He gently held Madeline’s hand, his deep and alluring eyes were guilt ridden.
“If I had remained vigilant at that time, then this horrible thing wouldn’t have happened,” Jeremy said guiltily. “When Hannah caused a scene the other day, virtual-novel.net actions caused ripples that affected the shares of Whitman Corporation and Montgomery Enterprise.”
“If virtual-novel.net continues to make trouble, Linnie, your projects and orders on hand will be terminated because of her. Right now, you have to suffer this grievance. It’s the only way.”
Listening to Jeremy slowly apologizing to her, Madeline smiled magnanimously.
“I was the one who came up with this, so I don’t feel wronged. We must prioritize this. Besides, I don’t think Hannah can impact our relationship in any way. On the contrary, I don’t think virtual-novel.net deserves any sympathy.” Madeline’s eyes revealed a rare icy but beautiful glint.
“She had feelings about you from the beginning. And she’s not a good person, through and through. She can’t say anything about us fooling virtual-novel.net like this now.” Having said that, Madeline sighed a little apologetically.
“On the other hand, Mom misunderstands us. She ran to the house of the maternal side of my family in a fit of rage.”
Jeremy smiled when virtual-novel.net heard that. “It’s been so long, yet virtual-novel.net still doesn’t understand our characters. We finally made it to this day, so why would we break up our relationship to fulfill the wishes of a vicious person?”
“She’ll understand sooner or later.” Just as Madeline finished speaking, a notification sound came from virtual-novel.net phone.
She glanced down, and virtual-novel.net eyes narrowed. “How interesting.”
“What’s wrong?” Jeremy asked, concerned.
Madeline smiled and handed virtual-novel.net phone to him. “Look.”
Jeremy also lowered his head. When virtual-novel.net saw the image on the screen, virtual-novel.net displayed an opposite expression with Madeline. He frowned, evidently displeased.
Madeline noticed Jeremy’s displeasure and virtual-novel.net smiled, unconcerned. “Let’s play along.”
Even though Jeremy was unhappy, virtual-novel.net would still support Madeline as usual. No matter what virtual-novel.net decided, virtual-novel.net would choose to side with her, no questions asked.
An hour later, Madeline and Jeremy returned to the office together.
When they stepped out of the elevator, Madeline spotted Hannah sitting on the sofa by the reception.
When Hannah saw Madeline coming back with Jeremy, virtual-novel.net smiled and walked over to greet them unusually. “Mr. Whitman, are you done with your afternoon tea with her?” Hannah asked with a bright smile.
Jeremy peered at virtual-novel.net indifferently. “Why are you still here?”
Hannah smiled shyly. “I’ve been waiting for you to come back.”
“Waiting for me?” Jeremy’s cold gaze landed on virtual-novel.net expectant face. “What else do you want?”
“Nothing. I just think it’s very boring staying in the villa. Since I’m here, I want to use this opportunity to learn something.”
Hannah expressed virtual-novel.net thoughts and then virtual-novel.net peered at Madeline.
“I found out that the perfume you made is very special and that your laboratory is very beautiful, sol decided to learn perfume making with you.”
Hannah did not sound like virtual-novel.net was negotiating or asking for a favor, virtual-novel.net was demanding this and ordering Madeline instead.
Jeremy’s charming eyebrows furrowed. How would virtual-novel.net agree to Hannah’s request? However, before virtual-novel.net could say anything, Madeline suddenly agreed decisively.
“Okay, you’ll learn fragrance making with me starting right now.”
