong arms was holding her tightly.
However, Madeline could only see the crimson in front of her right now and felt dizzy.
Before she had time to see the man who was hugging her, her eyes went dark and she fainted.
âLinnie, Linnie!â Jeremy nervously picked the unconscious Madeline up. He also caught the sight of Ryan who had fallen to the ground and could no longer resist.
Jeremy did not expect the police to shoot him, but he could guess that Madeline fainted from shock after witnessing Ryan suddenly collapsing in front of her.
The policemen quickly rushed over, and Jeremy frowned slightly as he looked at Ryan who had his eyes half-opened in a pool of blood.
âCall an ambulance and take him to the hospital right away. Maybe he can still be saved.â After he finished speaking, he immediately left with Madeline in his arms.
Whitman Manor.
Sean was unable to sit still as he waited for news about Madeline. When he suddenly heard a voice coming from outside, he hurriedly strode out.
He spotted Jeremy walking inside with Madeline, so he ran forward nervously. âEveline, Eveline.â
He called out to her twice. After seeing that Madeline was not responding, he asked Jeremy anxiously, âWhatâs wrong with Eveline? Why is there blood on her body?â
Jeremy lowered his eyes and looked at the woman in his arms. His eyes were filled with distress.
âDonât worry too much. Linnie just fainted. The blood belongs to Ryan.â
âRyan?â Sean was shocked. âWhy is Ryanâs blood on Evelineâs body? What happened?â
As soon as Jeremy finished talking, Eloise hurried over.
Seeing Madeline lying unconscious in Jeremyâs arms with a lot of bloodstains on her face and dress, Eloise suddenly panicked and nervously grabbed Seanâs hand to question him.
âWhatâs wrong with her? Sean, whatâs wrong with Eveline?â
Sean hurriedly held Eloiseâs shoulders and gently soothed her. âItâs okay. Eveline is okay. Sheâs just asleep, donât worry.â
Eloise glanced at Jeremy suspiciously. âIs that true?â
Jeremy spoke cooperatively, âItâs true. Iâll take Eveline back to her room for her to get some rest. Iâll ask her to look for you after she wakes up.â
Eloise nodded. âThen hurry up and take Eveline to bed. Let her have a good rest.â
Although she could not recognize the woman Jeremy was holding in his arms to be her baby girl whom she talked about every day, her consideration and concern for Madeline was still evident.
After Jeremy carried Madeline to bed, he called his colleagues to ask about Ryanâs situation.
