Chapter 645

Eloise was too lazy to argue with Karen. She raised her eyes to look at Jeremy’s beautiful but out-of-

focus eyes. She sighed and said, “Jeremy, can I ask you just one question? Do you love my daughter?”

This question made Jeremy a little surprised.

“Answer me, do you love Eveline or not?” Eloise asked, her tone quite urgent.

Jeremy’s eyes softened. “Of course, I love her.”

“Well, since you love her, I’ll tell you this. Eveline will return to F Country with Felipe tomorrow and may never come back again.”

Jeremy’s soulless eyes were then tinted with a bit of loneliness and melancholy.

“I know.”

“Just like that?” Eloise looked at the man who had reacted so calmly in surprise.

Jeremy pulled up the corners of his lips into a smile. “Not bothering her and getting involved with her is the last thing I can do for Linnie.”

Eloise was surprised when she heard this.

Seeing Jeremy touching the handrails and turning back upstairs, she took a step forward. “Tomorrow morning at 10:30 AM. It’s your decision whether or not you’ll be there.” After saying these last words, Eloise left.

Jeremy paused as he was heading upstairs, then moved on.

Karen followed Jeremy and repeatedly emphasized, saying, “Jeremy, you must not go. You and Madeline are not a match for each other at all.

“Jeremy, listen to your mother’s advice. There are many women in this world who are better than Madeline. You don’t need to think about her anymore.”

No matter what Karen said, Jeremy ignored her.

Step by step, he returned to the bridal chamber that used to be Madeline and his.

However, there was no longer the remaining fragrance of her—only loneliness and desertion.

He found their wedding album from back then in the dark and stroked the grains of the photo. Jeremy’s fingertips were cold, and the coldness reached his heart.

‘Linnie, as long as you’re happy, I’ll be happy. Even if there will be this gap and regret that I won’t be able to fill up this life.

‘Linnie, I’ve just come to know that there really are people in this world who cannot be together because timing really is important.

‘I never did cherish the time when you regarded me as your only love.

‘Now when I have seen the light and truly regret what I’ve done, you already have hatred for me and not love.

‘Perhaps separation is the best ending for you and me.’

…

The next day at Glendale Airport.

Madeline followed Felipe, joining the line to check-in.

Felipe held her hand with a gentle smile. “Eveline, I know you’re reluctant to be here, so let’s go back to F Country to see Lillian. We’ll come back to pick up Jack after a while.”

Madeline nodded and looked toward the direction of Eloise and Sean who came to send them off. She could not help but look behind them.

She did not know what she was looking at or what she was waiting for, but she was looking forward to something in her heart.

Yet in the end, she could not wait for anything.

Madeline boarded the plane to F Country. The moment the plane took off, she felt weightless as if her heart had suddenly gotten lost.

She took out the leaf bookmark, and for a moment, she could not tell whether the boy she had met at the beach was Jeremy or Felipe…

Jeremy stood at the balcony silently, hearing a whistling over his head. Something in his heart shattered fiercely.

‘Linnie, you’ve really left this time.

‘You will never have to see this scumbag again.

‘Never again.

…

As the sun set and the moon rose several times over, it became late summer and early autumn in a flash.

Even during the hottest two or three months, Jeremy’s heart was cold.

He had visited many hospitals, both large and small, but none of them could effectively fix his blindness. No doctor dared to operate on his eyes rashly.

One weekend, Winston was accompanying Jeremy to an eye hospital. After the examination, the doctor said that there were no issues with Jeremy’s retina, and the reason why Jeremy’s vision had not recovered after so long could be due to other factors.
