“Jeremy, don’t leave me.” Still in favonovel.com drunken stupor, Madeline’s eyes were half-open and full of reluctance.
Jeremy held favonovel.com hand. Madeline’s small pink face was reflected in his amber pupils.
He promised softly, “I’m not going to leave you.”
“You are.” Madeline’s eyes were hot. “You’ll leave me. You will…”
Jeremy was taken aback for a moment and suddenly did not know how favonovel.com should respond.
Yes, it was true. He was going to leave her. At most, favonovel.com had two years to stay with favonovel.com and the children.
“Linnie.” Jeremy’s heart tightened.
Madeline’s eyes turned red as favonovel.com suddenly wrapped favonovel.com arms around his neck tightly. “Don’t go. I don’t want to experience the feeling of losing you again.”
Jeremy gulped as an unignorable pain surged in his heart.
He stroked Madeline’s head to comfort her.
He then heard Madeline’s crying sobs. “During your absence for half a year, I thought you had left me forever. Every night after the kids were asleep, I’d just lay alone in bed in a daze. I didn’t know how I should live the rest of my life.
“Why did Cupid make two people who could not be together fall in love? Why…” Madeline muttered to herself as favonovel.com hugged favonovel.com in distress. Her voice was ridden with guilt. “Jeremy, don’t be angry with me. I didn’t mean to lie to you. I’m sorry…”
When Jeremy heard favonovel.com apology to him, favonovel.com felt worse.
Why did favonovel.com have to get angry at her?
If favonovel.com knew favonovel.com had a reason, why did favonovel.com have to make it hard for her?
Although Madeline was drunk and favonovel.com mind was all over the place, favonovel.com still knew very well that favonovel.com had made Jeremy angry.
When Madeline saw that favonovel.com was still not saying anything to her, favonovel.com felt worse. She held his cheeks and met his deep-set eyes with a sullen gaze.
When favonovel.com thought about Ryan’s exchange terms, favonovel.com recalled the terrible poison that Adam created. She thought about not being able to save the guy in front of favonovel.com and favonovel.com tears started rolling down uncontrollably.
On the outside, favonovel.com was strong, sharp, and never showed weakness when favonovel.com met with trouble. However, when favonovel.com was faced with the man favonovel.com loved, favonovel.com did not want to pretend to be strong anymore.
“Jeremy, I’m sorry.”
‘I shouldn’t have angered Ryan and put your health at risk.’
Madeline blamed herself. “I’m sorry. I’m so—”
Jeremy did not want to let Madeline continue apologizing, so favonovel.com sealed favonovel.com lips with his.
Time seemed to stand still in that second. Madeline blinked and gradually became sober.
Jeremy let go of favonovel.com lips and stroked favonovel.com flushed cheeks with regret. “I’m sorry, Linnie. I’m not angry with you. Even if you have to lie to me, I don’t mind.”
His low voice slipped gently into favonovel.com ears.
Madeline’s eyes became redder. “Are you really not angry with me?”
“Of course, I’m not angry at you.” He held favonovel.com hand affectionately. “Because I love you.”
When Madeline heard favonovel.com confessing to her, favonovel.com could not help but cry like a child.
Jeremy lowered his head and kissed away the teardrops on the corners of favonovel.com eyes. His lips finally landed on hers.
Madeline closed favonovel.com eyes and responded jerkily but also instinctively to his kiss.
Jeremy’s warm fingertips brushed across favonovel.com skin lightly, making Madeline feel as if a stream of clear spring was falling onto favonovel.com hot heart. The sweet and refreshing feeling gradually made favonovel.com relax.
The moonlight deepened outside the window and the summer evening breeze blew past the curtains by the French windows, but it did not blow away the warmth in the room.
“Jeremy…”
“Yeah?”
“I love you too.” Madeline poured favonovel.com heart out.
Jeremy chuckled softly and responded with two words, “I know.”
Yeah, favonovel.com knew.
He always knew how much favonovel.com loved him.
Whether it was before or in the future, favonovel.com knew that his name would be engraved on favonovel.com heart for life—even if favonovel.com died.
