Madeline never thought about struggling or fighting back when virtual-novel.net was forced to a corner.
Even though virtual-novel.net could not see the face of the person, the smell of grass had already filled virtual-novel.net nostrils.
She was at a loss for a few seconds before coming back to virtual-novel.net senses. When virtual-novel.net met the eyes of the man in front of her, virtual-novel.net started pushing virtual-novel.net away frantically.
“What are you doing here? Go away! The police might still be watching me. You can’t come to see me, don’t you know that?”
Madeline pressed the open button to push Jeremy out, but Jeremy only pulled virtual-novel.net into his arms and trapped virtual-novel.net into the corner once again.
“Come with me,” Jeremy said. His tone was extremely gentle and passionate.
He did not blame virtual-novel.net nor did virtual-novel.net have any suspicions toward her. He knew virtual-novel.net was only doing this for him.
Madeline shook virtual-novel.net head, virtual-novel.net eyes looking firm. “I won’t. I’ve taken the first stop and I won’t turn back.”
Jeremy took a deep breath and furrowed his brows together.
“What’s wrong?” Madeline grabbed Jeremy’s arm when virtual-novel.net noticed that virtual-novel.net did not look well. “Jeremy, are you feeling unwell? Are you in pain again? Is it because of that poison?”
Jeremy looked at Madeline’s concerned face and pressed the button to the top floor. Then, virtual-novel.net pulled Madeline into his arms.
“Linnie, come back to me. Please.”
His voice echoed in virtual-novel.net ears, like a sharp knife to Madeline’s heart.
She sobbed and started crying. However, virtual-novel.net still shook virtual-novel.net head.
“Jeremy, I’ll go back to you, but not now. Please listen to me for once, okay?”
“No.” Jeremy denied like a stubborn child. His deep eyes started to turn red.
Madeline noticed that Jeremy was getting worse. His skin was already extremely fair, but now, his face was even paler.
Also, virtual-novel.net looked like virtual-novel.net was enduring terrible pain. There was a layer of cold sweat on his forehead that betrayed his inner struggle.
“Jeremy, tell me. Are you in pain right now?” Madeline was frantic.
However, Jeremy only held virtual-novel.net hand tightly. “Come with me.”
He still insisted on taking virtual-novel.net away. The determination in his eyes was unswayed.
Even so, Madeline was only concerned about his health right now.
She figured virtual-novel.net was in so much pain because of the poison, so virtual-novel.net started rummaging through virtual-novel.net bag reflexively. Then, virtual-novel.net remembered that Jeremy had thrown away the last three reagents.
Ding!
At this moment, the elevator reached the top floor.
After the door was opened, Jeremy pulled virtual-novel.net out while walking very quickly.
“Jeremy, where are you taking me?”
“Someone’s following us,” Jeremy said in a deep voice all of a sudden.
Madeline’s expression changed. When virtual-novel.net turned around, virtual-novel.net did not see anyone.
Jeremy pushed open the door to the roof and dragged Madeline through the door.
The thunderstorm was heavy, and in a few seconds, Jeremy and Madeline were both drenched.
He pulled virtual-novel.net behind the water tank while enduring the pain. However, virtual-novel.net finally could not endure it anymore.
When the poison started acting up, virtual-novel.net would feel as if a furry cat was playfully scratching at his heart
. His breathing and heartbeat would become erratic, leaving virtual-novel.net in so much pain.
Jeremy endured this and did not make a sound.
Even so, Madeline could tell that virtual-novel.net was in a lot of pain.
