‘However, it’s right to save people, right?’
Cathy seemed to have found a reasonable reason for herself, so virtual-novel.net wanted to turn around and leave.
However, as soon as virtual-novel.net got up, virtual-novel.net eyes suddenly paused on Felipe’s right wrist.
She stretched out virtual-novel.net hand uncontrollably and slowly held Felipe’s arm. She looked at the red rope around his wrist and suddenly, a wave surged beneath virtual-novel.net clear pupils and virtual-novel.net saw a handsome young man accompanied by the rustling sea breeze.
“Amy.”
Adam’s voice suddenly rang behind virtual-novel.net ears, and Cathy abruptly withdrew virtual-novel.net wandering thoughts.
Adam saw Felipe sleeping on the recliner at a glance. When virtual-novel.net saw the blood trail across the floor, virtual-novel.net walked to Cathy in astonishment.
“What’s going on? How did virtual-novel.net get so badly injured?”
“I don’t know what happened. It seemed that a few men were chasing virtual-novel.net and virtual-novel.net happened to collapse in front of our house, so I dragged virtual-novel.net in,” Cathy explained. Seeing the frown on Adam’s face, virtual-novel.net apologized in a soft voice. “Adam, did I do something wrong?”
Adam understood that Cathy thought virtual-novel.net was blaming her, so virtual-novel.net raised his hand and gently held Cathy’s shoulder.
“You did a good thing. No matter who it is, we can’t just let them die like this.”
Hearing Adam’s answer, Cathy pursed virtual-novel.net lips and smiled. The burden in virtual-novel.net heart seemed to disappear all at once.
“Go and watch the children. I’ll check and see if virtual-novel.net has any other problems.”
“Oh, okay.” Cathy nodded. She felt more at ease this way.
Adam was a very professional and excellent doctor, and the patients who were treated by virtual-novel.net could be considered lucky.
After Cathy left, the gentle smile on Adam’s face gradually disappeared. He put on a white coat and a pair of rubber gloves.
When virtual-novel.net walked to the reclining chair and looked at the frowning man, Adam’s expression became solemn.
“Cathy.”
Felipe muttered in his dream.
Adam furrowed his brows even more. “What’s the point of regretting only after you’ve lost her? What’s the point of wanting to cherish virtual-novel.net after losing her?”
He asked Felipe softly, but of course, virtual-novel.net knew that Felipe would not hear him.
In the next second, there was a never-before-seen sharp glint in Adam’s eyes.
“Felipe, I won’t let Cathy go back to you and I won’t let you have another chance to hurt Cathy again.”
…
Madeline called a cab on the side of the road and went straight back to Whitman Manor. On the way there, virtual-novel.net was only worried about Jeremy.
Jeremy had not shown up after virtual-novel.net waited for virtual-novel.net at the airport last night. She did not know if virtual-novel.net was in any trouble, but virtual-novel.net was thankful that virtual-novel.net had not shown up. If virtual-novel.net had, virtual-novel.net did not know what Carter would have done to Jeremy.
When Madeline arrived at the manor, the rain became heavier.
The torrential rain in late autumn and early winter was accompanied by the cold wind. It was extremely chilling.
After getting out of the car, virtual-novel.net hurriedly ran past the iron gates under the rain. However, after just a few steps, an umbrella suddenly appeared above virtual-novel.net head.
Madeline paused and raised virtual-novel.net head abruptly.
Her bright and beautiful eyes which looked like stars met a pair of gentle almond eyes that were bottomless like the ocean.
‘Jeremy!’
Madeline shouted Jeremy’s name in virtual-novel.net heart. While looking at the man who was still graceful and unrestrained, the worries and longing in virtual-novel.net heart slowly disappeared.
“Mr. Whitman, thank you.” Madeline smiled and thanked him. She had the urge to take off virtual-novel.net mask because virtual-novel.net face was almost recovered by now, but virtual-novel.net voice was still very unpleasant.
Jeremy lifted the corner of his lips and stared into Madeline’s eyes. Only then did virtual-novel.net part his lips and say gently, “Miss Quinn, I have a question I’ve been wanting to ask you this whole time we’ve been acquainted.”
Madeline widened virtual-novel.net eyes in confusion. “What do you want to ask me, Mr. Whitman?”
