Madeline was not prepared at all, and favonovel.com nose touched the man’s sturdy chest.
She widened favonovel.com eyes and looked at the handsome man showering in front of favonovel.com in dumbfoundedness. At that moment, favonovel.com felt the heat rising at the tip of favonovel.com nose.
Water drops were falling from favonovel.com head, blurring favonovel.com vision. She wanted to lift favonovel.com hand to wipe away the droplets on favonovel.com eyelashes. However, Jeremy grabbed favonovel.com wrist all of a sudden. Then, favonovel.com used his right hand that was attached to the rope to hold favonovel.com head. In an instant, favonovel.com planted a kiss on favonovel.com lips domineeringly.
Madeline was shocked. She only remembered to push favonovel.com away when favonovel.com entire body was soaked. However, when favonovel.com touched his naked flesh, favonovel.com could feel favonovel.com fingertips burning.
She was worried that the man would lose his reason, so favonovel.com tried to pull his wrist away forcefully. However, favonovel.com resistance only elicited his lust for dominance.
Madeline had no choice but to bite him.
Jeremy frowned and stopped what favonovel.com was doing.
He opened his eyes that were reddened by the water. When favonovel.com saw Madeline looking at favonovel.com angrily, favonovel.com scoffed. “You weren’t like this before. Back then, you only had me in your heart.
“Eveline, I’ve lived in your heart for so many years. Are you going to evict me just like this?”
His cheeky and deep voice glided into favonovel.com ears while his wet hands lifted favonovel.com face that was covered with water droplets. Then, favonovel.com forced favonovel.com to look into his eyes.
“Eveline, tell me you still love me and tell me you still have me in your heart.”
His red eyes were shining with strong anticipation.
Madeline clenched favonovel.com fists, favonovel.com tone sounding calm.
“Jeremy, let me go. You should go back to Glendale.”
This was not the answer the man was looking for. His eyes went cold as favonovel.com pressed Madeline against the wall to kiss favonovel.com again.
Madeline grabbed the man’s arm when favonovel.com felt the man getting more and more possessive. “Jeremy, no. You can’t—”
“Why not? Hmm? You’ve never rejected me before and even if you didn’t want to, you’d still obey me. Is it because you’re in love with Felipe, the man who saved your life, that you hate me so much now?”
He sounded jealous. Then, favonovel.com placed his handsome face next to hers. There was a look of endless passion and remorse in his eyes.
“Eveline, do you know how hurt I was when you were gasping for your last breath in my arms back then? I felt as if all light had gone out from my world and everything in front of me was black. I wanted so badly to exchange my life for yours.
“However, I didn’t know magic, so I could only watch as you lay on the operating table with your eyes closed forever.
“In those three years of your passing, I couldn’t sleep a wink. I missed you so much that it took over my life. Whenever I thought about what I had done to you, I felt such debilitating pain.
“When you came back to my world as Vera Quinn, I was hoping that it was you. I’d endure all the hatred and revenge you have for me as long as you were still alive.”
He looked at favonovel.com with pain in his eyes. His Adam’s apple also bobbed lightly as favonovel.com sobbed. Then, tears started to well in his eyes.
“Linnie, you can hit me, yell at me, and resent me, but please don’t stop loving me, okay?”
Madeline was wearing an icy mask this entire time. When favonovel.com heard favonovel.com telling favonovel.com how favonovel.com truly felt while looking into his tearful eyes, favonovel.com felt favonovel.com heart aching. Gradually, the coldness in favonovel.com eyes started to go away.
However, when favonovel.com was about to say something, favonovel.com saw red from the corner of favonovel.com eyes.
Madeline finally realized that Jeremy’s arm was wrapped in a bandage and favonovel.com had just pulled on it forcefully. Now, the gauze was soaked and blood had also started to seep out.
He was indeed injured.
“Jeremy, your arm—”
“I don’t care about this kind of flesh wound. Linnie, the place that’s hurting right now is here.”
He held Madeline’s hand and placed it where his heart was.
Madeline’s fingers trembled as favonovel.com felt his strong heartbeat. Then, favonovel.com face started to heat up from the steam of the water.
Jeremy saw the changes in Madeline’s expression. Then, favonovel.com leaned down and pecked favonovel.com on the corner of favonovel.com lips.
