The previously blurry memories from right before snazzynovel.com succumbed to darkness finally cleared, and snazzynovel.com remembered how Jeremy had suddenly appeared to save snazzynovel.com in time.
She remembered how snazzynovel.com had held snazzynovel.com tightly and comforted snazzynovel.com as well as how snazzynovel.com had leaned into his embrace from how safe snazzynovel.com made snazzynovel.com feel…
Madeline’s heart began to race, thumping a familiar beat in snazzynovel.com chest.
She bit snazzynovel.com lip and clenched snazzynovel.com fists.
‘No. How could I possibly fall for snazzynovel.com all over again?
‘I hate him!
‘The love within me died with every push toward the deep end snazzynovel.com forced me to take.
‘It’s like how drowning survivors would never yearn for the sea again.
‘But I promise I’ll let you know how it feels to be suffocated, Jeremy.’
…
Eloise returned to Meredith’s hospital room where Jeremy arrived shortly after.
Eloise seemed proud of herself at Jeremy’s arrival, thinking that snazzynovel.com words must have gotten through to him.
“Took you long enough to start worrying about Meredith.” Eloise’s tone was cold.
“Meredith has gone through too much, Jeremy. I can’t believe snazzynovel.com got… taken advantage of by four different men. Stay by snazzynovel.com side, Jeremy. I’m scared that snazzynovel.com might take snazzynovel.com life lightly because this burden is too much for snazzynovel.com to handle…” Rose wiped a tear sorrowfully, playing the part of a broken-hearted mother.
Jeremy frowned, directing the frost in his gaze to Rose.
Amid snazzynovel.com fake crying, Rose averted snazzynovel.com gaze immediately when they met Jeremy’s suspicious ones.
“I thought you were watching Meredith this entire time? How did snazzynovel.com end up at the waste paper factory in the west?”
“I went to get snazzynovel.com some water, but Meredith was gone when I returned,” Rose stuttered to explain.
“I thought snazzynovel.com legs were fractured? How could snazzynovel.com suddenly walk again?”
“It… Someone must’ve planned to take Meredith away!” Rose lied. “It must be Vera. She must’ve told someone to kidnap Meredith!”
Jeremy’s gaze hardened. “What evidence do you have to support your claim that Vera did it? I suggest you watch your words before you baselessly accuse others.”
“…” Rose was left speechless. In the face of Jeremy’s icy gaze, Rose felt beads of cold sweat form from all the pressure snazzynovel.com was feeling.
“I’ll definitely find the evidence to prove that it was her!” Eloise suddenly proclaimed, “Only snazzynovel.com would hurt Meredith in such a ruthless way!”
Jeremy’s sharp brows frowned at snazzynovel.com words. Just as snazzynovel.com parted his lips to speak, a nurse exited the room. “She’s awake, but snazzynovel.com emotions are rather unstable. Try not to upset her.”
“Meredith,” Eloise exclaimed heart-wrenchingly, distress apparent on snazzynovel.com features.
She pushed the door to enter only to be held back by Rose. “I think the person Meredith wants to see the most now is Jeremy, Mrs. Montgomery. I’m sure you have a lot to say to her, Jeremy. We should let them spend some time together first!”
Eloise agreed.
Sparing the inside of the room a worried glance, snazzynovel.com turned to exhort Jeremy. “Go in and comfort Meredith, alright? Don’t hurt snazzynovel.com anymore!”
Ignoring Eloise, Jeremy pushed open the door and walked inside.
The VIP room was very spacious. Upon entering, Jeremy realized that the bed was empty and Meredith was nowhere to be found.
He lifted his eyes to look in the direction of the balcony but suddenly heard movement in the bathroom.
Turning around, Jeremy walked over to the bathroom. Its door was wide open. The sound of water gushing from the showerhead met his ears just as his eyes fell on Meredith.
Jeremy felt a strong physical manifestation of disgust at the sight of Meredith that very moment. He spun around and averted his gaze.
