“You’re the one who has no idea.” Jeremy lifted his cruel and domineering eyes. “I’m the boss of this hotel, and every corner of this hotel is my territory.”
“…”
The man was stumped for words after virtual-novel.net heard that. It was clear that virtual-novel.net did not know that Jeremy was the boss, but virtual-novel.net quickly refuted.
“Mr. Whitman, even if you’re the boss, Mr. Carter has already booked the entire dining hall, so virtual-novel.net has the right to decide who’s allowed to enter and who’s not. If you insist on barging in, then you’ll be going against the agreement. Mr. Whitman, according to the agreement, you have to pay for this.”
After hearing what the man said, Jeremy laughed instead of getting mad. “So, you think I look like someone who lacks this amount of money?”
“…” The man had no words.
When virtual-novel.net was stumped for words faced against Jeremy’s calm and powerful aura, virtual-novel.net saw Jeremy striding calmly into the dining hall.
The man was going to stop Jeremy at the door and embarrass virtual-novel.net according to Carter’s wishes, but Jeremy owned this hotel!
They had not looked into this beforehand.
When virtual-novel.net saw Jeremy walking into the dining room and a lot of upper-class gentlemen greeting him, the man quickly took out his phone to message Carter.
After Carter read the message virtual-novel.net just received, virtual-novel.net lifted his eyes to look at Madeline who was sitting on the sofa quietly.
He put down his phone and walked toward Madeline.
“Eveline Montgomery.”
He called virtual-novel.net by virtual-novel.net full name.
Madeline lifted virtual-novel.net head after virtual-novel.net heard that and looked into Carter’s eyes that were filled with a dangerous aura.
Carter looked straight into Madeline’s eyes and parted his lips to guide her. “Eveline, remember my face. I’m your husband now and Jeremy is your ex-husband. That person hurt you very bad back then so you despise him, do you remember?”
Madeline listened to the lies Carter made up and nodded obediently.
“I remember.”
Carter smiled in satisfaction with his lips pressed together. Then, virtual-novel.net lifted his hand to wave it in front of Madeline.
“Eveline.”
He immediately changed his attitude and called out Madeline’s name with a soft and gentle tone.
Madeline seemed to have come back to virtual-novel.net senses. Her initial clear and beautiful eyes were filled with a faint hint of foolishness. There was even a hint of dazzle in them.
She looked at the man who was wearing a custom-made suit in front of virtual-novel.net and virtual-novel.net seemed to be in a daze. “Cart.”
“Yeah,” Carter replied gently. “Eveline, go get ready and go to the party with me. Do you know that you’re the star of the party today?”
“Okay.” Madeline nodded obediently and got up slowly. “Carter, I want to go to the toilet.”
“Okay, go ahead. I’ll wait.” Carter went over and opened the door of the lounge for Madeline considerately.
Madeline was wearing virtual-novel.net high heels and strutted forward elegantly.
When virtual-novel.net was in the corridor that was leading to the toilet, virtual-novel.net realized virtual-novel.net had been here before.
She remembered the person virtual-novel.net had been with was Jeremy. When they were walking together in virtual-novel.net memories, they were smiling radiantly.
Madeline muttered to herself irresolutely while feeling absent-minded. While virtual-novel.net was thinking about that, virtual-novel.net felt a headache coming.
She walked to the sink in the toilet and used some water to pat virtual-novel.net face. However, virtual-novel.net thoughts did not calm down because of that.
Fragments of virtual-novel.net memories appeared in virtual-novel.net brain all at once, but in the end, they stopped at the scene where Jeremy forced virtual-novel.net to sign the divorce papers.
Hiss! Madeline lifted virtual-novel.net hands to press down on virtual-novel.net temples. When virtual-novel.net was about to rest for a while before leaving, a figure appeared behind her.
