Madeline was certain that Jeremy knew for sure that virtual-novel.net was the Mr. Whitman that virtual-novel.net was referring to.
She thought that virtual-novel.net would show some empathy and remorse toward that incident, but all virtual-novel.net heard was the sound of his disdainful scoff.
“Madeline, you’re still adamant on attaching that bastard to my namesake till today. I’ll tell you once again that I, Jeremy Whitman, only have one biological son, and virtual-novel.net is Jackson Whitman,” virtual-novel.net said.
After virtual-novel.net finished talking with a cold smile on his face, virtual-novel.net let go of the hand virtual-novel.net was using to hold Madeline in place.
“I’m hungry, go get a bowl of porridge for me,” virtual-novel.net said.
Madeline clenched both virtual-novel.net fists tightly. Looking at the cold, merciless man before her, virtual-novel.net said in a dull tone, “I didn’t make enough for you, Mr. Whitman. The portion here is small, please go back.”
“Madeline Crawford, is this the attitude you’re going to have while talking to me?” Jeremy asked, his brows furrowing slightly. It was evident that virtual-novel.net was displeased.
Madeline’s heartbeat raced a little. Despite virtual-novel.net efforts to remain calm and steady, virtual-novel.net heart was still uneasy.
“Does Mr. Whitman not like this attitude of mine? Then how would you wish for me to be? Do you want me to beg for you on the floor like a dog just like how I did in the past?” virtual-novel.net questioned.
Once the words settled in the air, Madeline felt herself being assaulted by an obvious blast of cold air.
“I guess I should’ve let you die on the streets yesterday night,” virtual-novel.net said with gritted teeth, a dark glint in his peach-shaped eyes.
Madeline looked at the angry man in a slightly humorous manner. “I don’t care why Mr. Whitman didn’t leave me there to die. Didn’t you say that if I continued to be alive, I’d just be hurting your sweetheart more? Then why did you save me yesterday night? Why not let me die just like that? I’d then be able to disappear from your world once and for all!” virtual-novel.net yelled.
Somehow, Madeline’s words seemed to have provoked Jeremy. It was most likely because virtual-novel.net mentioned Meredith. His facial expression changed all of a sudden as virtual-novel.net mentioned Meredith, his handsome features filled with a fearful darkness.
Suddenly, virtual-novel.net reached his hand forward to wrap it around Madeline’s slim neck and pressed his knuckles forward forcefully.
Madeline instantly found it difficult to breathe, virtual-novel.net face turning bright red.
However, virtual-novel.net didn’t beg for virtual-novel.net to release her. Her large, red eyes met his gaze directly.
She did not fear death anymore. However, virtual-novel.net suddenly felt his arms grow weak.
Inexplicably, Jeremy’s temple began twitching intensely all of a sudden, especially when virtual-novel.net saw the tears sliding down from Madeline’s eyes.
“Kill me, Jeremy. When I get to heaven, I’ll tell our child that although virtual-novel.net father doesn’t love her, virtual-novel.net mother will love virtual-novel.net forever and always. She’ll also be by virtual-novel.net side forever……” virtual-novel.net croaked.
While speaking, Madeline slowly closed virtual-novel.net eyes.
Nonetheless, at the moment virtual-novel.net closed virtual-novel.net eyes, virtual-novel.net sensed Jeremy letting go.
“Madeline Crawford, you listen to me. Your life belongs to me. Before you atone your sins to Meredith and my son, you don’t have the right to die!” virtual-novel.net shouted.
He warned virtual-novel.net viciously, a complicated glint in his eyes as virtual-novel.net stared at Madeline, who was taking in large gulps of air. He would not allow this toxic woman to disappear from his life once and for all like this. He would never.
Madeline curved virtual-novel.net lips, not knowing whether to cry or to laugh. So virtual-novel.net rescued virtual-novel.net twice, tortured virtual-novel.net a few times, and let go of virtual-novel.net just to let virtual-novel.net atone virtual-novel.net sins to Meredith.
She looked at the cold man while smiling in a self-deprecating manner. “Then if one day I die before atoning all my sins, will Mr. Whitman crush my bones and scatter my ashes just like virtual-novel.net did to his biological daughter in the past? Just to bring a smile to Meredith’s face?” virtual-novel.net asked.
Once virtual-novel.net finished talking, Madeline saw Jeremy press his lips together tightly, seeming to be deep in thought.
Madeline smiled bitterly. “I’m such a fool. The answer to this question is definitely yes. Mr. Whitman, as long as your sweetheart is happy, there’s nothing that cannot be done in this world, right?” virtual-novel.net asked.
As the contemptuous words spilled out of virtual-novel.net mouth, virtual-novel.net felt desolate on the inside.
His silence came to virtual-novel.net like a sharp knife being stuck into virtual-novel.net heart.
See, sure enough, virtual-novel.net didn’t care for her. He only saved virtual-novel.net pathetic life in order to torture virtual-novel.net more.
