Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 977

Chapter 977

The moment Madeline jumped out of the car, Jeremy’s mind went blank.

An indescribable fear and horror crept into his throat.

“Linnie!”

As he reached out his hand reflexively to grab onto Madeline, his body also pounced toward the direction Madeline jumped in.

Due to the inertia and force of impact, Jeremy held Madeline as they rolled a few times on the road before stopping.

Then, the car crashed into the divider island with a loud crash. The tires of the car were rubbing against the road furiously.

However, Jeremy did not care about the car nor his injuries and carried the unconscious woman in his arms.

“Linnie! Linnie!”

He supported her head and patted her cheek.

“Linnie, don’t fall asleep.”

His voice was trembling, and he did not understand why he was so afraid right now.

It was only when he felt the stickiness behind Madeline’s head that he realized that his hands were covered in blood.

His heart plunged violently.

He then carried the pale Madeline and stopped a car by the side of the road. Then, they drove to the hospital as fast as they could.

He waited outside the operating theatre, staying there the entire time the operation was going on.

When the doctor came out and told him that Madeline had gotten out of the critical stage, he felt slightly relieved.

He went to look at her in the room. When he saw her serene face, he could not stop himself from getting close to her.

His fingers touched her eyebrows, and his eyes softened.

At this moment, he felt the changes in his heartbeat.

He had indeed fallen for this woman.

He was already touched by her the first time he got the urge to kiss her.

However, after he calmed down, he started feeling suspicious when he remembered the nervousness and horror he felt just now.

“Linnie, Linnie…” he murmured, feeling his heart beating erratically.

He spaced out for quite a while before opening the contacts list on Madeline’s phone groggily.

He saw Ava’s name and clicked on it subconsciously. After that, he sent her a message telling her that Madeline was in the hospital due to an accident.

After he did that, he placed the phone next to Madeline’s pillow.

Jeremy kept watch in front of the door of the ward. He only turned around when he saw a familiar figure running out of the elevator from afar.

Ava thought she saw Jeremy walk past. However, when she got closer, he was gone.

She walked into the room and saw bandages around Madeline’s head while she was unconscious with no colors on her face. She quickly ran over.

“Maddie.”

Ava held Madeline’s icy hand. She felt extremely heartbroken and confused. “What happened?”

Madeline slept for the entire night. When she woke up, everything in front of her was pitch-black.

“Maddie, you’re awake.”
