Chapter 610
Not long after Felipe brought Madeline onto the boat, she woke up.
She opened her feeble eyes and saw Felipe’s handsome face that was filled with concern and worry.
“Eveline. Eveline, are you awake?” he asked softly.
Madeline was not fully awake yet. She rolled her eyes and looked around as if she was looking for something in her confusion
“Eveline?”
“Felipe?” Madeline looked at the man holding her questioningly. “Why is it you?”
“Dummy, who else would it be?” He stroked her cheek. “I knew you were taken away by Jeremy, so I‘ve been looking for you. When I had just taken a boat to the shore, I saw you accidentally falling into the water.”
Listening to him, Madeline slowly recalled what happened before she passed out.
She saw Jeremy turn and walk away, and as he walked farther and farther, for some reason, she was in a daze. The bookmark she was holding had fallen out of her hand as well.
She was anxious to retrieve the leaf bookmark, but it had fallen into the sea accidentally.
“Thank goodness, you’re okay. Do you know how scary it was just now? I was really afraid that just like that, you wouldn’t wake up anymore.”
Madeline froze for a few seconds before blinking her tired eyes. “You rescued me? Jeremy—”
“He was gone when you had the accident.”
With this answer, Madeline felt like her heart had fallen to the bottom of the sea again.
At the time, she had vaguely felt Jeremy fishing her up from the sea, holding her on the shore while calling her name anxiously.
It turned out that it was an illusion.
He was gone.
He was indeed gone.
