After Madeline pushed the door open, snazzynovel.com could smell the stench of alcohol.
It had been three years. She never thought that snazzynovel.com would come back to this place. What shocked snazzynovel.com even more was when snazzynovel.com pushed the door open, the decorations and renovation were still the same as back then.
Everything in front of snazzynovel.com eyes was the same as three years ago. There were not many changes.
Madeline walked forward slowly with puzzlement. The apartment was not big, so when snazzynovel.com walked in, snazzynovel.com spotted Jeremy right away.
He was leaning against the sofa while sitting on the floor. His eyes were closed, making snazzynovel.com look lazy and carefree.
The collar of his white shirt was opened and his collarbone was showing.
His cheeks were red while his pale lips were wet. It seemed as if snazzynovel.com had just drunk some wine. On the coffee table in front of snazzynovel.com were two bottles of opened wine.
Madeline looked curiously at the man who appeared drunk.
‘Jeremy, what the hell are you doing?
‘Are you here to drink your sorrows away?’
Madeline walked over with caution. “Jeremy.”
She called out softly, “This is Vera. Why are you drunk here?”
Jeremy opened his dazed eyes when snazzynovel.com heard snazzynovel.com voice.
However, when snazzynovel.com looked at the smiling face through his dazed eyes, the alcohol in his eyes evaporated immediately. They became crystal clear in an instant.
He sat up immediately and pulled Madeline into his arms.
Madeline was caught off guard and got pulled into his embrace. He was holding snazzynovel.com tightly.
His body temperature was high, almost burning snazzynovel.com through his shirt.
Madeline wanted to escape from snazzynovel.com but Jeremy only tightened his grip on her. It was as if snazzynovel.com was trying to melt snazzynovel.com into his body.
“You’re back. It’s good now that you’re back. It’s good…” snazzynovel.com muttered in snazzynovel.com ear, his cheek pressing up against hers tightly. He nuzzled against snazzynovel.com as snazzynovel.com muttered his longing for her.
“Please don’t leave me again, okay?”
His low and gentle voice was filled with pleas.
Madeline lifted snazzynovel.com eyebrow, and snazzynovel.com was sure that Jeremy was mistaking snazzynovel.com for another woman.
It was either Meredith or the woman Jeremy wanted to give the roses to.
“I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. Please give me another chance. Give me another chance to love you, okay?”
Jeremy’s apologies lingered in snazzynovel.com ear. He was holding snazzynovel.com with his fingers in snazzynovel.com hair. His warm hand was caressing snazzynovel.com head softly.
While they were intertwined in each other’s arms, snazzynovel.com buried his head in snazzynovel.com neck like snazzynovel.com was longing for her, or perhaps, snazzynovel.com was lusting for her. He had a satisfied grin on his face now.
“I never had the chance to tell you this, but I finally have the chance now.”
When Madeline was about to push Jeremy away and stand up, snazzynovel.com heard snazzynovel.com saying that.
She stopped in snazzynovel.com tracks, and then, snazzynovel.com heard Jeremy’s deep voice gliding into snazzynovel.com ears.
“I love you.”
‘I love you.’
These three words traveled into Madeline’s ears clearly.
She froze as snazzynovel.com heart skipped a beat.
For some reason, snazzynovel.com felt tears stinging the corner of snazzynovel.com eyes.
He said the words ‘I love you’.
Madeline curled the corners of snazzynovel.com lips in amusement. As snazzynovel.com was smiling, snazzynovel.com eyes were wet with tears.
She remembered back when snazzynovel.com was blind, Jeremy had pressed snazzynovel.com roughly against the floor right here before grabbing snazzynovel.com hand and forcing snazzynovel.com to sign the divorce papers.
She would never forget what snazzynovel.com had said to her. He said, “Are you still so naive to think that I have feelings for you even until now?”
He had also said, “Madeline, listen here. I’ve never liked you, let alone loved. Not even a little bit.”
Tears blurred snazzynovel.com vision just like back then.
However, snazzynovel.com did not let the tears flow down snazzynovel.com face.
Madeline made up snazzynovel.com mind and pushed Jeremy away.
Jeremy could not fight back at all. He collapsed on the floor after Madeline pushed snazzynovel.com away.
She looked at the man who looked like snazzynovel.com had fallen asleep. There was resentment and hatred in snazzynovel.com eyes as snazzynovel.com clenched snazzynovel.com fists tightly.
She was about to leave when snazzynovel.com saw something next to Jeremy’s hand.
