Chapter 1367
What did she tell him?
Madeline recalled what happened in the ICU just now.
Madeline showed a rare mischievous smile after spotting the curiosity in Jeremy’s charming eyes.
“Jeremy, are you dying to know what I said to Ryan?”
Jeremy nodded and sounded like he was jealous when he spoke next, “I want to know how my wife encouraged that man who brought trouble to himself.”
Madeline could sense the jealousy in Jeremy’s tone. She curled the corners of her lips and smiled. Then, she said seriously, “That night at the firework viewing platform, Ryan told me something before he got shot and collapsed.
“He told me he was sorry.”
After Jeremy heard this, he could slowly guess what Madeline said to Ryan in the ICU.
“That day, he kidnapped me in the bookstore. He told me that he’d take me to you, so that’s why I went with him. Back then, I was seriously muddle-headed and I believed everything he said like an idiot. Then, he said as long as I promised his final request, he’d take me back to you.”
“What did he ask for?”
“I didn’t understand back then, but now I do.” Madeline paused and looked into Jeremy’s inquisitive eyes. “I think he only wanted to spend some time alone with me because he knew he didn’t have much time. He had no choice apart from using this barbaric method.
“He also told me that he didn’t expect to force me into this state. He only hoped that I could stay by his side obediently.”
Jeremy finally understood. However, indignation also rose in his eyes.
“Linnie, I won’t forgive him for what he did to you even if he has apologized.” Jeremy still had rage in his heart that he could not get rid of.
