Chapter 1792
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
âYou get the hell out of here now. Go back and tell Meredith that no matter what happens, Iâll not let her have her way!â
Madeline rejected stubbornly and forcefully.
She reached out her hands again to chase Jeremy away. âGet lost.â
Naturally, Jeremy would not leave. He made his way up to Madeline and grabbed her hand that was pointing at the entrance. In the next second, he held onto her in his arms tightly.
âLinnie, Iâm not going anywhere. I want to keep you company.â
Madelineâs expression abruptly changed at the sudden hug.
She used all her strength to free herself from Jeremyâs arms but failed.
âYouâre still trying to impersonate Jeremy! Let go of me now! Let go!â
In the face of Madelineâs struggle, Jeremy silently endured the pain and continued comforting her gently.
âLinnie, Iâm Jeremy. I really am Jeremy. Itâs my fault. I know what I did was wrong.â
Jeremy kept apologizing but Madeline was still emotionally agitated.
When Madeline realized that Jeremy did not intend to release her, her eyes turned red, and she just lowered her head. Next, she opened her mouth and ruthlessly bit Jeremyâs shoulder.
Hiss.
A sharp pain began emanating from his shoulder. Jeremy frowned but did not make a sound.
If that would make Madeline feel slightly better, he would be willing to endure it, even at the expense of losing his skin.
However, the reason Madeline was biting him was to make Jeremy release her. Madelineâs emotions further lost control when she noticed Jeremy still hugging onto her.
âLet go of me. I want to see Jeremy. How could he be so cruel that he wonât even want to see me?
Heâd rather believe in the lies Meredith spouted than to listen to a single thing that I said.â
âWhy, Jeremy? Why are you being so cruel to me?! Youâre the one who said that youâll be with me for the rest of our lives!â
Madeline helplessly blurted those accusations, and each word drifted into Jeremyâs ears, making Jeremy feel as if his body was completely tornapart, and his eyes turned red and teary.
*Iâm sorry, Linnie. Iâm truly sorry.â
Jeremy hugged Madeline, and his lips were beside her ears as he kept apologizing.
Madeline, however, struggled even more forcefully.
âGo, get lost! I want to see Jeremy!â
Madeline was completely unable to recognize that the person before her was the man that she wanted to meet.
Her emotions and her thoughts were completely under the influence of the poison. The same goes for her self-control.
Click.
Suddenly, the door of the ward was pushed open.
Jeremy lifted his head and saw Fabian coming in with a man who he did not know.
Evan quickly walked to Madelineâs side and took out a tranquilizer needle, injecting it into Madelineâs arm.
âWho are you? What did you inject Madeline with?â Jeremy wanted to stop him.
âHeâs a friend of mine. Heâs a doctor. He injected your wife with a tranquilizer.â
Following Fabianâs explanation, Madeline slowly stopped talking and struggled no further. Her body, becoming weak, leaned onto Jeremy.
Jeremy firmly held Madeline, who was in deep sleep, and caressed her head, feeling heartbroken. He then placed her back on the hospital bed.
âInitially, I thought youâre the best psychiatrist who could treat her, but now, it seems that you too are not up for the task.â
Fabian said thoughtfully, then walked out with Evan.
After tucking Madeline in with a blanket, Jeremy followed them to the entrance, then called out to Fabian when he noticed Fabian was about to leave. âFabian.â
