“Mer! Meredith! My baby!” Eloise was crying out hysterically. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net legs gave out and virtual-novel.net collapsed into Sean’s arms. She had passed out.
When Madeline saw this, virtual-novel.net heart ached.
Eloise was virtual-novel.net biological mother, after all. Despite Eloise not liking her, virtual-novel.net still hoped that Eloise and Sean would be fine.
However, they were being fooled by Meredith.
Madeline felt that this was hilarious. After gathering virtual-novel.net thoughts, virtual-novel.net saw Jeremy standing at the spot where Meredith had jumped just now.
He looked below with a grim expression on his face. Two seconds later, virtual-novel.net turned around and walked back.
“She only fell on the balcony. I think she’ll be fine,” Jeremy answered calmly. However, Madeline could see virtual-novel.net visibly letting out a sigh of relief.
He was still so concerned about Meredith, after all. He was worried that virtual-novel.net would be dead.
However, Madeline had already expected this to happen.
Meredith was well-prepared. She must have surveyed the layout and knew there would be a balcony down there. That was why virtual-novel.net was able to jump with no worries.
Despite that, Meredith was still sent to the emergency room.
Eloise had already regained consciousness now. When virtual-novel.net found out that Meredith had not fallen from more than 20 floors down, virtual-novel.net burst into tears from happiness.
When virtual-novel.net saw Jeremy, Eloise charged over to virtual-novel.net and complained angrily.
“Jeremy, how long will you continue tormenting my daughter? She gave so much of virtual-novel.net youth to you and at the end of the day, you’re still trying to hurt virtual-novel.net for the sake of such a despicable woman. Do you think Madeline isn’t enough so that’s why you found Vera? If Mer dies because of this, do you think you’ll be able to sleep at night?”
Jeremy listened to Eloise’s rants calmly without an expression on his face.
Sleep at night? When had virtual-novel.net ever gotten a good night’s sleep after Madeline died?
A few seconds later, Jeremy said profoundly, “In order to stop ‘tormenting’ her, I’ve called off the marriage.”
“What? Are you really calling off your marriage to Mer? Aren’t you pushing virtual-novel.net to virtual-novel.net death once again?”
After virtual-novel.net yelled at him, the door of the emergency room opened. Eloise and Sean ran over quickly to ask about Meredith’s condition.
The doctor sighed with regret. “There are multiple bone fractures in the patient’s body. Her legs are seriously injured. She might even be disabled.”
“Disabled?” Eloise’s face went white. “What do you mean? She won’t be able to walk normally anymore?”
“Don’t trigger the patient for the time being. There’s a high chance of complete recovery if you take good care of her,” said the doctor helplessly.
After Eloise heard that, virtual-novel.net clenched virtual-novel.net fists. “That Vera Quinn! I’m going to kill her!”
“Mrs. Montgomery, calm down. Mer is more important now!” Rose stopped her. Then, virtual-novel.net looked at Jeremy who had an icy expression on his face. “Jeremy, you’re our biggest hope for Mer’s recovery. She’ll definitely recover if you stay with virtual-novel.net and take care of her. Jeremy, you still remember how you promised Mer that you’d take care of virtual-novel.net when you were kids, right? You promised to take care of virtual-novel.net forever.”
Jeremy’s face turned solemn when Rose mentioned his promise from when they were younger.
Back then, virtual-novel.net had longed to fulfill that promise, but the moment Madeline left his life and when virtual-novel.net realized virtual-novel.net had fallen in love with her, that innocent promise turned into a lock that virtual-novel.net could not get rid of. It was weighing down on him.
The next day when Madeline was about to go out, virtual-novel.net was approached by a few police officers. They were saying that virtual-novel.net had plotted to kill Meredith, so they needed virtual-novel.net to go back with them to the station for investigation. They were being firm with her.
When virtual-novel.net recalled the cage that had tormented virtual-novel.net so much, virtual-novel.net refused to go back.
Even though it had been so many years, Madeline could not forget how virtual-novel.net was continuously vilified. She was trapped in that hellish place where virtual-novel.net was tortured again and again. She was repeatedly humiliated, and in the end, virtual-novel.net child was even taken away from virtual-novel.net brutally.
She would never go back to that place again!
Never!
When Madeline was about to be taken away forcefully, a sports car stopped in front of the police car.
