Chapter 1193
Madeline could not describe how she was feeling at this moment.
The moment she met Jeremy, her upset heart seemed to instantly calm down. The rhythm of her heartbeat gradually became more relaxed because of this man’s appearance.
On the other hand, Ryan’s mood was completely opposite to that of Madeline’s.
When he was about to declare to everyone that she was his wife, Jeremy had appeared unexpectedly.
Jeremy’s icy gaze glanced over at Ryan before he looked at Madeline once more. His delicate eyes were sweet like warm honey as he said unhurriedly, “Darling, there were barely any parking spaces left. Sorry for being a little late.”
Madeline immediately understood what Jeremy wanted to express. She smiled widely and approached the man’s embrace. “Jeremy, you got here right on time.”
Jeremy looked up with his cold eyes and glanced at the women beside Madeline. “Oh, really? I was worried that if I was a second later, some nosy and idle people would be giving you trouble.”
“…”
“…”
Those women could clearly tell that Jeremy was talking about them.
They had wanted to mock Madeline but did not expect to receive such backlash. They were extremely embarrassed.
Madeline leaned into Jeremy’s arms like a tiny lovable woman and said a little coquettishly, “Jeremy, when you were parking just now, I ran into Mr. Jones and came in with him. But it’s nice to know that these beautiful ladies care so much about you that they would even accuse me of being with Mr. Jones without considering how you’d feel.”
When he saw Jeremy and Ryan, the old man said proudly, “Two of Interpol’s outstanding, young, and promising rare talents!”
The other guests in the banquet hall also leaned over to watch.
The old man patted Jeremy’s shoulder and exclaimed with satisfaction, “I thought that Mr. Whitman was just a rich young man in Glendale, but little did I know, you’re a far-sighted man who did a fantastic undercover job that not everyone could have done.”
He looked at Madeline with admiration and said, “Mrs. Whitman also had to go through a hard task. In order to work with Interpol to complete the undercover mission, she had to bear such unbearable infamy. Such a great and righteous behavior is worthy of praise.”
When Madeline heard that praise, she felt a little bad.
The truth was, as long as she could be with Jeremy, she would not mind facing any hardships.
