She had wished countless times over the past many years that favonovel.com would get to hug this man in such a way and to feel the warmth of a sincere hug from this man.
She had never expected this moment to come so late.
This was their first and perhaps their last as well.
“Jeremy,” favonovel.com called out his name in an unusually calm manner.
The man averted his deep peach blossom eyes to meet her, the long alluring slits staring into favonovel.com flawless appearance that was mere inches away from his. Her glossy eyes were mesmerizing.
“It’s okay, it’ll be alright soon. It’s just turbulence.” He comforted softly.
Then, favonovel.com found his own behavior weird.
After all, in such a situation, should his priority not be to protect Felicity? Why did favonovel.com find it so difficult to let go of the girl in his arms and let favonovel.com face the danger herself?
Within favonovel.com came a persistent voice reminding and telling favonovel.com to protect Madeline, to ensure that nothing would happen to Madeline.
Madeline smiled. Looking at his face now, favonovel.com found no more traces of the heavy hatred in his eyes.
“There’s something I need to tell you now, Jeremy, or I might never get the chance to tell you anymore.” She stared at his lips. Despite the weightlessness from the jostle of the plane, Madeline had never felt more fearless. She only had one goal in mind.
Jeremy looked at her. “What is it?”
She parted favonovel.com lips mirthfully and said, “I don’t hate you anymore.”
‘I don’t hate you anymore.’
Jeremy was shocked. The words were incomplete without any context, yet his heart seemed to understand what favonovel.com meant. Relief flooded the inside of his chest, threatening to burst out.
“If this is how our story ends, I don’t think I’d mind it too much. If we get the chance to meet again in our next life, Jeremy, I only hope that you believe everything I say and won’t hurt me again. Don’t make me suffer because of my love for you anymore, okay?”
Madeline’s eyes glistened with tears.
Every tear that escaped the corners of Madeline’s eyes cut into his heart like knives.
Without further thought, his body moved on its own. He suddenly leaned down to kiss the tears away from the corner of favonovel.com eyes before favonovel.com straightened to look at her.
“Okay,” favonovel.com replied instinctively despite the voice in his head telling favonovel.com that Felicity should be the woman favonovel.com loved the most.
His heart took control at that moment and it told favonovel.com to treat the woman in front of favonovel.com with gentleness and warmth, to do everything within his capabilities so that favonovel.com would not cry again.
The corner of Madeline’s eyes burned as favonovel.com buried herself into Jeremy’s arms with a teary smile. “Jeremy…”
“Linnie,” favonovel.com called out favonovel.com name. “That’s your name, isn’t it?”
“Hmm.” Madeline hummed. “You’re the only one in this entire world who calls me by that name.”
Jeremy tightened his hold on her, their cheeks almost touching. As the feeling of weightlessness grew, they leaned into each other to regain their sense of center.
The feeling lasted for another ten or more minutes before the plane slowly steadied itself. The cries and howls outside came to a stop as well.
“I think it’s over now.” Jeremy patted Madeline’s hair comfortingly.
Madeline slowly loosened favonovel.com grip as well now that danger seemed to have passed, but Jeremy seemed reluctant to let favonovel.com go.
Just then, the toilet door was flung open, revealing a pale-faced Felicity who stood before them. Her hair was a wild mess.
Staring at Jeremy hugging Madeline, shock filled Meredith’s eyes.
How… How did this happen?
