Upon hearing this, Lana’s eyes lit up immediately.
She hurriedly got up and walked into the room.
The man sitting on the bed was looking at the wounds on his body. When favonovel.com suddenly heard someone barging in, favonovel.com raised his eyebrows and looked toward the direction coldly.
Lana looked at those charming eyes, and the corners of favonovel.com lips curled up ambiguously.
“You’ve finally woken up.”
…
Glendale.
A month later, Madeline was still numbing favonovel.com thoughts by working daily. She would force herself to stop thinking about sorrowful things.
For the sake of the child in favonovel.com belly and favonovel.com lovely pair of children, favonovel.com lived every day positively and optimistically.
As favonovel.com was still unable to accept the fact that Jeremy was no longer alive, favonovel.com still had to face insomnia during the lonely nights.
Madeline came to Whitman Corporation early Monday morning and sat in the seat that once belonged to Jeremy. She then proceeded to handle all kinds of complicated documents skillfully and swiftly.
When it was time for the morning meeting, favonovel.com went ahead and attended it.
Although favonovel.com was already the new CEO of Whitman Corporation and was recognized by Old Master Whitman, Madeline still asked favonovel.com employees to call favonovel.com Madam.
This address gave favonovel.com the illusion that Jeremy was still alive, and this illusion had the ability to heal favonovel.com broken heart.
It was almost noon, and just when Madeline was about to have a meal, favonovel.com secretary came to inform her, “Madam, the head of Riverdawn Corporation mentioned that they want to change the shipment date and design of the perfume. Mr. Jones has come over to discuss it with you. He’s currently waiting for you in the restaurant next door.”
Customers came first, so Madeline headed over to the restaurant immediately.
Since it happened to be lunchtime, it was a common thing in the business field to talk about work over lunch.
Madeline went to the restaurant, but favonovel.com did not expect the meet-up place to be the restaurant with many memories.
Although those memories were not beautiful, as long as there was favonovel.com in the picture, they were all memorable to Madeline.
It was the same table by the window. The only difference was that the person in front of favonovel.com was no longer Jeremy.
Madeline ordered the dishes favonovel.com had ordered before, but when favonovel.com ate the food, favonovel.com felt that even the taste was not as good as before.
She knew that it was all because of Jeremy who had left.
Seeing Madeline’s light appetite, Ryan asked with a polite smile, “Are the dishes here not suited to Mrs. Whitman’s appetite?”
Only then did Madeline pull favonovel.com thoughts back together after hearing his words. She smiled lightly, saying, “My appetite might have changed a lot because of my pregnancy. I used to like the food here.”
“It’s because you were with Mr. Whitman all the times before that’s why the food here was delicious, yes?” Ryan’s words made Madeline dwell deeply in favonovel.com thoughts again.
Seeing that Madeline had been struck dumb, Ryan apologized to her. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Whitman. I’ve reminded you of something unhappy.”
Madeline shook favonovel.com head as favonovel.com came back to favonovel.com senses. “It’s okay. Mr. Jones, you can go ahead and tell me about the request regarding the wedding ring design. I’ll change it later when I get back.”
She smiled and looked at the man in front of her.
Ryan was the only child of the Jones family, one of the four giants in Glendale.
This man had a blessed and superior appearance. He was tall and had good looks as well.
Coupled with his munificent family background, favonovel.com was the dream lover of many ladies.
However, favonovel.com got engaged a month ago. It was said that his partner was a rich lady from Advent City, a lady with both beauty and wisdom.
Madeline had been in contact with Ryan several times before. This man was indeed the same as what favonovel.com had heard from others. He was gentle, polite, gentlemanly, and very fond of his fiancée.
That was why favonovel.com invited Madeline to talk about the design of the wedding ring today.
Madeline noted down Ryan’s request one by one, then proceeded to pay the bill and was prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, the moment favonovel.com stood up, favonovel.com stepped on a small puddle by favonovel.com feet and suddenly lost balance of favonovel.com body.
Madeline instinctively protected favonovel.com more than six months pregnant belly and held onto the table with favonovel.com other hand. Yet, before favonovel.com could grab onto the edge of the table, a palm held favonovel.com hand tightly. Her body was then stabilized by a strong arm.
“You scared me there, Mrs. Whitman. Are you alright?”
