Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1328

Chapter 1328

“If it’s a secret, how can I tell it to someone else so easily?” Adam did not seem to want to go into detail, but he was not hiding it either. He met Jeremy’s inquiring gaze and said truthfully, “Jeremy, if I tell you that I didn’t develop this slow-acting poison, would you believe me?”

Jeremy would not have believed him if it was before.

Now, he answered without hesitation, “Yes.”

There was a glint in Adam’s eye when he got the answer, and gloom appeared on his handsome face.

“Do you know why I wanted to become a doctor?”

Jeremy pondered for a few seconds and said, “It involves your parents, doesn’t it?”

Adam was not surprised that Jeremy would have such speculation. “It seems that you’ve checked my background.”

“I’ve read up on you and Ryan,” Jeremy admitted generously.

Adam smiled faintly. He lowered his eyes slightly, and the reflection on his glasses made it hard to see his eyes and expression right now.

“From the moment I officially became a doctor and took the oath on the stand, I told myself that it was my mission in this life to heal the wounded and save the dying. However, then I realized that doctors aren’t gods and there’s nothing we can do when it comes to some difficult diseases.”

He paused and looked up with his black eyes.

“The pills I gave Eveline in the very beginning and the reagents I asked her to give you a while ago weren’t the so-called experiments. Those are products that have gone through rigorous screening tests and are up to standard.

“The so-called experiments are just for show.

“I think I have more respect for life than any of you. At least I won’t do what you and Eveline are doing, risking your lives to save each other.”

Adam’s words touched Jeremy deeply and gave him hope.

“In that case, am I going to survive it?”
