Chapter 275
Everyone’s gaze landed on Jeremy who had voiced his opinion all of a sudden.
There was a layer of frost on his handsome face and his eyes looked as piercing as icepicks.
“Jeremy, I’ll marry Vera no matter what,” Felipe said calmly, but his tone was firm.
“I won’t let you guys get married.” Jeremy’s calm and unhurried answer crashed against him. His tone was even firmer than Felipe’s.
Madeline frowned. “What do you mean by this, Mr. Whitman? Who are you to oppose our marriage?”
He pressed his lips together as his icy gaze landed on Madeline’s face. His eyes were filled with intense encroachment.
“I won’t let you become my aunt because of your face.”
His tone was domineering while his expression was cold and certain.
Madeline scoffed. “I can’t marry your uncle just because I look like your ex-wife? If that’s the case, do you think it’s only suitable for me to marry a man who looks like you, Mr. Whitman?”
Jeremy was tongue-tied. He looked straight at her and their eyes met. It felt like sparks would appear whenever their eyes met.
“You’re delusional if you think you can marry our Jeremy!” Jeremy’s mother jeered arrogantly out of the blue, “In the entire Glendale, only Miss Meredith Montgomery is worthy of our Jeremy! They’re going to marry soon! You? Hmph! Women who look like that b*tch Madeline are all bad news.”
Jeremy frowned unhappily when he heard his mother’s insults. His tone was icy when he spoke, “How many times do I have to tell you? My marriage to the Montgomeries is canceled. I won’t marry her anymore!”
His mother was still feeling proud of herself when she heard him. She did not expect to be proved wrong by her son.
Her face was red from embarrassment. Then, she advised him, saying, “Jeremy, I know there are some misunderstandings between you and Mer, but stop throwing tantrums. Mer gave birth to your child, so how can you not marry her? She loves you so much and listens to everything you say. Where else are you going to find such a perfect wife?”
“Do you think she’s the only woman who loves me?” Jeremy asked coldly. He could only think of Madeline right now.
He would never meet a woman who loved him as much as her.
She was the only one.
Jeremy’s mother was taken aback. She did not know what to say at that moment.
Just then, her phone started ringing.
The moment she answered the call, she heard a woman’s frantic yelling from the other end. Madeline recognized it to be Eloise’s voice. She was yelling about Meredith. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“Oh no!” Jeremy’s mother hung up the phone as her expression changed. “Jeremy, go to the hospital now! Mer wants to jump off a building!”
Meredith wanted to jump off a building?
Madeline knew that this was merely an act. Meredith had to be doing this for a reason. She was definitely after the position of Mrs. Whitman.
“Jeremy, Mer has been with you for so many years and she even gave birth to Jack. Now, her face was even wounded because of you. You can’t just ignore her! If she really jumps, you’ll regret this for the rest of your life!”
Regret.
This word penetrated Jeremy’s heart like an arrow.
He remembered what Madeline had said to him when she was still alive.
‘Jeremy, you’ll regret this.’
He did not want to regret this.
Not even the slightest bit.
Maddie.
His heart started aching as he called out Madeline’s name. Suddenly, he turned around to leave.
Madeline could clearly see the changes in Jeremy’s expression. It was so solemn like he was scared of losing something.
Her heart plunged when she saw him leaving so hurriedly.
‘Jeremy, you’re still so concerned about her.
‘Are you scared that something might happen to her? Is that why your expression has changed?
‘Hmph!’
Madeline pressed her pink lips together, and there was a dark tide in her eyes.
Old Master Whitman looked at Madeline pensively at one side. After a while, he sighed and shook his head.
Initially, Felipe wanted to stay with Madeline, but something came up all of a sudden and he needed to leave.
