Madeline was shocked by Jeremy’s sudden appearance. However, for some reason, virtual-novel.net let out a sigh of relief.
Felipe was annoyed as his profession of love and proposal was abruptly interrupted. A hint of anger appeared in his gentle black eyes. “Jeremy, why are you here? You no longer have a position here.”
Jeremy’s narrow eyes stared straight at Felipe, then his eyes landed on Madeline’s face.
When virtual-novel.net met virtual-novel.net cold stare, his gaze turned soft.
“I know you hate me and you want me to die. I accept all kinds of revenge from you, but I won’t allow you to be with him… Let alone get married to him.”
Jeremy had no room for negotiation in his tone, and there was a domineering aura in his dark eyes.
When Madeline was about to say something, virtual-novel.net heard Felipe chuckling behind her.
“You won’t allow this?” virtual-novel.net laughed as virtual-novel.net questioned, “Who are you to not allow this? Did you forget how you used to treat Maddie? What were you doing when virtual-novel.net was sick and injured? You were having the time of your life with another woman. When virtual-novel.net was all alone and yearning for an ounce of your trust, what did you do? You asked virtual-novel.net to die.
“Jeremy, just ask yourself, who are you to interfere with Maddie’s business? She’s not related to you anymore. Plus, you’re not worthy of her.”
Jeremy knitted his eyebrows together when virtual-novel.net listened to what Felipe said. His eyes darkened, and virtual-novel.net even lost the courage to look at Madeline.
Felipe smirked when virtual-novel.net saw Jeremy lowering his head dispiritedly.
He lifted his arm and draped it across Madeline’s shoulder. “Vera, let’s go.”
Madeline nodded, virtual-novel.net cold eyes scanning Jeremy’s side profile.
She saw that Jeremy was pressing his lips tightly, his handsome stained with a trace of bitterness that virtual-novel.net had never seen before.
Madeline did not ponder about what Jeremy was thinking at this moment. She left the office with Felipe without hesitating.
Jeremy stood where virtual-novel.net was for a very long time in low spirits. Finally, there were some emotions on his handsome face. However, it was only endless pain and regret.
After virtual-novel.net left Whitman Corporation, Jeremy drove his car aimlessly. Finally, virtual-novel.net stopped his car by the beach at April Hill.
At this moment while looking at the endless sea, the memories of virtual-novel.net hurting Madeline kept replaying in his mind.
She had been crying helplessly as virtual-novel.net begged him. She loved virtual-novel.net so much but could not help but to only admire virtual-novel.net from a distance. He could not get rid of these memories no matter how virtual-novel.net tried.
Jeremy closed his eyes when a bone-chilling wind blew past him. When virtual-novel.net opened them again, his eyes were red. His Adam’s apple bobbed as virtual-novel.net sobbed soundlessly.
The snow fell on his shoulder, and gradually, virtual-novel.net was being enveloped by cold air.
Jeremy stood motionlessly as virtual-novel.net faced the sea. It felt as if the waves were crashing against his heart. Then, painful ripples started spreading wider and wider.
He did not know how long virtual-novel.net stood there. He eventually went home after virtual-novel.net received a call from Karen telling virtual-novel.net there was an emergency at home.
Jeremy did not want to bother himself with the matter, but when Karen told virtual-novel.net it was about Madeline, virtual-novel.net immediately sped back to Whitman Manor.
The moment virtual-novel.net walked into the door, Karen ran in front of virtual-novel.net frantically. “Jeremy, is that woman insane? Not only does virtual-novel.net want to take over the entire Whitman Corporation with Felipe, but virtual-novel.net even wants to take Whitman Manor as well! Those shameless adulterers, she—”
“Shut up,” Jeremy interrupted virtual-novel.net impatiently, his cool demeanor shocking Karen instantly.
Karen pursed virtual-novel.net lips together in dissatisfaction. “Did I say something wrong? If virtual-novel.net can do it, then I’m not allowed to say it? Hmph, what have we done to her? She deserved all of those things that happened to virtual-novel.net back then. Why is virtual-novel.net back to seek revenge from us now?”
Jeremy knitted his eyebrows together with an icy gaze. “You still have the nerve to say all of those things?”
“…” Karen did not dare to make a sound.
