Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 820

Chapter 820

‘But how could you know about it, Jeremy? That time, I chased you away just to save you.

‘Now, you think that I’ve changed my mind and I’m making fun of you.’

She touched the name on the card, smiling with her eye reddened.

“Jeremy, you’ll surely be happy if you know that Lilian is still alive.”

After having these painful thoughts, Madeline picked up her pencil once again and drew all her thoughts into the design.

On the next day, she submitted the design to Jeremy.

A long time had passed, but he still did not reply. This felt just like those days back then when he used to ignore her.

When it was almost evening, Madeline finally received Jeremy’s reply. In his reply, he mentioned his dissatisfaction and requested her to create a new design.

Following Jeremy’s idea, Madeline constructed a new design. However, even after editing it a few times, Jeremy was still not satisfied. He emphasized to her he was extremely busy and did not wish for her to submit such low-quality designs to him as it would only waste his precious time having to go through all the drafts.

Madeline felt that Jeremy was intentionally trying to trouble her. She made up her mind, packed up her iPad and drawing papers, and headed straight to Jeremy’s current office.

It was a company that Jeremy set up using his name. The building was near Whitman Corporation. After crossing a few streets, she arrived at his office.

She strolled to the front desk and introduced herself politely. “I’m a designer here to help Mr. Whitman design his wedding rings. This is my name card. I’ve already notified Mr. Whitman that I’m here to discuss the design with him. Could you please forward this message to him?”

“Alright, please wait a moment.” The lady at the front desk took Madeline’s name card and walked into Jeremy’s office.

Soon, the lady returned. “I’m sorry, Miss Montgomery. Mr. Whitman is currently having a live meeting. If you’re not in a hurry, you can wait here for a moment.”

“Alright, I’ll just wait here then.”

While staring at the clock, Madeline sat quietly and waited.

Jeremy was sitting in his office, staring at the CCTV tapes of the hall in a carefree manner.

Madeline appeared on the screens. She was sitting in the hall, waiting endlessly.

Madeline went up to the front desk again, but the answer was still the same. Jeremy was still in a meeting, so she could only wait.

In fact, Jeremy was not even busy at all. The entire time Madeline was waiting in the hall, Jeremy was staring at her through the CCTV…

Without her realizing it, Madeline dozed off and there was a blanket over her.

It was past six in the evening. The lady at the front desk had long ago left her workplace.

She did not expect to have waited for the entire afternoon.

Madeline got up, about to head in to find Jeremy. As soon as she spun around, Jeremy came out from his office.

She walked over to him with a serious look. “Mr. Whitman, are you done with your meeting? Can we talk about the design?”

Jeremy’s disdainful gaze swiped past Madeline’s face. “My fiancée is waiting for me to have a candlelight dinner. I’m not free at the moment. If you don’t find it troublesome, you can continue waiting here. After I’m done with dinner, I’ll be free.” He then walked past her.

Madeline stared at his back, then caught up to him. “I’ve drawn so many designs but none of it is up to your satisfaction. I’ve waited for you for an entire afternoon and you’re just going to leave like this? Jeremy Whitman, are you kidding me?”
