Madeline had already turned around carefreely when Meredith steadied herself. Upon seeing the other woman’s back, Meredith became livid!
She pointed at Madeline’s back furiously as virtual-novel.net wrath poured out from virtual-novel.net mouth. “Vera Quinn, you b*tch! I’ll let you see what I can do! Just you wait!”
Meredith roared with all of virtual-novel.net might. When virtual-novel.net recalled what virtual-novel.net saw through the window just now, virtual-novel.net lungs felt like they were going to explode from anger.
No!
She had to recompose herself.
Meredith reminded herself that Madeline was not virtual-novel.net opponent. After all, how could a woman who looked exactly like that woman win against her?
“Vera Quinn, I’ll let you see what I can do soon enough!”
Meredith narrowed virtual-novel.net sinister-looking eyes as if they were covered with a layer of venom.
…
Madeline waited for Felipe at the junction of the street. Then, virtual-novel.net took virtual-novel.net home.
It was in the dark of the night and Madeline was standing in front of the french window looking at the night view outside. The colorful shell kept appearing in virtual-novel.net mind.
Why did Jeremy bring that shell with virtual-novel.net everywhere virtual-novel.net went?
Did virtual-novel.net not deny making that promise a long time ago? Did virtual-novel.net not deny what happened at the beach a long time ago?
Madeline could not figure it out. She turned around and looked at Lily who was fast asleep on the bed. She reached out and caressed virtual-novel.net cheek.
“Daddy…” the little girl mumbled in virtual-novel.net sleep.
Daddy.
She was calling for virtual-novel.net daddy.
She thought Felipe was the greatest and best father in the world.
Perhaps, this beautiful misunderstanding would last forever.
The next day.
The sky was grey when Jeremy woke up from his sleep groggily.
He sat up with his head feeling heavy. He remembered fragments of what happened last night. He rubbed his temples and recalled that virtual-novel.net had lost his cool last night. Not only did virtual-novel.net hold Vera as virtual-novel.net called out to Linnie, but virtual-novel.net also kissed virtual-novel.net cheek.
When virtual-novel.net thought about this, Jeremy sat up in annoyance. He found his phone and called Madeline straight away.
After the call went through, virtual-novel.net heard Madeline’s refreshing voice. “Mr. Whitman, you’re awake. You were drunk last night. I made you some breakfast and I’ll be at your place soon.”
Jeremy swallowed what virtual-novel.net wanted to say initially as a strange feeling rose in his chest.
He did not reject her, and even a smile appeared on his face. “I’ll wash up and wait for you.”
He hung up the phone and took a shower before changing into a new set of clothes. When virtual-novel.net went downstairs and walked past the sofa, virtual-novel.net saw the fallen shell.
That shell…
Jeremy was stunned. He picked up the shell to examine it. Then, virtual-novel.net remembered something and ran to the door.
Madeline walked into the house just in time to see Jeremy walking out.
Their eyes met under the dazzling morning light. Madeline noticed that Jeremy was not looking too good.
“Mr. Whitman,” Madeline called out to him.
However, after virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net heard a muffled thud coming from the courtyard.
Madeline and Jeremy turned toward the source of that sound and saw a drenched person on the ground.
It was Meredith.
