Chapter 2003
Madeline and Jeremy stopped in their tracks at the same time.
Hannah’s eyes were full of grievances, and her beautiful face was unyielding.
“Mr. Whitman, you have agreed that I’ll live in your house and that you’ll be responsible for me, but you still stay with Eveline every day. How are you going to help me settle down?”
Hannah asked very bluntly, but when she asked that question, it made her seem ignorant and simplistic.
However, how simplistic could a person, willing to be used by Carter to achieve her goals, be?
After hearing this, Jeremy evidently did not want to bother explaining to Hannah. His arms around Madeline’s shoulder tightened slightly as he lowered his gaze and whispered to Madeline.
“Linnie, let’s not allow irrelevant people to affect our mood,” he said softly, his eyes were gentle and filled with love. “Let’s go.”
Madeline did not want to continue dealing with Hannah, so she smiled and nodded.
Jeremy lifted his handsome face that instantly turned cold. After that, he carefreely walked past Hannah with his arms around Madeline. It could be said that he was completely ignoring Hannah.
Refusing to back down, Hannah bit her lip and looked at Madeline who was being cherished in Jeremy’s embrace. Hannah’s eyes were nearly brimming with intense envy and hatred.
She stomped her feet angrily, unable to rein in her anger.
Hannah admitted that Madeline was much better than her in many aspects and that Madeline was more perfect than her, but Hannah was younger!
She was in her twenties and that was her prime. Moreover, her appearance was the most outstanding one in the crowd.
She was very attractive to men, so logically speaking, Jeremy, being a man, should not be able to escape from this established law, yet he was the exception.
“Hmph!” This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Irritated, Hannah huffed. The more she thought about it, the madder she felt.
At the thought of Jeremy’s warning earlier and to avoid inviting more ridicule, she decided to leave Madeline’s laboratory first.
However, before she could take a few steps, Hannah thought of Madeline enjoying her afternoon tea with Jeremy sweetly, and then Hannah suddenly turned around again.
She thought of what Madeline said to Jeremy just now.
“I’ve just finished my work too. I’ve noted down all of the data and we can arrange for the factory to mass produce it tomorrow.”
Hannah remembered what Madeline said.
Hannah quickly walked back to the test bench and reached out to pick up the tablet that Madeline had placed on the table.
Just when the screen was going to go dark, she quickly reached out and clicked.
The screen of the tablet lit up again, followed by the interface of the company’s intranet that Madeline opened not long ago.
Hannah saw the data recorded on the webpage which was saved ten minutes ago.
Hannah smiled sinisterly as she lifted her hand and tampered with the data.
A moment later, she placed the tablet down and left happily.
Jeremy brought Madeline for a short break at the dessert shop near the office.
Of course, they talked about Hannah, but Madeline was very relaxed now.
“ If we don’t reach a compromise with her for the time being, god knows what she’ll do again.” Madeline lifted the cake on the table and took a small bite.
The slight bitterness of the chocolate was mixed with the slightly sweet cream.
She smiled gladly and felt that life was also this way.
There was sweetness and bitterness in life. Hannah, who suddenly appeared at this moment, might be the slight bitterness that was added into her interesting life.
Regardless, she believed that she would not be defeated by this bitterness.
Despite that, Jeremy still felt guilty in his heart.
