Chapter 831
Madeline felt her heart skipping a beat.
Had Jeremy been awake the entire time? Had he just been pretending to sleep?
Did he hear everything she said just now?
Madeline did not know how to handle what was going on right now, but she realized that Jeremy was only changing his position. He had not been pretending to sleep and did not hear what she said just now.
When she saw this, Madeline felt disappointed, but at the same time, she was also a little scared.
‘Actually, I was hoping that you’d find out the truth.
‘But I’m scared that our daughter will be in danger again if you knew.’
Madeline escaped from Jeremy’s embrace and used all of her might to pull the man down to lie down on the bed.
After she did all of that, Madeline was exhausted. Therefore, she lay down beside Jeremy and fell asleep.
Looking at his gentle sleeping face, Madeline lifted his hand gently and placed it on her stomach. “Jeremy, when I had Jack, I longed for you to believe me. I longed for you to touch my stomach and feel Jack’s existence, but not only did you not believe me, you even yelled at me and ignored me. Can you feel it now? This is our child, and it’s growing in my stomach.”
Her eyes were red and filled with tears as she got closer to him.
“I really hope that you can watch the birth of your child this time. I want you to see how our child looks like as a baby.”
Madeline hoped and closed her eyes as she leaned against Jeremy.
The next day.
When Madeline woke up, she was the only one on the bed.
She did not know where Jeremy went.
After she cleaned herself, she realized that the door of the room was not locked.
She was about to go downstairs when Ken limped into the room with breakfast.
She took the umbrella at the side of the door and walked into the rain.
However, the moment she walked out, Jeremy’s car stopped in front of her.
When he saw Madeline leaving, he got out of the car and walked in front of her with a solemn expression. “Where are you going?”
Madeline let out a sigh of relief when she saw him coming back safe and sound. However, she looked cold on the surface. “I don’t think it’s your business where I want to go.”
Jeremy’s face darkened even more. Then, he held Madeline’s hand and pulled her back to the house.
When Ken saw this, he felt slightly relieved.
If Madeline had left just like that, he would not know what to say to Jeremy.
Jeremy looked at the untouched breakfast and frowned. “Go eat something and don’t try to leave again. I won’t allow you to go back to Felipe.”
After he finished saying that to Madeline, he turned to Ken and said, “Come with me.”
