“Does sleeping together count as being very close to each other?” Felipe counter-questioned.
Yvette shook favonovel.com head with a smile. “You can’t prove how close two people are just because they’ve slept with each other before. After all, there are way too many people having one-night stands these days.”
“We weren’t just having a one-night stand. I’ve spent many nights with her.” Felipe lowered his voice as favonovel.com inched closer to Yvette. His eyes were sparkling with suspicion. Just when favonovel.com attempted to examine favonovel.com face meticulously, his phone rang.
He glanced at the incoming call and immediately wore a soothing smile. “Miss Charis, I have a call to answer. We’ll talk about it when we get the chance.”
“Sure, Mr. Whitman.” Yvette stared at Felipe as favonovel.com spun around. Her smile gradually faded.
At the garden of the hall.
Madeline supported herself against the wall, unable to control herself from retching.
She could no longer differentiate whether it was because of favonovel.com body feeling unwell, or it was because favonovel.com was feeling emotionally disturbed when favonovel.com witnessed Jeremy acting all intimately with another lady.
“What are you plotting at by taking on the suffering of conceiving a kid of a man who had harmed our daughter, Eveline?”
Jeremy’s inquiry that was uttered in an unsatisfied tone was heard from behind. Madeline came to realize that Jeremy had already shown up behind her.
Clenching favonovel.com fist, favonovel.com said in a cold tone, “It’s none of your business.”
“If it’s really none of my business, you wouldn’t have run away from witnessing me getting engaged to another woman.”
“You’re interesting, Mr. Whitman. I’m just having morning sickness which is very common during pregnancies, so I wanted to come out and get some fresh air.” Madeline denied it calmly. “Why are you always thinking that I’ve not gotten over you?”
“If you’re really not bothered or sad, then are you brave enough to turn around and face me?”
“Why should I turn around to look at a scumbag who I hate?” Madeline snorted. “Since you’ve completed the engagement ceremony with your fiancée, I guess there’s no more reason for Felipe and me to stay here any longer.”
Suppressing the uneasiness favonovel.com was experiencing, favonovel.com headed straight for the side exit of the hall.
She could not afford to turn around as favonovel.com did not dare to do so. She was afraid that when favonovel.com faced the man, the latter would notice favonovel.com eyes that had become teary long ago.
Madeline just wanted to get away from Jeremy’s vision and did not notice a car coming from the side.
She heard the honking of the car, and at the same time, favonovel.com felt a warm hug that grabbed favonovel.com from favonovel.com waist.
Jeremy held favonovel.com tightly in his arms and brought favonovel.com to a safe zone.
Madeline appreciated how Jeremy was exerting a lot of strength into hugging favonovel.com as if favonovel.com was afraid that favonovel.com would escape the moment favonovel.com let loose.
“Even though you don’t want to face me, you shouldn’t go around risking your life.” His deep voice was heard coming from the top of favonovel.com head. His voice was trembling.
Madeline wished favonovel.com could remain in his arms, but favonovel.com forced herself to push favonovel.com away. “As long as you don’t keep bothering me, I won’t have to risk my safety.”
She suppressed favonovel.com tears from rolling out of favonovel.com eyes and shoved favonovel.com to another woman. “Go keep your fiancée company. I don’t need your protection.”
Madeline walked off when favonovel.com suddenly heard Jeremy’s cold voice coming from behind.
“Get rid of the kid in you and stay away from Felipe. This is my last advice to you as your ex-husband.”
Madeline remained composed with favonovel.com back still facing Jeremy. “Listen up, Jeremy. Even if I die, I’ll still keep this kid alive.”
Her stubbornness left Jeremy in a contradictory state.
‘Eveline, leaving favonovel.com is for your own good.
‘But you’d rather risk your life just to protect that man’s child.
‘It seems that you really do love him.’
His phone rang and favonovel.com answered it. The person on the other end of the phone’s words made Jeremy’s eyes dim. “Is this news reliable? Alright, I’ll board the next flight and will meet you soon.”
He hung up the call, spun around, and saw Yvette walking to him. “Do you know that Felipe has a warehouse in F Country on Third Street?”
Yvette shook favonovel.com head. “Regarding his business matters, favonovel.com has never allowed me to get involved. What’s wrong?”
