Chapter 991

At that moment, Madeline felt her mind going blank.

In the next moment, she opened the door of the car and called the ambulance with her shaking hands.

She ran to the side of the car. When she saw the bloody hand, she looked inside.

“Linnie, let’s start over…”

She heard Jeremy mumbling this as he fell unconscious.

Madeline’s tears rolled down her eyes. She felt extremely conflicted right now.

She did not want anything to happen to him, but she could not let down her dead parents.

The ambulance arrived after a while and they stabilized Jeremy quickly.

He did not have any internal damage. Most of his injuries were flesh wounds, but his left hand was hurt pretty badly. He could not lift anything heavy in the meantime. Plus, there was also a huge cut on his left calf that was bleeding profusely.

Jeremy started dreaming groggily again. He dreamed about the ship exploding and about Madeline leaving him.

He reached out his hand to grab Madeline’s hand, and in the process, he called out reluctantly, “Linnie, don’t leave me.”

He yelled and opened his eyes at the same time.

Then, what he saw was Ken’s awkward face. “Mr. Whitman, you’re awake.”

Jeremy noticed that he was holding Ken’s hand and remembered the scenes in his dream. He spaced out for a moment before letting go.

He coughed softly and sat up slowly.

Ken hurried over to help him up with a look of relief on his face. “Mr. Whitman, you finally remember!”

Jeremy paused, frowning. “Why am I here?”

“Mr. Whitman, have you lost your memories again? You had an accident this morning.”

“An accident?” Jeremy tried to recall what happened, but his head felt heavy. What happened at that moment was blurry as well.

He had no memory of such a serious accident.

He only remembered Madeline walking to him and telling him, “Jeremy, let’s start over.”

Jeremy came back to his senses abruptly. “Where’s Linnie?”

“Madam called me to tell me that you’re in the hospital. After I got here, she left.”

A look of delight appeared on Jeremy’s face. “Was she the one who sent me here?”

“The nurses did say that Mrs. Whitman was the one who called the ambulance for you.”

Jeremy felt his cracked heart heal slightly after he heard this answer.

‘Linnie, you still care about me.

‘However…’

Madeline was on her way to the kindergarten when she received Jeremy’s call.

She listened to the cheery ringtone from start to finish without picking up.

Immediately after, someone called her again.

The ringtone was different, so Madeline took a look at the caller ID and saw that it was Ryan.

She picked up and heard Ryan’s gentle voice. He was inviting her for dinner at his house.

He said his parents still wanted to apologize to her for what happened back then.

Madeline had already declined once, so she did not feel that it was appropriate to decline again.

Lessons had ended in the kindergarten.

Soon after, parents started arriving to pick their children up from school.

Jackson and Lillian were both waiting as well.

“Jackie, why is mommy not here yet?” Lillian blinked her curious eyes and asked.
