Chapter 1476

Madeline went back to Carter’s manor, and the moment she stepped foot inside, she saw Carter sitting on the European-styled sofa in the living room. He was flipping a book elegantly.

“Are you going to be the Whitmans’ maid?” Carter asked unhurriedly.

Madeline stopped in her tracks and turned back to look at the man who had a nonchalant expression on his face. She smiled superficially and said, “I didn’t think Mr. Carter would be so interested in what I’m doing. I’m glad. That’s right, I’m going to be the Whitmans’ maid.”

“The way you seek revenge against Jeremy Whitman is so special,” Carter said, putting down the book in his hand before standing up.

His bottomless black eyes looked into Madeline’s glistening ones coldly.

“I’ll drive you over in a bit.”

“…”

Carter proposed this idea and Madeline felt that something was wrong. However, she knew it would be useless for her to reject him.

“Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Carter.”

After Madeline said that, she went upstairs.

She went back to the room Carter arranged for her. There were a few pieces of clothing in the closet.

However, after Madeline looked through them, they were all branded ones.

If she wore these as a maid in Whitman Manor, it would be a little inappropriate.

Madeline went to sit in front of the dresser while feeling washed out. She looked at herself in the mirror.

Her eyes were indeed beautiful and they looked so charming. However, she felt that they did not look as radiant as they did before.

Madeline lifted her hand slowly and removed her mask. After she saw the burns on her face, she felt as if a gust of cold air was invading her heart.

She did not want to see her face right now.

She could not even bear to look at the horrifying burn wounds and scars that were on both sides of her cheeks.

She did not dare to have any wishful thoughts. Could she really go back to the way she looked when she was burned to this degree?

Perhaps it would be extremely difficult.

Knock, knock, knock.

At this moment, sounds of knocking came from the door.

Madeline controlled her negative emotions. “Come in.”

After she said that, the door opened.

When she saw that it was the doctor who was treating her, Madeline boldly showed her horrific face in front of the doctor while feeling at ease.

“Miss Montgomery, I’m giving you this based on Mr. Carter’s wishes.”

The doctor then gave her a spray bottle.

“I heard you won’t be staying here for the next few days, so this is an antipyretic spray. If you feel any dryness, hotness, itchiness, or just overall unpleasantness on your face, you can spray some of this on your face and it’ll alleviate all of that.”

“Thank you, Dr. Lane.” Madeline took the antipyretic spray, and when she lifted her head, she saw Carter walking over as well. However, she noticed that he had changed and was wearing something abnormally plain and simple.

“Can we leave now? I’ll drive you.”

Madeline did not even have a chance to reject before Carter turned and walked away. As such, she could only follow him.

Carter asked his driver to stop the car at about 100 yards away from Whitman Manor before getting out with Madeline.

Madeline saw Carter holding a bag in his hand. She did not know what was inside, but she started to feel nervous.

She knew Carter was investigating Jeremy, but why would a man investigate another man?

Was there any beef between them that she did not know of?

Was this man finding a chance to get close to Jeremy?

What was in the bag?

Madeline thought about this the entire time she was walking. When she was at the door of Whitman Manor, Jeremy coincidentally came back with his car and stopped his car next to Madeline.
