Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 714

Chapter 714

“Really?” Jackson looked like he was in disbelief. “Daddy, let me look at your wound so that I can feel reassured.”

Jeremy did not want to scare the little guy with his bloody wound, but he was extremely stubborn.

He brought the little guy to the room without a choice. Madeline also followed behind them while Karen moved out Madeline’s way like she was avoiding her. She was also looking at Madeline like she had something to say to her.

Madeline did not think that Karen was acting weird and only smiled.

Jeremy took off his sweater in the room, revealing his fair torso. There was blood seeping out from his bandaged wound.

Jackson blew on it while feeling heartbroken. “Daddy, you’re bleeding. Daddy, you must be hurting a lot, right?”

“Maybe I pressed on it when I was sleeping.” Jeremy had not noticed the bleeding. Then, he caressed the little guy’s head. “I’m not in pain, so don’t worry about me, Jack.”

After he said that, he saw Madeline walking over with a first aid kit and was surprised. She looked like she was going to change his dressing for him.

Jeremy was feeling overwhelmed with his heart flowing with joy.

Madeline took out the alcohol swabs and bandages without saying a word. Then, she removed the bandage on Jeremy’s body.

Madeline was then greeted by the horrifyingly bloody wound.

She was slightly taken aback. If Jeremy had hesitated for even a slight moment at that crucial time, she would be the one who got stabbed.

He was willing to risk his life for her.

The little guy could not bring himself to look at the wound, so he turned his head and looked at the wedding album on the bed. Then, he started flipping through it with interest.

Jeremy noticed that Madeline was spacing out, so he called out to her softly, “Linnie, is it horrifying? Did my wound scare you?”

Madeline came back to her senses and took care of Jeremy’s wound with the alcohol swab. “This is nothing. I was disfigured back then and my wound was much worse than yours.”

Hiss.

Jeremy frowned.

His wound did not hurt, but he was reminded of the two horrifying scars on her face back then when she said that to him.

He lowered his gaze as his heart broke into pieces and his eyes were filled with remorse.

“I’m sorry, Linnie.”

“You’ve apologized enough and I’m sick of hearing them.” Madeline’s tone was cold. It seemed as if she did not want to talk to him anymore.
