Chapter 1355
Jeremy instantly felt Madeline awakening.
However, when he lowered his head, he saw that Madeline’s eyes were full of panic and confusion.
She looked at the ceiling somewhat blanky, and after a few seconds, Madeline seemed to realize that there was someone next to her.
When she saw Jeremy who was extremely close to her, she grabbed the blanket and leaped away immediately. “Get away from me!”
Jeremy’s heart sank. At that moment, he felt as if he had fallen into the bottom of a cold lake.
Sure enough, what he was worried about had happened.
“Linnie, I’m Jeremy,” Jeremy explained.
However, Madeline seemed to be ignoring him. She shrank to the corner of the bed with a panicked expression. Her big, smart, and beautiful eyes were looking ahead in confusion. They were out of focus.
“Linnie, what’s wrong with you, Linnie? I’m Jeremy. Don’t be afraid.” Jeremy slowly approached while coaxing patiently and tenderly. “Don’t be afraid, Linnie. It’s over. Ryan won’t have any more opportunities to control and hurt you.”
“Ryan?”
Madeline seemed to be reacting to this name. She looked forward blankly and muttered to herself like a child.
“Ryan said he would take me to find Jeremy. He also said that as long as I’m obedient, he’ll let my parents go and personally send me back to Jeremy. However, Jeremy came to me and I wanted to go with Jeremy, but he wouldn’t let me go. And then…”
As Madeline was talking, her face turned paler. In her head, there was a scene of Ryan getting shot and falling to the ground in front of her.
The blood that came out from Ryan’s wound seemed to be burning hot on her cheeks.
She really did not want to think about it anymore, but she just could not get rid of that scene in her mind.
“Ah!”
Madeline suddenly raised her hand and held her head in pain.
