Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1225

Chapter 1225

Madeline sat up. She ignored the searing pain on her arm and removed her hand from the man’s grip. “Go now!”

However, after she was finally out of Jeremy’s grip, he pulled her close and held her tightly. “Linnie, don’t chase me away.”

“…” Madeline felt a wave of sadness crashing against her heart. She felt tears falling from her eyes.

Of course, she wanted him to stay with her, but this was not the time to be romantic.

She knew Jeremy would be worried and reluctant to leave, so Madeline softened her voice and patted the man’s shoulder. “Jeremy, listen to me. I’m fine. It’s just a flesh wound. It’ll heal in a few days.”

She comforted, then her voice became firm.

“The most important thing right now is proving your innocence.”

“No, you’re the most important right now.” Jeremy let go of his arms and cupped Madeline’s pale face. “I can’t let my wife get hurt because of me again.”

Madeline felt that Jeremy was feeling sorry for her, but at the same time, she felt sorry for him as well.

“Jeremy, as your wife, I’m happy to bleed and cry for you. Don’t blame yourself.”

She caressed his face and noticed that he looked even worse than before.

“Did you experience another burst of pain at the roof just now? Are you in a lot of pain?”

Jeremy did not plan to hide from her any longer. He nodded. “I’m used to it now.”

Madeline frowned and felt slightly remorseful. “You shouldn’t have thrown away the last three bottles. At least you can use it when you’re suffering.”

Jeremy shook his head and held Madeline’s hand. “I can endure this pain. The pain that I can’t endure is when you’re not with me.”

Madeline felt a tightness in her heart when she heard that.

She understood what Jeremy was saying. However, she still said, “Jeremy, listen to me and go.”

“Linnie.”

“Go. If not, I’ll ignore you forever.”
