He stood behind virtual-novel.net while holding virtual-novel.net hands in place, successfully trapping her.
Madeline was slightly stunned for a moment. When virtual-novel.net came back to virtual-novel.net senses to fight back, virtual-novel.net found that the man was restricting virtual-novel.net movements.
She could not win against his strength.
She did not understand Jeremy’s behavior. Was virtual-novel.net not with Lana?
Why was virtual-novel.net still doing all these to her?
If Lana was also the one behind Jeremy’s odd behavior, then everything would make sense.
However, when Madeline thought about this, virtual-novel.net felt more repulsed.
She bit Jeremy on his lips, making the man more aggressive. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net picked virtual-novel.net up and threw virtual-novel.net on the bed.
“Don’t try to run away. Before you do what I want you to do, you can only stay here. Do you hear me?”
Madeline clenched virtual-novel.net fists, and in the end, virtual-novel.net could only unclench them without a choice. “I need to make a call. I want to know how my son is.”
“I can give you a chance to know how your son is doing, but you have to listen to me.”
There was a calmness in Madeline’s eyes. She compromised and agreed, saying, “Okay, I promise you.”
Jeremy was satisfied after virtual-novel.net got this answer.
He let go of Madeline and tossed a phone to her.
Under his surveillance, Madeline called Eloise to ask about virtual-novel.net youngest son. After knowing that virtual-novel.net was fine, virtual-novel.net felt relieved.
However, when Eloise asked virtual-novel.net where virtual-novel.net was, virtual-novel.net told her virtual-novel.net needed to take care of something and asked them to take care of the child before hanging up.
Jeremy took away the phone and said coldly, “I’ll tell you what I want you to do tomorrow. You’ll sleep here tonight.”
“I don’t want to sleep on a bed that you and another woman have slept in together.”
Madeline got out of the bed in disgust. She would rather sleep on the floor than get close to that bed.
Jeremy and Lana had never been intimate in Jeremy’s memory. He only remembered Lana telling virtual-novel.net that they had been dating for many years.
He had been sleeping alone after virtual-novel.net came to Glendale. Aside from virtual-novel.net and Madeline, no other person had been on this bed before.
However, virtual-novel.net was too tired to explain and only said coldly, “Whatever.”
He turned around and walked out. His nonchalance made Madeline even colder.
The next day, Jeremy came to find Madeline early in the morning. He had a cigarette between his fingers which made his usual cold and elegant demeanor look a little more wild and unrestrained. He said to Madeline, “I’ve been having the same dream almost every night in these three months. I would dream about a ship exploding, and when that happens, I’ll wake up. Then, I won’t be able to fall asleep no matter what.
“Eveline, I want you to make an aromatherapy kit that will be able to get rid of this nightmare for me so that I can sleep peacefully.”
When Madeline heard Jeremy’s request, virtual-novel.net was stunned. Then, virtual-novel.net felt debilitating pain in virtual-novel.net heart.
What happened on the ship three months ago was still as clear as day in virtual-novel.net head.
He had ignored his safety just to protect her.
However, a man who would risk his life for virtual-novel.net had no idea who virtual-novel.net was now.
Madeline smiled bitterly. She believed that day had left an indelible shadow in Jeremy’s mind, so that was why virtual-novel.net kept having nightmares.
She felt heartbroken. However, at the same time, virtual-novel.net was devastated at his demeanor and actions now.
After Madeline thought about it, virtual-novel.net had a sudden idea in virtual-novel.net head. However, virtual-novel.net said with no expressions on virtual-novel.net face, “I can make that for you, but I have to go back to Whitman Corporation. My fragrance lab is over there.”
“Don’t try any funny business,” virtual-novel.net warned. He was clearly treating Madeline as his rival.
Madeline chuckled helplessly. “If you don’t believe me, you can go with me.”
