Chapter 615
Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife
Glendale Airport.
With Jacksonâs hand in hers, Madeline walked into the VIP lounge.
Eloise and Sean followed them in.
A host had brought in a flavorful breakfast for them, but Madeline did not seem to have much of an appetite.
Unease gnawed within her, thought its cause was unknown.
Eloise got up to sit by Madelineâs side before finally holding Madelineâs hand in hers after a long moment of pondering. âEveline.â
She called out, the corners of her eyes growing hot.
âTake good care of yourself, Eveline. And come visit Glendale when you have timeâ¦â She paused as her eyes flitted to look at Sean. âCome visit Mom and Dad.â
Madeline passed a piece of tissue to wipe Eloiseâs tears. âI will.â
Eloise felt her nose burn as she hugged Madeline lightly. âMomâs really sorry, Eveline⦠I hope youâll never have to suffer again.â
Madeline patted Eloiseâs shoulder comfortingly with a small smile, but she felt her heart clench when she saw Sean wiping his tears away from the corner of her eyes.
She may have lost memories of the past, but the pain in her heart could not feel more real.
With the check-in procedures completed, Felipe returned while smiling warmly as he was met with the sight of Eloise sobbing with Madeline in her arms.
âIâll bring Eveline back frequently, Aunty. You and Uncle donât need to feel so sad.â
Eloise nodded. However, sadness could rarely be chased away just by a few words.
They had searched for over 20 years and experienced so much before their family could finally reunite and before they could hear Madeline call them âMomâ and âDadâ.
Now they were going to separate again when they had yet to reap all the warmth a family brought.
âWe board in 20 minutes, Eveline. You still havenât had breakfast yet, so eat up.â Felipe reminded softly, his eyes bleeding with gentleness. âYou too, Jack.â
Jackson shook his head as he played with the limited edition mini Giant Robo figurine that he had assembled last night. He turned around to hold it in front of Madeline. âLook, Mommy. Iâve already assembled everything already, so why isnât Dad here yet? Wonât he come to send me and Mom off? I want to show him my Giant Robo. I want Dad to praise me.â
Madeline felt her heartstrings tug at the mention of Jeremy.
Felipeâs smile remained on his face, but a rush of displeasure swarmed him anyway.
He looked at the time and was about to give the order to his subordinates who remained at Glendale when a figure suddenly rushed into the VIP lounge.
âGrandpa!â Jack greeted and looked past him, but he did not see the person he wanted to see.
âWhereâs Dad, Grandpa?â the boy asked, his large eyes sparkling.
Winston leaned down to pat Jacksonâs head affectionately. âDo you want to see your dad, Jack?â
âMhm.â
âAlright. Then follow Grandpa, hmm?â
âJack will not return with you.â Felipe stood and rejected coldly. âWhy are you here? Did Jeremy call you to come over?â
Madeline could feel the distaste in Felipeâs voice as a rare sight of anger flashed through his usually kind and soft-spoken appearance.
Winstonâs heavy gaze locked with Felipeâs as he walked toward Madeline. His eyes when facing her bore no deceit. âIâm very sorry about what happened before, Madeline. Iâve never had the chance to tell you Iâm sorry.â
Winstonâs apology took Madeline off guard, but the genuineness of his apology was evident in how he put his ego aside to apologize in such a situation.
Madeline replied with a faint smile, âI accept your apology. Is there anything else? I have to board soon.â
âThere is.â Winstonâs eyes were attentive. âJeremy truly loves you. He knows he has screwed up.â
Felipeâs expression darkened. âDoes Jeremyâs true love mean that Eveline will get hurt again and again? He turned away without a second glance when Madeline was moments away from drowning to death. Is this true love?â
