Chapter 255
“Go ahead, Mr. Whitman.” Madeline smiled calmly. “I want to know what you’re going to announce as well.”
Jeremy curled his seductive lips. “You’ll know soon enough,” he said before looking at Felipe who was standing behind Madeline. Then, he turned around and faced the crowd as well as the cameras held by media personnel.
Meredith realized that perhaps Jeremy was going to announce he was breaking off his marriage to her. Her heart started racing as she grabbed Jeremy’s arm frantically.
“Jeremy, listen to me. That video is fake. Don’t believe it! Don’t make the announcement for that, please? I can’t be without you. Please don’t leave me…”
Her voice was so soft that it was barely audible, but Jeremy could hear her clearly.
Jeremy listened to Meredith’s pleads and lowered his deep, narrow eyes. “You don’t have to explain anything to me. If it’s about that video, I can tell you that I saw it three years ago.”
“W-What?” Meredith’s face was white while her eyes were huge.
He saw that video three years ago?
What?
However, he never mentioned anything about it!
Which meant that he was still siding with her!
When she thought about this, Meredith regained some confidence.
“Jeremy, if that’s the case, that must mean you still trust me. Then please, don’t make the announcement for that, okay? I can’t be without you…” She pleaded softly. There was a pitiful expression on her gorgeous face.
Jeremy looked at her face and her eyes. The image of Linnie appeared in his head all of a sudden.
After a few seconds, he pulled his arm away from Meredith and faced the crowd again.
Everyone, I would like to announce that my marriage with the daughter of the Montgomeries is now cance—”
Thud!
“Mer! Meredith!”
When Jeremy was about to say the most important word, Meredith unexpectedly collapsed in front of him.
…
Half an hour later.
Madeline put on a coat and walked into the hospital in front of her.
When she walked into the inpatient department, she saw Sean hurriedly walking into the elevator.
His face was filled with worry, and it was obvious that he was worried about Meredith.
However, Meredith was only pretending to pass out earlier. Madeline had seen too much of this already. It was just that these people would choose to believe her no matter what.
Even her birth parents doted on Meredith.
Madeline came to the corridor outside of Meredith’s room. When she turned the corner, she saw Jeremy walking out of the room
His resolute and handsome face looked cold, but there was also worry in his eyes. It seemed that he was worried about Meredith as well.
