“Linnie.”
The man’s low and soft voice rang out behind virtual-novel.net ears.
Madeline slowly lifted virtual-novel.net sharp yet beautiful eyes. She then saw Jeremy’s narrow eyes that were brimming with emotions in the mirror.
“Linnie.” Jeremy got closer to Madeline, his warm palm holding virtual-novel.net thin wrist tightly.
“Linnie, do you have any secrets? Why are you staying with Carter?”
Madeline lowered virtual-novel.net eyes to look at Jeremy’s hand that was holding hers tightly. Then, virtual-novel.net icy glare looked into Jeremy’s enthusiastic and expectant eyes.
“If I don’t stay with Carter, should I go back to you instead?” Madeline asked with a cold chuckle. She pushed Jeremy’s hand away. “Why did I marry a guy like you back then? Jeremy, I’ve already divorced you. Let me warn you now, stop pestering me.”
After listening to Madeline, Jeremy felt as if his heart had been struck by lightning. In that instant, his heart broke into two pieces.
Warn.
She said virtual-novel.net was warning virtual-novel.net to stop pestering her.
She said how could virtual-novel.net have married a guy like him?
Jeremy knew virtual-novel.net had wronged Madeline before, but virtual-novel.net also knew that it was impossible for Madeline to say these kinds of things to virtual-novel.net now.
This person in front of virtual-novel.net was like a completely different person. The way virtual-novel.net talked and acted was different from what virtual-novel.net knew of her.
‘Is this not Linnie?’
This thought appeared in Jeremy’s head.
No, impossible.
Judging from the skin contact when virtual-novel.net held virtual-novel.net wrist earlier and the feeling virtual-novel.net gave him, virtual-novel.net was 100 percent sure that the person in front of virtual-novel.net was his Linnie.
However, how did Linnie become like this?
Jeremy was stuck in an astonished and heartbroken state while virtual-novel.net watched Madeline leave decisively.
Judging from what virtual-novel.net was wearing, Jeremy was sure that virtual-novel.net was attending this party with Carter tonight.
However, virtual-novel.net would not allow virtual-novel.net to appear on such an occasion with Carter as husband and wife.
Jeremy looked at Madeline’s figure that was getting farther and farther away. He quickly ran behind virtual-novel.net and when virtual-novel.net was least expecting it, virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net up.
Madeline was caught off guard, so when Jeremy carried virtual-novel.net away by the waist, virtual-novel.net struggled with all virtual-novel.net might. “What are you doing? Jeremy, put me down! You scum!”
“Yes, I’m scum, Linnie. You’re right. I did a lot of things that hurt you in the past, but you said you’ll give me another chance to start over.”
“I never said that. Jeremy, you’d better put me down or else…”
“Linnie, there’s no ‘or else’. I don’t know why you’ve become like this but I can tell you with certainty that I’m the man you love the most.”
“Carter is the man I love the most. Put me down now! I want to go back to Carter!”
Madeline’s emphasis felt like tiny needles stabbing into Jeremy’s heart, and the intense pain quickly overwhelmed him. Even so, his grip on Madeline only tightened.
He did not say any more. He brought Madeline to the garage in the underground parking as quickly as virtual-novel.net could.
However, Madeline did not give in just like that. She was still fighting back and struggling.
Inside the dim garage, the sharpness in Madeline’s eyes was still clear. She was glaring at Jeremy and looked even more overbearing than him.
“Jeremy, this is my final warning. Let me go. If not, you’ll get into trouble.”
Jeremy gripped Madeline’s hands that were trying to escape and gently curled the corners of his alluring lips. His eyes looked gentle, yet there was intense confidence in them. “Linnie, I’d rather get into trouble than let you run to another man again.”
