Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

Chapter 148

The nurse said, handing the notice of critical illness over.

The light piece of paper landed in Jeremy’s hand, but it felt like a heavy rock weighing down on him.

The invisible pressure made him extremely uncomfortable.

Notice of critical illness…

Was she about to leave this earth and out of his sight?

He would not allow that!

“Jeremy, now that it has come to this, you should sign the notice and let Maddie go peacefully.”

Meredith came forward and advised him, grabbing his arm.

However, Jeremy pushed her away and crumpled the notice of critical illness into a ball. His eyes were

red. “What notice of critical illness? She’s always been fine. How can she be in critical condition all of a

sudden? You have to save her. If anything happens to her, don’t think you’ll be able to run this hospital

anymore!”

The nurse started trembling when she saw Jeremy’s terrifying expression. She turned around and ran

back inside nervously.

After a while, a few experts walked their way and rushed into the operating theatre.

Jeremy sat in the chair with his head in his hands. His brows were knitted together tightly.

How was this possible?

Why was he so worried? Why was he so scared and so concerned about Madeline?

He was going crazy from this anxiousness that he had never felt before!

He wanted to know Madeline’s condition.

After his strong and determined demands, the doctors were left with no choice. They could only let him

go in.

Jeremy had to change into personal protective equipment and sanitize his entire body before he was

allowed into the operating theatre.

The moment he walked in, he was still imagining that this was just an act put on by Madeline and that

she was actually fine. However, what he saw horrified and suffocated him.

He could only see Madeline’s face that was so pale with no color in it at all.

This was the first time he looked at Madeline’s face so seriously. Despite the glaring scars on her face,

he still thought that she looked stunning and perfect.

It would be great if she would open her eyes and look at him now. Her eyes were the most beautiful

part of her.

However, it was all his imagination. Madeline was not moving and her entire body was covered in tubes

to maintain her body that was on the brink of death.

Jeremy stood at one side in a daze. He was feeling extremely uneasy with the helplessness he was

feeling right now.

His brain was occupied with the scenes of the first day Madeline went to university. She was like a

frolicking deer that was running up and down doing the paperwork for admission. In the end, she had

accidentally run into him. She lifted her head and said to him while blushing furiously, “I’m so sorry.”

Her voice sounded so sweet—as sweet as the spring water from the mountains.

Her face was so beautiful, looking youthful and energetic too. Her eyes were also shining brightly like

stars in the sky.

Then, they got married. She was so stunning at their wedding. When she smiled, she had deep

dimples on her face.

However, now…

Jeremy listened to all kinds of noises coming from the machines. Finally, he could not take this kind of NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

torment anymore.

He was scared.

He ran away from the operating theater in fear.

This was the first time he was feeling such debilitating pain that he could not endure it any longer, and it

was because he was afraid that Madeline would die.
