Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 693

Chapter 693

Madeline groaned in pain and frowned. It was followed by a cooling sensation on her calf.

Jeremy got down to his knees before her and pulled up her trousers only to find an enormous bruise on her calf.

Heartbroken, he frowned. “I’ll carry you, Linnie.”

“Thanks for your kindness, Mr. Whitman, but I don’t need you to do so.” Madeline rejected his offer. Bearing with the pain, she continued waddling ahead.

Jeremy knew she was mad at his previous actions, but he could not bear to see her torturing her body.

He quickly caught up to her, grabbed her waist, and hoisted her up.

Madeline fumbled, and when she lifted her gaze, all she saw was the side of Jeremy’s stony face.

“Put me down.” Madeline rejected in an indifferent tone. After a few attempts of struggling which failed, she grabbed onto his collar. “Jeremy, I’ve made myself very clear back at Glendale University. I don’t need your concern and you no longer need to treat me well.”

Jeremy looked at her with a passionate stare. “Linnie, I know you’re mad at me. You can continue being mad or even hate me, but please don’t harm your body just because of this.”

Madeline smirked. “Don’t you find it rather hilarious that today, you’re telling me not to harm my body?”

Jeremy grabbed her even tighter when he heard her comment.

He was staring at Madeline before him as though he was being brutally tortured himself.

“I’m sorry.”

He apologized sincerely but still continued carrying her and walking further ahead.

“I’ll never act all noble and hand you over to another guy. Linnie, you have no idea how much I desire for you to give me another chance to take care of you.” He suddenly blurted such a comment as if he was making a promise to her.

Madeline was dumbfounded. Silence befell them, and she sensed that Jeremy had picked up the pace.
