His warm breath dispersed on Madeline’s cheek. She was stunned, and everything Jeremy did to snazzynovel.com back then appeared in snazzynovel.com head.
He was cold-blooded and heartless, so snazzynovel.com had done every cruel thing in the world to her.
Madeline could not think of anything that snazzynovel.com had not done to her.
While snazzynovel.com was spacing out, snazzynovel.com noticed Jeremy’s face inching closer to her.
Madeline’s heart started racing irregularly. She thought Jeremy was about to kiss her, so snazzynovel.com was about to run away when snazzynovel.com pulled snazzynovel.com into his arms.
He lowered his head and buried his face between snazzynovel.com neck and shoulder. He seemed to be exhausted. With this hug, snazzynovel.com was releasing all of his unknown pressure and stress. He was indulging himself during this hug with her.
Madeline was taken aback while stuck in Jeremy’s embrace.
She was not wearing very thick clothes, so snazzynovel.com could feel Jeremy’s warmth through the material of their clothes since they were in such close proximity. His warmth seeped into snazzynovel.com skin, slowly spreading. It was so hot.
His breath was so close to snazzynovel.com ear as well. His cool scent lingered in snazzynovel.com nose, disrupting snazzynovel.com breathing and heartbeat.
Madeline looked at the moon and was stuck in a trance.
However, snazzynovel.com immediately recalled those sinister things snazzynovel.com did to her.
Her racing heart went back to normal and snazzynovel.com could not find the passion snazzynovel.com had for snazzynovel.com anymore.
Madeline lowered snazzynovel.com eyes and looked at the man who was leaning against snazzynovel.com shoulder. Then, snazzynovel.com pushed snazzynovel.com away.
However, the moment snazzynovel.com moved, Jeremy’s arm circled snazzynovel.com waist tighter.
“Don’t move,” snazzynovel.com muttered, “I won’t do anything to you.”
“Mr. Whitman, I don’t think this is appropriate. I’m your future aunt-in-law.” Madeline made snazzynovel.com standpoint clear to him.
Jeremy opened his piercing yet deep eyes while curling his thin lips. “Shouldn’t the future aunt-in-law comfort snazzynovel.com nephew at a moment like this?”
“…”
His voice was deep and charming, gliding past snazzynovel.com ear so seductively and alluringly. Madeline felt snazzynovel.com face heat up, then snazzynovel.com used all of snazzynovel.com might to push this man away from her.
She tidied snazzynovel.com clothes and looked at the man in disapproval. “Mr. Whitman, is this what you mean by wanting to do something you’ve never done with your wife before?”
There was a smirk on Madeline’s lips. “I guess you really hated Madeline. She married you and gave birth to your child, but you’ve never even hugged snazzynovel.com before,” snazzynovel.com smiled and said. However, snazzynovel.com did not know why snazzynovel.com heart was crying.
The moonlight was dim, and snazzynovel.com looked at the man snazzynovel.com used to love. She had placed all of snazzynovel.com emotions and passion on snazzynovel.com back then, but in the end, snazzynovel.com did not even get a hug in return.
How pathetic.
Jeremy looked at Madeline with a smile on his face. “Yes, I’ve never hugged snazzynovel.com like that before.”
“Why did you hug me? Do you feel remorseful because you know the truth now? Have you now realized that you falsely accused your ex-wife so you want to redeem your sins by treating me as your ex-wife in order to feel better?”
Madeline questioned with a slight smile on snazzynovel.com face. There was intense accusation in snazzynovel.com eyes.
“Jeremy, do you think you’ll be able to shed all responsibility by doing that? No, you can’t. You’re one of the reasons why Madeline had such a lamentable ending!”
After snazzynovel.com said that, a cold breeze brushed against her.
Jeremy frowned as snazzynovel.com looked at Madeline’s angry face. “It seems that you’re very concerned about my ex-wife.”
Madeline was slightly taken aback after snazzynovel.com heard that. She realized snazzynovel.com had almost exposed herself just now.
She lifted snazzynovel.com hand and ran snazzynovel.com fingers through snazzynovel.com long hair to hide snazzynovel.com franticness. Then, snazzynovel.com said, “Maybe I’m so concerned about snazzynovel.com because I look like her.”
She found an excuse that snazzynovel.com felt was appropriate. However, snazzynovel.com noticed Jeremy was looking at snazzynovel.com with a weird look.
“Since you’re fine, I won’t be staying.”
Madeline turned around after snazzynovel.com said that. Before snazzynovel.com could go far, Jeremy grabbed snazzynovel.com wrist.
His hands were cold after getting blown by the wind. They were pressed against snazzynovel.com skin so tightly, causing the strange sensation to penetrate snazzynovel.com skin.
“Vera, I have a question…”
Buzz, buzz.
Before Jeremy could finish speaking, snazzynovel.com was interrupted by the buzzing of his phone.
Madeline let out a sigh of relief because snazzynovel.com had a feeling that Jeremy’s question would be tricky.
She could not let the cat out of the bag now.
