Chapter 1521
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Madeline thought she was being very gentle, but she still woke Jeremy unexpectedly.
She did not want to disturb his rest, but Jeremy was indeed awake now.
Madeline was at a loss, so she tried to look for an excuse. âMr. Whitââ
âLinnie.â
ââ¦â
Jeremy suddenly called out to Madeline with this name.
Madeline was stunned and lowered her eyes to look into Jeremyâs eyes. Under the pale moonlight, his bottomless eyes that looked like the night appeared a little dazed.
âLinnie, itâs great to have you here,â Jeremy lamented. His thin and alluring lips were curled into a happy smile.
As he was smiling, he spread his arms to hold Madelineâs waist. Then, he placed his head gently on her body.
Madeline was stunned. Was he dreaming? Was he groggy with sleep?
She could not understand this. However, she did not want to find out for herself at this moment.
Madeline held Jeremyâs head gently, and her fingers glided across his cheek.
âIâll always stay with you and I wonât leave you.â
âLinnie.â
âYeah.â
âI wonât let anyone bully you,â Jeremy suddenly promised Madeline.
Madeline smiled. âI know. You wonât let anyone bully me, and youâre doing just that. Itâs very late now, just go to sleep if youâre tired.â
âI want to sleep with Linnie.â Jeremy lifted his head. At this moment, for some reason, he sounded as if he was simpering.
Madeline had never seen Jeremy acting so childishly before. When she was wondering how she would sleep with him, the man tightened his grip on her waist.
Madeline was caught off guard and fell into Jeremyâs arms. They were looking into each otherâs eyes in such close proximity. Jeremyâs eyes still looked deep and dazed.
However, Madeline was at a loss. She wanted to stand up, but not only was Jeremy trapping her limbs, he even ripped off her mask suddenly.
Madeline parted her lips in surprise. Before she could scream, Jeremy pressed his lips against hers.
It happened all too suddenly and Madeline lost the ability to think. At that moment, her brain turned blank.
She did not know whether Jeremy thought he was dreaming or what, but Madeline started to lose control and was being drawn to him.
While she was distracted, Jeremy turned around and pressed her against the sofa. His kisses caused ripples to form in her heart.
âLinnie, I miss you so much,â Jeremy said softly in Madelineâs ears.
Madeline felt her ears turning hot as heat started to rise in her cheeks as well. At the same time, her heartbeat started to speed up too.
Suddenly, she felt as if she was dreaming, but this might be a beautiful dreamâ¦
Then, night turned to day.
Madeline slowly opened her eyes from sleep and realized she was lying on the bed in the bedroom.
She sat up abruptly, and the blanket fell from her shoulder. Her naked shoulder reminded her of the confusion that happened in the middle of the night.
Madelineâs face started to heat up and become red.
âWhat happened last night was not a dream, right?
âHowever, how did I end up in my bed in the bedroom?
âDid Jeremy carry me back here?
âHe carried me?
âWho does he see me as?â
