Chapter 1226
When Madeline woke up the next day, she saw Ryan by the side of her bed.
She looked cautiously at the scheming man and did not say anything.
On the other hand, Ryan looked straight at Madeline with a small smile on his lips.
“You bled a lot. I brought some soup to replenish your energy for you. You should drink it after you’ve cleaned up.”
Madeline looked at the soup on the nightstand and headed to the toilet.
“Eveline, Jeremy hurt you so badly back then. Why are you still in love with him?” Ryan’s curious voice sounded from outside the toilet.
Madeline did not answer her. She only opened the door after she was done washing up.
Ryan was standing at the door. At this moment, he looked gentle and cultivated. One would not relate him to a cold-blooded murderer.
Madeline looked into Ryan’s eyes. “Do you need a reason to love someone?” she asked him back and sat down on the bed.
Ryan walked over to open the thermos for Madeline. Then, he poured some of the soup out and handed it to Madeline.
He looked at the bandages on Madeline’s arm and took the bowl back.
“Let me feed you,” Ryan said, scooping up the soup with a spoon before putting it in front of Madeline’s lips.
“…” Madeline turned her face in rejection. “I can drink it myself.”
“Do you not want the anti-toxoid reagent?” Ryan asked slowly. There was a hint of threat in his voice.
Madeline had no choice but to let him feed her the soup.
As she was drinking the soup, Madeline saw a shadow of a person wandering outside the door from the corners of her eyes. She lifted her head and saw a few journalists taking pictures outside the room.
The media was able to get the news of her being hospitalized so quickly. Madeline guessed that Ryan was the one who let out the news.
“Didn’t you want to pretend to cut all ties with Jeremy and let them think you’re with me? I’m just fulfilling your wishes like this,” Ryan said nonchalantly, continuing to feed Madeline the soup considerately.
