Chapter 1011
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Lana thought she misheard him, but she watched clearly as Jeremyâs pretty thin lips parted to speak.
âCigarette.â
Cigarette.
He had come to ask her for a cigarette.
Lanaâs eyes shone, the franticness within them vanishing at that moment.
She chuckled to herself. Not even the most determined man would be able to survive the torture of poison slowly killing them from the inside.
Lana walked toward him to smile appreciatively at his slightly hollowed features.
âI can give you the cigarette if you want, Jeremy, but you must willingly become mine.â Lana gave her requirement as she stared at Jeremy with desire in her eyes.
Jeremy stared at the heinous smile and replied, âFine.â
Lana was elated, staring at him with her intoxicated eyes as she lowered her voice. âIf thatâs the case, then how about you prove your determination? Iâve gotten a little scared of you since the day you treated me that way because of Eveline. Console me?â
Her words heavily hinted at Jeremy, and he understood.
âHotel. Your pick,â Jeremy replied curtly.
Lana was ecstatic. She never expected she would get the chance to sleep with Jeremy.
She immediately picked a hotel and booked a room before leading him over.
Entering the room, Lana immediately went to take a bath.
After taking a quick bath, she shook her head.
She felt a little dizzy from the drinks she had in the bar, but it was a nice buzz.
Wrapping herself in a towel, Lana then opened the bathroom door and was hit with a special scent.
Jeremy must have lit an incense.
In a daze, she saw the man she dreamed about sitting by the bed. Impatient, she pounced at himâ¦
The night ended and morning came.
Turning around, Lana stared at Jeremy as he put on his clothes by the bed.
The morning sun shone on the manâs handsome brows as Lana stared at him, not able to get enough of his attractive features.
âIt no wonders that Eveline loves you so much, Jeremy. Youâre the most charismatic man Iâve met.â She stared besottedly at him.
Jeremy put on his clothes and went to light a cigarette on the side.
Admiring Jeremy as he smoked, Lana thought back to what happened last night.
Perhaps it was because she drank too much that she blacked out midway. Last night felt like a dream, but the dream felt realâreal enough that she still felt sated.
She wanted Jeremy to stay, but he said that he had matters to tend to her.
Lana washed up and left the room, only to see an unattractive and ragged thug staring at her flirtatiously.
Lana rolled her eyes disgustedly. The fact that such people found interest in her made her want to vomit.
However, she was in a good mood today and decided to ignore it.
â¦
It was still early, and Madeline was making breakfast for Jackson and Lillian.
The siblings were obedient kids. Having had their breakfast, they then took their school bags and held hands as they hopped on the nanny van to school.
Madeline had offered to move out of Whitman Manor a month ago, but Karen managed to persuade her to stay.
She would not be able to take care of all three children if she moved out.
Turning to walk back inside, she suddenly received a call from Ava.
âDid you see it, Maddie? I thought Jeremy already got his memories back? Whatâs he doing this time?â
Avaâs voice was filled with anger. âHow could he hurt you again and again?â
