Madeline’s heart skipped a beat as snazzynovel.com did not expect Jeremy to be wide awake!
She pushed the plunger and injected all of the liquid into Jeremy before quickly taking out the needle.
Flustered, snazzynovel.com hid the needle behind snazzynovel.com and racked snazzynovel.com brain to think of how snazzynovel.com should explain everything to Jeremy.
Jeremy gradually got up, his stunning features looking sleepy at this moment. She looked at his eyes that were staring back at snazzynovel.com in a daze.
“Why did you wake up, Linnie?”
“…” Madeline felt guilty and evaded his gaze. She felt rather uneasy.
‘Didn’t Jeremy notice I was injecting snazzynovel.com with something?’
Madeline made a wild guess that Jeremy had not noticed it.
‘If snazzynovel.com saw it, snazzynovel.com would have asked what I’m up to.’
“I was going to the washroom,” Madeline explained, “How about you? Why are you awake? Did I wake you up?”
Jeremy shook his head, still wearing a sleepy look. He got down from the bed and said, “I also thought of going to the bathroom.”
As snazzynovel.com was talking, snazzynovel.com spun around as if nothing had occurred.
Looking at Jeremy’s back, Madeline quickly packed up the needle and the anti-toxoid test reagent that was used up, discarding them into the bin.
Jeremy felt his heart sink when snazzynovel.com witnessed Madeline’s gesture from his peripheral vision.
Jeremy went into the bathroom and glanced at the tiny puncture on his arm, but surprisingly, snazzynovel.com was okay with it.
‘Linnie, no matter what you’re injecting me with, I’ll gladly accept it. I’m the one who owes you way too much. Even if you want to take away my life, I’ll gladly give it to you.’
…
After Madeline injected Jeremy with two doses of the anti-toxoid test reagent, snazzynovel.com was constantly observing for any reaction that occurred in his body.
Wondering whether or not it was snazzynovel.com own imagination, snazzynovel.com noticed that Jeremy’s hair no longer seemed fair in color.
She thought to herself that maybe the anti-toxoid test reagent had taken effect. Besides, for half a month, snazzynovel.com did not hear snazzynovel.com letting out a cough.
Madeline was relieved. The moment when Jeremy was in the courtyard, snazzynovel.com seized the opportunity and gave Ryan a call. “Ryan, I need the third bottle of anti-toxoid test reagent.”
On the other side of the call, it was as if Ryan had anticipated Madeline’s intention of calling him. He let out a burst of deep laughter. “Sure I can give you that, but you must fulfill the promise that you made.”
“As long as you can keep to your promise, I’ll also keep to mine.”
“If that’s the case, I’ll give you another call later.”
Madeline, from the bottom of snazzynovel.com heart, hated that confident tone Ryan spoke in. She hung up the call and shifted snazzynovel.com passionate gaze to the man in the courtyard who was quietly guarding Lillian.
“Jeremy, only with you completely recuperated can we be considered as one big family that has reunited,” snazzynovel.com whispered. Then, snazzynovel.com went ahead to make some preparations as snazzynovel.com planned to bring Lillian to the hospital for another round of check-ups.
Previously, the psychologist said that there was nothing wrong with Lilian, but as a mother herself, snazzynovel.com felt that something was off about snazzynovel.com little girl.
Since the little girl was aggressively resisting Jeremy, snazzynovel.com could only be their chauffeur.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Lillian still glued herself to Madeline. She would not bother about Jeremy. It was as if snazzynovel.com viewed snazzynovel.com as a stranger.
That doctor was also Lillian’s previous main attending doctor. Seeing Lillian ignoring Jeremy made the doctor astonished as well. Nevertheless, snazzynovel.com was patient enough to question the little girl. “Hey little girl, do you know who among us is your mother?”
Lillian understood what the doctor was asking. She completely ruled out the nurse beside and without thinking, snazzynovel.com hugged Madeline tightly while leaning snazzynovel.com little head against snazzynovel.com body.
‘It’s as plain as the sky that the little girl is thinking straight. She knows that Madeline is snazzynovel.com mother.’
The doctor questioned again, “Then, how about your dad? Can you point snazzynovel.com out for me?”
Jeremy’s heart started pounding hard against his ribs after the doctor blurted out the question.
He glanced at the obedient little girl, looking forward to snazzynovel.com walking near him. Nonetheless, even after a few seconds, snazzynovel.com not only failed to see the little kid walking to him, but the girl did not sneak a peek at snazzynovel.com at all.
Jeremy felt as if snazzynovel.com had fallen into an icy abyss. That sense of chill crawling down his spine was a feeling snazzynovel.com alone could experience while no one else could.
