There was a hint of misery in Jeremy’s slightly intoxicated face. “It’s her.”
After staying silent for some time, Madeline got an answer from him.
It was her.
The person favonovel.com loved the most was Meredith.
Madeline’s grip on the wine glass tightened slowly.
The fire of rage in favonovel.com heart started burning brightly, but it was unable to destroy the unwillingness and bitterness in favonovel.com heart.
“Linnie, I’ll stay with you forever. I will protect you forever. I’ll take you as my bride…”
The little boy’s promise was like the autumn breeze outside the window, caressing favonovel.com ear before drifting away.
Madeline held the wine glass and downed the contents inside it.
She felt as if a million needles were piercing favonovel.com heart. They were so light yet they hurt so bad.
She was feeling sad for favonovel.com past self. She was so innocent for believing his promise to marry her. She ended up waiting for favonovel.com to reunite with favonovel.com like a fool. However, in the end, all favonovel.com got was this man’s merciless torture.
Madeline looked at the melancholic man in front of favonovel.com with an icy gaze. There was hatred in favonovel.com eyes.
‘Jeremy, I thought you were just cruel and could never be satisfied with what you had. However, the truth is that you were never serious about me.
‘You keep going on and on about Linnie, but that’s just a hypocritical show of affection.
‘Meredith Crawford.
‘You love her, right?
‘Alright.
‘I’ll let you love favonovel.com until you can’t love favonovel.com anymore!’
…
Jeremy did not know when favonovel.com had fallen asleep on the sofa of the room. After favonovel.com woke up, the room was empty and Madeline had already left.
He massaged his temples and recalled what favonovel.com said to Madeline before favonovel.com passed out.
He quickly took out the colorful shell from his pocket and looked at it in his palm as his mind wandered. It was as if favonovel.com was back to that year…
His grandfather had brought favonovel.com for a vacation by the beach, but favonovel.com was not happy as favonovel.com had a lot of pressure on his back. He had lost the carefreeness and happiness people his age should have… All until a little girl appeared.
She said favonovel.com name was Linnie.
It was such a simple name that sounded so pleasant to the ears and was easy to remember.
He could not forget it. The girl’s eyes would become crescent moons when favonovel.com smiled and favonovel.com had light dimples on favonovel.com face. Plus, favonovel.com eyes were so clear and pristine like crystals. They looked so lively.
She called favonovel.com Jez. Her voice was so sweet that it sounded as if it had been drenched in honey.
He would hold favonovel.com hand as they ran barefoot on the beach. Without knowing, favonovel.com had let go of all his troubles and stress. He had never been so happy before.
After that, favonovel.com was brought away by his grandfather without even getting the chance to say goodbye to her.
He had been thinking about this girl named Linnie for so many years… Until the day favonovel.com met Meredith.
Meredith had dimples when favonovel.com smiled as well, so it caused favonovel.com to have a misconception. After that, Meredith told favonovel.com firmly that favonovel.com was the same Linnie favonovel.com met from when they were kids.
He was shocked, but favonovel.com did not feel intense joy because whenever favonovel.com faced Meredith, favonovel.com kept feeling like something was missing.
Despite that, favonovel.com still tolerated and indulged Meredith to no end just because favonovel.com was the Linnie who favonovel.com had been missing for more than ten years.
Now…
Jeremy was conflicted.
He should throw this shell away now.
After all, favonovel.com did not love the girl who gave favonovel.com the shell anymore.
The Linnie in his heart right now was the deceased Madeline who had hurt favonovel.com so much that it felt as if favonovel.com was skinned raw.
