Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 502

Chapter 502

“Get out! Go! I don’t want to see you again!”

Madeline pushed the man out while in a daze and closed the door behind him.

Leaning against the door, she took a deep breath and looked downward, realizing that her shirt had been unbuttoned.

Who knew what would have happened between them if she had not slapped him.

Her rationality seemed to have been devoured by his kisses and quiet apologies.

Madeline gripped her open collar in relief that she had not given in to the man again.

…

Madeline brought Jack to the outskirts to play over the weekend and found herself calmed by the fact that Jeremy had not appeared before her again.

The day may have been chilly, but her heart was warm.

Jackson’s innocent smile gave her comfort while it also made her heart clench.

There was hardly anything happy in her memories.

The only memory she had was of the day she married Jeremy. For a moment, she had been truly looking forward to the future and felt truly happy.

“Look at my little kite, Mommy. It’s flying so high up,” the child chirped in an elated tone.

Madeline smiled warmly. “Good job, Jack.”

“Can we fly a big kite when Daddy comes back from work, Mommy?” Jackson asked hopefully, “Why aren’t you saying anything, Mommy?”

Madeline immediately replied, “Anything you want, Jack.”

“Yay!” Jack clapped his hands joyfully.

Madeline smiled, then her mind came up with memories of Jeremy’s crazed kisses the other night.

Madeline was shocked to see Diana also in court and with the court police watching over her.

Court began soon enough and Meredith was brought out. While she had washed up, there was no covering up the hollowness and spots on her face.

All that was once arrogant and bright about her face was now downcasted and ashen.

Meredith’s eyes immediately fell on Madeline who had Eloise and Sean sitting by her sides to defend her when she was called up. She balled her fists and glared enviously at Madeline.

Looking around the auditorium and realizing that Jeremy was not present, Meredith began to scream and shout, “I’m innocent! I didn’t kill Brittany Montgomery! She’s the one who killed Brittany! This woman!”

She pointed at Madeline.

“Your honor, this is the woman who killed Brittany Montgomery. Brittany was my best friend, so how could I have killed her? I’ve been framed! I have proof that she was the one who killed Brittany! I have proof!”

Meredith yelled, which caused Diana to join in.

“So it was you who killed my Brittany, Madeline Crawford! How could you be living a life of impunity, you murderer?! I can’t believe my father even took care of you like you were his own granddaughter, you damned b*tch! Give me my Brittany back!”
