Chapter 1496
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
âHmph, Eveline, why havenât you exposed me yet if youâre not concerned about this?â
She said, suddenly reaching out her hand to grab Madelineâs chin to force her to face her.
âTsk, tsk, youâre so ugly that I canât bear to look at you. Iâm curious how your face became disfigured?
Do you think itâs karma for killing Rye?â
Madeline slowly removed Naomiâs hand from her face, and there was an ominous glint in her cold eyes.
âIf thereâs karma in this world, then you best be prepared because evil people wonât have a good ending.â
âEvelineââ
âNaomi, Lana wasnât even my rival and you think you are?â
ââ¦â
Madeline did not want to waste her breath on Naomi. She picked up her mask to put it on before going upstairs to look for Eloise.
Naomi gritted her teeth in dissatisfaction. However, Madelineâs words served as a reminder.
Jeremy and the two children felt something for Madeline, and if this continued, then it would be detrimental to her.
Naomi pondered secretly. The more she thought about this, the more unwell she felt.
Ryan was dead and she was still reluctant to accept this until now.
She truly liked that man.
She only agreed to get plastic surgery to look like Madeline to please Ryan. She also hoped that Ryan would change his attitude toward her when he saw her face, even though she knew clearly in her heart that Ryan never liked her.
It would not matter if she looked the same as Madeline.
The day she visited Ryan in prison, Ryan was indeed surprised when he first saw her. However, when he realized she was not Madeline, he was visibly disappointed.
He did not love her.
That was a fact.
He was dead, and that was also a fact.
Naomi clenched her fist and gritted her teeth in dissatisfaction. âItâs enough to have only one Eveline Montgomery in this world.â
â¦
Madeline walked over to Eloiseâs room. When she was about to go in, she saw Sean taking care of Eloise. He was helping her wash up and dressing her considerately.
Madeline felt her heart warming up. She could feel Seanâs love for Eloise.
It had been so many decades, and it was such a rare thing for a man to still be so considerate toward his wife.
Madeline did not go in. After Sean pushed Eloise out, she went up and asked, âGood morning, Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery.â
Sean lifted his head and looked into Madelineâs eyes. He spaced out for a few seconds and said, âYouâre Quinny, right? I heard Jeremy saying that you saved my granddaughter yesterday. Thank you so much.â
Madeline smiled. âYou can go on with your business with no worries, Mr. Montgomery. Iâll take care of Mrs. Montgomery.â
Sean nodded and asked in curiosity, âQuinny, where are you from? To be honest, your eyes look so similar to my daughterâs. I had a special feeling the first time I saw you.â
Madelineâs heart warmed up when she heard this. She did not say anything and only pushed Eloise into the lift to go downstairs.
When she saw Naomi still at the dining table, Madeline pushed Eloise into the dining room as if nothing happened. Then, she prepared breakfast for her.
Naomi knew Eloise was delirious now, so she put on a fake mask and approached her. âMom, it looks like youâre getting better day by day. Eat more so that your body has more nutrition and you can recover faster.â
However, Eloise ignored Naomi. On the contrary, she grabbed Madelineâs hand.
Madeline looked over curiously. Then, she saw innocence and seriousness on Eloiseâs graceful face.
âWhatâs wrong, Mrs. Montgomery?â
