Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Chapter 1800

Jeremy looked at the clock. While waiting for Fabian's arrival, Jeremy observed Madeline. He noticed Madeline gradually lay on the bed on her side, half curling her body with her back facing him. Jeremy, noticing Madeline's discomfort, truly wanted to rush in, but was afraid he might set her off again.

Besides, Evan came in earlier to notify him that Fabian would be arriving soon.

In no time, Fabian indeed arrived.

With a cool expression, Fabian briefly met Jeremy's eyes, then lifted his hand and handed the anti- toxoid test reagent to Jeremy.

"Take it."

Jeremy felt relieved the moment he saw the anti- toxoid test reagent.

Although it would not be able to completely eliminate the poison in Madeline's body, at the very least, it could help stabilize her condition.

Jeremy took it, then looked at Fabian and conveyed his gratitude, "Thanks."

Fabian did not speak. It was Evan who kindly asked, "Do you need my help?"

"Mr. Whitman is already very used to carrying out injection procedures. He doesn't need your help," Fabian answered on Jeremy's behalf.

Evan could not make out the implicit meaning behind Fabian's words, but Fabian and Jeremy understood.

Without another word, Jeremy pushed open the door of the ward, holding the anti-toxoid test reagent, and with a smile on his stunning face, he walked to the side of the bed. "Linnie, you'll recover soon..."

As his voice fell, Jeremy was shocked when he saw Madeline's expression.

"Linnie!"

Jeremy anxiously held Madeline's shoulders, trying to support her into sitting.

He noticed that Madeline's face was pale, her forehead was drenched with cold sweat, and her body was trembling vigorously.

However, despite her discomfort, she was still conscious, and she rejected Jeremy from nearing her.

"Jeremy, I've said... that I don't... I don't want to see you. Go away. The further the better..."

Madeline spoke with a weak, shaky, yet stubborn voice.

"I hate you. I really hate you..."

Jeremy's heart ached when he saw her rejecting him with such a cold gaze.

Despite the anxiety burning within him, he still patiently and gently comforted Madeline's emotions.

"Linnie, stop rejecting me. You're just sick. I'll now give you an injection. You'll get well soon."

"Injection?"

Madeline frowned. Through her blurry vision, she saw Jeremy taking out a transparent vial of anti- toxoid test reagent and pierced it with a syringe, sucking out the transparent liquid from the vial. Madeline's eyes suddenly flashed, and she used all her strength to move backward. "What are you trying to do, Jeremy?"

Jeremy knew Madeline was scared, so he immediately explained, "Don't be afraid, Linnie. Once you've taken the injection, you'll no longer be in so much suffering."

"No, you're lying to me."

Madeline gently shook her head; despair surfaced in her eyes.

"It must be Meredith. Meredith asked you to come here."

Madeline, suspicious of Jeremy's kindness, summoned all her strength to shift her pained body and got off the bed.

"Linnie!" Jeremy hurriedly chased after her.

Once the anti-toxoid test reagent was unsealed, it must be used within five minutes, otherwise, it would lose its effectiveness.

Jeremy dared not waste any time, but Madeline's struggle and attempt to escape made him nervous.

Madeline, who kept thinking that Jeremy, under Meredith's instruction, was here to torture her, staggered toward the door.

She wanted to open the door and escape, but the door was pushed open from the outside.

Fabian's towering body blocked her path.
