Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

Chapter 128

Madeline froze in her steps, she did not believe what she just heard, but she felt Jeremy’s grip on her

tighten.

“Linnie…”

He was calling her Linnie.

What a familiar yet foreign name.

Madeline’s eyes suddenly reddened, staring at Jeremy’s sleeping face, her vision slowly blurred.

Remembering the chance encounter all those years ago, Madeline’s heart felt a sense of longing.

“Mer, don’t worry, what I’ve promised you, I’ll definitely make it happen…”

Madeline’s heart that had just begun to warm suddenly froze yet again. She bit her lips as she pulled

her hand away.

The Linnie Jeremy was crying out for was not her, it was Meredith. That was true, Meredith currently

called herself Eveline Montgomery.

Madeline felt incredibly humiliated, laughing at herself as she left. She really deserved the pain she felt

right now, how could she feel anything for that man even after all that has happened?

Madeline bought the fever medication, and just as she was about to wake Jeremy up, his phone rang.

Looking at the display, it was Meredith’s name. Madeline thought for a moment and finally picked it up.

On the other side of the phone, Meredith’s fake sweet voice could be heard, “Jeremy, where are you?

You said you would accompany me tonight.”

“Meredith, you shameless b*tch. If you want a man, don’t come looking for my husband.” Madeline said

rudely. She had deliberately said all that to provoke Meredith, and true to form, Meredith exploded after

two seconds.

“Madeline! Why do you have this phone? Where’s Jeremy?!”

“I’m Jeremy’s wife, what’s wrong with me answering the phone?”

“You…”

Meredith was so angry she had no words, Madeline could just imagine the twisted face she was

making right now.

“Don’t call my husband again. If you’re free, you should be thinking of a way to explain to the police

how something belonging to you was found at the scene of Brittany’s murder.” After Madeline said that,

Meredith was speechless.

This led Madeline to be even more confident that Meredith had something to do with Brittany’s death.

Thinking that her own parents were showing so much love to that animal, Madeline decided to send a

message to Eloise after some consideration. She wanted to voice her suspicions, in hopes that Eloise

and Sean would take some precautions.

However, she did not get any reply as Jeremy woke up.

suspecting something.

“Are you worried I’m trying to poison you?” Madeline placed the medicine and the cup down. “It’s up to

you.”

She left right after, without any hesitation.

Jeremy looked at Madeline’s thin back with a complicated expression before gulping down the

medicine, then shutting his eyes to get some more rest.

The sky turned to night, and Madeline had dinner ready on the table before getting Jeremy. He seemed

to be much better as he sat down at the table. His appetite was good, but he noticed Madeline far away

from him.

“You’re not going to eat with me?” Jeremy said, his alluring eyes staring right at her.
