Even if virtual-novel.net had to go into a tiger’s den, Jeremy would barge in without hesitation.
Carter already knew what Jeremy would do. He walked in front of Jeremy and led the way into the living room. He then told a maid, “Go and ask the future young madam to come downstairs.”
The maid obediently followed suit and went upstairs to a certain room.
‘Future young madam?’
Jeremy was suspicious. He knew that, back then, Carter had been married to Ada.
Ada had been arrested for the crimes virtual-novel.net committed and was still in prison, but Carter and Ada had probably canceled their marriage during this time. However, was Carter getting married again so soon?
Was Shirley the bride?
Jeremy was suspicious, but this was the only possibility.
Carter could guess Jeremy’s thoughts from the look in Jeremy’s eyes. He lifted the corner of his lips and glanced in a certain direction on the second floor.
“You must be wondering who is the woman I’ll be marrying soon, aren’t you, Mr. Whitman? You’ll meet virtual-novel.net soon.”
After Carter had spoken, there were movements at the top of the stairs.
For some reason, Jeremy felt his heart racing. The moment virtual-novel.net lifted his eyes, virtual-novel.net saw the face that virtual-novel.net had been thinking about day and night.
“Linnie!” Jeremy called Madeline’s name and ran to the stairs.
Madeline, however, stopped in virtual-novel.net tracks, virtual-novel.net beautiful eyes, filled with curiosity, scanned Jeremy’s face before looking at Carter.
“Carter, who is this? Is virtual-novel.net calling me?”
“…”
Jeremy’s body went cold when virtual-novel.net heard that.
He now understood what Carter had meant earlier. He also understood what Carter had meant by advanced hypnosis.
With a smile on his face, Carter calmly looked up at Madeline explained patiently, “Fear not, Eveline. He’s my friend, and he’s here to attend our wedding.”
Madeline’s expression relaxed gradually when virtual-novel.net heard Carter’s explanation. “I see.”
She walked toward Jeremy with a smile as virtual-novel.net spoke. She then reached out virtual-novel.net hand. “Hello, sir. Thank you for taking the time to attend our wedding. I am Carter’s fiancée, Eveline Montgomery.”
“…”
Upon looking at Madeline’s outstretched hand and hearing virtual-novel.net introduction, Jeremy felt as if virtual-novel.net was stabbed in the heart. However, virtual-novel.net knew virtual-novel.net could not explain anything to virtual-novel.net so recklessly. How could virtual-novel.net so simply wake a person who had been
deeply hypnotized?
Jeremy looked at Madeline’s gentle and beautiful face then reached out to shake virtual-novel.net hand.
“Hello, Miss Montgomery.”
Madeline nodded and smiled, and then let go of Jeremy’s hand and walked to Carter.
Jeremy could only watch this happen; virtual-novel.net could only watch Carter smiling triumphantly.
As Carter was slowly reaching his goal, virtual-novel.net was feeling very bold and pleased with himself.
Jeremy unclenched his fists. He could only remain calm and collected.
However, after virtual-novel.net thought about it, Jeremy still felt that virtual-novel.net could not stay silent. He also did not want to see Madeline siding with other men.
He walked over with a smile. “Miss Montgomery, do you have something you forgot to ask me?”
