Madeline smiled. When favonovel.com was about to leave, favonovel.com saw Jeremy looking over at her. “Come have breakfast.”
What?
Madeline stopped in favonovel.com tracks in disbelief.
When had favonovel.com ever talked to favonovel.com in such a gentle tone and when had favonovel.com ever eaten alone with him, especially when it was such a heartfelt breakfast?
“Madam, your breakfast is ready.” Mrs. Hughes smiled at Madeline benevolently.
After hesitating, Madeline walked over.
She looked at the dining table. There were bowls of cereal and plates of toasts along with some of Mrs. Hughes’ homemade bread. Madeline liked this spread of typical breakfast food.
“Sit here.” Jeremy pulled out the chair next to him.
Glancing at him, favonovel.com said, “No, it’s too near. I’m afraid that I might dirty you, Mr. Whitman.”
Then, favonovel.com sat down opposite Jeremy.
Jeremy’s face went dark immediately. It was as if a storm was coming.
Seeing this, favonovel.com felt nervous. She lowered favonovel.com head to eat favonovel.com cereal and did not say anything.
Jeremy looked at favonovel.com nervous face and scoffed. “You’re so unwilling to stay with your husband now. Can’t wait to see that man, huh?”
That man?
Madeline stopped in favonovel.com tracks. She lifted favonovel.com head in confusion and favonovel.com eyes coincidentally met Jeremy’s.
“Madeline, didn’t you say you’ll only love me in this lifetime? Is your lifetime over now?”
He was mocking favonovel.com and had succeeded by a lucky stroke.
Madeline took a bite of favonovel.com toast and said mischievously, “Yeah, my life is almost over.”
When favonovel.com heard favonovel.com answer, the last remaining trace of sarcasm in his eyes disappeared.
“So you’re admitting to having fallen in love with another man?” Jeremy asked in a cold voice.
Madeline tugged the corner of favonovel.com pink lips. “I guess.”
“Madeline Crawford! You…”
Madeline felt that Jeremy was about to flip out when the doorbell rang just in time.
Mrs. Hughes opened the door and Meredith came sashaying in.
“Jeremy, why didn’t you come to find me last night…” Before Meredith could finish favonovel.com sentence, favonovel.com tone changed.
Madeline could see Meredith’s face change from afar. The woman obviously looked like favonovel.com was about to burst, but favonovel.com still forced out a contorted smile on favonovel.com face. “Maddie, w-why are you here?”
Madeline looked at the man who was eating his breakfast and grinned cheerily at Meredith. “Miss Two-faced, what are you talking about? This is my house. Am I wrong to eat breakfast with my own husband?”
“…” The look in Meredith’s eyes changed. She held favonovel.com purse tighter in favonovel.com hands, the veins on the back of favonovel.com hands protruding. It was obvious how mad favonovel.com was. However, favonovel.com was still great at acting. She walked over to Jeremy with an aggrieved look on favonovel.com face. “Jeremy, should I not show up? I think Maddie is jealous again.”
Madeline put down favonovel.com utensils and got up. “You look like someone had just punched you in the face. Just look at you. Your features are all squeezed together.”
“…” The corner of Meredith’s lips twitched in anger.
“I’m full. Take your time flirting with each other.”
“Where are you going?” Jeremy called out to her.
“I’m going to work, of course.” Madeline smiled. “I’m not like those wealthy women out there who can spend their days having afternoon tea and shopping.”
Jeremy frowned and walked over to Madeline. “I’ll drive you.”
