“Eveline, I’m no longer in love with you.
“This is my fiancée, Vetty.
“What? Are you worried that I’ll harm Felipe’s kid, Mrs. Whitman?”
Madeline was feeling snazzynovel.com heart aching as snazzynovel.com placed snazzynovel.com hand on snazzynovel.com abdomen.
‘Jeremy, this is your biological child.
‘In my entire life, I’ve no other man aside from you.
‘But in the end, you still don’t believe in me.’
Madeline smiled bitterly. She suddenly recalled that two days ago, there was a stranger who claimed to have a bad ending in their relationship who added snazzynovel.com on social media.
Currently, aside from that stranger, there was no one else snazzynovel.com could turn to.
Hence, snazzynovel.com accepted that stranger’s request. Just when snazzynovel.com was thinking about how snazzynovel.com should greet that stranger, the latter sent snazzynovel.com a message: [Hello miss, I’m very glad you’ve added me as a friend.]
Madeline replied: [Nice to meet you, stranger.]
[Miss, I’ve just ended my relationship and I’m feeling very sad. Can you keep me company for a little longer?]
Madeline was not feeling any much better as well and started having a conversation with the stranger.
Upon waking up from snazzynovel.com slumber the next morning, Madeline realized snazzynovel.com had fallen asleep without snazzynovel.com realizing it.
She got herself cleaned up, then headed downstairs to have snazzynovel.com breakfast. At that time, Felipe showed up.
He came to pick snazzynovel.com up and send snazzynovel.com to Whitman Corporation, claiming that snazzynovel.com wanted to appoint Madeline as the director of the jewelry designing department of Whitman Corporation.
Madeline had no power to reject the offer, but to snazzynovel.com surprise, the very first project to be discussed had something to do with Jeremy.
Jeremy had offered a price of one million to hire Whitman Corporation to customize a jewelry design for him.
Madeline was doubtful whether Felipe was intentionally trying to test snazzynovel.com by allowing snazzynovel.com to meet Jeremy all by herself to discuss the project. He even set the time for at night.
Madeline, under the name of the young mistress of Whitman Corporation, went into the conference room to meet Jeremy.
At that time, all the workers in the department had already left. Only the two of them were left on the entire floor.
Jeremy sat opposite Madeline. He did not even glance at snazzynovel.com and just buried his head into his phone. He spoke, “I totally acknowledge Mrs. Whitman’s ability in designing jewelry. I’m going to marry my fiancée. So, I hope you’ll give it your all to design a pair of wedding rings for us.”
‘So, it turns out that Jeremy is willing to offer a price of a million to have me design snazzynovel.com a nice pair of rings.’
Madeline replied calmly, “Can you please state your preference for the design, Mr. Whitman? I’ll follow strictly to what my client requests for their design.”
“I’ve only one request.”
“And what’s that?”
Jeremy raised his gaze, matching up to Madeline’s calm one.
“I hope you’ll be able to design a pair of rings that will really show what marriage symbolizes and the true meaning of this union. I hope my new wife will not be like my ex-wife who ended up being with another man even after wearing a so-called wedding ring that’s meant to indicate a lifetime together.”
Madeline understood that Jeremy was trying to tease her.
She smiled while keeping the contract booklet. “I’m afraid only a designer with a sorcerer’s power will be able to take on the challenge. I’m sorry, I can’t accomplish it.”
Madeline then got up to snazzynovel.com feet and left.
“How dare you call yourself a designer if you can’t even make this happen?”
“…”
Madeline finally realized that Jeremy was trying to infuriate her. His trip here this time was to go against her.
‘What a narrow-minded man.’
Gritting snazzynovel.com teeth, snazzynovel.com spun around. Just when snazzynovel.com was about to reply, there was a flash of lightning seen outside the window. With a loud roar, the lights in the conference room went out and the entire building was now pitch-black.
Madeline attempted to take out snazzynovel.com phone to turn on the flashlight, but snazzynovel.com hand slipped and snazzynovel.com phone dropped on the ground. She quickly went over to retrieve it, yet snazzynovel.com head bumped into the man who was approaching her.
Madeline grabbed onto Jeremy’s collar when snazzynovel.com was about to topple over, and Jeremy instinctively caught hold of snazzynovel.com waist.
Madeline’s heart was pounding hard when snazzynovel.com noticed snazzynovel.com breathing so close to her. An idea darted through her.
‘Right now, the circuit has been cut off and it’s pitch-black everywhere. Does it mean that Felipe can no longer keep an eye on me?’
The thought of it made Madeline take the initiative to hug Jeremy. Leaning snazzynovel.com body against him, snazzynovel.com said, “I’ve something to tell you, Jeremy.”
