Chapter 605
Madeline rolled her eyes and said coldly, “Let go of me or I’ll leave right this minute.”
Jeremy hurriedly let go of his grip on her.
Madeline kept quiet and took out the disinfectant and wound dressing from the first aid kit. She then unbuttoned Jeremy’s shirt.
His well-defined chest presented itself to her. Unlike other men who were more tanned, Jeremy was fair.
This also created a stark contrast between his skin and the blood on his chest, making it look more glaring.
Although the cut was not deep, it was still of concern. Madeline used the disinfectant-soaked cotton to wipe off the blood on his wound. Then, he picked up the sterile gauze dressing and pressed it onto the wound. Lastly, she secured it with sticky tape.
Jeremy kept quiet and just stared at Madeline with a blank expression.
She was very close in proximity. Her gentle and beautiful face was deeply ingrained through the windows of his soul—his eyes.
Her slender eyebrows, her soft lips, and her dainty nose were all perfect.
Jeremy’s gaze became softer and softer. He involuntarily lowered his head slightly as he greedily sniffed the fragrance from her hair.
He thought to himself, ‘How could I ever have hurt such a beautiful woman?’
He suddenly felt that he was a despicable man. How could he ask for Madeline’s forgiveness, and how was she ever going to forgive such an evil man such as himself?
“Linnie…”
“If you don’t want the wound to be infected, pay attention to it.” Madeline interrupted Jeremy with an indifferent tone, then got up after packing the first aid kit.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Jeremy did not force her to stay.
He did not want to wrong her again.
