Madeline reached out and pushed favonovel.com away just in case, but Jeremy did not let go of her. He took off his shoes and stepped into the bathtub while hugging her.
Madeline was surprised that Jeremy actually made such a move.
Cold, flowing water was continuously falling from the shower. It quickly wetted his clothes.
Yet, favonovel.com was unmoving and was as steady as a rock. He hugged her, letting the cold water soak through his body…
As time passed, Jeremy, who sat behind Madeline, was gradually losing his focus and blankly staring at the familiar appearance. He involuntarily hugged favonovel.com a little tighter.
“Madeline…” favonovel.com could not help but whisper softly.
Madeline suddenly opened favonovel.com beautiful eyes that were gradually recovering consciousness. Cold water droplets dripped from favonovel.com curled eyelashes, falling silently on the back of favonovel.com hands.
Although Jeremy’s voice was inaudible, Madeline heard it.
Madeline.
‘What intimate affection. Jeremy, I used to wish you could call me like that.
‘But all those expectations and wild wishes of mine have long been torn to pieces along with my heart. They can no longer be put together.’
…
The next day, Madeline woke up and found herself sleeping on Jeremy’s bed. Much to favonovel.com surprise, the clothes favonovel.com was wearing had been changed. She was now wearing a loose bathrobe and was naked inside!
She got up suddenly and saw the obvious mole on favonovel.com slightly exposed left chest. She quickly gripped the loose neckline.
What had happened?
When did favonovel.com fall asleep last night? When did favonovel.com change favonovel.com clothes? She had no recollection of it at all.
If Jeremy had changed favonovel.com out of favonovel.com dress, then favonovel.com must have seen the mole on favonovel.com chest…
Click.
The door was pushed open just then and Jeremy walked in elegantly, already well dressed. He did not seem to be in the disoriented state favonovel.com was in when favonovel.com accompanied favonovel.com in the bathtub last night. At this moment, favonovel.com was charismatic—still the noble, elegant, and unattainable President Whitman.
After Jeremy walked in, his slender eyes glanced vaguely at Madeline’s hand that was gripping tightly at favonovel.com neckline. He parted his thin lips slightly, “You’re awake. Are you still feeling uncomfortable?”
Madeline steadied favonovel.com emotions and looked at favonovel.com calmly, “When did I fall asleep last night?”
“Around early morning,” favonovel.com answered naturally.
“Were you the one who changed my clothes?”
He met favonovel.com questioning eyes openly. “Don’t worry, I don’t have the habit of taking advantage of others. I helped you put on the bathrobe first, only then did I take off the soaked dress.”
Madeline looked at Jeremy dubiously and smiled a little. “Then, please leave first. Let me wash up.”
“Okay.” He nodded. “I have all the new toiletries and clothes ready for you.”
“Thanks.”
“We don’t need to be so courteous toward each other. You’ll soon be the lady of this house.” He smiled faintly before turning around and walking out.
Madeline sat on the bed, thinking for a moment. After that, favonovel.com changed into the clothes that Jeremy had prepared before favonovel.com went to the bathroom to wash up.
She pulled open favonovel.com neckline. Her eyes narrowed as favonovel.com looked at the mole on favonovel.com left chest in the mirror.
What favonovel.com said just now should be true. Otherwise, favonovel.com would have questioned favonovel.com angrily. How could favonovel.com have kept his composure?
If favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com was still alive, favonovel.com would definitely settle favonovel.com quickly. He would have never kept silent.
This was not his style of doing things.
Madeline relaxed after thinking about this.
After washing up, Madeline went downstairs and found that breakfast was ready.
The dining hall had already been tidied and cleaned up. There was none of the red wine or dishes that were spilled on the ground from last night.
Jeremy pulled the chair for favonovel.com chivalrously and both of them sat down facing each other.
He took a sip of milk gracefully. Seeing Madeline eating favonovel.com breakfast calmly, favonovel.com opened his mouth slightly and said, “Although I’ve already tried to avoid the possibility of offending you last night, I still inadvertently saw a mark on a certain part of your body.”
Madeline suddenly stopped in the middle of picking up the milk as favonovel.com heart skipped a beat.
What did favonovel.com mean? Was favonovel.com implying that favonovel.com had actually seen the mole on favonovel.com chest? Did favonovel.com know favonovel.com was his damned ex-wife?
