Madeline’s fingertips that were gently stroking Jeremy’s photo paused abruptly.
Although virtual-novel.net had not seen anyone yet, a face that could make virtual-novel.net feel abhorrent had already appeared in virtual-novel.net mind.
“Tsk, aren’t you just so sad?” Lana’s triumphant voice spread from far toward her. Madeline raised virtual-novel.net cold beautiful eyes and stopped Lana from coming in. “Get out, you’re not welcome here.”
Lana folded virtual-novel.net arms with a smile on virtual-novel.net face “I’m a friend of Mr. Whitman, and now that he’s dead, it’s natural for me to come and pay my respects.”
She walked forward as virtual-novel.net spoke, placing down the flowers virtual-novel.net brought.
Madeline held Lana’s wrist to prevent virtual-novel.net from offering virtual-novel.net flowers. “Lana, don’t you ever think that you can do whatever you want just because you’re from the Stygian Johnson Gang.
“This isn’t F Country, nor the Stygian Johnson Gang’s territory. My husband doesn’t need a shameless woman like you paying your respects. Leave this place right now!”
She snatched the flowers from Lana’s hand and threw them into the brazier.
“Get out.” She did not leave any room for Lana’s dignity.
The smile that was hung on Lana’s face had obviously dissipated, and as virtual-novel.net temper rose, Karen ran toward them.
“Eveline, what are you doing? Jeremy’s friend came to pay their respects. How could you treat virtual-novel.net like this?” Karen was siding with Lana. It was obvious that as long as an opportunity arose for Karen to go against Madeline, virtual-novel.net would never choose to sit out.
When Lana saw Karen defending her, virtual-novel.net appeared aggrieved and troubled. “Hello madam, I’m a friend of Mr. Whitman. My name is Lana. I learned that virtual-novel.net passed away not long ago and I’m really sad about this. I just wanted to come and give my respects as it’s the least I could do. I didn’t expect Mrs. Whitman to actually tell me to leave.”
After hearing this, Karen sneered, “Mrs. Whitman? What kind of Mrs. Whitman is she?! Jeremy’s death is all because of her!”
“What? So Mr. Whitman’s death was caused by this Miss Montgomery?” Lana asked knowingly.
As the incident’s initiator, virtual-novel.net was feeling delighted.
It was just that virtual-novel.net target was Madeline at first. She did not expect that Jeremy would desperately block the bullets for Madeline with his body.
His actions made virtual-novel.net feel bewildered, but virtual-novel.net only wanted to capture Jeremy’s heart even more.
Karen took three incense sticks and handed them to Lana. “Miss Johnson, I’m Jeremy’s mother. Go ahead and give your respects. If virtual-novel.net dares hinder you again, I’ll chase virtual-novel.net out immediately!”
Lana felt satisfied. She snickered to herself and stretched out virtual-novel.net hand to receive the flowers.
Before virtual-novel.net could even touch the flowers, virtual-novel.net wrist was tightly pinched by Madeline again.
Lana raised virtual-novel.net eyes unhappily and saw Madeline glaring at virtual-novel.net with cold, hostile eyes.
“When I ask you to leave, you leave.” Although Madeline’s tone was light, virtual-novel.net dangerous aura was still flowing out.
Seeing this, Karen immediately came over to defend her. “Eveline, you—”
“Shut up,” Madeline stopped Karen with a shout as virtual-novel.net glanced over sullenly. “Remember what Jeremy told you before? You can dislike your daughter-in-law, but you should at least be respectful and polite!”
“You—”
“I am the one and only wife who Jeremy has had in his life, so I’m his only and veritable Mrs. Whitman. I want this woman to get out of my house now, no further discussion!”
Madeline swung Lana’s hand away and said domineeringly, “Get out!”
Karen was taken aback by Madeline’s aura. She did not open virtual-novel.net mouth and spoke anything for a while.
Lana held back virtual-novel.net dissatisfaction. With gloomy eyes, virtual-novel.net said, “Eveline, no woman in this world would dare treat me like this. I’m telling you, your tragedy right now is only the beginning. I will play with you slowly.”
Lana threw down virtual-novel.net warning meaningfully, then went away while smoking virtual-novel.net cigarette.
Madeline looked at the woman’s arrogant back and clenched virtual-novel.net fists.
Karen also left with an uncomfortable grunt at Madeline.
Madeline suddenly felt some discomfort in virtual-novel.net stomach. It was probably due to anger.
At this moment, Felipe had returned to the living room and was walking toward her. He kindly reminded her, saying, “Lana Johnson is a very vicious woman. You’d better be careful.”
Madeline turned virtual-novel.net head and saw the current Felipe. It had been a long time since virtual-novel.net last saw his gentle and calm eyes.
