Looking at the confusion on Madeline’s face, Eloise held virtual-novel.net hand preciously. “Silly daughter, the reason is simple. It’s because virtual-novel.net loves you.”
‘It’s because virtual-novel.net loves you.’
The words that reached virtual-novel.net ears fell onto virtual-novel.net heart like strange needles.
“Three months ago, on the day before you were prepared to leave Glendale, I actually went to look for Jeremy.” Eloise recalled the situation back then. “I told virtual-novel.net that you were leaving for F Country with Felipe the next day and hoped that virtual-novel.net would stop you. But virtual-novel.net just told me indifferently that not bothering and not pestering you was the last thing virtual-novel.net could do for you.”
Not bothering and not pestering her…
Madeline chewed on those six words as if virtual-novel.net was gradually understanding Jeremy’s distant behavior toward virtual-novel.net now.
He had done it on purpose?
Purposely alienating her, treating virtual-novel.net coldly, and drawing a clear line with virtual-novel.net just to not let virtual-novel.net know that virtual-novel.net was seriously injured because of virtual-novel.net so that virtual-novel.net would not bother virtual-novel.net anymore?
“I don’t know how much one person has to love another to do this, but I think Jeremy did it.” Eloise sighed silently, raising virtual-novel.net eyes to observe the changes in Madeline’s expression.
In fact, virtual-novel.net noticed that Madeline also cared for Jeremy.
Now that Madeline could not even board the plane because of Jeremy, it was the best proof.
……
Madeline stayed in Glendale again, so naturally Felipe did not go back as well.
On the way back to the villa, Felipe received a call from Felicity. Felicity told virtual-novel.net that virtual-novel.net met Madeline in front of Jeremy’s house not long ago.
Although virtual-novel.net knew that Jeremy was now consciously distancing himself from Madeline, virtual-novel.net realized that Madeline cared about Jeremy.
Felipe looked at Lilian who was sitting beside virtual-novel.net playing. The corner of his thin lips lifted.
“Lilian.”
“Dad.”
“Good girl.” Felipe smiled and caressed Lily’s head, a subtle smile appearing in his slender phoenix eyes.
It seemed that virtual-novel.net needed to do something more.
Night fell.
Jeremy was alone in his room, thinking about what had happened this morning.
Madeline’s sudden appearance had caught virtual-novel.net off guard.
He had smiled forcefully and pretended to be free and easy, but virtual-novel.net did not have the courage to look back when virtual-novel.net called virtual-novel.net ‘Miss Montgomery’.
She was clearly standing in front of virtual-novel.net at such a close distance, but it seemed that virtual-novel.net was across mountains and rivers, extremely far away.
He stroked the wedding ring on his ring finger to comfort himself.
The phone beside virtual-novel.net suddenly vibrated, and virtual-novel.net picked up the Bluetooth headset to answer.
Felicity’s gentle voice sounded from the other end. “Mr. Whitman, 7 PM tomorrow is a good time for psychological intervention. I hope you can come over for psychological treatment on time.”
“Got it,” Jeremy replied coldly and hung up the phone.
He raised his dull eyes and looked ahead. Only Madeline’s appearance was clear and profound in the dark void.
He thought about it all night.
The next evening, Madeline drove to the villa.
She was walking in when virtual-novel.net happened to see Karen walking out.
Karen’s face instantly fell upon seeing Madeline. Her tone was extremely unfriendly as virtual-novel.net said, “Madeline, why are you here? Have you not hurt Jeremy enough? Do you want our whole family to have no peace before you’ll be happy?”
Madeline did not want to argue with Karen. She calmly opened virtual-novel.net mouth and said, “I came looking for Jeremy to discuss something.”
“There’s nothing to discuss!” Karen refused. “Jeremy became blind because of you and you still don’t want to let virtual-novel.net go? When will you be satisfied?”
