However, when Madeline was hugged by Jeremy, snazzynovel.com reacted fiercely and pushed snazzynovel.com away. She hurriedly retracted snazzynovel.com legs back to the bed and pulled up the blanket to wrap it around herself.
Madeline’s eyes were full of trepidation as snazzynovel.com held snazzynovel.com arms tightly, muttering to herself, “Don’t come here. I’ll do everything you say, I’ll listen to you. Don’t force me…”
Jeremy stared at Madeline with a frightened expression. As snazzynovel.com listened to what snazzynovel.com was saying at the moment, snazzynovel.com gradually understood why Madeline was having such a reaction.
It was because Ryan had tortured snazzynovel.com so much that snazzynovel.com became like this.
Jeremy clenched his fists. A storm raged in his deep eyes. Soon, the darkness and coldness in his eyes dissipated for Madeline’s sake, leaving only gentleness and warmth that were like the spring breeze.
“Linnie,” Jeremy gently called out to Madeline before raising his palm to caress snazzynovel.com head, but Madeline shrank snazzynovel.com neck and was obviously avoiding his touch.
“Linnie, I’m Jeremy. Look at me, I’m your Jeremy.” Jeremy patiently and tenderly coaxed snazzynovel.com while slowly bringing his face closer to hers.
Madeline lifted snazzynovel.com blank and dispirited charming eyes to look at Jeremy seriously.
“Jeremy?”
Jeremy nodded with a warm smile. “Linnie, it’s me.”
After Jeremy answered snazzynovel.com affirmatively, Madeline furrowed snazzynovel.com eyebrows. She looked at Jeremy for a while but later shook snazzynovel.com head.
“You’re lying. Jeremy hasn’t come yet. He told me he’ll come for me and I’m waiting for him,” Madeline spoke seriously and looked away from Jeremy’s face.
Jeremy felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured into his heart. He looked at Madeline who was silently ignoring snazzynovel.com and left the room while feeling choked.
He took out the card that Adam put in his pocket and immediately called him. “Can you come over now? Eveline is up, but she’s behaving strangely.”
Adam seemed to have expected Jeremy to call him. “I’ll be there soon.”
“Are you almost here? How do you know where I live?”
“Ryan has a clear grasp of your movements in Y Country.” As soon as Adam finished saying this, Jeremy heard the doorbell of the apartment ringing. “I’m here. Open the door.”
Jeremy did not expect Adam to arrive so fast. Jeremy tossed the phone away and walked over to open the door.
Adam had changed into casual clothes, but the only thing constant with snazzynovel.com was that snazzynovel.com was still wearing those glasses. Plus, snazzynovel.com looked calmer on top of his gentle image now.
“Is snazzynovel.com in the room?” Adam asked.
Jeremy led the way forward while his eyebrows furrowed more and more. “I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but snazzynovel.com doesn’t seem to recognize me anymore.”
“When I brought snazzynovel.com out of Ryan’s villa, I also found something amiss with her, but I didn’t expect that snazzynovel.com would not recognize you as well.” Adam followed Jeremy into the room.
Adam held his glasses thoughtfully when snazzynovel.com saw Madeline holding the blanket on the bed.
“You should go and talk to her. I want to observe snazzynovel.com reaction.”
Jeremy nodded. Then, snazzynovel.com sat down by the bed and carefully raised his palm before putting it on snazzynovel.com head. “Linnie.”
Madeline abruptly avoided snazzynovel.com and even glanced at Jeremy in annoyance. “Don’t disturb me while I wait for him. Go away.”
“Linnie, I’m the one you’re waiting for,” Jeremy explained patiently in a soft voice.
Madeline looked at snazzynovel.com fixedly. “No, you’re not.”
“Linnie.”
“Don’t call me Linnie. Only Jeremy can call me that.” Madeline corrected, but snazzynovel.com tone was not as aggressive as before.
Jeremy’s eyes became more desolate when snazzynovel.com was faced with Madeline’s avoidance.
He and Adam looked at each other. Then, Adam nodded before turning around and walking outside.
Jeremy tentatively pulled Madeline’s blanket for snazzynovel.com as snazzynovel.com was scared of being disliked by her.
Seeing that Madeline did not dislike snazzynovel.com as much as just now, his heart started to feel more at ease.
Inside the living room.
