‘However, you’ve never given me an ounce of warmth before.
‘Do you know how much it hurt when you stabbed me in the heart?
‘You have no idea…’
Jeremy brought Madeline to the doctor. After making sure that virtual-novel.net was not hurt, virtual-novel.net was finally relieved.
Despite Madeline’s rejections, Jeremy still insisted on taking virtual-novel.net back to the apartment.
Jeremy seemed to feel more at ease when virtual-novel.net saw that Felipe was not around.
Madeline decided to kick virtual-novel.net out as virtual-novel.net was worried that virtual-novel.net might notice something. “Mr. Whitman, you should go visit your wife in the hospital.”
“I told you, she’s not my fiancé anymore,” virtual-novel.net said coldly. He looked into Madeline’s eyes as a weird glint appeared. “Don’t call me Mr. Whitman when we meet next time. You can call me by my name.”
Madeline looked at virtual-novel.net in surprise. When virtual-novel.net was about to say something, Jeremy’s phone rang.
He looked at the screen and his face quickly fell.
He hung up the phone, but after less than two seconds, it rang again.
This time, virtual-novel.net answered it. The room was quiet, so Madeline could clearly hear that it was a woman on the other end of the phone. She sounded frantic as well.
She guessed that it was probably Rose.
“I’ll come over. Stop calling,” Jeremy replied frigidly. Then, virtual-novel.net hung up the phone without hesitating even the slightest.
He looked at Madeline who was leaning against the bed. “Rest well. I’ll contact you soon.”
Madeline smiled and said profoundly, “I think we’ll see each other very soon.”
Jeremy looked at virtual-novel.net charming face in the light of the setting sun. He was stuck in a daze for about two seconds before turning around.
After virtual-novel.net left the room, virtual-novel.net subconsciously turned his gaze over to the guest room.
He contemplated for a moment before turning the doorknob gently. The door was not locked. He did not go in and just took a look from outside.
After a while, virtual-novel.net curled the corners of his lips slightly. A glint flashed across his eyes before virtual-novel.net closed the door and left.
After Madeline heard the sound of the door closing, virtual-novel.net took out virtual-novel.net phone.
She skimmed through the trending topics on Twitter before clicking into Meredith’s account.
Her page was indeed filled with curses and swears.
They were calling Meredith a two-faced b*tch and a pretentious double-sided witch. There were even netizens who berated virtual-novel.net for uploading a fake video to create such a fuss.
Madeline was satisfied with the outcome as virtual-novel.net looked through the comments with a smile.
‘Meredith, do you think I’m still the Madeline who’s so easy to take advantage of? You’re delusional if you think so!”
…
Jeremy went into the ward after virtual-novel.net arrived at the hospital. He saw Meredith sitting on the bed, looking dispirited. Her right cheek was covered with a thick layer of gauze. Her face was pale and virtual-novel.net lips were paler. When virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net coming in, virtual-novel.net wailed and buried herself in his chest. “Jeremy!”
Rose was sobbing in exaggeration on one side. “Jeremy, you’re finally here! Meredith would be devastated if you didn’t show up. The doctor said the injury might leave a scar. What should virtual-novel.net do? What should we do? Mer is going to be disfigured! Jeremy, what should—”
“Get out,” Jeremy said in annoyance.
Rose was taken aback. “Jeremy, you have to accompany Meredith. Mer’s the young madam of the number one richest family in Glendale, after all. If virtual-novel.net face is ruined, how will virtual-novel.net go out—”
“If you don’t get out now, I’ll leave,” Jeremy said coldly again. Rose trembled uncontrollably. After virtual-novel.net saw Meredith eyeing her, virtual-novel.net shut virtual-novel.net mouth and went out after closing the door behind her.
After Rose left, Meredith started to play the victim again. She held Jeremy tighter in virtual-novel.net arms, but in the next second, Jeremy pushed virtual-novel.net away.
Meredith began to cry frantically. “Jeremy, please don’t leave me. I know I was being headstrong just now, b-but it was Vera who provoked me! She came here to provoke me, saying she’d steal you away from me. That’s why I got so mad. I didn’t really want to slash virtual-novel.net face. I was just scaring her. Please, Jeremy, you have to believe me!” Meredith explained frantically, but virtual-novel.net noticed Jeremy looking at virtual-novel.net coldly. There was suspicion and disappointment in his eyes that virtual-novel.net had never seen before.
Meredith’s heartbeat accelerated. She grabbed the corner of Jeremy’s shirt, saying, “Jeremy, you believe me, right?”
“I heard everything,” Jeremy said suddenly.
The expression on Meredith’s face froze. “H-Heard what?”
“Before I came into the room, I heard what you said to Vera.”
“…”
“You’re the one who destroyed Madeline’s face!”
