Daniel turned around and looked over as well. In the next second, snazzynovel.com furrowed his brows together as his expression became grimmer.
Madeline did not know who was behind her, but from Ava and Daniel’s reactions, snazzynovel.com could guess who it was.
At this moment, snazzynovel.com heard a lot of people whispering among themselves. A few girls were even blushing when they saw Jeremy.
“That man is so handsome!”
“He looks like the president of Whitman Corporation!”
“I saw snazzynovel.com online before! He’s Jeremy Whitman!”
Madeline placed snazzynovel.com chopsticks down without batting an eyelid. She did not even turn around. “Ava, Dan, let’s just ignore those irrelevant people. Let’s change to another restaurant.”
Ava scowled at Jeremy who was walking over while clenching snazzynovel.com fists. “Alright, I’ll listen to you, Maddie! Dan, let’s go!”
“Okay.” Daniel got up as well. Then, snazzynovel.com peered at Jeremy in dissatisfaction with anger in his eyes.
Madeline grabbed snazzynovel.com bag. When snazzynovel.com turned around, snazzynovel.com saw that Jeremy was already standing in front of her.
The man was still elegant and poised. His black leather jacket was stained with the coldness from the winter evening. However, his eyes did not have their usual coldness and were as warm as the spring breeze.
“I know you don’t want to see me now, but there’s one thing I have to tell you.” Jeremy’s voice was soft.
Madeline looked at Ava and Daniel before snazzynovel.com smiled. “Ava, Dan, please wait for me.”
After snazzynovel.com finished saying that, snazzynovel.com did not look at Jeremy. She walked outside the shop and waited for snazzynovel.com to follow her.
The wind of this winter night was so cold that it was penetrating their bones. Madeline stood under the streetlight, snazzynovel.com delicate face looking exceptionally cold under the yellow light.
“Mr. Whitman, you possess such remarkable abilities. You can always pinpoint exactly where I am every single time. Why? Are you here to catch your wh*re of a wife in the act with snazzynovel.com illicit lover like how you used to? However, you should remember that I have no relations with you anymore. You have no right to question who I’m with or what I’m doing.”
She mocked with a sarcastic smile on snazzynovel.com face.
Jeremy heard snazzynovel.com loud and clear. He also remembered the time snazzynovel.com saw Madeline eating tacos with hot sauce by the food truck with Daniel. When snazzynovel.com saw them together back then, snazzynovel.com had felt extremely uncomfortable.
However, thinking back to that, snazzynovel.com was jealous.
He did not understand that snazzynovel.com was only disorientated before because snazzynovel.com cared about snazzynovel.com too much.
Now, everything was too late.
Jeremy hated himself in silence, but snazzynovel.com was still looking at Madeline with such gentle eyes.
“Vera,” snazzynovel.com called out to her. “Compared to Madeline Crawford or Eveline Montgomery, I think you would prefer to be Vera Quinn.”
Jeremy struck the target after snazzynovel.com said that.
“Because you have such horrible memories as Madeline Crawford and Eveline Montgomery.”
“Is that what you want to say to me?” Madeline interrupted snazzynovel.com coldly. She was annoyed. “Jeremy, stop harassing me. I don’t want to see you again. If you have time, you should visit Meredith in prison. Don’t forget, she’s the love of your life.”
“I do have a woman I love in my heart for all these years, but she’s not Meredith.” Jeremy denied it. He walked over to Madeline and took out the colorful shell from his pocket.
When Madeline saw the shell, snazzynovel.com was visibly shocked.
“I know you won’t believe me, but it’s true. The person I’ve loved this whole time is you.”
“Pfft.”
Madeline burst out laughing. Looking at the gorgeous face in front of her, snazzynovel.com eyes started to turn cold from the wind.
“Me?” She scoffed in sarcasm. “If loving someone is forcing snazzynovel.com to a dead end, then your love is so extraordinary,” snazzynovel.com said while lowering snazzynovel.com head to look at that faded shell. She could feel tears well up in snazzynovel.com eyes.
“Jeremy, when I gave you this shell, I genuinely hoped that you would be happy, but now, I would even dream about you suffering in pain.”
After snazzynovel.com said that, Jeremy felt a sharp pang of pain that was akin to a million ants gnawing on his heart.
Madeline reached out snazzynovel.com hand to take the shell. Then, snazzynovel.com threw it at the bustling street that was filled with moving cars without hesitating. She turned around and did not even look at Jeremy from the corner of snazzynovel.com eyes. As expected, snazzynovel.com walked toward Ava and Daniel.
