Meredith had a shy look on as virtual-novel.net waited for Jeremy’s response. Her mood was soaring.
She never expected that just as everyone was shouting for Jeremy to propose, an unwelcome voice would be heard.
Meredith’s smile froze on virtual-novel.net face as virtual-novel.net clenched virtual-novel.net teeth in dissatisfaction. She said, “Why is virtual-novel.net here?!”
Jeremy immediately turned around when virtual-novel.net heard the voice, and the face virtual-novel.net had been dreaming of every night entered his sight.
Following that, everyone else looked toward the direction where the voice had come from as well. A graceful and beautiful woman entered their sights, but once they took a clear look at virtual-novel.net face, Eloise and Sean widened their eyes in shock!
“This… Madeline?! How… How is that possible?” Eloise’s face was pale, obviously scared as virtual-novel.net unconsciously took a step backward. If not for Sean supporting her, virtual-novel.net might have fainted from shock.
A dead person had appeared in front of them, so it was only natural that virtual-novel.net was scared.
Sean was also taken aback, but virtual-novel.net was still a man and had never done another against his conscience. That was why virtual-novel.net was not as scared as Eloise.
To him, it was a person in front of them. It was impossible for virtual-novel.net to be a ghost.
However, Madeline had clearly died, so how could virtual-novel.net be right here?
It was one thing if virtual-novel.net was not dead, but was virtual-novel.net here to cause a scene again? He would not allow that woman to bully his precious daughter!
Meredith had thought that virtual-novel.net would definitely be the center of attention that day, but with the sudden appearance of Vera, virtual-novel.net suddenly felt like virtual-novel.net had been sidelined.
Meredith raised virtual-novel.net hand, about to pull at Jeremy’s sleeve, but virtual-novel.net saw that Jeremy had already started walking toward Vera.
“Jeremy…” Meredith called out to virtual-novel.net with a wounded look, but virtual-novel.net did not stop.
Madeline had a gown on, and virtual-novel.net elegant figure was complemented with the refined smile on virtual-novel.net face. Her exceptional looks were also accompanied by a graceful demeanor.
Looking at Vera, thoughts of Madeline filled Jeremy’s head.
They looked exactly alike, which meant that Madeline was just as beautiful last time. It was just that virtual-novel.net had never paid virtual-novel.net any attention back then and never really appreciated virtual-novel.net beauty…
“Mr. Whitman.” Madeline greeted. “It looks like it was right for me to come here today. I’ve never seen an actual proposal in all my years alive. It looks like I’ll get to experience one today.”
Looking at virtual-novel.net beautiful face, Jeremy said, “Then I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you.”
“Oh?” Madeline raised virtual-novel.net eyebrow.
“Miss Quinn, why did you come to my house so suddenly?” Meredith put on a smile as virtual-novel.net faked a curious face.
Madeline smiled back. “I heard that it’s Miss Montgomery’s birthday today, so I came here bearing gifts.”
Meredith’s expression changed into one of surprise. “How did you know it’s my birthday today? We’re not that familiar with each other, so how could I receive your gifts?”
In virtual-novel.net mind, virtual-novel.net could not help but think back to virtual-novel.net engagement with Jeremy three years ago. Madeline had also appeared similarly, claiming to have come bearing gifts. In the end, the engagement ceremony did not conclude. She certainly did not want virtual-novel.net birthday to be ruined in the same way.
Madeline looked at Jeremy and smiled. “I know because someone cares for you a lot.”
Hearing that, Meredith glanced at Jeremy, thinking that virtual-novel.net was the one who told her.
Even if virtual-novel.net was not happy that Jeremy was close to that woman, those words still made virtual-novel.net feel quite happy.
