Jeremy and the man who was sitting across from favonovel.com heard the sound. They both looked up at the same time.
When favonovel.com saw Madeline squatting at the stairs, holding Lillian who was crying, Jeremy was very surprised. He quickly stepped forward and wanted to comfort the crying little girl but was held back by the man.
The man shook his head at Jeremy, giving favonovel.com a hint with his eyes. He then turned away, walking out through the other door.
“Don’t cry, Lillian. Bad balloon! See, it’s okay. Don’t cry, don’t cry.” Madeline hugged the little girl sadly.
However, Lillian would not stop crying. Apart from crying, Lillian did not make any other sounds.
Jeremy looked at the little princess crying with tears streaming down favonovel.com cheeks like the rain, his heart aching at the sight. However, favonovel.com had no choice but to walk over to them coldly.
“Eveline, are you following me?”
Madeline, who was comforting Lillian, raised favonovel.com sharp gaze to look at the man looking down at her.
“Lillian got scared by the balloon that suddenly popped and the first thing you ask is if I’m following you instead of how favonovel.com is?” Madeline stood and picked up Lillian, who was still in shock, before walking over to favonovel.com on the second floor.
“When you were on the yacht and thought you were going to die, do you remember what was the last thing you longed for?”
Madeline held onto the sobbing little girl tightly with pain in favonovel.com heart.
“You wished that Lillian would call you ‘Daddy’. You said that your dying wish was to hear this child call you ‘Daddy’ at least once before you die.
“But now, favonovel.com hasn’t even said ‘Mommy’ yet, let alone ‘Daddy’.”
Jeremy squeezed his fist that was hidden in his trouser pocket, showing an impatient expression on his pale handsome face.
“Stop telling me this, Eveline. Please remember that you and I are already divorced. You’re Mrs. Jones now and I’ve given you full custody of the three kids. I’ll never disturb you anymore, so stop bothering me. I’ve had enough of you, do you understand?”
He brushed past Madeline’s shoulder with a very unpleasant attitude. He then went downstairs without even looking at Madeline from the corner of his eye.
As soon as favonovel.com went downstairs, favonovel.com turned his head and looked at the little girl who was holding onto Madeline’s neck while weeping. His own eyes had turned red as well.
Lillian was looking at favonovel.com with favonovel.com red eyes, but favonovel.com big eyes no longer showed trust and love like last time.
Jeremy’s eyes felt sore. He resisted the painful sensation from the sudden sadness that was overwhelming favonovel.com as favonovel.com quickly went downstairs and left.
Madeline stood at the same spot. She bit favonovel.com lip and did not let favonovel.com tears fall.
That day, favonovel.com vowed that favonovel.com would never shed another tear for that man again.
She comforted Lillian and was about to leave, but after favonovel.com mind calmed down, favonovel.com began to think about the reason why Jeremy was here. Who was the man who sat across from Jeremy earlier?
When favonovel.com walked upstairs, favonovel.com had heard parts of their conversation. She vaguely heard Jeremy mentioning Lana, but favonovel.com did not hear clearly about the context.
The man from just now had also suddenly disappeared from the second floor of the cafe.
Madeline approached the place where Jeremy just sat. There were two untouched cups of coffee and a used napkin.
She picked up the napkin, and favonovel.com keen sense of smell recognized the exclusive cold fragrance that belonged to Jeremy. However, there was also an unknown dark red liquid on the napkin. She could not tell what it was, but it smelled like rust.
Madeline took another napkin from favonovel.com bag and wrapped it up.
