After noticing the intense worry in Madeline’s eyes, Jeremy squeezed her hand and comforted her softly.
“Linnie, we have overcome so many difficulties. I believe that this time, we’ll also be able to avert disaster. Trust me.“
He gave a firm promise and then asked nervously.
“By the way, how’s Lily? Carter said he told you the plan to treat Lily. He didn’t lie to me, did he?“
When she heard this, Madeline felt a pang of pain in her heart again.
“So, you listened to Carter and let him manipulate you and trap you here for the sake of our daughter?“
Madeline asked, her heart feeling getting heavier and heavier.
“Don’t you know what kind of person Carter is? He doesn’t deserve any of your trust.“
Upon hearing this, Jeremy’s expression changed anxiously.
“So, Carter didn’t tell you how to treat Lily? Lily still has rashes all over?“
It was clear that Jeremy was angry and anxious. On the one hand, he was worried about his baby girl, while on the other hand, he was angry that he had been fooled by Carter.
When she saw Jeremy in this state, Madeline quickly explained, “Don’t worry, Jeremy, Lily’s situation has improved.“
“Really?“ Jeremy did not quite believe it, but when he saw Madeline, he nodded with certainty.
“Really, “ Madeline emphasized. “But it has nothing to do with Carter. He just told me why this is happening, and Shirley is the only one with the solution.“
“Shirley?“
