Chapter 1471

Madeline did not expect this.

At that moment, she did not know what to do.

The man in front of her was someone in her life whom she could depend on and trust without any worries. However, in this second, her heart was beating extremely erratically.

Those young ladies who were obsessed with Jeremy’s looks were all staring at him without blinking.

They were hoping that Jeremy would look at them.

However, Jeremy was walking straight to Madeline.

He looked into Madeline’s eyes for a few seconds before saying, “Are you here for the job too?”

He asked. The late autumn wind was already chilly, but Jeremy’s words felt like the spring breeze as it glided past Madeline’s ears.

Madeline clenched her fists and nodded. “Yeah.”

“Have you done any kind of work like this before?” Jeremy continued asking.

Madeline stared at the deep and charming eyes in front of her before nodding again. “I’ve taken care of sick people before so I’m confident that I can excel in this job.”

“Okay, come with me.”

“…”

Jeremy’s answer shocked Madeline, including the other ladies interviewing for the job.

The recruitment had ended just like this?

Did Mr. Whitman really just chose a woman with a voice as coarse as sandpaper?

Had this already been decided behind closed doors?

Everyone started mumbling in their hearts, but they did not dare to voice out their anger as they were scared that Jeremy might hear them and it would land them in trouble.

When the woman impersonating Madeline saw this, she was curious as well. Soon enough, she recognized that it was the woman Jeremy gave the umbrella to that day.

‘Does Jeremy know this masked woman?’

The woman impersonating Madeline had a lot of questions in her heart, but she still had a generous and magnanimous look on her face.

“Jeremy, have you found a maid to take care of Mom?” the woman walked over and asked. Then, she scanned Madeline from head to toe curiously. “Miss, you look pretty familiar. Hey, are you the woman in the rain we met on the street that day?”

Madeline looked into the woman’s pretentious shocked eyes. Then, she said coldly and flatly, “You have such good memory, Mrs. Whitman. That’s right, it’s me.”

When she heard Madeline’s hoarse and unpleasant voice, the woman smiled pretentiously. “What a coincidence. What should I call you?”

Madeline lifted her head, and her clear eyes scanned Jeremy’s handsome face.

“My last name is Quinn.”

‘My last name is Quinn’

When those five words got inside Jeremy’s ears, his heart started beating faster for no reason. He immediately remembered the time when Madeline came back seeking revenge. She had also introduced herself this way the first time she appeared in front of him. “My last name is Quinn.”

Last name.

“Then I shall call you Quinny,” the woman said with a kind and gentle expression. Then, she went over to hold Madeline’s hand intimately. “Come with me. Let me tell you what you should do for this job.”

“Cough, cough.” Madeline pretended to cough to avoid the woman’s outstretched hand.

The woman did not mind. She walked next to Jeremy and turned around so that the people who were still standing and peeking from the iron gates would leave.

Most of the ladies who came for the interview were unhappy with the way things turned out. “Mr.

Whitman is too carefree when selecting his maids!”

“Yeah! That woman’s voice sounds so horrible and she even has a scar on her forehead. Why would Mr. Whitman choose a woman like that?”

A lot of people started to make noise but just then, there was a voice from the crowd that sounded as if they were the only one sober one and the rest of them were intoxicated.

“Say, didn’t you all notice? Even though her voice sounds horrible and she’s not that good-looking, her eyes are so similar to Eveline Montgomery’s.”

After this reminder, everyone started recalling what they had just seen.
