Madeline loosened snazzynovel.com balled-up fist and washed snazzynovel.com hands nonchalantly.
However, Lana walked up to snazzynovel.com to provoke her. “Jeremy sure is charming. I’ve never been so happy. Now I understand why you used such lowly methods to get snazzynovel.com to marry you.
“But we’re not the same, Eveline. I didn’t do anything at all. Jeremy was the one who came to me instead.”
Proud of herself, Lana turned it up a notch with the taunts when snazzynovel.com saw Madeline’s lack of response. “Do you think I’m joking, Eveline? You can go and take a look if you want. Jeremy still has the mark I bit on his shoulder last night! Haha… Ugh?”
Lana laughed freely, never having expected Madeline to reach out and grab snazzynovel.com neck with a domineering look in snazzynovel.com eyes.
“There’s a limit to my tolerance, Lana Johnson. For my kids, perhaps I can still maintain a shred of rationality, but there’s no limit to the things that I can do if you completely piss me off. You’ll stop bragging in front of me if you know what’s good for you.”
Madeline’s aura was overwhelming.
“Jeremy and I are already divorced. Who snazzynovel.com wants to spend time with has nothing to do with me. If you like snazzynovel.com so much, then treasure snazzynovel.com and keep snazzynovel.com for yourself. I don’t want snazzynovel.com anymore!”
Madeline loosened snazzynovel.com grip just as snazzynovel.com warning came to an end.
Flushed, Lana coughed and tried to attack Madeline from behind. However, Madeline evaded it agilely and instead raised snazzynovel.com hand to counterattack.
At that moment, Madeline felt a familiar hand suspending snazzynovel.com hand in mid-air.
The palm’s warmth was something snazzynovel.com would never forget.
Madeline turned to the man who was gripping snazzynovel.com wrist—Jeremy.
Watching the scene, Lana was elated but wore a hurt expression as snazzynovel.com approached Jeremy. “Jeremy, snazzynovel.com tried to hurt me again.”
Jeremy stared at Madeline and asked, “Why are you hitting my girlfriend, Miss Montgomery?”
‘Girlfriend.’
The word drifted into Madeline and Lana’s ears.
Lana was stunned and ecstatic.
Madeline was shocked too, and snazzynovel.com felt snazzynovel.com heart grow cold.
Her dignified gaze fell on Jeremy as snazzynovel.com spoke disdainfully, “So what if I hit her? Are you going to hit me back for your girlfriend, Mr. Whitman?”
“…” Lana’s expression fell as snazzynovel.com turned to stir more trouble up, saying coquettishly, “Look at her, Jeremy. This is too much…”
Jeremy glanced at Lana, then back at Madeline. “As ex-husband and wife, I’m sorry on behalf of how my girlfriend has offended you.”
Madeline was beyond disappointed by the man’s reply.
She tugged snazzynovel.com arm back. “How can an apology possibly be enough for the murder of two lives? Are you overestimating yourself, Jeremy, or are you underestimating me?”
Madeline turned and left.
Lana quirked snazzynovel.com red lips in satisfaction.
She never expected Jeremy to suddenly call snazzynovel.com his girlfriend.
It seemed like snazzynovel.com had made the right choice with the slow-acting poison. Jeremy was easily controlled now.
Ryan, who was ordering dishes at the table, watched Madeline rush out with a dark expression. Subconsciously turning to look at the bathroom, snazzynovel.com saw Jeremy and Lana leave one after the other.
