Chapter 1888

“Jeremy, stop thinking about those unhappy memories. I’m right here with you now, and I’m fine.”

When he heard that, Jeremy smiled warmly, then lifted his hand, pulled Madeline into his arms, and held her tightly.

“Linnie, I’m really stupid, right? I only realized how important you are to me at that moment. You had already rooted yourself in my heart, yet I had no idea even though I loved you deeply.”

Jeremy felt extremely remorseful and he blamed himself.

Madeline smiled and lifted her hand to pat his back. She comforted gently, “ Sometimes, the onlooker sees more of the game. Don’t blame yourself.”

“Of course, I blame myself for not appreciating such an amazing wife.” Although Jeremy said that in a joking tone, he was sincere when he said that.

Madeline, too, certainly knew how much this man in front of her cared about her.

“Eveline, where’s Carter?” Camille, who finally arrived, asked. “Do you know what’s Shirley’s condition?”

When they were leaving the house, Camille had suddenly received an important call and had to take the urgent matter. That was why she had only just arrived.

Madeline looked at the operating theatre and remorsefully said, “Carter just went into the operating theatre. Shirley’s fine, but the child in her womb is gone.”

Camille’s expression changed when she heard that. A hint of regret flashed across her eyes very quickly, then she hurriedly asked, “ How’s Shirley? Is her life in any danger? Is she still in the operating theatre?”

“The doctor said she’s fine. ” After Madeline said that, Camille let out a silent sigh of relief.

“But she’s paralyzed from the waist down.”

“What?” Camille widened her eyes in shock, and tears welled up in her eyes.

“She’s really stupid! ”

Camille seemed to grumble and complain, but in reality, she was heartbroken regretful.

Now that the situation had progressed to this stage, Madeline and Jeremy no longer continued to stay in the hospital.

However, after returning to Whitman Manor, Karen pointed at a square box on the coffee table and said, “A the city express delivery parcel had just arrived for Jeremy. They’ve even used dry ice to preserve it in such cold weather. What did you buy, Jeremy? ”

Jeremy stared at the box and thought it odd. He did not buy anything, let alone order it through the city express delivery.

He picked up the bill on the box and saw that it had been sent out before he and Madeline went out.

What was even weirder was that it was sent from Gray Villa.

Madeline and Jeremy shared a look and took the box upstairs.

Even though they did not know what was happening, they were certain that Carter had not sent them this.

When Jeremy opened it, he saw a securely wrapped box of test reagents.

There were seven of them, and they were icy blue.

“What test reagents are these?” This was the first time Madeline saw test reagents in this color.

Jeremy, however, was familiar with them. The anti-toxoid test reagent for AXP69 Shirley sent over that day was similar to this color.

However, that one had looked more pigmented than the test reagents in this box.

“This should be from Shirley. ” Jeremy assumed, but at the same time, he was almost certain.

“Shirley?” Madeline was surprised. “What test reagents are these, then? Why did she send these to you this morning?”

Madeline asked, puzzled, but after a while, she immediately made the connection.

“I understand now.”

Madeline suddenly looked into Jeremy’s eyes which showed that Jeremy had similarly seen through this.

“Since she had sent this parcel to you, these test reagents are for you. The poison she developed back then had changed the color of your pupils and hair, which are still not completely recovered yet. So, these might be the anti-toxoid reagents that can clear the poison in your body.”

Madeline voiced the assumptions in her heart, and Jeremy agreed.

“Linnie, look, there’s a letter too.”
