Rose had heard Jeremy and Meredith’s conversation earlier, but snazzynovel.com did not expect it to get exposed so quickly.
She comforted Meredith, saying, “Mer, you can’t admit defeat now. You have to get the position of Mrs. Whitman! Not only is it a symbol of status, but it’ll also give you limitless wealth!”
Rose’s eyes were filled with greed. There was a hint of savageness in snazzynovel.com eyes. “I’ll take care of that Vera Quinn for you.”
After venting for a while, Meredith touched snazzynovel.com wounded face while snazzynovel.com gritted snazzynovel.com teeth.
“Of course, I won’t admit defeat so easily! I’ll kill anyone who dares to steal my man away from me!”
Her eyes were filled with venom. Sinister ruses were starting to appear behind snazzynovel.com eyes.
“Hmph, Vera Quinn, I’ll let my mother teach you a lesson. But it’s not you, Mom. It’s Eloise!”
…
Jeremy drove away from the hospital and arrived at a location somewhere.
During his drive here, snazzynovel.com felt like a puppet with no senses nor thoughts. He drove apathetically while his brain was only filled with what Meredith said just now.
She was the one who ruined Madeline’s face.
Heh.
Jeremy was expressionless, but snazzynovel.com was smiling sarcastically deep down.
After a while, his limited edition sports car stopped in front of an old apartment.
Jeremy went upstairs and into a unit.
This was Madeline’s house before snazzynovel.com passed. He had bought it for double the price.
Three years had passed and all traces of snazzynovel.com were now gone.
However, as if it was an unhealthy obsession, snazzynovel.com was still reluctant to leave this place. He kept everything here intact. Whenever snazzynovel.com missed Madeline, snazzynovel.com would either go to the cemetery and talk to himself in front of the tombstone, or snazzynovel.com would come here—even though snazzynovel.com knew that everything snazzynovel.com did was futile.
It was too late.
Looking at the empty house, snazzynovel.com remembered that this was where snazzynovel.com first saw Madeline with the scars on snazzynovel.com face.
It was also here where snazzynovel.com collapsed onto the floor and desperately pleaded with him. However, snazzynovel.com had mocked snazzynovel.com for playing the victim to make snazzynovel.com pity her. Then, snazzynovel.com even threw all of snazzynovel.com painkillers into the toilet before ripping apart the gauze that was covering the wound on snazzynovel.com face.
‘Maddie, it must have hurt a lot, right?
‘I, Jeremy Whitman, was so cruel to you.’
He chuckled in self-mockery. Then, snazzynovel.com read Madeline’s diary again.
He could only find the evidence of Madeline’s love for snazzynovel.com between the lines of snazzynovel.com handwriting. It was only in this way could snazzynovel.com find some sense of comfort even if it was temporary or fake.
Jeremy stayed here for the entire day and even spent the night here. He ignored all of the calls snazzynovel.com received during this period.
When snazzynovel.com was about to leave, snazzynovel.com received a call from Whitman Manor.
He thought the old master needed to tell snazzynovel.com something. When snazzynovel.com answered the call, snazzynovel.com heard his mother berating snazzynovel.com furiously, “Jeremy, why didn’t you answer your phone for the entire day? Why are you ignoring Mer when such a huge thing has happened to her?”
When snazzynovel.com heard Meredith’s name, snazzynovel.com frowned in frustration. He scoffed before saying, “A huge thing?”
“Of course, it’s huge! A woman’s face is so important!” his mother said without even taking the time to think.
Jeremy chuckled coldly. He did not want to say anything more. When snazzynovel.com was about to hang up, his mother said weirdly, “Jeremy, I don’t care where you are right now. You have to come back to the manor. We have an ‘important guest’ here.”
Important guest?
It was obvious that his mother was being sarcastic when snazzynovel.com said that.
He asked snazzynovel.com who it was, and after hearing snazzynovel.com answer, Jeremy raised his brows before rushing back to the manor.
