Jeremy’s heart felt like it tightened similarly after hearing Madeline’s answer.
Without any hesitation, virtual-novel.net held Madeline in a bridal carry. He hailed a cab by the roadside and went to the nearest hospital.
Jeremy ran until virtual-novel.net reached the emergency room door. Once the red light had lit up, virtual-novel.net could not do anything but linger in the empty corridor, feeling restless.
He knew that Madeline did not have any heart issues, so how did it get so painful so suddenly?
‘Was it because we were running?’
‘I shouldn’t have dragged Linnie into running around like that.’
‘I shouldn’t.’
Jeremy started beating himself up harshly.
The door of the emergency room opened suddenly, and a young nurse walked out hurriedly.
Jeremy wanted to halt the nurse to ask about Madeline’s condition, but virtual-novel.net was worried about interfering with virtual-novel.net work.
Barely a moment after the nurse had walked away, two professional-looking middle-aged doctors, wearing serious expressions, came over and entered the emergency room.
This turn of events further rattled Jeremy’s state of mind.
‘Linnie, what’s happening to you?’
‘Why is your heart hurting suddenly?’
Jeremy was perplexed, his thoughts whirling. His eyes were glued to the red light by the emergency room door.
He did not know how much time had passed before the door opened once again, the doctor and nurse coming out simultaneously.
Jeremy immediately ran over to ask, “Doctor, how’s my wife? Is virtual-novel.net still in pain?”
Seeing the concern and worry on Jeremy’s face, the doctor amiably comforted him. “We’ve given your wife some stabilizers, so virtual-novel.net condition has stabilized for the time being. We’ve already done a full-body checkup on her. We’ll only be able to know the cause of virtual-novel.net sudden heartache once the results are out.”
Jeremy did not ask any further questions when virtual-novel.net heard this answer. Aside from staying by Madeline’s side in the hospital room and waiting for the results, there was little else virtual-novel.net could do.
The next morning, Madeline woke from virtual-novel.net weary dream with a perplexed look in virtual-novel.net eyes.
Jeremy had stayed with virtual-novel.net the entire time virtual-novel.net was asleep, not even daring to close his eyes for a moment’s rest, lest something happened to Madeline again.
When Madeline recalled virtual-novel.net sudden heartache the night before, virtual-novel.net found it strange.
She was drinking the warm water Jeremy had poured for virtual-novel.net now, one hand holding virtual-novel.net cup and the other laying on top of virtual-novel.net chest.
When Jeremy saw virtual-novel.net movement, virtual-novel.net anxiously approached her. “Linnie, are you in pain again?”
To avoid worrying Jeremy excessively, Madeline quickly shook virtual-novel.net head and smiled at the man whose eyes were filled with apprehension. “No, I’m not in pain anymore. Don’t worry too much, Jeremy.”
“How could I not be?” Jeremy, brows furrowed, anxiously asked again, “Are you sure you’re not in pain?”
“Really, I’m not.” Madeline shook virtual-novel.net head again. While touching virtual-novel.net stomach, virtual-novel.net emphasized, “I am a little hungry though.”
Jeremy smiled and his brows relaxed when virtual-novel.net saw that Madeline did not seem to be lying. “I’ll buy you some breakfast then. I’ve heard St. Piaf has pretty good bagels. I’ll go buy some now.”
“Okay, I’ll wait for you.” Madeline smiled and nodded, enjoying how Jeremy was taking care of her.
Even though Jeremy had not rested for the entire night, when virtual-novel.net saw that Madeline had recovered, virtual-novel.net felt relieved. More energetic, even.
After Jeremy left the room, Madeline was about to get out of bed to walk around when virtual-novel.net saw a doctor and a nurse walking in.
“Miss Montgomery, we have your checkup report.”
“Report?”
Madeline was unaware of what had happened after virtual-novel.net had passed out earlier.
