Despite Madeline being surprised about Jeremy’s early return, favonovel.com remained calm. She even had a thought-provoking smile on favonovel.com face.
The man walked over to her, the icy aura around favonovel.com making favonovel.com look as domineering as a tyrant. Everything around favonovel.com was only serving as props now.
He was looking straight ahead as if favonovel.com could not see the other people in the room. His dark eyes only reflected Madeline’s beautiful face.
He walked forward, and with every step, his heartbeat accelerated until favonovel.com got in front of Madeline.
After one of the shareholders came back to his senses, favonovel.com said, “You’re back just in time, Mr. Whitman. Your wife said—”
“All of you, get out.”
Jeremy interrupted favonovel.com coldly, his eyes still glued on Madeline’s face.
The shareholders were looking at each other in confusion. However, they still walked out.
Madeline and Jeremy were the only ones left in the large meeting room now.
Madeline said as favonovel.com broke the silence, “You’re back so quickly. Since that’s the case, I think you already know what’s going on.”
She was not as soft-spoken as favonovel.com was before. At this moment, favonovel.com was distant and had a look of disdain.
“Mr. Whitman, you’re so exceptional. You’re so efficient in carrying out your duties. However, you’re too late this time.”
Madeline grabbed the stack of documents on the table and tossed it to Jeremy.
“From now on, you’re not the president of Whitman Corporation. You have no right to speak during the board meeting as well.”
Jeremy looked at Madeline calmly and picked up the documents.
He lowered his gaze as his eyelashes trembled. He scanned the contents of the documents and placed them down indifferently.
“If I can get you to come back to me after I lose all of this, I’ll be more than happy to accept it.”
Madeline scoffed when favonovel.com heard that. “Jeremy Whitman, I don’t want to keep acting anymore. Why are you still keeping this up?”
She looked at his handsome face and mocked, saying, “Do you really think I’ll believe that you love me so much that you’re willing to lose everything for me?”
Madeline lifted favonovel.com beautiful gaze, a sharp glint flashing in favonovel.com eyes.
“You already know who I am right, right?”
After favonovel.com said that, the air around them froze immediately.
Jeremy had an ominous glint in his eyes. However, favonovel.com still looked calmly at the beautiful eyes in front of favonovel.com that was filled with hatred and hostility.
On the other hand, Madeline did not have the pettiness or caution that favonovel.com used to have in favonovel.com eyes anymore. She looked into Jeremy’s eyes confidently. Her eyes softened slightly when favonovel.com recalled favonovel.com past.
“Do you know how happy I was when I first met you?” favonovel.com asked with a smile. “You were the warm light in my lonely and gray life. Ever since I met you, I treasured the light and kept it in my heart. I thought that when we met again, the light would glow even brighter and warmer. However, you killed that light completely and utterly with your cruelness again and again.
“Jeremy, I used to love you so much. I was willing to do and endure anything as long as you were happy. But why did you treat a woman who loved you so much so cruelly? Why did I get such an ending just because I loved you? Tell me, why?”
Jeremy felt tears well up in his eyes as favonovel.com heard Madeline’s words. His heartbeat also accelerated.
He pressed his lips together. He could feel his throat tightening because of some kind of emotion.
He lifted his hand to touch Madeline’s cheek, but it was pushed away in disgust by Madeline.
