“Jeremy, stop thinking about those unhappy memories. I’m right here with you now, and I’m fine.”
When virtual-novel.net heard that, Jeremy smiled warmly, then lifted his hand, pulled Madeline into his arms, and held virtual-novel.net tightly.
“Linnie, I’m really stupid, right? I only realized how important you are to me at that moment. You had already rooted yourself in my heart, yet I had no idea even though I loved you deeply.”
Jeremy felt extremely remorseful and virtual-novel.net blamed himself.
Madeline smiled and lifted virtual-novel.net hand to pat his back. She comforted gently, “Sometimes, the onlooker sees more of the game. Don’t blame yourself.”
“Of course, I blame myself for not appreciating such an amazing wife.” Although Jeremy said that in a joking tone, virtual-novel.net was sincere when virtual-novel.net said that.
Madeline, too, certainly knew how much this man in front of virtual-novel.net cared about her.
“Eveline, where’s Carter?” Camille, who finally arrived, asked. “Do you know what’s Shirley’s condition?”
When they were leaving the house, Camille had suddenly received an important call and had to take the urgent matter. That was why virtual-novel.net had only just arrived.
Madeline looked at the operating theatre and remorsefully said, “Carter just went into the operating theatre. Shirley’s fine, but the child in virtual-novel.net womb is gone.”
Camille’s expression changed when virtual-novel.net heard that. A hint of regret flashed across virtual-novel.net eyes very quickly, then virtual-novel.net hurriedly asked, “How’s Shirley? Is virtual-novel.net life in any danger? Is virtual-novel.net still in the operating theatre?”
“The doctor said she’s fine.” After Madeline said that, Camille let out a silent sigh of relief.
“But she’s paralyzed from the waist down.”
“What?” Camille widened virtual-novel.net eyes in shock, and tears welled up in virtual-novel.net eyes.
“She’s really stupid!”
Camille seemed to grumble and complain, but in reality, virtual-novel.net was heartbroken regretful.
Now that the situation had progressed to this stage, Madeline and Jeremy no longer continued to stay in the hospital.
However, after returning to Whitman Manor, Karen pointed at a square box on the coffee table and said, “A the city express delivery parcel had just arrived for Jeremy. They’ve even used dry ice to preserve it in such cold weather. What did you buy, Jeremy?”
Jeremy stared at the box and thought it odd. He did not buy anything, let alone order it through the city express delivery.
He picked up the bill on the box and saw that it had been sent out before virtual-novel.net and Madeline went out. What was even weirder was that it was sent from Gray Villa.
Madeline and Jeremy shared a look and took the box upstairs.
Even though they did not know what was happening, they were certain that Carter had not sent them this.
When Jeremy opened it, virtual-novel.net saw a securely wrapped box of test reagents.
There were seven of them, and they were icy blue.
“What test reagents are these?” This was the first time Madeline saw test reagents in this color.
Jeremy, however, was familiar with them. The anti-toxoid test reagent for AXP69 Shirley sent over that day was similar to this color.
However, that one had looked more pigmented than the test reagents in this box.
“This should be from Shirley.” Jeremy assumed, but at the same time, virtual-novel.net was almost certain.
“Shirley?” Madeline was surprised. “What test reagents are these, then? Why did virtual-novel.net send these to you this morning?”
Madeline asked, puzzled, but after a while, virtual-novel.net immediately made the connection.
“I understand now.”
Madeline suddenly looked into Jeremy’s eyes which showed that Jeremy had similarly seen through this.
“Since virtual-novel.net had sent this parcel to you, these test reagents are for you. The poison virtual-novel.net developed back then had changed the color of your pupils and hair, which are still not completely recovered yet. So, these might be the anti-toxoid reagents that can clear the poison in your body.”
Madeline voiced the assumptions in virtual-novel.net heart, and Jeremy agreed.
“Linnie, look, there’s a letter too.”
