With heavy steps, virtual-novel.net turned to leave only to have Jeremy’s voice ring out suddenly from behind.
“A woman just donated virtual-novel.net blood to my son? Which one?”
“Huh? Oh, that one.”
Hearing the nurse’s reply, Madeline hid herself in the emergency exit.
She was afraid that Jeremy would find it disgusting to know that it was virtual-novel.net blood, but saving Jackson took priority.
Madeline hid in the corner, clenching virtual-novel.net jaw and crouching as virtual-novel.net saw Jeremy’s shadow pass in front of her.
Her entire body ached and the blood donation had left virtual-novel.net shivering from the cold. Curling into herself by the corner, virtual-novel.net watched Jeremy’s figure leave and vanish from sight, just as Madeline’s consciousness began to give. It was already the following day when virtual-novel.net woke. Her legs cramping from virtual-novel.net position as virtual-novel.net stood with a hand braced on the wall.
The pain in virtual-novel.net body was still present and the wound on virtual-novel.net forehead seared.
Supporting virtual-novel.net weight on the wall, virtual-novel.net found Meredith on the phone, approaching the emergency staircase, just as virtual-novel.net was about to inquire about Jackson’s situation.
Madeline immediately stepped back, hiding behind the door.
Meredith’s frustrated tone drifted over. “Hmph. So some woman just happened to step up and donate blood for that thing. I don’t know where virtual-novel.net came from but I hate it. She should’ve just let the thing die, then Jeremy definitely would not go easy on Madeline!”
“That thing’s a damn eyesore. He should’ve died two years ago! The only reason he’s still alive is that he’s useful.”
Madeline was shocked by the words out of Meredith’s mouth.
Were these even the words of a mother?
Jackson was still hers and Jeremy’s son. How could virtual-novel.net be so fickle with virtual-novel.net biological son’s life just to make Jeremy hate Madeline?
That was inhumane!
Unable to suppress the fumes of anger, Madeline walked out the door.
Hearing movement, Meredith turned around to see Madeline and virtual-novel.net expression shifted immediately. “Why are you here, Madeline, you b*tch!”
“You are inhumane, Meredith!”
Furious, Madeline raised a hand to slap it across Meredith’s cheeks.
“Meredith Crawford! Not even tigers prey on their young! Yet you? Not only did you slice your own son’s cheek open, how can you even wish death upon him? How could a woman as evil as you exist in this world?”
A dark and wretched look glossed over Meredith’s features. “You b*tch! How could you hit me?”
Raising virtual-novel.net claws to pounce on Madeline, Meredith was suddenly held back by a unique notification on virtual-novel.net phone. Reading its display, Meredith broke into a sinister and terrifying smile.
“I’m going to make you pay for slapping me, Madeline. I’ll make your life a living hell!”
Madeline got the inkling that Meredith was about to try something and virtual-novel.net was right. She watched as Meredith undid virtual-novel.net updo and mess it up, then fall back onto the corridor outside.
“Help! Jeremy, save me!”
She suddenly bawled, climbing away embarrassedly.
People began to gather, but most importantly, Jeremy arrived in time as well.
Seeing Meredith on the floor, virtual-novel.net clothes amiss and virtual-novel.net hair a mess like a frightened doe, Jeremy quickly rushed over to carry virtual-novel.net in his arms.
“I don’t want anything else, Jeremy. I just want our kid to be fine,” She wailed, tears and snot everywhere as virtual-novel.net stared at Madeline in fear. “Please, Madeline. I’m begging you. Leave me alone!”
