Chapter 1513

Madeline’s heartbeat started to become erratic, and she was more than familiar with this rhythm.

This was the man she loved and the man who loved her, so they should be able to get along naturally.

At this moment, however, Madeline was abnormally nervous.

Yet, she was more worried that the red marks and scars after her scabs fell would appear once again.

She still did not have enough courage to face this man.

However, her voice…

While she was pondering about this nervously, Jeremy’s hand grabbed her shoulder and he walked in front of her.

It was dusk, and the sunset shone silently on Madeline’s face, creating a halo of light.

Jeremy looked at Madeline, and there was an excited glint flashing across his bottomless eyes.

However, it faded away as fast as it came.

After a few seconds, Jeremy smiled and parted his lips. “Linnie, why are you here?”

His tone was gentle and sounded like the breeze in April or May as his voice glided past Madeline’s ears.

Madeline was taken aback when she heard that.

‘If Jeremy is calling me that, it means that I don’t look much different from how I looked before.

‘However, he’s calling me ‘Linnie’. Is he mistaking me as that imposter, Naomi?

‘Or perhaps you’re also this gentle when you’re facing Naomi, Jeremy?’

Madeline could not help but overthink. When she was about to say something, she remembered the state of her voice and could only stay silent.

Even though her voice was not as coarse and rough as before, it still could not compare to her original voice.

Adam said he was not an expert in otorhinolaryngology, so he could only refer her to other professional doctors to treat her throat.

Jeremy lowered his head to get closer to Madeline when he sensed her discomfort. Then, he said softly, “Linnie, is your throat unwell? If it is, then you don’t have to talk.”

Madeline looked into Jeremy’s smiling and gentle eyes before nodding lightly.

Jeremy smiled lightly and turned around to walk next to Madeline. Then, he retracted the hand that was on her shoulder to pull her into his arms naturally.

Madeline’s heart started beating fast again. It had been so long since she felt this warm and affectionate hug.

This was also the embrace that she had longed for the most during this period.

“Linnie, it has been a long time since we ate in that restaurant. Why don’t we have some time for ourselves tonight?”

Madeline lifted her head and nodded when she heard Jeremy asking her softly in her ear.

Jeremy’s smile grew wider. He held Madeline as they walked to the restaurant.

On the way, Madeline saw Jeremy sending a message to someone on his phone.

There were some unhappy and happy memories in this restaurant. However, to Madeline, there were more happy memories here at the end of the day.

The last time she came here with Felipe, she had run into Jeremy.

Now that she thought about it, it seemed as if Jeremy was jealous last time.

It was dinner time and yet Madeline realized that the restaurant was almost empty.

When the manager saw Jeremy and Madeline, he smiled and brought them to the seat next to the window politely.

Jeremy took the menu and ordered some food. Since there was no one else, the food came pretty quickly.

Madeline felt at ease when she saw the food in front of her.

He knew her preferences clearly and all of the food on the table were her favorites.

He even ordered a bottle of red wine to pour for Madeline.
