Chapter 841
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Even though Jeremy was not a doctor, he knew how to read data and indexes.
He took out his phone and took a picture of all of the papers. Then, he sent them to Adam.
With the result in hand, he ran to the doctorâs office.
The doctor looked at the result and frowned. âDid your wife have a tumor in the same place previously?
If she did, then it might be a relapse.â
Jeremy felt his temple throbbing. Then, he remembered the time when he was told Madeline was sick and already at the end of her life.
He did not expect the same thing to happen again.
âIf she decides to take the risk and give birth to this baby, she might die. You should arrange for surgery as soon as possible. It wonât be too late for you to have another child when she recovers.â
Jeremy walked out of the clinic dispiritedly. He firmly believed that this child belonged to Felipe.
However, for some reason, after he heard this news, he felt sorry for Madeline. At the same time, he felt heartbroken and remorseful for having to abort this child.
At this moment, he received Adamâs reply: [Maddie has signs of relapse. You should advise her to give up on this child and have the tumor removal surgery as soon as possible. The risk regarding this surgery is small and she has a near 100 percent chance of recovering. If she delays this, sheâll be in trouble. After all, you already have two children. Itâs not too late to have another after she recovers.]
When he saw this reply, Jeremy felt his hands turning cold.
He had told Madeline to give up on this child before.
However, when the time came, he felt like there were a thousand knives plunged into his heart.
When he saw Madeline coming back, he put the result away and walked to her as if nothing happened.
âIs the result out yet?â Madeline asked.
Jeremy nodded. âIâve asked the doctor to take a look at it. Thereâs nothing major, but you still have to come back for another check-up tomorrow.â
âTomorrow?â Madeline felt that it was a little unreasonable, but she did not suspect anything.
Jeremy felt even worse when he saw that Madeline believed him.
However, if he told her the truth, it would only trouble her even more. Plus, he was worried that she would protect the child and risk her life like how she did before.
âAre you still in pain?â He looked at Madeline who had no idea about the hurt behind his gaze.
âMuch better.â
Jeremy felt relieved after he got this answer.
He was about to leave with Madeline when he noticed someone strange and suspicious appearing in his vision.
He figured that it was one of Felipeâs men, so he grabbed Madelineâs hand. âLetâs go.â
Madeline did not know what was going on before she was pulled out of the hospital by Jeremy.
However, from Jeremyâs stern and vigilant gaze, she figured that Felipeâs men were around. That was why he was being so careful.
Jeremy pulled her into an alley, and after a while, there were some people in black walking past.
He lifted his hand and put it behind Madelineâs head. Then, he pressed it down to his chest.
When Madeline took in his scent, her heart started beating faster.
She recalled what happened last night and felt her ears heating up.
âLinnie, your heart is beating so fast.â
The manâs deep and seductive voice came from the top of her head.
Madeline held her breath and said coldly, âJeremy, go back to Glendale.â
âEven if I were to go back, Iâll bring my wife along with me.â
Wife.
That word sounded so melodic when it went into her ears, causing her to lose her spirit.
âLinnie, you still love me, right?â Jeremy asked softly. Then, he took out the necklace from under her shirt. âIf you donât care about me, you wouldnât still be keeping this shell.â
âTell me, why are you so cold to me? You have me in your heart. Last night was the best evidence.â
He exposed how she truly felt.
