Jeremy paused when favonovel.com heard Madeline’s queries.
He raised his long, almond-shaped eyes slowly. A cold, hard glint was reflected in his amber eyes.
The look in his eyes did not seem right.
Madeline felt extremely curious. She walked over to favonovel.com to take a glance at what favonovel.com was looking at.
However, Jeremy quickly kept the photos and put them inside an envelope. He then raised his eyes and smiled faintly at her.
“They’re just some photos from our collaborator. There’s nothing much to see,” favonovel.com said. He threw the file into his drawer and locked it. “Why did you come over all of a sudden? Did you miss me?” favonovel.com asked.
Madeline’s eyes crinkled in a smile. “I was passing by after sending the kids to kindergarten,” favonovel.com replied.
“So you’re here just because you were nearby?” favonovel.com asked.
“Yeah, just because I was nearby.” She chuckled coquettishly. The truth was, favonovel.com did not come over just because favonovel.com was nearby. She missed him.
Raising favonovel.com eyes, favonovel.com noticed that the button at Jeremy’s collar was unbuttoned. Madeline raised favonovel.com hand to button it up. However, just as favonovel.com touched his collar, favonovel.com moved back and turned to take some documents from the table.
Madeline’s hand remained suspended in mid-air.
“Jeremy?” favonovel.com asked.
“I need to get ready for the meeting,” favonovel.com replied. However, it seemed like favonovel.com was intentionally explaining himself to her. “You haven’t been visiting Ryan these few days?” favonovel.com asked.
Madeline was still in the midst of wondering why favonovel.com was avoiding her. Upon hearing favonovel.com bringing up Ryan, favonovel.com gaze shone.
“I’ll just be causing more distress to favonovel.com if I go there. That’s why I’d rather not go,” favonovel.com explained.
“You’re so considerate toward him.”
Madeline detected a sense of jealousy from the way favonovel.com worded this sentence.
However, it seemed like favonovel.com was afraid that favonovel.com would get the wrong idea. Jeremy smiled faintly at her. “If you’re worried about his condition, you can go visit him. I trust you,” favonovel.com said.
Madeline looked at favonovel.com in disbelief. “Jeremy, you really don’t mind me visiting Ryan?” favonovel.com asked.
“I mind it,” favonovel.com replied curtly, “But if that’s something you want to do, I won’t stop you from doing so.”
His words touched Madeline’s heart. Nevertheless, the image of the incident that occurred that day in the hotel floated into favonovel.com mind.
Although it was part of someone’s scheme, favonovel.com could not help but feel that favonovel.com had done something to betray Jeremy.
Since Jeremy would be attending a meeting, favonovel.com did not stay for long either.
The moment favonovel.com stepped out of the office, Jeremy took out the envelope favonovel.com had thrown into the drawer just now.
He picked one of the photos and took a glance at it. A cloud of darkness seeped into his eyes.
He did not attend any meetings. Instead, favonovel.com drove over to Ryan’s house.
The servants, who were cleaning up the courtyard, could not stop favonovel.com in time. Jeremy rushed into the house like a whirlwind.
Ryan had just come back from the hospital after changing the dressings on his wound. Before favonovel.com could take a seat, Jeremy appeared before him.
Mrs. Jones recognized Jeremy at first sight. She had not forgotten how favonovel.com almost snapped favonovel.com wrist in half just to protect Eveline Montgomery that day.
“It’s you? Why are you here? How dare you enter our house?”
Braving herself against him, Mrs. Jones questioned favonovel.com cynically.
“I know you’re from the Whitman family. You’ve been given the title of the prince of the wealthiest family in Glendale. Hmph! A person like you going around snatching someone else’s wife, don’t you have any shame?” favonovel.com asked.
Once favonovel.com stopped talking, favonovel.com sensed a gust of chilly air blowing against her.
Jeremy stared at Mrs. Jones coldly. His gaze then fell on Ryan. “If you don’t want your family to get involved, stay as far from favonovel.com as possible.”
