This sentence came from Madeline’s mouth so naturally, but it pierced into Jeremy’s heart.
He could not help but remember his inappropriate behavior.
She always viewed virtual-novel.net as the man virtual-novel.net loved the most and virtual-novel.net husband. However, virtual-novel.net refused to admit virtual-novel.net status.
When virtual-novel.net thought about this, Jeremy did not know if it was a figment of his imagination but suddenly, virtual-novel.net felt a sharp pain in his heart. Then, a familiar dull pain washed over him. It even began getting harder for virtual-novel.net to breathe.
Madeline immediately noticed the changes in Jeremy’s expression. She grabbed his arm tightly, asking, “Jeremy, what’s wrong?”
Jeremy did not want Madeline to worry. He wanted to hide the fact that virtual-novel.net was feeling extremely unwell, but his labored breathing caused virtual-novel.net not to have the energy to speak.
Looking at Jeremy’s complexion that was getting worse, Madeline started to panic. “What’s wrong, Jeremy? What’s going on? Tell me where the discomfort is coming from.”
Madeline asked incoherently. Her eyes became red from the panic virtual-novel.net felt because of this unknown fear.
“The poison. I think the poison is flaring up again…” Jeremy figured this might be a possibility, so virtual-novel.net did not hide it from Madeline.
“Poison?” Madeline’s pupils constricted. She did not expect the remaining poison in Jeremy’s body to flare up at this moment. However, there was a fortunate smile on virtual-novel.net face. “Jeremy, don’t be scared. I brought the anti-toxoid test reagent. It’s the one Adam gave me!”
With a look of surprise, Jeremy looked at Madeline who was running to the bathroom. He did not expect Madeline to bring the anti-toxoid test reagent with virtual-novel.net wherever virtual-novel.net went.
No.
This did not make sense.
Jeremy was confused when finally, something clicked in his brain.
‘Did Linnie voluntarily come to St. Piaf with Carter? Was Linnie back to normal even before boarding the plane?’
After Jeremy came to this conclusion, virtual-novel.net saw Madeline walking out of the bathroom with a flurried look on virtual-novel.net face.
“I must have left it in Gray Manor,” Madeline muttered to herself restlessly. She ran to Jeremy’s side and helped virtual-novel.net to sit on the bed. “Jeremy, hold on. I’ll go out for a bit and I’ll come back very soon! You have to wait for me to come back!”
After Madeline told virtual-novel.net this, virtual-novel.net was about to go out when Jeremy grabbed virtual-novel.net and pulled virtual-novel.net back to him.
“Linnie.”
“Jeremy?”
“Linnie, answer me, was your hypnotism broken before you came to St. Piaf?” Jeremy asked as virtual-novel.net endured the agonizing and torturous pain while holding Madeline’s hand tightly.
Madeline nodded virtual-novel.net head without denying it. Her eyes were filled with apologies. “I’m sorry, Jeremy. I acted on my own accord. I wanted to know why Carter was investigating you and the reason virtual-novel.net was framing me, so I decided to beat virtual-novel.net at his own game, but I realized I made the wrong move.”
When Jeremy heard Madeline’s answer, virtual-novel.net did not feel so surprised anymore.
At the end of the day, virtual-novel.net was still doing this for him.
“Linnie.”
“Jeremy, I always carry one of the anti-toxoid test reagents Adam gave me back then with me wherever I go. I was wearing my clothes before I put on the wedding gown today, but the anti-toxoid test reagent in my pocket is gone. I think I must have lost it in Gray Manor so I have to go back now. I promise that I’ll come back to you safely.”
Madeline wanted to leave after virtual-novel.net promised Jeremy. However, Jeremy’s palm that was holding virtual-novel.net tightened.
