Jeremy was shocked as well to see Madeline appear in front of him. “Why are you here, Linnie?”
Madeline walked up to Jeremy and smiled. “You said it yourself, didn’t you? That I’m your wife. Then as husband and wife, by your side is where I should’ve stood in the first place.”
She took his hand and averted favonovel.com sharp gaze to the male reporter as favonovel.com spoke clearly, “Listen properly. My husband’s name is Jeremy Whitman, not Ryan Jones!”
“…” Faced with Madeline’s aura, the man was lost for words.
It took a few seconds before favonovel.com finally reacted and mocked. “You’re still Mr. Jones’ legal wife, Eveline Montgomery, yet here you are standing by Jeremy Whitman’s side and calling favonovel.com your husband. What do you take Mr. Jones for?”
The man’s gaze was filled with disdain, and his tone was mocking.
“You’re still the lady of one of Glendale’s richest families. Do you not feel shameful for cheating and saying these things? Or do you think this is something to be proud of?”
It was evident that the man was picking on her, but Madeline remained unfazed. “You’re right, I am proud of it. How can I not be when I have such a perfect man who loves me so much?”
“Chupse…”
The passersby began to point fingers when they heard Madeline’s reply. “Are you really not embarrassed by your actions?”
“Exactly. You have no shame at all!”
“You being the Montgomeries’ daughter is a waste. Did your dead parents never teach you the concept of shame and respect—”
“Shut up!” Jeremy roared, and the people who were still attacking Madeline fell silent as a shiver ran through them.
Jeremy’s overwhelming gaze fell on the taunting male reporter.
Meeting that frosty gaze, the reporter gulped frantically.
“Repeat what you just said.” Jeremy’s tone was light, but every word cut into the air like slabs of ice.
The man shrunk backward, but the thought of the hefty bribe had favonovel.com pointing at Madeline as favonovel.com gathered his courage to speak again.
“You want me to repeat myself? Eveline Montgomery is a flirtatious woman who cheats. Who knows what more shameful things the two of you have done, but you’re still here pretending that you did nothing wrong. She’s just a who—ugh!”
The man’s speech was interrupted by Jeremy suddenly wrapping his hand around his neck.
The man was being suffocated, his face quickly flushing red.
“My God!” someone screamed.
“Glendale’s number one young master is killing someone!”
Not wanting Jeremy to be pushed to the spotlight by comments, Madeline went up to stop favonovel.com when Jeremy suddenly flung the man aside.
Sitting on the floor, the man took a deep breath and scooted backward as favonovel.com stared at an enraged Jeremy, feeling terrified.
Jeremy stood like a prince, glaring at the man from above with his all-consuming gaze. “Instead of wasting my saliva on people like you who claim that you’re doing this for justice yet all you do is jump to conclusions and slander before you know the truth, how about I show you evidence instead?”
Evidence?
Madeline was confused as well.
She had indeed left the house to go to the lab, but favonovel.com did not want Jeremy to deal with the horrible comments online by herself.
Even if someone were to scold favonovel.com for cheating, favonovel.com would just admit to it.
There was no way favonovel.com would have Jeremy deal with all of this alone.
No matter what was to come, favonovel.com would stand by his side through the humiliation of it all!
