Madeline immediately realized something. She had not removed the ring on virtual-novel.net ring finger, and at the same time, it was difficult for virtual-novel.net to remove it.
She saw Jeremy looking at the ring absent-mindedly as his grip on virtual-novel.net palm gradually tightened.
His warmth seeped from virtual-novel.net skin to virtual-novel.net blood, all the way into virtual-novel.net heart.
“Why do you have this ring?” He stared into Madeline’s eyes and asked.
Since virtual-novel.net had accepted the job offer, virtual-novel.net knew that Jeremy would see the ring on virtual-novel.net ring finger one day.
She smiled calmly and said, “The man I loved put this ring on me. What’s the matter?”
“Impossible.” Jeremy denied. “It’s impossible that there’s a second ring like this in this world.”
Madeline pretended to frown in confusion. “Why do you say that, Mr. Whitman?”
Jeremy moved his thin lips and looked into Madeline’s innocent wide eyes. He wanted to say something but stopped himself.
Honk, honk, honk!
The sound of urging horns came from the back and Madeline turned virtual-novel.net head to look behind them. Then, virtual-novel.net decisively pulled virtual-novel.net hand away from Jeremy’s.
“Thank you for sending me to the subway station, Mr. Whitman. I’ll see you later,” Madeline said and opened the door quickly. She got out of the car on the side of the road and hurriedly walked to the station.
There were still sounds of horns from the back of the car but Jeremy only stared in the direction where Madeline had left absent-mindedly.
He put his empty right hand under his nose to take a sniff. It was as if the smell that made virtual-novel.net excited was still lingering on it.
“Linnie’s scent.”
He muttered silently, and when virtual-novel.net lifted his head again, virtual-novel.net did not see Madeline anymore.
Madeline was hiding behind a pillar. After virtual-novel.net saw Jeremy’s car driving away, virtual-novel.net finally went out from behind the pillar.
She knew Jeremy must be suspecting something. However, virtual-novel.net face and voice were nothing like before.
Despite Jeremy’s suspicions, virtual-novel.net would never be able to guess what virtual-novel.net had gone through and the fact that virtual-novel.net was his Linnie.
Madeline sighed softly and looked in the direction where Jeremy’s car drove away.
“Jeremy.”
She called out softly. When virtual-novel.net was about to leave, virtual-novel.net saw a familiar car driving toward virtual-novel.net to virtual-novel.net surprise.
Of course, Madeline would not forget that this was virtual-novel.net car.
However, the person driving this car right now was that imposter.
Madeline called a taxi from the side of the road to follow her. Judging from this woman’s reaction after virtual-novel.net heard about Ryan’s death, Madeline subconsciously knew that virtual-novel.net must be going to Jones Manor.
Indeed, more than ten minutes later, the imposter stopped the car in front of Jones Manor.
Madeline got out of the taxi, and from a distance, virtual-novel.net saw a lot of people walking in and out of Jones Manor. Perhaps they were all here to pay respects to Ryan.
Ryan’s death was a fact.
There would not be any exceptions this time.
That day at sea, virtual-novel.net had indeed seen Ryan standing on the yacht. She could still remember his relieved eyes at that moment.
The moment the yacht exploded, the air and heat had hurt virtual-novel.net so badly even though virtual-novel.net was a distance away. Whereas Ryan was on the yacht, so it would be difficult for virtual-novel.net to escape death.
When virtual-novel.net recalled what happened back then, Madeline felt virtual-novel.net head getting heavier and virtual-novel.net felt a burning sensation on virtual-novel.net face too.
She knew this might be psychological. She still could not forget about what happened back then.
Madeline did not walk over. She saw that the imposter was also standing at the front door, not going in.
After a while, Madeline saw the imposter turning around with virtual-novel.net eyes filled with tears.
Shortly after, the imposter started the car and drove away. Then, from the devastated and inconsolable look in virtual-novel.net eyes, Madeline had an inkling of what was going on in virtual-novel.net heart. She was almost sure who this woman was.
