When Madeline remembered virtual-novel.net battered self, virtual-novel.net did not know what to do.
Every woman would want to present their best selves to the man they loved. However, whenever virtual-novel.net was with him, virtual-novel.net would be in virtual-novel.net worst and most torn-up state. At this moment, virtual-novel.net was even covered in the scars virtual-novel.net had given her.
“Who allowed you to come in?” Jeremy stopped outside the door.
Madeline looked at him. “This is my home.”
“Your home?” The man chuckled lowly. “Do you think you have the right to call this your home?”
The light in Madeline’s eyes faded. Jeremy’s words stabbed virtual-novel.net heart like glass shards.
“If Mer weren’t so kind, you would still be rotting in prison.” Jeremy’s words were laced with love for Meredith.
Madeline scoffed. “Yeah, if it weren’t not for , I wouldn’t have ended up in such a place.”
It was obvious that Jeremy was enraged by what virtual-novel.net had said. “You’re still trying to talk back at a time like this?”
“Jeremy, I did not! I’m telling the truth!” Madeline clenched virtual-novel.net fists and emphasized virtual-novel.net words with virtual-novel.net head high.
Nonetheless, the man’s handsome face was covered by a layer of frost. He lifted his icy glare and peered at Madeline. “No, huh? Alright, get over there and kneel. I’ll believe you if you kneel until the rain stops.”
Madeline was stunned, and virtual-novel.net subconsciously touched virtual-novel.net stomach.
“Don’t you want me to believe you? Why are you still standing here?” Jeremy said in a cold voice.
Madeline stood in the rain as virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net tearful eyes at the man who used to care about virtual-novel.net so much in virtual-novel.net memories. “Jeremy, I have…”
“Jeremy, I’m hungry.”
Before Madeline could finish talking, Meredith’s girly voice was heard from inside the house.
So, Meredith was here.
An indescribable pain started to spread all over virtual-novel.net body. Madeline’s heart sank. It was as if it was sinking in a bottomless abyss.
Jeremy peered at Madeline impatiently. “Meredith will spend the night here. If you want to enter this house, you’ll have to kneel until I’m happy.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net slammed the door and turned around mercilessly.
The cold rain fell onto Madelin’s body. Consequently, the temperature of virtual-novel.net heart plummeted along with the temperature of virtual-novel.net body.
The sky became dark, and Madeline saw that the lights were turned on in the master bedroom. Two shadows were casted on the curtain, and they were such a sore sight.
‘Jeremy, will you really believe me?’
‘At the end of the day, I still won’t be able to compare to Meredith’s breath when next to you in bed…’
After that night, still in a drowsy state, Madeline was met with Meredith’s smirk.
“Madeline, I didn’t think you’d kneel for the entire night just to get Jeremy’s attention.”
Meredith was speaking with a lot of energy. It seemed like the child in virtual-novel.net stomach was fortunate to still be fine despite virtual-novel.net having rolled down the stairs.
“If you like to kneel, continue kneeling!”
She cackled heinously before turning around.
Madeline’s mouth was dry. She was unwell, so virtual-novel.net did not have the energy to argue with Meredith.
After having stayed in the same position for an entire night, Madeline’s limbs were extremely numb. She got up and struggled to enter the house. However, before virtual-novel.net could walk any further, Jeremy appeared in front of her.
Madeline was so tired that virtual-novel.net knees were bent. She reached out virtual-novel.net hand and grabbed Jeremy’s collar. Her pale lips pleaded, “Jeremy, please believe me. I really didn’t push Meredith…”
Jeremy scoffed. “Why should I believe such a vile and heartless woman like you?” After virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net pushed Madeline away.
Madeline’s head was in immense pain as virtual-novel.net sprawled on the floor; virtual-novel.net was in so much pain that virtual-novel.net could not get up. She clutched virtual-novel.net stomach, and cold sweat started to form on virtual-novel.net forehead.
When virtual-novel.net thought about the child in virtual-novel.net stomach, Madeline used all virtual-novel.net might to grab Jeremy’s pants. “Jeremy, my stomach hurts. Please take me to the hospital.”
However, Jeremy only peered at virtual-novel.net in disgust. “Madeline, you’re so good at acting.”
“No, Jeremy… I’m not… Jeremy, I’m in a lot of pain…” Madeline moved virtual-novel.net lips lightly. She could feel herself drifting in and out of consciousness. She held onto his pants. “Even if you hate me or resent me, the child in my stomach is yours…”
“Hmph.” Jeremy scoffed. There was ridicule in his eyes. “Child? Madeline, you really can make anything up! Get lost!”
Jeremy kicked away virtual-novel.net hand that was holding his pants. Upon being kicked away, Madeline laughed lamentably. She lifted virtual-novel.net head to look at the frigid man in front of her. Tears fell down from virtual-novel.net eyes as virtual-novel.net felt an excruciating pain in virtual-novel.net heart. “12 years ago, a boy said to me, ‘Linnie, I’ll protect and cherish you forever. I won’t let you get hurt…’ So I guess those were all lies… Throughout the past 12 years, it was all a pathetic obsession… You’re not my Jez anymore.”
What?
Jeremy’s heart skipped a beat. The perfect and untouched intimate memory that virtual-novel.net had always kept in his heart reappeared without warning.
He had met a girl named Linnie at the beach that year.
That girl was naive and innocent. She was cute and mischievous. He had almost fallen in love with virtual-novel.net at first sight.
In those beautiful memories, that girl would always follow virtual-novel.net and call virtual-novel.net Jez sweetly.
He had promised virtual-novel.net that virtual-novel.net would stay with virtual-novel.net forever and take virtual-novel.net as his wife.
After virtual-novel.net found out that the girl’s name was Meredith, Jeremy made up his mind to be good to the girl named Meredith forever. He would punish those who hurt virtual-novel.net severely!
However, why was Madeline suddenly telling virtual-novel.net about the promise virtual-novel.net had made when virtual-novel.net was young?
Jeremy felt as if something was going to leap out of his chest. He bent down and grabbed Madeline’s shoulders with his hands. “What did you say?”
