After virtual-novel.net heard that, Meredith’s face froze. However, virtual-novel.net did not forget to maintain virtual-novel.net vulnerable and pitiful expression. Her voice sounded so aggrieved as if virtual-novel.net was going to cry at any second. “Miss Quinn, are you saying that you’ll keep pestering my fiancé and continue to be the third party?”
Madeline parted virtual-novel.net pink lips and said slowly, “Do you know why I gave you a mirror on your birthday?”
“…” Meredith’s face fell.
“I guess you’re still confused about your position. No wonder Jeremy still refuses to marry you after so many years.” Madeline displayed a thought-provoking smile on virtual-novel.net face before getting up and leaving.
Meredith stood up immediately as virtual-novel.net hypocritical mask cracked. “Vera Quinn! I’m showing you kindness and yet you’re refusing to accept it! Alright! If that’s the case, just you wait. You’ll know the consequences of crossing me soon enough!”
Madeline turned around nonchalantly. When virtual-novel.net saw Meredith’s furious face, virtual-novel.net smiled even wider.
“Let that day come sooner. I can’t wait,” virtual-novel.net said, holding virtual-novel.net phone tighter.
Right.
She could not wait.
‘Just come at me, Meredith.
‘I’m ready to take anything you throw my way.
Meredith angrily ran to a room next to virtual-novel.net after Madeline left the cafe.
“So? Did you get it?” virtual-novel.net asked angrily.
That person shook the phone. “I got it all filmed.”
Meredith was slightly relieved. She narrowed virtual-novel.net sinister eyes.
“Hmph, Vera Quinn, since you refuse to accept my conditions, then I’ll thoroughly ruin your reputation! I’ll let you experience what Madeline experienced back then!”
Madeline went to the hotel after virtual-novel.net left the cafe.
She did not expect Jeremy to be the one to welcome her.
Plus, Madeline noticed Jeremy looking at virtual-novel.net much more normally compared to last time.
Perhaps Felipe had successfully stopped virtual-novel.net from suspecting her.
Of course, Madeline did not tell virtual-novel.net about virtual-novel.net meeting with Meredith. She only focused on finishing the tasks at hand.
After that, Jeremy said to her, “Miss Vera, can I have the honor of buying you lunch? Just think of it as a taste test.”
Madeline agreed. Then, virtual-novel.net followed Jeremy into the VIP room.
The third floor was not too high up. The light breeze rustled the branches outside the french windows. The yellow leaves spun in the air like butterflies, fluttering across the window quietly.
The early fall after summer was much cooler.
Jeremy poured some wine for Madeline and virtual-novel.net had some himself as well. After a while, there was a tinge of redness on his cheeks. His narrow eyes looked even more alluring now.
“It’s best if you don’t get drunk, Mr. Whitman,” said Madeline with a smile, “If not, you’ll babble nonsense to me again like that day. I don’t want to hear those words again.”
Jeremy looked into Madeline’s eyes. “What did I say that night?”
Madeline lifted virtual-novel.net glass and nodded. Then, virtual-novel.net said profoundly, “You grabbed me and said, ‘Linnie, don’t go’.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, Madeline noticed a curious spark in Jeremy’s eyes.
Madeline’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly took a sip of virtual-novel.net wine to hide virtual-novel.net awkwardness.
That night, Jeremy had called virtual-novel.net Linnie. Despite virtual-novel.net knowing that virtual-novel.net was calling out to Meredith, virtual-novel.net could not deny that virtual-novel.net was hoping for virtual-novel.net to call out to her. When they were young, virtual-novel.net had looked after virtual-novel.net when they were at the beach…
A few seconds passed and Jeremy lowered his gaze, hiding the emotions behind his eyes. “Aside from that, what else did I say?”
Madeline looked at him. “You kept telling me, ‘Linnie, don’t go. Don’t go’. Who is this Linnie? Isn’t Meredith the person you love the most, Mr. Whitman?”
She deliberately asked virtual-novel.net this question. Then, virtual-novel.net added, “Right, that day, you were holding a colorful shell as well. It doesn’t seem like something valuable, so why were you holding it so nervously?”
