Jeremy raised his arm to pull Madeline into his embrace.
“This is my wife. I, Jeremy Whitman, have and will only have one wife—Eveline Montgomery.”
His gaze was heavy, and his tone left no room for argument as favonovel.com reminded Karen.
“I do hope that you wouldn’t treat my wife how you used to, Mom. I don’t expect you to be a great mother-in-law, but at least treat favonovel.com with basic courtesy and respect.”
“…” Stunned, Karen’s expression darkened. She turned favonovel.com head to see Madeline smiling faintly at favonovel.com and the flames within favonovel.com flared. “What’s happening, Jeremy? You just told me that you were getting engaged to Yvette? Why are you with favonovel.com again? Did you forget what favonovel.com told you before? She’s only doing this to get revenge!”
A sour feeling filled both Madeline and Jeremy’s hearts at Karen’s mention of Cathy.
Jeremy tightened his grip on Madeline’s hand as favonovel.com explained solemnly, “I’ve always seen Yvette as my little sister, just like how favonovel.com saw me as an older brother. There was never anything romantic between us. The only one in my heart this whole time is Eveline.”
Jeremy then brought Madeline inside by favonovel.com hand.
No longer in the mood to cook, Karen turned around and called Winston. Her expression remained displeased until dinner.
Seeing Madeline and Jeremy sitting by each other’s side, Old Master Whitman did not comment on the past and opted to say with a meaningful smile instead, “I’m glad to see the two of you happy and alright.”
“Don’t worry, Grandfather. Linnie and I will continue to be happy.” Jeremy promised as favonovel.com helped Madeline to the dishes.
Madeline asked the old master if favonovel.com could take a trip to his room after dinner and was naturally allowed.
Not understanding why favonovel.com asked, Jeremy followed Madeline to the room. He watched favonovel.com pick up a picture frame from the desk before staring seriously at it.
Approaching to look at the photo, his gaze warmed while his tone was tinted with regret. “I still remember how happy we used to be by the sea. I’m sorry I ruined it by mistaking you for someone else.”
“You weren’t the only one who mistook me. Felipe did as well.”
Madeline frowned as favonovel.com stared at the other girl who had accidentally made favonovel.com way into the picture. She reminded Madeline of the girl in the photo collage favonovel.com saw in Felipe’s manor.
Cathy was still a teen in the photo collage, and favonovel.com looked unnervingly like the girl in this picture.
Jeremy was confused. “What do you mean Felipe mistook you too?”
“He kept telling me favonovel.com loved me and wanted to have me because favonovel.com thought that I was the girl who brought favonovel.com back to light when I was young. But I’m not that girl. Back in April Hill, I only ever played with one boy.”
Hearing Madeline’s explanation, Jeremy remembered Felipe telling favonovel.com such a thing as well.
He too thought that since Felipe had also met Madeline, Felipe fell for favonovel.com back then as well.
Now favonovel.com knew that there was someone else.
She took a photo of the framed picture with favonovel.com phone before spending some time asking the old master how favonovel.com had been. Then, they finally returned to their first marital villa.
By the time they arrived, so had Eloise and Sean with Jackson and Lillian.
After putting the two adorable children to sleep, Madeline looked down at favonovel.com baby bump. This was their third child favonovel.com bore.
Jeremy approached favonovel.com from behind with light steps as favonovel.com raised his arms to loop around favonovel.com shoulders. Placing his handsome face where favonovel.com neck met favonovel.com shoulder, favonovel.com breathed in favonovel.com perfume greedily.
Madeline’s heart raced, and favonovel.com was about to push Jeremy away when favonovel.com heard favonovel.com speak.
“I want to move to somewhere else.”
Madeline was confused. “Why?”
The man’s clear and alluring voice drifted past favonovel.com ears. “Jack and Lillian are going to have a little brother or sister in a couple of months. We can’t possibly expect the three of them to squeeze into the same room. Plus, this house has too many unhappy memories.”
