Suddenly, snazzynovel.com became very pessimistic, especially after snazzynovel.com saw Naomi’s arrogant, confident, and pleased face when snazzynovel.com was sure that snazzynovel.com did not have the guts to face Jeremy. Madeline could not accept this.
She clenched snazzynovel.com fists and took a deep breath. She kept on telling herself to calm down.
However, when snazzynovel.com looked at herself in the mirror, snazzynovel.com could not keep calm.
She turned around and forced herself to not look.
She stood with snazzynovel.com back to the mirror for a very long time. She endured the discomfort on snazzynovel.com face when suddenly, snazzynovel.com remembered something and there was a glint in snazzynovel.com dull, lifeless eyes.
Perhaps snazzynovel.com should try it.
Madeline thought about it and put on snazzynovel.com clothes and mask.
When snazzynovel.com was about to go out, snazzynovel.com heard knockings on the door.
Madeline walked over to open the door. To snazzynovel.com surprise, snazzynovel.com saw Jeremy upon opening the door.
Their eyes met, and Madeline was slightly taken aback. However, snazzynovel.com pretended to stay calm. “How can I help you, Mr. Whitman?”
Madeline was curious indeed. Should Jeremy not be at work after sending the children to school? Why did snazzynovel.com come back?
Plus, snazzynovel.com did not know if snazzynovel.com was delusional but snazzynovel.com felt that Jeremy’s eyes were intentionally avoiding snazzynovel.com face.
“Are you okay?” After a long while, Jeremy finally asked.
‘Okay?’
Madeline shifted snazzynovel.com eyes in puzzlement before remembering what happened in the park just now.
“You heard about it too, Mr. Whitman? About what happened just now?”
“Yeah.” Jeremy nodded. “So, are you okay?”
“Thank you for your concern, Mr. Whitman. I’m fine.” Madeline’s answer was straight to the point. “I’m sorry, Mr. Whitman, I need to go out for a bit. Can I take a day off?”
“Are you going out? Let me drive you.”
“…” Madeline had never seen Jeremy being so passionate and friendly before. She quickly declined. “No need, my boyfriend will pick me up.”
Madeline had no choice, so snazzynovel.com could only use Carter as an excuse to decline Jeremy.
She could notice the subtle changes on Jeremy’s face. However, snazzynovel.com did not have time to think too much about it.
After Madeline got out of the house, snazzynovel.com called a cab from the side of the road.
When Jeremy saw Madeline getting into the car, snazzynovel.com got into his own car and followed behind her.
Even though Madeline had only gone to Adam’s place once, snazzynovel.com still remembered where it was as clear as day.
After snazzynovel.com arrived at Adam’s home, Madeline stood at the door and hesitated.
When snazzynovel.com was hesitating, the woman named Amy walked out of the house. However, to Madeline, Amy was Cathy from before.
Amy spotted Madeline and walked to the door curiously. She looked into Madeline’s eyes and felt a sense of familiarity. “Are you—”
“I want to see Dr. Brown. Is snazzynovel.com home?”
“Oh, you’re looking for Adam.” Amy looked into the house. “Come in, then. He’s home.”
“Thanks.” Madeline let out a sigh of relief before following Amy into the house.
Adam was playing with the children in the living room. When snazzynovel.com saw Amy bringing Madeline over, snazzynovel.com looked at Madeline’s eyes curiously for a moment.
“Eveline?” Adam asked probingly.
Madeline did not nod or shake snazzynovel.com head. “Adam, I think you’re the only person who can help me now.”
After snazzynovel.com said that, snazzynovel.com lifted snazzynovel.com hand and removed the mask from snazzynovel.com face.
