Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 790

Chapter 790

“Eveline, why did you come alone? Although it’s not the first time you and Jeremy are getting married, today is still the important day when you return home after your marriage. Why did he let you come alone?”

Madeline’s heart hurt a little, but she laughed indifferently. “It doesn’t matter whether he comes or not. It’s not like I really want to be married to him.”

“…” Eloise’s smiling face stiffened slightly. She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion and said, “Eveline, what are you talking about?”

Madeline stared blankly, absent-minded. As she was about to speak, she suddenly heard familiar footsteps walking hurriedly toward the entrance.

She clenched her fingers, turned her back to the hallway, and said indifferently, “What I mean to say is that the reason I married Jeremy is just to get my revenge on him. I’ve never actually considered starting over with him.”

She said those words contemptuously while her tone became duller.

“Such a man who humiliated me and made me suffer during my best years, how is it even possible for me to still like him earnestly? Hmph! I’m just playing with him.”

After hearing these words, Eloise could not believe it and replied, “Why? Eveline, didn’t you…” While she was speaking halfway, she noticed a figure in sight. “Jeremy?!”

Eloise shouted the name while looking toward the entrance.

Madeline’s heart skipped a beat, but she still appeared calm.

Sure enough, she had not mistakenly recognized his footsteps.

Madeline pretended to only then realize his presence. She got up as if she did not care for him at all and sneered softly at the frowning man.

“Since you’ve clearly heard it, let me reveal the truth to you.”

She walked up to him confidently. “Jeremy, I don’t have any feelings for you anymore. The one I love now is Felipe. My purpose for marrying you is to just play with your feelings. Do you understand?”

Jeremy looked at the cold and beautiful face in front of him. As his heart tightened, he said, “No.”

However, the moment she turned around, her eyes turned wet.

Yet from the sight of her back, she appeared to be free and easy in Jeremy and Eloise’s eyes.

As she returned to the room, she leaned against the wall, seemingly licking her wounds alone.

‘I’m sorry.

‘For Lillian’s safety, I have no choice but to do this.

‘Mom, I’m sorry.’

Madeline bit her lip tightly and raised her hand to wipe away the tears. When she was about to go to the bathroom and wash her face, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open. Jeremy’s resolute and cold face was instantly reflected in her wet, scarlet eyes.
