Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 54

The little guy turned around as he probably heard the sound of footsteps approaching. His cute and blank face was facing Madeline now. His bright and clear eyes were like glazed tiles as they blinked and stared at Madeline.

The spark of hatred in Madeline’s heart seemed to be extinguished in an instant. Then, it was replaced by unspeakable love and kindness.

Tears stung the corner of her eyes and she suddenly had an urge to cry.

‘If my baby’s still here, she would be as cute as him too.’

After all, Jeremy was so outstanding. His offspring who inherited his genes would surely be as good-looking.

Madeline bent over and stroked his delicate, cute face. “What’s your name, honey?”

The little guy blinked and said adorably, “My mommy and daddy call me Jack.”

‘Mommy and daddy’.

Those words hurt Madeline.

Her baby should have her mommy and daddy as well, but now…

“Maddie, what are you trying to do again? You can do anything to me but please don’t hurt my and Jeremy’s son!”

Meredith’s screaming sounded unusually exaggerated. In addition to that, she especially emphasized that this was her and Jeremy’s son.

Madeline had never thought about doing anything to this innocent child. When she heard what Meredith screamed, she wanted to laugh.

Maybe she should really learn some lessons on how to be cruel from this woman.

“Mommy.” The little guy ran over immediately.

She glanced at him indifferently and passed by him without stopping.

Jeremy frowned and reached out to grab Madeline’s arm.

“Where are you going, Mrs. Whitman?” He parted his lips, his tone filled with puzzlement.

Madeline stopped and noticed Meredith’s face turning darker and darker from the corner of her eye. She pursed her pink lips and smiled at Jeremy.

“What do you think, darling? It’s already so late. Of course, I’m going home.”

Madeline smiled pretentiously, and then she saw a subtle glint in Jeremy’s eyes. The man let go of her hand when she was not sure what it was.

“Wait for me in the car. I’ll come right away.”
