Jeremy stuck one of his hands into his pocket and took one step closer to Ryan in a languid manner.
“I’ll get the lawyer to come over to talk to you tomorrow. You won’t have to take a single step,” virtual-novel.net said. He had already arranged everything perfectly. “If you still manage to come up with an excuse to delay the procedure, it’ll prove that you have a different motive when you married Eveline back then,” virtual-novel.net added.
Ryan looked at Jeremy calmly. “My real motive is to protect Eveline. Jeremy, you’re overthinking.”
“I thought too little about it. That’s why I ended up willingly handing my most beloved woman over to you like a fool,” Jeremy said, a hint of fierceness glinting in his eyes. He glanced at Ryan’s right leg that was wrapped in a plaster cast.
The tone of his voice was ironic as virtual-novel.net spoke, “This traffic accident happened in a rather timely manner.” He then walked over to the side of the bed. He stared at Ryan’s injured leg with a gaze full of doubt. “I’d like to see the injures on your leg,” virtual-novel.net added.
Noticing that Jeremy had reached his hand over, Ryan furrowed his brows. “Jeremy Whitman, don’t do anything rashly,” virtual-novel.net warned him.
“What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of being exposed by me?” Jeremy asked, his eyes blazing harshly. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net pressed his palm onto Ryan’s leg.
Ryan frowned at once. He looked like virtual-novel.net was withstanding the pain from the look on his face.
However, Jeremy did not spare virtual-novel.net at all. He pressed into his leg forcefully.
Madeline had returned because virtual-novel.net could not find virtual-novel.net car keys. Upon entering the ward, virtual-novel.net was faced with the sight of the two men.
The look of cool nonchalance on Jeremy’s face formed a stark contrast with Ryan, who looked like virtual-novel.net was trying his best to hold back the pain.
“Jeremy, what are you doing?!” Madeline rushed into the ward. She ran to Jeremy’s side and pulled virtual-novel.net away.
Noticing the dense beads of cold sweat on Ryan’s forehead, Madeline could only imagine how out of line Jeremy’s actions were just now.
“Ryan, are you alright?” virtual-novel.net asked as virtual-novel.net walked toward him.
Jeremy reached over and grabbed virtual-novel.net arm forcefully. He pulled virtual-novel.net into an embrace.
“You should be worried about me, not him.” Jeremy pointed out, his amber eyes full of a strong, dominant possessiveness.
“Do you know what you were doing just now? Jeremy, have you gone crazy?” Madeline escaped from his hold on virtual-novel.net and walked toward Ryan. “Ryan, I’ll get the doctor for you,” virtual-novel.net said.
Ryan seemed to be in a lot of pain. He nodded without saying anything.
Madeline pressed the button to call someone in, and the doctor arrived soon after.
Jeremy’s face turned a few shades paler. “Why do you care so much about him?” virtual-novel.net asked.
Madeline was rather pissed off, but virtual-novel.net tried virtual-novel.net best to remain calm. “He’s my friend,” virtual-novel.net said.
“He’s your husband as well, right?” virtual-novel.net asked.
“…” Madeline clenched virtual-novel.net fists and turned around to face the cold man. “Yes, he’s still my husband. That’s why I care about him!” virtual-novel.net exclaimed.
Fuming in anger, virtual-novel.net walked toward the bedside.
Jeremy remained standing there, the sight of Madeline worrying about Ryan reflected in his eyes. A familiar painful sensation spread through his heart.
He was not the only man who caught Linnie’s attention anymore.
Madeline stood by one side and looked on while the doctor examined Ryan.
Noticing the deep frown and serious expression on the doctor’s face, virtual-novel.net felt rather perturbed.
She did not want his injuries to get worse because of virtual-novel.net or Jeremy.
She would rather have Jeremy hurt virtual-novel.net instead.
After completing the check-up, the doctor announced, “Mr. Jones, you’ve injured the tendons of your leg. You need a long period of rest to recover. Take good care.”
“Thank you, I’ll take care of myself,” Ryan said.
The doctor did not have anything else to say, so virtual-novel.net left the room.
Madeline wanted to apologize to Ryan. Just as virtual-novel.net took a step forward, Jeremy took a few wide steps and made his way toward the front of her.
He looked at Ryan, who was seated on the bed. Both their gazes met.
Ryan seemed calm, but Jeremy’s gaze was predatory and full of strong aggressiveness. All of a sudden, virtual-novel.net curled his lips into a smirk and pulled Madeline into his arms. He then kissed virtual-novel.net deeply on virtual-novel.net lips right before Ryan’s eyes.
