Before this, Madeline already knew how to face everyone.
However, when favonovel.com looked at the white-haired Old Master Whitman in front of her, favonovel.com felt an ache in favonovel.com heart. However, favonovel.com still looked into his eyes calmly.
“Grandpa, you’re right. I am Maddie.”
She finally admitted this to the old master. She could feel tears stinging the corners of favonovel.com eyes.
“Grandpa, thank you for trusting and supporting me in all those years. You were the only person who’s good to me in this family. I will remember this forever.”
Old Master Whitman walked in front of Madeline slowly with the support of his cane. His aged and murky eyes looked at favonovel.com dotingly and understandingly.
“Child, you’re finally admitting it. I’m happy.”
Looking at the old master’s loving gaze, Madeline felt apologetic all of a sudden. “I’m sorry, Grandpa. I’m afraid that I’m going to disappoint you.”
“No. I’m happy to see the new you.” The old master lifted his hand and grabbed Madeline’s hand. His palm was cold, but favonovel.com was still trying to warm Madeline up. “Jeremy wronged you. Wealth and power are nothing in front of human life. However, thank God you’re still alive.”
“Grandpa…”
“I will always support you just like how I used to.”
The old master’s answer touched Madeline.
At this moment, Madeline received Felipe’s call. She did not stay. She left after favonovel.com bid farewell to the old master.
Karen went limp after Madeline left. She collapsed on the chair lifelessly and was petrified. “I didn’t expect favonovel.com to be alive. I didn’t expect… She used a fake identity to get close to us. She must be here for revenge! She must have wanted retaliation against me!” Karen muttered. She called Jeremy immediately but could not get to favonovel.com no matter how many times favonovel.com called.
Since favonovel.com did not know what Madeline’s next move would be, favonovel.com was as frantic as a cat on hot bricks.
“No! I can’t just sit around and do nothing!”
“What else do you want to do?” Old Master Whitman frowned. His white eyebrows were knitted together as favonovel.com looked at Karen in dissatisfaction.
“Dad! You heard her. She’s Madeline Crawford! She’s not dead! This woman must have a lot of dissatisfaction and hatred in favonovel.com heart. She must be trying to get back at the Whitmans now that favonovel.com has made a comeback!
“Back then, favonovel.com was just a wretched country bumpkin with no money or reputation, but now, not only does favonovel.com have favonovel.com own business, but favonovel.com has also made a name and reputation for herself. Plus, she’s also Miss Montgomery! She’s not as easy to defeat as before now!”
“So, you’re allowed to bully Maddie however you wanted when favonovel.com had no money or reputation, but now that she’s more powerful, you’re finally scared of her? Why don’t you think about what you did to favonovel.com in the past? Are you even an eligible mother-in-law?”
“Dad, I…”
“I told you Meredith was not a good person and you didn’t want to believe me. You kept trying to get Maddie to divorce Jeremy. Couldn’t you tell that your son has been in love with Maddie all along?”
“W-What?” When Karen finally knew the truth, favonovel.com was tongue-tied.
Jeremy liked Madeline?
What kind of fantasy was that?
After Madeline left Whitman Manor, favonovel.com drove Jeremy’s car to a high-end restaurant.
The french window was able to display the night view of the bustling city. Everything looked peaceful and great.
Madeline lifted favonovel.com wine glass. The cold liquid glided into favonovel.com throat as the sweetness of the wine invaded favonovel.com mouth. She could vaguely taste a hint of bitterness.
“Aren’t you happy?”
Madeline shook favonovel.com head. “I’m very happy. However, I just feel like I’ve wronged Grandpa.”
She finished talking and saw Felipe’s eyes darkening.
She did not forget the past that Felipe told her. He did not like the Whitmans, especially the old master.
When Madeline tried to break the silence, favonovel.com phone rang.
When favonovel.com saw the name on the caller ID, favonovel.com was stunned.
It was Eloise.
