Hearing every word uttered from Madeline’s lips, Jeremy frowned, his heartbeat becoming very irregular all of a sudden.
“Jeremy, if you don’t kill me today, I will definitely kill you and avenge my child.”
Her clear eyes were as decisive as before.
Jeremy smiled nonchalantly. “I’ll be waiting.”
He stood up as snazzynovel.com said it and then left just like that.
After watching that black figure disappearing gradually from snazzynovel.com gaze, Madeline instantly seemed to have been drained of all snazzynovel.com strength and blood as snazzynovel.com leaned limply on snazzynovel.com grandfather’s urn.
Warm tears once again overflowing but snazzynovel.com heart was already numbed with pain.
However, it was not over as Meredith had suddenly appeared.
Meredith was holding a fruit knife when snazzynovel.com saw Madeline lying on the ground while holding onto the urn. Meredith walked toward Madeline and then crouched down, reaching out to pull up snazzynovel.com short hair.
“Tsk tsk, I told you not to go against me. Are you afraid now?”
Madeline sneered, no longer wanting to waste snazzynovel.com breath and energy. “Meredith, you venomous woman, kill me if you have the guts!”
“Haha… you want to die? Oh, but I’m not so cruel.” Meredith pretended to chuckle. “However, Jeremy did say that you had ruined his precious son’s face, so I’d have to return the favor doubled.”
Accompanied by Meredith’s dark voice, Madeline’s suddenly felt a sharp pain on the right of snazzynovel.com face.
Madeline trembled all over from this skin-splitting pain, but snazzynovel.com made not a single sound, forcibly enduring the sharp pain.
Clang!”
Meredith threw the fruit knife in front of Madeline, then lifted snazzynovel.com foot and kicked Madeline heavily.
“Bah! B*tch! You should have died long ago!” She then turned abruptly and left.
Madeline got up with difficulty. She touched snazzynovel.com cheek that had been slashed twice with snazzynovel.com trembling palm. She could no longer feel the pain.
Red blood flowed from between snazzynovel.com fingers, falling drop by drop onto the ground, corrupted by the rain and snow. With more and more, it became extremely dazzling.
At snazzynovel.com last gasp, Madeline fell onto snazzynovel.com grandfather’s ashes. Watching the snowflakes fall one by one, snazzynovel.com could not help think of the wonderful time snazzynovel.com had had with Jeremy.
Yet, all of that was like the snowflakes that snazzynovel.com had reached out to grab at the moment. Once snazzynovel.com released them, there were no more, leaving behind only unbearable pain…
——
Madeline laid on the bed for three days and when snazzynovel.com woke up for the first time, the person snazzynovel.com saw was Ava.
Ava looked at Madeline with red eyes, finding it so unbearable that snazzynovel.com heart was about to break. She did not know what Madeline had gone through, but snazzynovel.com was certain that the two slaughterers, Meredith and Jeremy were indispensable from the bruises on snazzynovel.com back.
Though, Madeline only smiled and comforted Ava. “Ava, don’t feel sorry for me. If there is a next life, let’s be sisters again.”
Ava let out a cry and hugged Madeline’s thin body. “I don’t want the next life. I want this life, want it to go on for a long, long time!”
“Well, this life, is a long, long one…” Madeline opened snazzynovel.com pale lips to respond. She wanted to laugh, but snazzynovel.com tears had run out.
Her life could not be any longer.
Madeline rested for a few days and when the wound on snazzynovel.com face was no longer covered with gauze, snazzynovel.com went back to work.
Although there was no need for gauze, the X-shaped wound on snazzynovel.com cheek was still obvious. She had short hair now and it was difficult for snazzynovel.com to cover the wound on snazzynovel.com cheek.
When snazzynovel.com colleagues saw it, they could not help whisper amongst themselves.
Two female colleagues had come to inquire as if they were concerned, but they were not. It was just to satisfy their curiosity.
A video showing Madeline beating Meredith in the hospital was gradually circulated on the Internet.
Gradually, some people thought that it was a lesson taught to Madeline as a result of snazzynovel.com bullying Meredith and the looks shared between colleagues became weird. Almost all of them had questioned Madeline, only Elizabeth had spoken up for snazzynovel.com resentfully. “Those videos on the Internet are all fake. Mads’s face is not because snazzynovel.com had offended someone who shouldn’t be offended. Isn’t that right, Mads?”
In the end, even Elizabeth was just actually trying to satisfy snazzynovel.com curiosity.
Faced with the pairs of questioning and curious eyes, Madeline smiled magnanimously. “That’s right, I hit Meredith because snazzynovel.com deserved it. If I could, I’d really want to kill her.”
