Chapter 1430
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Adam did not attend to Shirley either as he led both Madeline and Jeremy into his room where he worked.
The room was spacious, and the interior was decorated in a way that was way more superior to those seen in the hospital. There was various equipment that seemed rather advanced placed beside.
Madeline stood aside and watched Adam conducting various examinations on Jeremy.
Finally, Adam took a blood sample from Jeremy and immediately placed it on a piece of equipment to conduct the analysis.
Madeline was feeling perturbed during the waiting process.
However, she just noticed that the color of Jeremyâs blood sample was not as dark as it used to be.
That was a good sign.
Approximately ten minutes later, the result was out.
âAdam, is everything alright for Jeremy?â Madeline asked.
âDonât be too worried, Linnie. My condition will definitely be better than before.â Jeremy held onto Madelineâs hand and comforted her.
âIf youâre really much better, then why did your condition deteriorate suddenly on that day?â Madeline was still feeling worried and anxious.
Adam did not speak a word. He scanned through the analysis report twice. His eyes were gleaming but soon faded.
âThings are looking quite good. Thereâs nothing wrong,â said Adam as he looked at Madeline, âDonât worry too much. Heâll slowly recover.â
Hearing it made Madeline let out a breath of relief. âThanks, Adam.â
Adam let out a faint smile. He spun around and gave Madeline a reagent. âTake this for standby. Next time if his condition deteriorates, just give him a jab.â
âThanks.â Madeline received the reagent, and things started feeling more realistic.
Even though Madeline never suspected anything, Jeremy had noticed that Adamâs eyes were glittering weirdly.
He attempted to find an excuse to make Madeline leave the scene so that he could ask Adam face to face. However, coincidentally, he received a call from Karen. Karen was asking Madeline and Jeremy to go over to the hospital.
Jeremy did not delay a single second, worried that something might have happened to Eloise. He brought Madeline to leave the scene.
Seeing them driving their car and departing, Adam went back into the house but Shirley was nowhere to be seen.
Just when he was guessing where Shirley had gone to, he suddenly heard a commotion coming from the second floor.
He thought perhaps Shirley had entered one of the rooms. Adam dashed up to the second floor. Just when he reached the second floor, he noticed the door of the room where his parents used to stay was left open and the sound of items being thrown was heard coming from inside.
Adamâs expression changed for the worst as he dashed into the room. As soon as he entered, he saw Shirley holding onto a photo frame on the shelf above the bed. She was about to discard it on the floor.
âStop it!â Adam halted her.
Shirley came to a halt when she heard it, but she just let out a cold smile and threw the photo frame hard on the floor.
Crash! The glass photo frame broke into pieces.
âShirley Jones!â Adam roared at Shirley. He went forth, exasperated and anxious as he picked up the pieces of the shattered photo frame. However, the old photo frame already had a crack on it.
âWhy? Feeling sorry for the photo? Feeling sorry for the two dead people?â Shirley snorted.
Adam got up on his feet and glared. âHow can you say that? These are your biological parents! Youâre getting ridiculous!â He was mad and questioned, âDid you happen to do something to Jeremy again?
His condition had obviously improved but why did the poison suddenly take a change for the worse?
What the hell did you do?!â
Shirley curled her red lips disdainfully, raising her almond eyes and matching up to Adamâs infuriated ones. Then, she took out an item from her purse, not in a rush at all. âLook properly, what is this? Now, do you still need to ask what I did to him?â
