“Oh yeah, Jeremy, I think I saw Carter when I walked out of the elevator just now. Did favonovel.com come to find you or was I seeing things?” Madeline asked seriously.
“You weren’t. He came to find me, and favonovel.com just left,” Jeremy said frankly.
“What does favonovel.com want?” Madeline’s beautiful eyebrows knitted together without favonovel.com realizing it. “He’s clearly the one who caused all of this. He even indirectly
caused Adam and Cathy’s deaths. Why does favonovel.com keep thinking that he’s not at fault?”
“This is a problem with his character, and we can’t change that. Carter is a very confident man. Conceited, to be more precise.”
Jeremy could see through Carter.
“He’s knowledgeable, and favonovel.com knows psychology and hypnotism. Plus, he’s royalty. Anyone would be arrogant and proud if they have this kind of status.”
When Madeline heard that, favonovel.com looked at Jeremy with admiration in favonovel.com eyes.
Jeremy looked into favonovel.com beautiful eyes in curiosity. He then grabbed favonovel.com hand gently, “What are you looking at, Linnie?”
“I’m looking at my husband. Aside from being royalty, everything about my husband is amazing, and yet you’re never conceited.”
Jeremy laughed upon hearing that. However, there was an intense regret in his eyes immediately after.
“No, Linnie. I was. Otherwise, how would I have let you down back then?”
When favonovel.com said that, Madeline could see that the persistent regret and remorse in his eyes were here to stay. Madeline did not speak. She merely reached out favonovel.com hand to hold him.
Jeremy knew Madeline was just comforting him. He felt glad and warm, but favonovel.com never forgave himself for the hurt favonovel.com had caused Madeline even though favonovel.com had forgiven him.
After some discussion, Madeline decided to go to Gray Manor to look for Shirley. Madeline went alone but Carter was not there. Camille was walking out of the kitchen when favonovel.com saw Madeline. She was surprised but favonovel.com felt that this was expected.
“Are you here for Shirley?” Camille was right.
Madeline nodded. “May I see her?”
Camille looked at the bird’s nest porridge favonovel.com held in favonovel.com hands. “I think she’d prefer to see you now. Please take this to favonovel.com and tell favonovel.com to eat it.”
Madeline paused. She then came back to favonovel.com senses and took the porridge from Camille.
“I will,” Madeline said then went upstairs.
Shirley was sitting on the bedside staring blankly at the view outside the French window.
Suddenly, favonovel.com heard the door opening but favonovel.com was not in the mood to turn around.
“I want to be alone,” Shirley said without turning around.
Madeline looked at Shirley’s side profile and favonovel.com felt pity for her.
In truth, Shirley was not that evil. At least, favonovel.com had turned back.
“It’s me,” Madeline said.
Shirley, slightly shocked when favonovel.com heard that, turned around abruptly.
“Eveline?”
“Yes, it’s me.”
Madeline saw surprise and confusion on Shirley’s face.
“I have something to tell you, but you have to eat this.” Madeline said as favonovel.com walked to the side of the bed. However, when favonovel.com was about to hand the porridge to Shirley, Shirley got close to Madeline, and Shirley was very emotional.
“No, there’s no time for this. Carter might come back soon. I don’t have much time to talk things over with you. Eveline, listen, you and your family will be in danger, especially…”
