Chapter 104
The bumpy road made the wound on Madelyn’s abdomen reopen.
She screamed internally, ‘It hurts!’
Madelyn tried her best to endure the pain and prevent herself from fainting. She felt disoriented, hervision becoming increasingly blurry. Madelyn clenched her teeth and just remained silent, not wantingto cause Zach any more trouble.
Suddenly, her body leaned forward. Zach, who was resting with his eyes closed, instantly opened hiseyes. He quickly caught her with his hand.
As he touched her skin, he noticed how hot her body felt, and pulled her closer toward him.
Zach frowned, “How much longer until we arrive at the hospital?”
“This road was just repaired, so it’s a little congested now. It’ll take at least an hour.”
Jadie turned her head and wailed in a terrified voice, “Oh my god. Zach, Madelyn has bled so much.”
Zach removed Madelyn’s blazer. The light-colored shirt inside was stained with blood.
He thought, ‘She just kept quiet about this?’
“Kevin, stop by the roadside and get the medical kit now.”
After Kevin parked the car, he swiftly fetched the medical kit from the trunk, which contained. commonmedical supplies.
Zach lifted the hem of Madelyn’s shirt. He carefully removed the dirty gauze on her abdomen, tossing itaside and stopping the bleeding. By the time the wound had been stabilized, Madelyn was alreadycompletely unconscious.
At this rate, she would die from hypovolemic shock.
Jadie grabbed the hem of her skirt tightly as she looked at the rearview mirror. She lowered her head,and her eyes were filled with an indescribable emotion.
After the road was cleared, they arrived at the SereneCare Hospital within forty minutes.
Madelyn was brought to the operating theater. Kevin stayed at the hospital while Zach sent Jadie backhome, as he also had to go take some documents before going for the company meeting.
When Zach came out of the washroom in the study after showering, Jadie was standing outside thedoor. He was drying his hair with a towel, but it was still dripping wet.
He was wearing his usual black shirt and trousers, exuding a cold, intimidating aura. The room
was dimly lit, so his expression could not be clearly seen.novelbin
“What’s the matter?” he asked.
Jadie recalled Zach beating up those hooligans earlier. It was the first time she had ever seen him lookso terrifying.
For some reason, she suddenly felt insecure around Zach. She was afraid that he would leave her justlike that.
Jadie stepped forward and hugged Zach around his waist. “Zach…”
Zach stopped drying his hair. His gaze was deep as he hugged her back. “Are you frightened?” heasked.
Jadie nodded. She hugged him tighter as she said in a nasally voice, “Yes.”
Zach caressed her back and assured her, “I’ll be more considerate next time.”
Jadie let go of him before she lifted her head to plead with him, “Zach, can you not be like thatanymore?”
He stroked her hair. His voice became warmer as he said, “Okay.”
Zach knew why she was scared.
He pondered, ‘I was acting impulsively when I beat up those hooligans just now.
Maybe Madelyn’s matter really has affected my judgment.’
That scene kept replaying in his mind.
