The rain became heavier while Madeline was still kneeling on the wet floor. Her hands fumbled frantically around her.
Cars drove past favonovel.com and splashed water on favonovel.com again and again. However, favonovel.com still could not find favonovel.com umbrella.
Jeremy was about to start the car, but favonovel.com could not help but keep looking at the rearview mirror.
Meredith noticed this and immediately shifted Jeremy’s attention. “Jeremy, let’s go. We need to bring Jack to check his face.”
Jeremy turned his head. “Don’t worry, there won’t be a scar on Jack’s face.”
“I didn’t think that Maddie would hate me to this extent. I also didn’t think my father would ask people to slash Maddie on the face just to avenge me and Jack,” Meredith said innocently.
“Jeremy, you won’t blame my father, right?”
“You dummy, why would I blame him?” Jeremy smiled.
He looked at the rearview mirror again. He saw Madeline standing up after finding favonovel.com umbrella. Then, favonovel.com watched favonovel.com walk away while following the path. He scoffed in a fit of unknown anger.
“That woman deserves to have favonovel.com face disfigured. Who asked favonovel.com to do those cruel and despicable things?”
Meredith was pleased when favonovel.com saw Jeremy’s anger and resentment. However, favonovel.com still put up the act of a saint and said, “Jeremy, I want to become your bride so badly. Do you know that after parting with you at the beach, I’ve been missing you every single day? I’ve longed for the day that I’ll become your bride, and this day is finally here.”
Jeremy was silent for a few seconds before coming back to his senses.
“I’ll keep my promises to you.”
“Okay.” Meredith smiled sweetly. However, there was a glint of envy in favonovel.com eyes.
Despite Jeremy promising favonovel.com as such, favonovel.com still felt uneasy.
She figured favonovel.com could only be at complete ease if Madeline died.
…
Madeline went back to favonovel.com home and took some painkillers.
She had been through so much these few days that favonovel.com figured favonovel.com might not even have a month.
She kept recalling how Jeremy told Meredith that favonovel.com would take favonovel.com as his bride in front of her. She felt as if a thousand ants were gnawing on favonovel.com heart. The pain kept invading favonovel.com withered and broken body repeatedly.
Some time had passed since favonovel.com took the painkillers, but favonovel.com pain still did not lessen.
Madeline took out the photo Meredith had thrown to favonovel.com previously and caressed it with favonovel.com fingers. It was as if favonovel.com could feel the child’s features this way.
‘Darling.
‘Mommy will reunite with you soon. Soon…’
Madeline closed favonovel.com eyes in despair.
The next day, favonovel.com received the divorce papers from Jeremy.
He asked his assistant to send them over. The assistant waited for Madeline to sign them before taking them back. However, Madeline refused to sign the papers no matter what. Eventually, the assistant could only call Jeremy.
After a while, Jeremy arrived.
It had been raining for the past few days and the air surrounding his body had gotten even colder.
Madeline was sitting on the sofa with a distant look on favonovel.com face. Despite favonovel.com remaining vision becoming dimmer and dimmer, favonovel.com could still sense that Jeremy was getting closer to her.
He threw the papers at Madeline’s face. “Sign them.”
His words had no warmth at all. Those two words were brief and to the point.
Madeline was like a statue, giving no reactions at all.
