“Eveline, I’m no longer in love with you.
“This is my fiancée, Vetty.
“What? Are you worried that I’ll harm Felipe’s kid, Mrs. Whitman?”
Madeline was feeling favonovel.com heart aching as favonovel.com placed favonovel.com hand on favonovel.com abdomen.
‘Jeremy, this is your biological child.
‘In my entire life, I’ve no other man aside from you.
‘But in the end, you still don’t believe in me.’
Madeline smiled bitterly. She suddenly recalled that two days ago, there was a stranger who claimed to have a bad ending in their relationship who added favonovel.com on social media.
Currently, aside from that stranger, there was no one else favonovel.com could turn to.
Hence, favonovel.com accepted that stranger’s request. Just when favonovel.com was thinking about how favonovel.com should greet that stranger, the latter sent favonovel.com a message: [Hello miss, I’m very glad you’ve added me as a friend.]
Madeline replied: [Nice to meet you, stranger.]
[Miss, I’ve just ended my relationship and I’m feeling very sad. Can you keep me company for a little longer?]
Madeline was not feeling any much better as well and started having a conversation with the stranger.
Upon waking up from favonovel.com slumber the next morning, Madeline realized favonovel.com had fallen asleep without favonovel.com realizing it.
She got herself cleaned up, then headed downstairs to have favonovel.com breakfast. At that time, Felipe showed up.
He came to pick favonovel.com up and send favonovel.com to Whitman Corporation, claiming that favonovel.com wanted to appoint Madeline as the director of the jewelry designing department of Whitman Corporation.
Madeline had no power to reject the offer, but to favonovel.com surprise, the very first project to be discussed had something to do with Jeremy.
Jeremy had offered a price of one million to hire Whitman Corporation to customize a jewelry design for him.
Madeline was doubtful whether Felipe was intentionally trying to test favonovel.com by allowing favonovel.com to meet Jeremy all by herself to discuss the project. He even set the time for at night.
Madeline, under the name of the young mistress of Whitman Corporation, went into the conference room to meet Jeremy.
At that time, all the workers in the department had already left. Only the two of them were left on the entire floor.
Jeremy sat opposite Madeline. He did not even glance at favonovel.com and just buried his head into his phone. He spoke, “I totally acknowledge Mrs. Whitman’s ability in designing jewelry. I’m going to marry my fiancée. So, I hope you’ll give it your all to design a pair of wedding rings for us.”
‘So, it turns out that Jeremy is willing to offer a price of a million to have me design favonovel.com a nice pair of rings.’
Madeline replied calmly, “Can you please state your preference for the design, Mr. Whitman? I’ll follow strictly to what my client requests for their design.”
“I’ve only one request.”
“And what’s that?”
Jeremy raised his gaze, matching up to Madeline’s calm one.
“I hope you’ll be able to design a pair of rings that will really show what marriage symbolizes and the true meaning of this union. I hope my new wife will not be like my ex-wife who ended up being with another man even after wearing a so-called wedding ring that’s meant to indicate a lifetime together.”
Madeline understood that Jeremy was trying to tease her.
She smiled while keeping the contract booklet. “I’m afraid only a designer with a sorcerer’s power will be able to take on the challenge. I’m sorry, I can’t accomplish it.”
Madeline then got up to favonovel.com feet and left.
“How dare you call yourself a designer if you can’t even make this happen?”
“…”
Madeline finally realized that Jeremy was trying to infuriate her. His trip here this time was to go against her.
‘What a narrow-minded man.’
Gritting favonovel.com teeth, favonovel.com spun around. Just when favonovel.com was about to reply, there was a flash of lightning seen outside the window. With a loud roar, the lights in the conference room went out and the entire building was now pitch-black.
Madeline attempted to take out favonovel.com phone to turn on the flashlight, but favonovel.com hand slipped and favonovel.com phone dropped on the ground. She quickly went over to retrieve it, yet favonovel.com head bumped into the man who was approaching her.
Madeline grabbed onto Jeremy’s collar when favonovel.com was about to topple over, and Jeremy instinctively caught hold of favonovel.com waist.
Madeline’s heart was pounding hard when favonovel.com noticed favonovel.com breathing so close to her. An idea darted through her.
‘Right now, the circuit has been cut off and it’s pitch-black everywhere. Does it mean that Felipe can no longer keep an eye on me?’
The thought of it made Madeline take the initiative to hug Jeremy. Leaning favonovel.com body against him, favonovel.com said, “I’ve something to tell you, Jeremy.”
