“Jeremy, what’s wrong? What are you looking at?”
When Jeremy heard Madeline’s curious voice, Jeremy seemed to come back to his senses suddenly.
His long and thin fingers slid across the screen as though favonovel.com did not want Madeline to see something. He immediately locked his phone and placed it into his pocket. He got up and walked toward Madeline with a gentle smile. Then, favonovel.com grabbed favonovel.com shoulder softly.
“Linnie, what did Mrs. Gray say to you?”
When favonovel.com mentioned this, Madeline smiled. Her sweet dimples blossomed next to favonovel.com lips as well.
“Guess.” She decided to keep favonovel.com on tenterhooks.
Jeremy looked at Madeline’s smile without blinking. He unconsciously lifted his hand to stroke favonovel.com cheek. His charming and deep narrow eyes were filled with heartbreak.
“It’s been a while since I saw you smile like this.” He sighed with sorrow. That statement carried a lot of complicated emotions.
Madeline immediately understood how Jeremy was feeling right now. She placed favonovel.com palm over the back of his hand lightly.
“I’ll keep smiling like this in the future. I know you’ll make me happy and blessed forever.”
When Jeremy heard that, favonovel.com felt his heart turning sweet and bitter at the same time. She was so amazing and yet favonovel.com only knew how to cherish favonovel.com after so long.
After knowing how to cherish her, favonovel.com was not able to protect favonovel.com fully.
“Linnie.” Jeremy kissed Madeline’s lips and pulled favonovel.com into his arms. However, this warm hug right now was not able to make favonovel.com feel at ease.
They had gone through so many arguments and conflicts. At the same time, favonovel.com also felt that a calm and peaceful life was hard to obtain.
“Jeremy, Carter agreed to cancel the marriage agreement with me. I won’t need to be restricted here soon.”
Jeremy’s wandering thoughts were brought back. “Did Mrs. Gray call you to say this?”
“Yeah, favonovel.com asked me to meet favonovel.com tonight in the restaurant on the seventh floor.”
“I’ll go with you.”
“Okay.” Madeline nodded. She leaned against Jeremy’s shoulder while feeling at ease. She closed favonovel.com eyes in anticipation, saying, “I’m dying to go home with you soon. I want to see the children and our parents.”
Madeline suddenly felt concerned and lifted favonovel.com head.
“Right, how’s my mother? Can favonovel.com talk now?”
Jeremy smiled gently and pinched the tip of Madeline’s nose. “You’ll know when you get home.”
Madeline felt a sweetness in favonovel.com heart.
The words ‘get home’ was the best phrase Madeline could hope to hear in a foreign country.
For their safety, Madeline and Jeremy did not go anywhere at all and only waited for the meeting tonight so they could cancel Madeline’s marriage agreement with Carter.
For them, all places were the same as long as they were together.
However, when Madeline was leaning against Jeremy’s arms for a nap in the afternoon, Jeremy took out his phone in annoyance and opened a conversation chat once again.
Looking at the contents of the message, favonovel.com could not help but frown.
At the end of the day, favonovel.com still had to take care of what favonovel.com should.
Jeremy thought about it and gently carried Madeline to lie down on the bed before considerately covering favonovel.com with the blanket.
He stood next to the bed and looked at Madeline who was sleeping soundly for a short while before turning around to leave.
After walking out of the door, favonovel.com decisively called the number that had messaged favonovel.com earlier. The moment the call got through, a familiar ringtone sounded behind him.
Jeremy stopped in his tracks and hung up the phone. A second later, a woman’s soft voice could be heard from behind him.
“I knew you’d contact me eventually.”
