Chapter 979
When Madeline felt herself being carried, she was shocked. However, in the next second, she pushed him away.
“Heh, Linnie? What are you playing at, Mr. Zimmerman?” Madeline scoffed. “Are you here to watch me make a fool of myself because you know I’m blind?”
She laughed and asked. Even though she could not see, she was standing tall and did not cower nor show a hint of fear.
“Lana, listen, even if I’m blind, I won’t allow you to have your way with me. I cried so much these days because of you, and I’ll make you pay double for it!”
Looking at the weak yet tough woman in front of him, Jeremy suppressed the pain in his heart and slowly walked in front of her.
“Linnie, I remember.”
When he said this, his gentle and deep voice traveled into Madeline’s ears softly.
It felt as if everything was frozen in time as the ward fell silent.
Madeline was stumped. Then, she heard the familiar voice repeating those words.
“Linnie, I remember everything.”
Madeline’s clear eyes that had lost their vision were filled with tears unbeknownst to her.
After a while, she chuckled.
“Really? You finally remember…” Madeline said flatly.
“You should go. We can’t go back to the way we were. We’re going to be enemies if we are to meet again.” She turned around slowly.
Jeremy walked up to her and grabbed her hand. Then, he knelt in front of her.
“Linnie. Linnie, I’m so sorry.” He apologized, but Madeline was untouched.
“You don’t have to say you’re sorry anymore. Even if you apologize to me for a year, two years, or even ten years, I will never forgive you for as long as I live.”
Madeline clenched her fists as her entire body shook.
