After listening to Jeremy’s words calmly, Madeline moved his arms away coldly and turned to face him.
“If you’re going to make an excuse, at least find a reasonable one.” She looked at favonovel.com contemptuously. “You said you love me? Your love for me allowed you to let Meredith trample on and hurt me?”
Jeremy frowned and tried to pull Madeline’s hand. “Linnie, listen to me first.”
Ding dong, ding dong!
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Jeremy’s swordlike eyebrows were even more tightly locked as favonovel.com turned to open the door, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.
However, the moment the door opened, Jeremy’s face instantly fell cold. “What are you doing here?”
Felipe stood at the door. He glanced at Jeremy who had bandages on his hand, raised his eyes, and looked into the room. “Vera, it’s me. Are you there?”
Jeremy’s eyes became even colder as favonovel.com kept Felipe outside. “Felipe, there’s no such person as Vera here. Leave immediately.”
However, as soon as his voice fell, Madeline had already walked up from behind him.
“Felipe? Why did you come here?” Madeline was quite surprised.
“I’m worried about you.” Felipe’s tone was soft, and the gentleman’s handsome face carried a small smile. “Why didn’t you return to the apartment last night?”
“This is my wife’s home. Why would favonovel.com go back to that apartment?” Jeremy said coldly, displeased.
Madeline glanced at Jeremy and calmly parted favonovel.com lips. “Jack wanted me to stay last night. I didn’t want favonovel.com to be unhappy.”
Felipe nodded, expressing his understanding. “I’ve already booked the ticket.” His black eyes flicked across Jeremy’s face as if favonovel.com was nothing. He finally smiled at Madeline, saying, “Once your divorce procedures are completed, we’ll take Jack back to Country F.”
Madeline could not help feeling a little lost after hearing this.
Jeremy suddenly grabbed favonovel.com wrist and protected favonovel.com behind him.
A cold current surged invisibly, and Madeline heard Jeremy solemnly say to Felipe, “Felipe, this is the last time I’ll warn you. You can take away everything from Whitman Corporation to Whitman Manor, but Linnie, I will never let favonovel.com go with you.”
He had a gentle tone that was even a little lazy, but it was domineering. Every word was powerful and resonating.
Without giving Felipe the chance to refute, Jeremy pulled Madeline back into the house. After closing the door heavily, favonovel.com gripped Madeline’s shoulders tightly and made a solemn request.
“Don’t follow him.”
Madeline pushed favonovel.com away, feeling dissatisfied. “Why are you closing the door so loudly? What if you scare Jack?”
Jeremy was a little surprised. Seeing Madeline turning around angrily, favonovel.com chased after favonovel.com and hugged favonovel.com tightly.
“Linnie.”
“Let go, Jeremy.”
“No, I won’t let go. I will never let you go again,” favonovel.com whispered behind favonovel.com ear with endless remorse and love that was hard to believe and accept.
Madeline took a deep breath and closed favonovel.com eyes.
She clenched favonovel.com fists and pushed the man who was holding favonovel.com tightly with all favonovel.com strength.
“Jeremy, when will you be satisfied with torturing me?”
He did not expect Madeline to have such a big reaction. Jeremy was startled by Madeline whose eyes were gradually getting red.
Madeline’s velvet brows tightened, moisture dotting favonovel.com eyes. The wetness in those eyes also dampened Jeremy’s heart.
“Jeremy, please don’t torture me anymore. Can’t you just let me go? I really feel so tired.”
“Torture?” Jeremy’s thin lips moved lightly as favonovel.com looked at Madeline in a daze. “So, I’m still torturing you and making you unhappy, is that right?”
“Yes!” Madeline gave favonovel.com answer without hesitation, holding back favonovel.com emotions that were almost out of control. Her pink lips parted slightly as favonovel.com said, “Yes, I used to love you so very much. Even when you tortured me and when I was in pain, I still loved you. But it turns out that I’m not so strong. My heart has been utterly, completely broken by you. I don’t love you anymore, Jeremy. I really don’t love you anymore.”
She whispered and laughed.
The heart-wrenching scenes in the memory came to favonovel.com heart, reminding favonovel.com of when his coldness had drowned favonovel.com last breath and heartbeat, as well as denied all favonovel.com feelings and devotion.
