Chapter 1331

Old Master Whitman wondered why Karen would suddenly ask about this. He furrowed his gray eyebrows. “Where did you learn about this?”

Infuriated, Karen told Old Master Whitman that she just came back from Jones Manor. “The Jones family is unreasonable. Look at what Eveline has become. How dare they say we deserve it?!”

“We deserve it? Did the Jones family say that?” Old Master Whitman’s face darkened. He was visibly displeased.

Karen nodded. “How could I joke about something like that? There were a lot of reporters outside and they all heard it.”

Old Master Whitman’s brows furrowed when he heard that. Just as he was about to say something, Jeremy’s voice rang.

“In that case, the media will break the story online soon.”

“Jeremy.” Karen quickly got up and walked over to Jeremy, her eyes full of confusion. “You know about this? What the hell is going on? Why do I have no idea that there’s bad blood between the Whitman family and the Jones family? What do the Whitman family have to do with their old man’s death?”

Karen asked curiously, but she saw Madeline coming down the stairs just as she finished speaking.

“Hey,” Madeline called out to Jeremy.

Jeremy looked back and quickly walked to Madeline’s side.

“Didn’t you say you were going to sleep? Why are you up?” His tone was soft, and even his eyes were warm like the spring breeze.

Madeline stared intently into Jeremy’s deep eyes. “When will you take me to Jeremy? You’re not fooling me, are you?”

“Eveline,” Karen called out to Madeline and walked up to her. She pointed to Jeremy and replied assertively, “Eveline, he’s Jeremy, the man you love the most throughout the years.”

Madeline sized up Jeremy’s stunning beauty and nodded. “He does look like Jeremy.”

Karen was a little helpless when she heard the words and patiently stressed again. “No, he’s Jeremy.”

Madeline did not seem to like what Karen was saying. She furrowed her eyebrows and grabbed Jeremy’s sleeve. “I don’t want to stay here. Take me to Jeremy.”

“Eveline, Jeremy’s right here—”

“Stop,” Jeremy interrupted Karen and gently took Madeline’s hand as he spoke softly, “Alright, I’ll take you to him right now.”

“Okay!” A smile then appeared on Madeline’s face.

She ignored Karen and Old Master Whitman. She was like an innocent child, letting Jeremy lead her out the door.

“How did Ryan put Eveline in this situation? She doesn’t recognize Jeremy when he’s right in front of her. I wonder what Ryan did to Eveline?” Karen was exasperated and worried.

She grumbled a little before walking back to Old Master Whitman. “Dad, tell me what happened.”

Old Master Whitman did not want to go into details about what happened back then, but he did not want his family to make wild speculations, so he told her what happened in detail…

April Hill.

Jeremy brought Madeline to the place where they fell in love at first sight.

Madeline looked around after getting out of the car. After looking around, she asked impatiently, “Why did you bring me here? Where’s Jeremy?”

“He’ll be here to take you home soon. Just wait,” said Jeremy as he quietly grabbed the wig and contact lens. “Wait here for me while I go to the restroom.”

Madeline grabbed Jeremy’s hand as he turned to leave. There was a hint of worry in her big, clear eyes.

“Are you going to leave me alone for a long time like what Jeremy did?”

Jeremy felt a pang in his heart and felt something bitter running through it.

“You don’t want me to leave?” he asked, smiling.

Madeline’s hand stiffened as she held Jeremy’s palm. Her cheeks seemed to have been flushed by the warm sun. “You can leave. I just want to see Jeremy.”

“Will you miss me if your Jeremy comes back and I’m gone?”
