Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1286

Chapter 1286

Ryan left it at that and turned to leave.

He had lured Jeremy out so that he could warn and take his frustration out on him.

He had just taken two steps when Jeremy’s voice rang out from behind him.

“Where’s my wife, Ryan?”

Ryan halted and turned to look at Jeremy’s color-drained expression. His smile deepened at the sight.

“She’s my legal wife. Where else would she stay but at my home? Relax, with my parents-in-law watching over her, she’ll be alright.”

Parents-in-law?

Jeremy knew that Ryan was referring to Eloise and Sean.

However, why would they be his parents-in-law?

Linnie would always be his wife only.

Ryan’s mood brightened even more as he read the anger in Jeremy’s eyes.

“I’ve got to thank you for that, Jeremy. Thank you for handing over your parents-in-law to me.”

Jeremy clenched his fists and knitted his brows in anger. “Ryan Jones—”

“How about you save that breath to call an ambulance, hmm? Before you die of blood loss here with how much of your strength you’re wasting. It’d be a shame if my opponent dies so early.”

Ryan interrupted before turning back around with a victorious smile.

Jeremy’s vision began to blur, and he fell onto one knee, his body no longer had the strength to hold him up.

Fresh blood streamed freely from his shoulder, dyeing his wedding ring red.

“Linnie…”

‘It must hurt for you too, doesn’t it, Linnie?

‘I want to hold and comfort you. I want to protect you and keep you safe and warm.’

Jeremy sighed quietly, unable to move on from his worries about how Madeline was doing.

He had no idea if Ryan would hurt Madeline or not.

While he stayed deep in thought, a doctor entered the room.

The doctor let out a sigh of relief after seeing that Jeremy had woken up. “Thank goodness a professional did first aid on you, or it would’ve been too late by the time you got to the hospital.”

Jeremy then remembered the blurry figure that appeared before he lost consciousness.

“Who sent me to the hospital, doctor? Are they still here?”

“He already left, but he left a note for you.” The doctor then handed Jeremy a slip of paper.
