Jeremy was surprised. He did not know when Madeline came up from behind him.
Madeline was also taken aback because Jeremy’s face was as pale as a sheet of paper.
The two looked at each other and time seemed to stand still at this moment.
Jeremy struggled to suppress the intense smell of blood and the dry itch in his throat. He turned his face away to avoid Madeline’s sight, coughing lightly.
Jeremy’s heart was very flustered at this moment. He was afraid that Madeline would discover that something was wrong with virtual-novel.net and virtual-novel.net would see through everything.
“Maddie, why are you standing there? It’s time for a photo.” Ava’s reminder came from a distance.
Madeline looked at the man who was facing virtual-novel.net from the side and handed over the ID card.
“I’m giving it back to you,” virtual-novel.net said coldly as virtual-novel.net stretched out virtual-novel.net hand to him.
Jeremy clenched his fists, knowing virtual-novel.net could not reach out to Madeline.
The palms of his two hands were stained with blood.
Seeing Jeremy being indifferent, Madeline frowned. “If seeing me makes you bored, why come here to obstruct your view?”
“Maddie.” Ava’s voice came again.
Madeline saw that Jeremy was completely ignoring her—even the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were cold. She raised virtual-novel.net hand all of a sudden and threw the ID card at him.
“Since you’re so disgusted, you can pick it up yourself.”
As virtual-novel.net voice fell, Madeline lifted virtual-novel.net skirt and walked away without any hesitation.
Jeremy’s fingers that were covering his lips gradually tightened as virtual-novel.net crouched down. With his long, blood-stained fingers that were gently trembling, virtual-novel.net picked up the ID card that Madeline had thrown at his feet.
He lifted his bleak eyes, looking at the beautiful image of the woman who was reflected in his pupils. He could not restrain himself from spitting out a big mouthful of blood from his lips.
‘Linnie, I wish you happiness.’
When Madeline left, virtual-novel.net saw Jeremy’s car parked across the road from the church.
She subconsciously glanced out of the car window. She vaguely saw a familiar figure standing at the same place where virtual-novel.net had separated from Jeremy just now.
Madeline found it a little strange, and before virtual-novel.net could think deeper into it, Ryan approached her. “What’s wrong?”
She came back to virtual-novel.net senses and smiled, shaking virtual-novel.net head.
“It’s nothing.” Ryan smiled softly and shook Madeline’s hand.
Madeline smiled and accepted Ryan’s warm care, but virtual-novel.net inevitably thought of Jeremy in virtual-novel.net heart.
She warned herself that virtual-novel.net was already Ryan’s wife, so virtual-novel.net should stop thinking about the man who had cut virtual-novel.net off from him. Yet, virtual-novel.net thoughts remained occupied by Jeremy.
After carrying out the outdoor shooting for the entire afternoon, it was then time to head to the hotel.
Madeline changed into a simple dress, and together with Ryan, they gave a toast to a few relatives and friends.
Ava was not behaving aloof at all and had already drunk several glasses in succession as virtual-novel.net held onto a wine bottle.
Daniel was sitting next to Ava and had advised virtual-novel.net not to drink so much, but Ava instead courteously filled Daniel’s glass with wine while drunkenly patting virtual-novel.net on the shoulder. “Dan, today is a good day for Maddie. Drink more and be happy for her.”
Daniel recalled how Ava had behaved the last time virtual-novel.net got drunk. He could not help but think of the accidental kiss between virtual-novel.net and Ava back then.
As matters stood, only virtual-novel.net knew about that time while Ava knew nothing.
“Dan, what are you thinking about?” Ava scrunched virtual-novel.net drunken eyes and asked Daniel, “Come, have a drink.”
Seeing virtual-novel.net face up-close, Daniel felt hot and somewhat hurriedly took the wine glass before drinking the contents in one gulp.
However, Daniel rarely drank alcohol, so after downing a full glass, virtual-novel.net felt his entire body going warm. His head was a little dizzy now too.
