Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

Chapter 72

Madeline saw a pair of expensive black leather shoes and a pair of long, lean legs. She lifted her head,

and in her dazed state, she vaguely saw a familiar face before she passed out.

When Madeline regained consciousness, she realized that she was in the hospital. Ava was staying

next to her.

Ava saw that she was awake but she still was not relieved. “Maddie, don’t you know the condition of

your body? Why did you go out in the rain and got yourself into this situation?”

Madeline saw that Ava was on the brink of tears. Her eyes were red and the corner of her lips was

twitching.

“I’m awake now, aren’t I?” Madeline smiled. However, she subconsciously felt that her body might have

worsened. She did not want to think about it anymore.

She recalled how she had used her life to swear to Jeremy earlier. Perhaps her life was going to end

soon, so that promise of dying a horrible death felt extremely hilarious and amusing to her now.

“Who sent me here?”

Madeline remembered what happened before she passed out. She vaguely remembered seeing a

familiar face.

“I don’t know. The nurse said it was a very handsome and masculine man. Right, his voice sounded

nice as well. He’s the one who called me to come here with your phone,” Ava said with a smile of

interest on her face. She pushed Madeline’s shoulder. “Maddie, could he be your admirer?”

Madeline laughed in self-mockery. “How would a woman like me have any admirers?”Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“What’s wrong with you? You’re so pretty and talented. You have men lining up for you. You’re just

blinded by love and that’s why you’re still in love with that trash of a man.”

Was she still in love with Jeremy?

Madeline was still in a daze.

After resting for a few days, Madeline finally regained her energy.

Jeremy did not come to cause any trouble for her during this period.

Despite not having much time, Madeline did not want to give up on herself.

She had not avenged her daughter yet, so she would not allow herself to die so quickly. She submitted

a lot of resumes and finally, one company called her for an interview.

Madeline valued this opportunity a lot, so she put on a set of simple office wear.

The company was located in the city center and was just one street away from Whitman Corporation.

When Madeline reached the company, she did not expect Meredith to walk out. Perhaps she was going

to meet Jeremy at Whitman Corporation and decided to buy coffee on the way there. When she saw

Madeline, her face fell.

“Madeline, you’re even cheaper than I imagined! You didn’t even let Old Master Whitman off the hook!

You must’ve drugged that old guy and that was why he was so defensive of you!”

Her words were hurtful, but Madeline did not want to argue with her here.

“Meredith, please watch your mouth. Do you think everyone is as cheap and heinous as you are?

Grandpa is a smart man, so he saw through you a long time ago.”

“Pah!” Meredith was furious. “Madeline, you b*tch! You made yourself seem so innocent. If you hadn’t

talked bad about me and insulted my past in front of that old thing and Jeremy, then why would Jeremy

want to investigate my past all of a sudden?”

This was beyond Madeline’s expectations. It seemed that Jeremy had actually listened to her.

“Don’t feel so pleased with yourself, Madeline. Let me tell you, Jeremy won’t find anything about all

those things you said!” Meredith gritted her teeth and shrieked. Despite her talking like she was

prepared for this, Madeline felt that Jeremy was starting to suspect Meredith when she saw her on the

brink of explosion. If not, why would she react like this?

“You b*tch!” she yelled at Madeline angrily. After a moment, she looked at Madeline’s outfit, then back

at the company in front of her. “Tch, are you looking for a job? I want to see who dares to hire you!”

As Meredith said that, she flung her right hand and splashed the piping hot coffee on Madeline.
