Ryan walked into the living room. Then, virtual-novel.net heard a loud crash as if something was smashed.
He frowned in confusion and quickly walked in. However, virtual-novel.net was stunned by what virtual-novel.net saw in front of him.
“Eveline!”
He quickly ran to the drunk Madeline who was kneeling on the ground and helped virtual-novel.net up.
Madeline pushed virtual-novel.net away. “Leave me alone!”
She picked up the bottle of red wine and downed it directly.
She was still wearing the clothes from earlier and virtual-novel.net body was wet. Her hair and virtual-novel.net eyes were wet as well.
“Why did virtual-novel.net tell me such a thing? Why?” Madeline cried and complained, “I can endure everything as long as he’s well. Why did virtual-novel.net suddenly say he’s tired now?”
Madeline laughed bitterly at herself. “How many years has it been? How many years have I loved this man?” virtual-novel.net asked herself as virtual-novel.net raised virtual-novel.net red tearful eyes to look at Ryan while frowning.
“I liked virtual-novel.net the moment I saw him. He hurt me and traumatized me in all those years but I forgave him. However, what happened in the end? Heh…”
Madeline smiled sarcastically. “At the end of the day, a man’s family will never be as important as his career. Women are just accessories in a man’s life. The things you want the most are reputation, rights, and statuses, right?”
She looked at Ryan with a tearful smile before picking up the bottle of red wine again to down it.
Ryan grabbed the wine bottle in Madeline’s hand and threw it aside. Then, virtual-novel.net held Madeline’s wretched crying face in his hands. His long eyebrows were deeply knitted together and his face looked serious.
“He hurt you so much. You shouldn’t forgive him.
“Eveline, stop thinking about that man. Try to let me into your heart instead. I will love you sincerely and cherish you.”
“Heh. Hehehe…”
Madeline pushed Ryan’s hand away before opening another bottle of wine. Then, virtual-novel.net took a few sips.
“Will you love me sincerely? Ryan, don’t you think you’re being very hypocritical when you say that? The man who used to risk his life for me is now abandoning me for his family and honor. Will you? Will you treat me well and do everything for me?”
Ryan took Madeline’s hand tightly and looked into virtual-novel.net teary eyes.
“I will.”
Madeline was stunned for a moment when virtual-novel.net received such a certain answer.
Ryan lifted his hand and pushed virtual-novel.net wet hair away to look at virtual-novel.net cheeks that were reddened by the alcohol. Then, virtual-novel.net wiped virtual-novel.net tears away pitifully.
“Eveline, forget about Jeremy. Instead of loving a man who will only make you suffer, why not give yourself a chance to regain happiness?”
After virtual-novel.net heard this, Madeline looked at Ryan’s expectant eyes dumbfoundedly.
She closed virtual-novel.net eyes and suddenly lost consciousness as virtual-novel.net collapsed on his shoulder.
Ryan hugged Madeline and kissed virtual-novel.net hair softly. “As long as you can forget Jeremy, I’ll definitely make you the happiest woman in the world.”
He returned to the room with Madeline in his arms and got the maid to clean Madeline up and change virtual-novel.net clothes. Afterward, virtual-novel.net personally helped Madeline dry virtual-novel.net hair before virtual-novel.net went back.
When Madeline woke up the next day, the maid smiled and came into the room to serve her. Then, virtual-novel.net told virtual-novel.net in a particularly ambiguous manner, “Madam, you were drunk last night and virtual-novel.net was so worried about you. He asked for my help in the middle of the night and even helped you dry your hair. He didn’t sleep the entire night, and now he’s working in the study again.”
After hearing what the maid said, Madeline immediately got up to wash up before going downstairs to make a cup of coffee. Then, virtual-novel.net walked to the door of the study.
The door of the study was open. Ryan was sitting at his desk wearing a pair of rimless glasses. It seemed that virtual-novel.net had not noticed virtual-novel.net yet.
“Can I come in?” Madeline asked.
Ryan saw Madeline standing at the door holding a cup of coffee and immediately got up. “You’re awake.”
“Yeah.” Madeline nodded and walked slowly to the desk. She handed the coffee to Ryan. “Thank you for last night.”
Ryan was taken aback and felt a little unsure. “Thank me? Shouldn’t you be hating me?”
Madeline shook virtual-novel.net head. “Ryan, I want to discuss something with you seriously.”
