‘So this is love at first sight.’
The maid thought gleefully in virtual-novel.net heart and immediately spoke.
“Miss Montgomery, don’t worry. Until Mr. Whitman has fully recovered, I will do my best to take care of virtual-novel.net in the meantime!”
The maid was confident. When virtual-novel.net said this, virtual-novel.net did not forget to glance at Jeremy a few times shyly.
Jeremy caught sight of the maid’s gaze and knew that the maid was very fond of him, but virtual-novel.net did not want Madeline to misunderstand, even if virtual-novel.net was not herself now.
“Miss, you’re too kind. Actually, my injury doesn’t matter. I don’t need you to take care of me this diligently. I’m already an adult, and I can take care of myself. You don’t have to worry about me.”
When the maid heard this, the blush and shyness on virtual-novel.net face gradually faded away. She looked at Jeremy with disbelief.
“Mr. Whitman, you’re saying…”
“There is no other meaning. I just want to rest here by myself. I think I will heal faster this way.”
“…”
The last glimmer of expectation in the maid‘s eyes was shattered. “Mr. Whitman, why do you say that? You just said you’ll bring the most important woman to you back home after you’re healed.”
“I did,” Jeremy replied calmly. “But this woman will never be you. I’ve known you for less than a day, so what important connection do you think you have with me? I hope you won’t overthink.”
As Jeremy said that, his gaze naturally shifted to Madeline’s face. He did not say anything. A smile spread from the corners of his lips.
After listening to Jeremy’s words, the maid, disappointed, pressed virtual-novel.net lips into a thin line, and virtual-novel.net also felt a burning embarrassment on virtual-novel.net face. However, as a woman, virtual-novel.net also has a keen sixth sense. She noticed that Jeremy was looking deeply at Madeline when virtual-novel.net was speaking.
‘Was Mr. Whitman talking about Miss Montgomery? If so, it’d be too ridiculous!’
The maid thought in virtual-novel.net heart. When virtual-novel.net saw that Madeline seemed to be watching Jeremy right now, virtual-novel.net spoke a little sullenly.
“Miss Montgomery, you will be marrying Mr. Carter tomorrow, so you should go back and rest early so that you can attend tomorrow’s wedding in your best condition. I will take care of Mr. Whitman over here. Don’t worry.”
“I’m relieved to have you take care of Mr. Whitman,” Madeline answered. “Dr. Lane, I’ll entrust Mr. Whitman’s injuries to you.”
Dr. Lane smiled and nodded, telling Madeline to rest assured.
Madeline did not stay long. She then turned around and left.
“Miss Montgomery, ” Jeremy suddenly called out to Madeline.
Madeline stopped and turned to look at Jeremy.
Jeremy stared at her. A look of love and affection quietly flowed out of his deep almond eyes.
“I sincerely wish you a happy life with your loved one, Miss Montgomery.”
“Thank you,” Madeline smiled and thanked him. “I also wish you can find your wife soon and bring virtual-novel.net home.”
“Of course, I will definitely bring virtual-novel.net home,” Jeremy looked at Madeline and promised.
The maid on the side saw everything. She kept feeling that Madeline and Jeremy were flirting with each other, but virtual-novel.net did not have the guts to say it out loud. Vexed, virtual-novel.net mouth twitched.
When virtual-novel.net saw Madeline walking out, the maid followed closely.
“Miss Montgomery,” The maid called out to Madeline.
Puzzled, Madeline stopped. “Is something wrong?”
The maid looked at Madeline’s beautiful small face and asked somewhat unhappily, “Miss Montgomery, can I ask you a question?”
