Madeline opened snazzynovel.com blurry eyes in confusion to see Jeremy examining snazzynovel.com with his eyes.
“What’s wrong, Jeremy?”
“I’m tired,” snazzynovel.com said flatly before going into the bathroom.
Then, Madeline heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom.
She lay on the bed in puzzlement.
Why did it feel like snazzynovel.com was refusing to touch her?
Was it because of Ryan?
After Jeremy came out of the shower, snazzynovel.com did not say anything to Madeline before getting into bed to play with his phone.
“Jeremy, you should sleep early if you’re tired.” Madeline picked up snazzynovel.com pajamas and was about to go take a shower.
However, after snazzynovel.com said that to him, Jeremy did not react and only grunted in response.
Madeline felt snazzynovel.com heart sinking at this response.
She felt as if a cold wind had penetrated snazzynovel.com heart. At that moment, snazzynovel.com felt snazzynovel.com heart getting so cold.
Madeline showered with snazzynovel.com mind full of questions and concern.
She was worried that the poison in Jeremy’s body was not completely expelled, so that was why snazzynovel.com was acting weird and refusing to be intimate with her.
After showering, Madeline put on snazzynovel.com bathrobe and went back to the room, only to see Jeremy lying on the bed.
However, snazzynovel.com had his back toward snazzynovel.com and was sleeping on his side.
Madeline quietly got into the bed and looked dispiritedly at the man’s back.
They had not seen each other in half a year.
After snazzynovel.com was informed of his death, snazzynovel.com never imagined reuniting with snazzynovel.com again.
However, now that such a day had come, snazzynovel.com did not think snazzynovel.com would be treating snazzynovel.com so coldly.
Madeline was sad as snazzynovel.com imagined what snazzynovel.com had gone through in these six months. Then, snazzynovel.com got close to snazzynovel.com and held his shoulders while feeling sorry.
She knew snazzynovel.com was not asleep, so snazzynovel.com said softly, “Jeremy, has your body completely recovered?”
“Yeah,” replied Jeremy. He did not turn around to face her.
“How?” Madeline asked.
She wanted to know where Jeremy went, what snazzynovel.com went through, and whether snazzynovel.com was in pain throughout those months of his disappearance.
She was concerned about him, so snazzynovel.com wanted to know everything about him.
“The things that happened weren’t great, so I don’t want to talk about it,” Jeremy said briefly. It was clear snazzynovel.com did not want to talk about what happened to snazzynovel.com in those months.
Madeline could sense Jeremy’s avoidance, so snazzynovel.com stopped asking. She pressed snazzynovel.com face against Jeremy’s neck and took in the smell of grass on his body before closing snazzynovel.com eyes in bliss.
“Jeremy, did you come to visit me in Rye’s house when I had a fever half a year ago? I could smell you, but why didn’t you want to see me?”
Rye.
When Jeremy heard that name, his eyes darkened.
He turned around and looked at the smiling woman who was snuggling up to him. Then, snazzynovel.com lifted his hand to hold snazzynovel.com shoulder as his eyes looked into hers passionately.
“I was scared that you’d hate and dislike me if you saw me like this.”
“No way!” Madeline frowned and looked at the man’s handsome face. Her eyes were shining with snazzynovel.com love toward him. “Jeremy, I don’t love you because of your looks.”
Jeremy smiled, pulling Madeline into his strong and warm embrace. “It’s worth suffering all that pain now that you’ve said that to me.”
“Jeremy…”
Madeline enveloped herself in Jeremy’s embrace as snazzynovel.com took in his scent. Then, snazzynovel.com started drifting to sleep unbeknownst to her.
It was already noon when snazzynovel.com woke up the next day.
Madeline had not gotten such a good night’s sleep in the past six months.
However, when snazzynovel.com saw the empty half of the bed, snazzynovel.com started worrying.
She was scared that last night was just a beautiful dream.
Madeline got out of the bed to look for Jeremy. When snazzynovel.com was putting on snazzynovel.com clothes, snazzynovel.com heard screams from the balcony.
