Chapter 909
Madeline had just regained consciousness. The last thing she wanted to see as soon as she opened her eyes was Jeremy and Lana talking in front of the door of the ward.
The last thing she expected was for Lana to kiss Jeremy so suddenly with a bright smile.
Madeline suddenly clenched her fists and sat up. She was about to get off the bed when she felt a throbbing pain in her abdomen. She reflexively held her belly.
Lana knew that her attempt this time would not succeed, and indeed, she was pushed aside harshly by Jeremy once again.
However, their position and actions just now were enough to make Madeline think that Lana kissed Jeremy.
Jeremy still wanted to ask Lana to get the medicine, but when he heard the noise in the ward and looked back, he found that Madeline was already awake.
“Get out of here, don’t be an eyesore in front of my wife.”
He sent Lana away in a cold voice and immediately pushed the door to enter. Seeing Madeline frowning and holding her belly, he felt even more worried.
“Linnie, you fainted at home just now. How are you now? Is your stomach still uncomfortable?” Jeremy went to hold Madeline’s hand, but she avoided his hand decisively.
Jeremy knew that Madeline was under the influence of drugs, causing her to misunderstand him. He wanted to explain to her clearly, but what was he going to say?
If he said that Adam Brown was treating Madeline as a guinea pig and that all she saw was just her own hallucinations, her mood would only worsen.
“I don’t want to see you right now, get out.” Madeline drove him away and lay back on the bed.
Jeremy did not want to upset Madeline at this time, so he walked out of the ward to stand guard.
He made a call to Adam. The call went through, but no one picked up.
He made another call to Daniel. Daniel and Adam’s relationship was considered good, but when asked about Adam’s whereabouts, Daniel also knew nothing.
Jeremy hung up the phone without telling Daniel about Madeline’s situation.
On the way, Jeremy urged the kids not to tell their grandparents about their mother’s illness. The two siblings nodded obediently.
Jeremy bought a bouquet of flowers. He entered the hospital while carrying Lillian and holding Jackson with one hand.
“Handsome Mister, can we still go out and play with Mommy today?” Lillian asked while blinking her big glassy eyes.
Jeremy was a little disappointed. “Lillian, I’m your father. Call me ‘Daddy’.”
Lillian smiled innocently, but her face was serious. “You’re Handsome Mister. Lillian’s dad is not here.”
The meaning was clear. Lillian still regarded Felipe as her biological father.
Jeremy could only be disappointed in silence as he could not blame the little bun.
Just as he arrived at the inpatient department with his two children, the nurse ran over and told him, “Your wife was just discharged from the hospital. She was picked up by a man.”
