Chapter 1553

Hearing the word Jeremy uttered, Madeline was completely stunned.

She widened her stunning eyes that were filled with shock as she looked at the man who was slowly standing up. Despite the height difference, their eyes would always meet in the same straight line.

Madeline’s heartbeat was chaotic, and so were her thoughts. However, she had clearly seen Jeremy’s frivolous gaze a second before. Yet, at this moment, it had gradually become affectionate and soft.

“You haven’t forgotten what I said, right, Linnie?”

His voice was as soft as the spring breeze as it brushed past her ears.

“That day, after having a candlelight dinner with you and watching the fireworks on the street, I said that no matter how the years change or whether your beauty fades, you’ll always be the most perfect and flawless woman in my heart.

“No matter what you become, you’re the only one I love in my life.”

What Jeremy said that night was spilling out from his lips again.

The corners of Madeline’s eyes started to feel warm uncontrollably.

It turned out that at that time, he had deliberately said those words.

It was because he had long felt that she was his Linnie, so he was telling her that on purpose.

“Linnie, no matter how ugly or unbearable you look, you’ll always be my Linnie. Only you can move me in this world.”

As Jeremy’s words fell, the tears in Madeline’s eyes also came streaming down.

Jeremy bowed his head and pressed his lips gently on the corner of Madeline’s eye that was soaked with tears.

Madeline felt her heart tremble as she closed her eyes softly.

‘It turns out that he already knows.

‘He felt everything and saw through everything from the beginning.’

That was why he got close to her, got intimate with her, and said all those words that sounded frivolous and amorous.

He did all of those because he knew she was the person he loved.

That was all.

Jeremy kissed away the tears in the corners of Madeline’s eyes. He reached out his long fingers and hooked them to the strap of the mask behind Madeline’s ear.

Madeline did not hide from him. She allowed him to take off her mask just like that.

Then, what came into his vision was a fair, pristine, and flawless face with no makeup.

Although Madeline’s face had already been tattooed in his heart, at that moment, a stunned glint still flashed across Jeremy’s eyes uncontrollably.

At the same time, he felt a hint of joy and luck.

It was because he thought of the earlier time when he accidentally saw her face that was full of scars which caused him so much heartache.

Jeremy pulled Madeline into his arms and hugged her tightly.

“Linnie, you’ve suffered so much.”

He was in distress. He did not know what exactly had happened to her, but he was sure that those experiences must have been quite painful.

What had happened and what could have disfigured her face like this?

Yet, for Madeline, she felt safe and blessed while nestling in Jeremy’s chest at this moment.

“When did you find out?” Madeline asked with a tearful smile, “You already knew, so why didn’t you expose me?”

“It was the day you looked at me in the rain. At that moment, I felt that my heartbeat was not right,”

Jeremy explained, “I couldn’t stand to see you getting caught in the rain, so I gave you the umbrella.”

Madeline was pleasantly surprised and pleased to receive this answer.

It turned out that he had a feeling about her from the very first glance.
