Even though Madeline could guess this from Meredith’s replies, when Jeremy gave favonovel.com an affirmative answer, favonovel.com was still stunned all the same.
The cold wind from the early winter caressed favonovel.com face. That bone-chilling coldness made Madeline recall the man’s cruelness back then.
She could never forget about his cruel and cold-blooded actions as well as his gaze.
After a while, Madeline curled favonovel.com lips superficially. “You hate Madeline so much, so why did you even erect a tombstone for her? You’re even giving favonovel.com roses. I don’t understand this,” favonovel.com smiled as favonovel.com said. She could not accept this reality.
He hated favonovel.com so much that favonovel.com wanted to crush favonovel.com into dust, so why was favonovel.com commemorating favonovel.com passing?
Jeremy smiled when favonovel.com heard that. His gentle gaze landed on Madeline’s face. “I know you won’t believe me because even I’ve lied to myself a few times.”
Madeline turned favonovel.com head. “Lied to yourself?”
Jeremy smiled and looked at Madeline. “I lied to myself that favonovel.com passing is just a lie and I lied to myself that… I didn’t love her.”
“…”
After favonovel.com said that, Madeline felt as if favonovel.com heart had been ripped out from favonovel.com chest. A sarcastic smile spread across favonovel.com face.
What an emotional speech. However, favonovel.com could not feel any arousal of emotions or sweetness from his words. There was only pathetic hypocrisy.
She laughed as favonovel.com turned around. She said slowly, “You brought me all the way here just to tell me you love Madeline?”
After favonovel.com asked this question, Madeline chuckled lowly.
“I don’t know what happened between you two, but I know if a man truly loves a woman, favonovel.com wouldn’t let favonovel.com cry. If you really cared and was concerned about her, favonovel.com wouldn’t have died just like that.”
Madeline clenched favonovel.com fists that were hiding in favonovel.com sleeves. She controlled the hatred in favonovel.com heart as favonovel.com looked at Jeremy coldly.
“Jeremy, you don’t love Madeline. You love Meredith. Everyone in Glendale knows that.”
She denied everything. The man in front of favonovel.com looked straight at favonovel.com without arguing.
“I got it. After Madeline died and you learned about the truth during this period, you’ve started feeling that you’re indebted to Madeline, so that’s why you erected a tombstone for her. You also give favonovel.com flowers as an apology, right?”
Madeline explained why Jeremy was doing that. This was also the most reasonable reason favonovel.com could think of.
However, Jeremy only smiled at Madeline while keeping silent.
…
After they went home, Madeline went to the kitchen to make dinner.
Of course, favonovel.com did not have the mood to make dinner for Jeremy anymore. However, favonovel.com was more than happy to make a delicious meal for Jackson.
Madeline made three different kinds of dishes and some soup. It was a simple family meal.
Back then, favonovel.com had spent so many evenings making dinner for Jeremy and yet, favonovel.com never even tried favonovel.com food before.
Now, looking at favonovel.com devouring favonovel.com food, a hint of sarcasm appeared in Madeline’s eyes.
‘Jeremy, if you weren’t blind back then and did not believe everything Meredith said, this would’ve been a harmonious moment for the four of us as a family.
‘However, you’ve destroyed everything.
‘We made a promise when we were young and also made a vow on our wedding day, but in the end, it became my one-sided wishful thinking. Eventually, you even destroyed my last ounce of yearning.
‘It was the best moment of my life and yet you gave me the darkest and most painful memories.
‘Back then on that snowy day, I told you that if you didn’t kill me, I’d definitely seek revenge.’
Ding!
