Chapter 1391

Madeline strode toward the stairs that suddenly collapsed.

Sean was on the phone when he heard Madeline’s heart-wrenching screams. His expression changed drastically before rushing in.

Madeline panicked and ran to the place where Jeremy had fallen. When she saw the man lying motionless on the ground, she felt as if something had pierced through her heart.

“Jeremy!”

With a pale face, Madeline ran to Jeremy’s side and knelt before him. She took his face and cradled it in her arms.

“Jeremy, wake up, Jeremy! Don’t scare me!” Madeline’s eyes looked lost while her hands trembled violently.

She brushed away the dust on Jeremy’s face. With trembling fingers, she stroked his beautiful eyebrows. Then, tears quietly escaped from her eyes.

“Jeremy, don’t scare me. Please don’t scare me. I really don’t have the ability to bear the possibility of losing you.

“Jeremy, I’m truly exhausted from this journey. For the rest of my life, I just want you to cherish me and take care of me. Don’t make me face the unknown future alone, okay? Please…”

Madeline lowered her head and pressed her forehead tightly against Jeremy’s forehead.

“Jeremy…”

“Eveline, what happened?” Sean looked at Jeremy who was lying on the ground unconscious and then glanced at the hole where the staircase had collapsed above him. He then instantly understood what happened.

“Eveline, send Jeremy to the hospital now!”

Madeline held Jeremy’s head and raised her teary eyes.

When she saw Jeremy’s appearance, she completely lost the ability to think. Her mind went blank.

She really, really did not want to experience such a gut-wrenching feeling again.

Madeline hugged Jeremy while being stuck in a daze. She did not know where he was injured, but she felt more at ease holding him like this and feeling the warmth on his body.

The ambulance arrived soon after and they carried Jeremy onto the stretcher.

Madeline got into the ambulance with Jeremy while Sean followed closely behind in his car.

However, after arriving at the hospital, Sean suddenly felt his hands and feet going cold.

He had forgotten about Eloise!

Sean talked to Madeline and immediately returned to Montgomery Manor. However, after searching all over the ruins, no trace of Eloise was seen.

At the entrance of the emergency room of the hospital, Madeline paced anxiously back and forth.

Jeremy was still unconscious even after being inside for a very long time. She called Sean again to ask about Eloise, but he did not answer the phone.

She looked at the red light of the emergency room anxiously while continuously turning the wedding ring on her finger.

However, even after a long time, the rescue was not done yet.

Madeline felt even more restless.

“Eveline.” Sean’s voice came from one side.

Madeline looked up. “Dad!” She hurried over and looked behind Sean several times. “Where’s my mother?”

Sean furrowed his thick eyebrows. “After I went back, your mother was no longer there. I searched everywhere several times but I still couldn’t find her.”

Madeline’s heart sank again. She felt as if her whole mind was in a mess.

She closed her eyes in distress and felt as if the darkness was engulfing her body.

She had been too careless.

If she had not suggested bringing Eloise back to the ruins of Montgomery Manor, these things would not have happened.

“Eveline, don’t worry too much. Your mother will be fine. She’s only temporarily lost. I’ll go look for her now, so don’t blame yourself.”

Sean knew his daughter and could see that Madeline was blaming herself.

Madeline nodded and did not want to spread her negative emotions.

Sean glanced at the emergency room before comforting Madeline. “You and Jeremy have experienced so much, so I believe God won’t be so cruel. He’ll be fine.”

“Yeah.” Madeline nodded dumbly. Then, the door to the emergency room finally opened.

When she spotted the doctor, Madeline rushed over and asked immediately, “Doctor, how’s my husband? Is he okay?”

Sean followed closely to understand the situation.

The doctor took off his mask and smiled. “Fortunately, he didn’t hurt his vital organs. He just passed out temporarily and will wake up soon.”
