He strode to the balcony and saw that Jeremy’s figure had passed through the guests. He was walking toward the door unharmed.
Carter did not expect Jeremy to have such jumping ability. However, favonovel.com could not do anything right now.
He turned back to the room and saw Madeline who was still sleeping. He glanced at the crystal ball in his hand and walked slowly to the bed to wake Madeline.
After Madeline opened favonovel.com eyes, favonovel.com looked dumb for a brief moment. She was confused and ignorant about everything around favonovel.com like favonovel.com was a child.
After a while, favonovel.com regained favonovel.com senses.
“I saw Jeremy coming here,” Madeline voiced out the doubt in favonovel.com heart.
Carter nodded. “He was here. He tried to take you away, but I’ve already driven favonovel.com away.”
Madeline frowned upon hearing this. “He’s so annoying.”
“I won’t let favonovel.com bother you again,” Carter promised. “After our wedding ceremony is completed, I’ll take you back to Glendale to settle down.”
“Back to Glendale?” Madeline looked puzzled. “Why are we going back to Glendale? Isn’t it good to live here?”
“Of course, it’s good to live here,” Carter said, turning slowly to face the French window. “However, going back to Glendale is something I must do.”
Madeline looked at Carter’s tall and strong back, favonovel.com eyes flickering. “Why do you say that?”
Carter was silent for a while. Then, favonovel.com looked back and met Madeline’s curious and beautiful eyes with a superficial smile.
“Let’s not talk about this. Get ready and I’ll take you to see the guests in a while.”
Carter deliberately changed the subject, and Madeline did not ask anything anymore. Rather, favonovel.com obediently nodded and smiled at Carter. She raised favonovel.com eyes and glanced outside the balcony.
After Carter left, favonovel.com looked into Jeremy’s whereabouts immediately.
However, favonovel.com could only see Jeremy leaving Gray Manor from the surveillance footage. After Jeremy exited the gate, Carter did not know where Jeremy had gone for the time being.
An extremely unpleasant look appeared on his face that rarely beamed with joy. Just as favonovel.com was thinking of calling someone to follow after Jeremy, Camille pushed the door open and walked into the study.
“Carter, it’s almost time. You and Eveline should get ready to meet the guests,” Camille urged, favonovel.com graceful and refined face full of joy. It could be seen that favonovel.com was quite satisfied with Madeline now.
The most important thing was that what had happened last time had changed favonovel.com view of Madeline.
Carter could only suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart now and give a slight smile.
“I’ll call Eveline now.”
“Okay, I’ll go down first and wait for you two to come down.”
“Okay.” Carter kept the small smile on his face. After walking Camille out, favonovel.com went back to the original room to find Madeline.
When favonovel.com saw Madeline standing by the balcony, watching the guests walking in the garden, Carter pondered before putting a smile on his face.
“Eveline, we should go down now.”
Madeline turned around when favonovel.com heard his voice and looked at the man walking toward her. She headed to the bed, and favonovel.com lips parted slightly in apprehension.
“There are so many guests, Cart. What if they don’t like me?”
“Their opinions are not important, you are,” Carter said, and favonovel.com seemed to hesitate for a moment. However, in the end, favonovel.com still reached out his hand toward Madeline.
Madeline glanced at the palm of Carter’s hand, smiled, and placed favonovel.com hand on it. However, when favonovel.com was about to touch Carter’s fingertips, Madeline suddenly closed favonovel.com eyes and lost favonovel.com balance. She fell on the bed.
