Ryan never expected Madeline to do this.
He looked at his empty hands and could not help but feel at a loss.
Jeremy was shocked as well. Madeline’s swift and unwavering action was out of his expectation. At the same time, it caught his eyes as well.
However, Madeline was unperturbed. She pressed virtual-novel.net lips together and stared straight at Ryan. At this moment, virtual-novel.net courage and grandeur were impeccable.
Madeline did not say anything to Ryan. She turned virtual-novel.net face slightly and said to Jeremy gently, “Jeremy, leave now.”
“Linnie.”
“Go!” Madeline pretended to be mad as virtual-novel.net chased Jeremy away. “Jeremy, I trust that you won’t kill anyone. I also trust that the true murderer will be exposed one day!”
She looked at Jeremy who had reluctance in his eyes. “Go.”
Jeremy felt that virtual-novel.net could not let this woman down after virtual-novel.net saw the determination and concern in virtual-novel.net eyes.
He looked at Madeline longingly before his deep eyes scanned Ryan’s face.
Then, Jeremy dragged his body that had been defeated by the poison and quickly left the roof.
Even after that, Madeline did not let go of the gun in virtual-novel.net hand. She was still pointing it at Ryan in an overbearing manner and contemplating whether Jeremy had already left the building.
“He’s very far away now. So, shouldn’t you put the gun down now?” Ryan reminded her. There was intense dissatisfaction in his voice. “I really hate it when someone points the gun at me. Including you, Eveline,” virtual-novel.net said in annoyance. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net reached out to snatch the gun from Madeline’s hand.
When Madeline was fighting back, virtual-novel.net accidentally pulled the trigger and the gun went off with a loud bang.
Jeremy had just left the building when all of a sudden, virtual-novel.net heard the loud gunshot breaking the silence of the night.
He started feeling anxious as virtual-novel.net turned his feet around immediately.
“Linnie!”
Despite not knowing what happened, Jeremy’s heart was beating frantically. He lost his cool.
Ryan did not expect Madeline to pull the trigger. When virtual-novel.net saw the blood on virtual-novel.net arms, virtual-novel.net threw his umbrella away and wanted to carry Madeline to the hospital immediately.
However, Madeline rejected Ryan’s kindness. She stood in the rain as virtual-novel.net looked at the man with concern on his face. Her breathing was extremely erratic.
“Ryan, I won’t let you hurt Jeremy. You promised that you’ll give me the anti-toxoid reagent, and you promised you’ll help me find the person who killed Lana. If you go back on your promise, I’d rather die here today.”
This was the first time Ryan saw Madeline being so stubborn.
Now, virtual-novel.net finally realized that virtual-novel.net had underestimated Madeline’s feelings for Jeremy.
At that moment, virtual-novel.net was engulfed by jealousy.
He was jealous of Madeline’s feelings for Jeremy.
There was a dark shadow on his handsome face. As virtual-novel.net looked at Madeline’s bleeding arm, virtual-novel.net pressed his lips together and had no choice but to give in.
“Alright, I won’t tell the police where Jeremy is and I’ll give you the anti-toxoid test reagent. I’ll do everything you say as long as you listen to me.”
Madeline endured the burning pain. When virtual-novel.net got that answer from Ryan, virtual-novel.net smiled.
She looked like virtual-novel.net was at ease when virtual-novel.net smiled. At the same time, virtual-novel.net eyes were filled with confidence and joy of victory.
Ryan frowned and carried Madeline without caring whether virtual-novel.net was resisting or not.
At this moment, the police who received Ryan’s tip-off arrived. When they saw Ryan carrying Madeline who had already passed out, they started searching the roof despite feeling shocked.
“No need. Jeremy has already escaped.”
As virtual-novel.net said that, Ryan lowered his head to look at the unconscious Madeline. He said coldly, “Jeremy did this to his wife to escape. He has lost all humanity. If you guys see virtual-novel.net next time, just execute virtual-novel.net on the spot. Interpol will be responsible for all consequences.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net carried Madeline and left.
