Chapter 1392
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
After receiving an affirmative answer from the doctor, the weight on Madelineâs heart was slowly lifted off.
However, even though Jeremy was fine, Eloise was still missing.
âEveline, take care of Jeremy. Iâll find your mother.â Sean patted Madeline on the shoulder before turning around.
When Madeline watched Seanâs back as he hurried away, Madeline could understand how her father was feeling at the moment.
Eloise was the love of Seanâs life just like how she loved Jeremy. If something happened to the person she loved the most, the anxiety in her heart would be indescribable.
Jeremy was transferred to the general ward where Madeline stayed beside his bed.
She looked at the sunshine on his handsome and resolute face. His eyebrows and eyes looked so gentle.
Madeline held Jeremyâs hand, clasped his fingers, and kissed the back of his hand after lowering her head. âJeremy, I knew you took the risk for me because you were concerned about my safety. Thank you.â
âWeâre husband and wife. You donât have to thank me.â
Suddenly, she heard a gentle and charming voice gliding into her ears.
Madeline lifted her head, her teary eyes meeting Jeremyâs smiling and passionate narrow eyes.
âJeremy, youâre awake!â Madeline got closer to him.
âYeah.â Jeremy lifted his hand and stroked Madelineâs cheek. âIâm sorry I made you worry, darling.â
âIâm fine as long as you are.â Madeline felt tears stinging the corners of her eyes. âJeremy, I was so scared that something might have happened to you.â
âDonât be scared. I promised that Iâll take care of you and stay with you for the rest of our lives. I wonât go back on my promise again.â
Madeline smiled with tears in her eyes and leaned down to press a kiss on the corner of Jeremyâs lips.
Jeremy smiled softly and suddenly remembered something. âWhereâs Mom? I wanted to go upstairs to look for her, but when I stepped on the stairs, the wood under me collapsed. I donât think sheâs even upstairs.â
After he said that, Jeremy saw the melancholy on Madelineâs face.
âMomâs missing.â
âMissing?â Jeremy sat up slowly. âLinnie, donât worry. Sheâll be fine. Iâll start sending people to look for her.â
âJeremy, you should rest first.â Madeline stopped him. âDadâs looking for her now. She should be around the ruins of Montgomery Manor. Rest well. I donât want anything to happen to you again.â
Jeremy understood how Madeline was dealing right now, so he did not insist on it. On the other hand, he called Ken and told him to get more people to look for Eloise.
After he hung up the phone, Felipe called him.
Felipe wanted to ask Jeremy to pull some strings to get the camera footage from the junction that day.
It was then he found out that Jeremy was in the hospital.
As his uncle, Felipe was truly concerned about Jeremy. Even though Jeremy told him he was fine, he still ran to the hospital with a worried heart.
Felipe hurried to the entrance of the hospital. When he was about to go in, a ball rolled to the side of his foot.
He lowered his head to look down. Then, he saw a tiny figure running toward him from the corner of his eyes.
âUncle. Ball. Mine.â
He heard a childish voice talking next to him.
Felipe found that this voice was familiar. When he turned his head to look, he saw the little boy who held his hand on the side of the street that day.
He felt pleased when he saw his pure smiling face.
âHey buddy, why are you kicking your ball at the door of the hospital?â Felipe smiled and handed the ball over.
The little guy blinked his lively eyes and explained seriously, âMommy and I are waiting for Daddy. I didnât kick the ball. The ball fell itself.â
It seemed that he was waiting for his father. Felipe smiled gently and lifted his head to caress his hair.
âJuan, who are you talking to? Weâre going home.â
A womanâs sweet and melodic voice sounded from in front of him and Felipe was taken aback. When he lifted his head, his eyes met with a pair of extremely familiar large eyes.
Felipe was completely stunned.
He was sure that this was not a dream.
Felipe walked toward Cathy who was standing not far away absent-mindedly. Her face was how she used to look and not after she underwent plastic surgery.
Felipe did not know why this was happening, but he was so happy that he started sobbing.
âCathy, it really is youâ¦â
