Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 160

Chapter 160

‘Thanks.’

The word she uttered so softly lingered in his ear. However, it landed heavily on Jeremy’s heart.

When Jeremy saw this stunning face in front of him, he felt as if he had turned into a sculpture. In that split second, he lost all of his senses and consciousness.

He even felt that he might be dreaming.

The beautiful face in front of him was so glaring.

It was so painful!

‘Maddie!’

He could not control himself from screaming out her name in his heart.

His heart that had fallen into a deep slumber for the past three years was abruptly woken up.

Madeline smiled lightly when she saw Jeremy’s reaction.

‘Are you surprised, Jeremy?

‘The ex-wife you despise isn’t dead yet.

‘However, I’m not that Madeline Crawford who loved you so much that she abandoned all self-respect, self-love, and even herself.’

“I’m sorry, Mr. Whitman. I still have some things to take care of, so I’ll get going now.” Madeline retracted her hand and walked past Jeremy elegantly and calmly.

When the warmth was removed from his hand, Jeremy jolted back to his senses.

An extraordinary fragrance invaded his nostrils as he turned around to see Madeline walking toward the side door.

Jeremy did not hesitate and turned around to follow her.

Madeline stopped. She displayed a look of innocence and shock as she blinked slowly. “Mr. Whitman, why are you following me? Why are you holding my wrist?”

Jeremy’s deep eyes were staring into Madeline’s dazed eyes. The night cast a shadow on his features, making them look even more abstruse.

“Madeline, you’re not dead!” he exclaimed as he held Madeline’s wrist tighter.

It was as if Madeline would disappear if he let go of her.

He would not allow her to disappear from his world again.

Madeline looked at Jeremy in confusion. “Mr. Whitman, I don’t know what you’re talking about. My name isn’t Madeline, it’s Vera Quinn.”

Jeremy’s eyes became darker after he heard that. “You are! You are Madeline!”

He stared into her eyes. Even though this face was a clone, he believed there would be no other eyes that looked like those in this world.

Madeline stayed silent for a few seconds after hearing that. Then, she smiled and said, “I heard that Madeline was Mr. Whitman’s cruel and despicable ex-wife. Do I look like her? Did you chase after me because you think your hateful ex-wife has come back to life?”
