That sight shocked Jeremy to his core.
Suddenly, he recalled a memory of his savior, Dove.
Back then, Jeremy was heavily injured on the battlefield. Dove had placed him on a burlap sack and tied a rope to it. Then, she traveled a long distance while dragging him with all her might.
“Don’t give up on hope! We’ll definitely survive!”
After that, chaos erupted in the survivors’ camp. Jeremy was unable to find Dove. Instead, he found the rope drenched in blood. He wondered if her hands had healed by now.
Jeremy clenched his fists as he continued to recall the events of the past. At the same time, he felt quite tense.
Soon, the ambulance arrived at the hotel. The housekeeper was quickly whisked away.
Alyssa was still worried about the employee. So, she ordered Sean to follow the ambulance to the hospital.
“Thank goodness you took the right precautions, miss. Otherwise, the patient would have been in danger,” a paramedic praised.
“It was nothing. I’m glad she’s doing fine for now. Alyssa flashed a small smile at the paramedic.
By the time she returned to the lobby, the front desk manager had already gotten everything under control. The crowd was gone as well.
Alyssa glanced at the deep teeth marks imprinted on her right wrist. Blood was seeping out of the tiny wounds. She immediately headed toward the hotel’s infirmary. Her wrist was in pain.
“Allison.”
Alyssa’s heart skipped a beat. When she turned around, she noticed Jeremy stopping behind her. His expression was thunderous.
They were standing so close that they could feel their warm breaths hitting each other.
If one of them were to take another step, their bodies would have made contact.
Alyssa was dazed for a moment, but she quickly reacted by stepping backward.
Before she could do so, Jeremy grabbed her by the arm and pulled her toward him.
The next moment, Alyssa found herself bumping into Jeremy’s body. His muscles were surprisingly warm and hard.
For some reason, Alyssa’s heart started racing wildly when she felt Jeremy’s body.
At the same time, she couldn’t help but curse him ment*lly for having such taut muscles.
“We’re still in public, Jeremy. Please mind your manners.” Alyssa was slightly out of breath. She tried to wrench her wrist out of Jeremy’s grip but failed.
“Where were you during these past few days? Why did you vanish all of a sudden?” Jeremy gazed down at Alyssa. His grip on her wrist tightened.
“Hmph! It has nothing to do with you! You’re just a stranger to me!”
Alves raw sunoyed by Jeremy’s behavios He was as arrogant as ever I was taking care of puvate business. It’s normal for you to not know where I went.”

“Let go of me. Jeremy Leave this place right now

Frustration washed over Jeremy at that momETLE.
How dair his ex wife chase him out of the hotel’ Had she forgotten how she had done all she could to please him in the past?
Jeremy’s possessive side took over him immediately He wanted nothing more than to win this battle. At the same time, an unknown feeling started sprouting within him.
“Not even Jonah can stop me from taking you home!”
Alyssa’s gaze hardened immediately. She looked very distant all of a sudden.
“It seems that Ms. Gardner spoiled you a lot. You’re a lot more shameless than before.”
“Don’t drag other people into our problems” Jeremy snapped angrily.
“Stay away from me if you don’t want me to insult you! I want nothing to do with you, Mr. Walsh! You may contact me only when it’s time to finalize our legal divorce! Goodbye!”
Jeremy was used to Allison looking at him lovingly over the past three years. Her eyes tended to sparkle happily whenever she saw her. Now, her eyes held nothing but coldness and contempt. It made him feel awful.
“I won’t let you leave!”
Alyssa started laughing. “Am I supposed to stay just because you said so? What, do you think I’m your pet dog? Must I follow your every order?”
“There’s no need for you to say such harsh things. You know very well that’s not what I meant.” Jeremy frowned in displeasure.
“Harsh things? Haha! You really are dense, aren’t you? Can’t you tell I’m being sarcastic? Let me make it clear. I hate you, Jeremy Walsh. Don’t bother talking to me anymore.”
Alyssa’s eyes reddened. She tried to free her wrist from Jeremy’s grip.
But Jeremy was also a stubborn man. The more she struggled, the tighter his grip became. He didn’t care that he was hurting her.
Alyssa hissed softly in pain.
She clutched her right lower arm with her left hand. Sweat soon seeped out of her forehead.
Only then did Jeremy realize what he had done. He released her immediately.
Looking down at his palm, he noticed bloodstains on his hand. His eyes widened slightly at the sight.
It turned out that Jeremy was gripping Alyssa’s injured wrist. He was so eager to drag her out of the hotel that he had forgotten about it.
“I’ll take you to the infirmary right now.” Jeremy’s voice was deeper and scratchier than before. Even his expression was a lot gloomier.
“Leave this place right now, or I’m calling the police.” Alyssa backed away from Jeremy furiously.
“Allison-
“Get lost!” Alyssa roared furiously. Right now, her heart hurt as much as her wrist.
They had been married for three whole years, yet Jeremy always ignored her. He wanted nothing to do with her.
Now that they were divorced, Jeremy decided to pester her. Not only that, but he kept making physical contact with her. It seemed that he no longer minded being around her.
How ironic.
Jeremy was stunned upon hearing Alyssa’s scream. His handsome face soon became icy.
“How dare you demand me to leave! You were the one who wanted to marry me in the first place! Why didn’t you show this side in front of me when you were still my wife?”
“That’s because I loved you back then.” An enraged grin stretched across Alyssa’s face at that moment. Her eyes had already reddened from the anger.
Jeremy could feel a dull ache coming from his heart. Even his breathing was starting to become heavier.
“When I was still in love with you, I’d tolerate anything you did to me. Now that I no longer love you, I won’t be patient with you anymore.
“Did you really think you’d still receive the same treatment now that we’ve divorced? The old
Allison is gone, Jeremy. I don’t love you anymore. You’re nothing to me.”
Alyssa tilted her chin haughtily before turning on her heel. She wanted to leave.
“If it wasn’t for Grandpa, I wouldn’t look for you in the first place, Allison! Do you have any idea how much he misses you? He’s extremely anxious because he can’t even get in contact with you!”
Jeremy’s eyes reddened as well. He decided to hurt Alyssa’s feelings by mocking her.
“You claim to care about Grandpa, but look at what you did! You’re such a liar, Allison! Did you think. you could toy with his feelings just because he’s old and senile?”
Allison’s breath was lodged in her throat at that moment. She clenched her fists as well.
Newton would forever be the connection that tied her to Jeremy. She could never give him up.
Alyssa was a woman who cared about her loved ones. She was willing to do anything just to carry out her promises.
