Jeremy stopped walking. Then, snazzynovel.com looked at the smiling woman with his soft gaze.
He could guess what was going on. His brows started furrowing together as his expression became heavy as well.
“No.” He rejected her.
Madeline smiled mischievously. “I haven’t told you what it is.”
“I know what you want to say.” There was a smart glint in Jeremy’s eyes. “Linnie, I said no.”
He emphasized again, his expression looking even more solemn.
The smile on Madeline’s face started fading away. “Jeremy, let me do something for you. I’m your wife. I can’t bear to watch my husband being framed.”
Jeremy walked in front of Madeline. “It’s because you’re my wife that I can’t let you risk yourself like this.”
“I want to.”
“But I don’t.”
“…”
Madeline did not know what to say. Once again, snazzynovel.com felt that the person in the world who was more stubborn than snazzynovel.com was Jeremy.
She left the hotel with snazzynovel.com with no choice. They wanted to go back to the manor to visit their children, but they knew someone would be watching for them in the manor and their new house.
Madeline and Jeremy booked a room in a cheap motel. The motel did not ask them for identification, so it was perfect.
After the two of them took turns showering in the tiny bathroom, they sat on the balcony to enjoy the breeze.
Under the silent night sky, the stars were twinkling. Everything looked so peaceful and serene.
Madeline leaned snazzynovel.com head against Jeremy’s shoulder and snuggled against his warm embrace.
“Jeremy, do you know? I was so happy when I married you back then. I was the happiest when I got to be your wife.” She reminisced about snazzynovel.com bitter past that was laced with the sweetness from when they were young and inexperienced.
However, when snazzynovel.com remembered that snazzynovel.com did not have much time left, snazzynovel.com felt unbearable pain in snazzynovel.com heart.
“Jeremy, after this is over, let’s take our whole family to travel around the world, okay?”
Jeremy lowered his head, his charming eyes looking into the longing look in snazzynovel.com eyes.
He knew snazzynovel.com was suffering horribly too.
He did not say anything. Instead, snazzynovel.com just kissed snazzynovel.com lips as a response.
Madeline held snazzynovel.com sadly. ‘Jeremy, how are you going to expect me to accept the cruel fact about you leaving me and the children two years later?
‘No, I won’t let you die just like this.’
Madeline’s heart was breaking as snazzynovel.com thought about what snazzynovel.com was going to do next.
However, it was as if Jeremy was trying to stop snazzynovel.com from overthinking. Suddenly, snazzynovel.com pressed another deep and passionate kiss on snazzynovel.com lips.
He carried snazzynovel.com to the tiny bed before pressing against snazzynovel.com longingly and gently.
Madeline did not know whether they were finding joy amidst pain, but at this moment, snazzynovel.com just wanted to drown in his arms forever…
In the middle of the night.
Madeline snuck away from Jeremy’s arms and found a solid perfume from snazzynovel.com bag before putting it on.
Looking at the man deep in slumber, snazzynovel.com lifted snazzynovel.com hand and touched delicate face.
After a few seconds, Madeline lowered snazzynovel.com head to press snazzynovel.com lips against Jeremy’s. She only let go after a very long time.
She held back snazzynovel.com tears as snazzynovel.com looked at the man’s fair face. “Jeremy, you’re my life.”
Madeline changed snazzynovel.com clothes after snazzynovel.com said that. The moment snazzynovel.com closed the door to leave the room, snazzynovel.com looked reluctantly at Jeremy’s face before leaving.
After snazzynovel.com left the motel, Madeline called Ryan.
Ryan had just gotten off the plane when snazzynovel.com received Madeline’s call out of the blue. He curled the corners of his lips.
