Chapter 651

Madeline had followed Felipe out to shop. After a round of shopping, Felipe took Madeline to this famous outdoor cafe.

As soon as she walked onto the terrace, Madeline saw a woman leaning in the arms of a man not far in front.

She glanced at them indifferently, but as she was about to look away, she realized that the man was Jeremy.

Jeremy was holding a woman.

“Eveline, what’s wrong?” Seeing Madeline staring blankly in a certain direction, Felipe asked in a concerned tone.

Madeline hurriedly turned her head. “It’s nothing. I just think that this cafe is very special.”

She sat down on the side casually, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the woman who was in Jeremy’s arms just now. She was currently sitting opposite Jeremy.

Felicity sat with her back facing Madeline. Madeline could not see her appearance. However, just by looking at her back, Madeline felt her manner as a woman to be quite good, so her appearance should be decent as well.

When the waiter handed over the menu, Madeline looked back.

On the other side, Felicity had sat down and apologized to Jeremy with a smile on her face. “I’m sorry, Mr. Whitman. I’ve just bought these shoes and am not accustomed to wearing them. Thank you for helping me just now.”

Jeremy’s jade-like face was cold. “I hope there’ll be no next time.”

The smile on Felicity’s face froze, and two seconds later, she gave a seemingly generous response.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Whitman. There will be no next time.”

Madeline ordered a cup of iced coffee and could not help looking in Jeremy’s direction.

Felipe naturally noticed but pretended not to see anything. He then made an excuse to go to the bathroom and walked away.

Madeline and Jeremy were facing each other from a distance of more than ten yards, but Madeline realized that Jeremy did not seem to have noticed her presence.

He had been talking to the woman sitting across from him when Madeline suddenly noticed Jeremy holding a coffee cup in his left hand. She clearly saw then that his ring finger was bare.

Sure enough, he had taken off the ring.

Madeline smiled suddenly, laughing at her self-righteous and naive thoughts.

At the gates of the police station the other day, his eyes had been drooping as he was looking at the wedding ring as if he was reluctant. Yet, it turned out that it was all just an act.

Sure enough, he did not love her.

His so-called love was nothing more than his guilt after having severely hurt her.

He did not look back when she fell into the waters exactly because he did not love her.

That was why he did not give her any notice when he was discharged from the hospital that day.

That was why he never appeared the day she got on the plane and left Glendale.

Moreover, he had agreed without hesitation to get a divorce certificate with her.

‘Because he doesn’t love me, that’s why he has no lingering affection and has taken off the wedding ring decisively. He will never have any more ties or entanglements with me.

‘But is this not the best result?

‘Why do I still care?’

Madeline asked herself in a daze as she raised her coffee cup.

The cold liquid entered her throat, but she could not taste the mellow aroma of coffee. It was just a prolonged bitterness…

When Felipe returned, he saw Madeline stirring the coffee absent-mindedly. He raised his eyes and glanced in Jeremy’s direction, then turned to sit down beside Madeline. “Eveline, we actually have everything in F Country. We don’t need to buy too many things to bring home.”

“Yeah,” Madeline responded softly, “Then, let’s go. I’m a little tired.”

She picked up her bag and looked at Jeremy who was blind toward her. She turned around decisively and went downstairs.

Felipe followed, and at the same time, he sent a message to Felicity.

After receiving news from Felipe, Felicity reluctantly finished the last sip of her coffee. Looking at the handsome face that she had admired for many years, she raised the corner of her red lips and smiled openly.

“Mr. Whitman, let’s stop here today. We will discuss the specifics of your treatment plan the next time we meet. As long as you cooperate during the treatment, I believe your eyes will be restored soon.”

Jeremy opened his mouth calmly. “Sorry for the trouble.”

Felicity looked at him obsessively before getting up and leaving.
