Chapter 183
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Old Master Whitman nodded, casting a meaningful look at Madeline as if he had seen through something.
In the car, Jeremy spoke first, âMiss Vera, thank you for fulfilling my unreasonable request.â
âSince itâs an unreasonable request, I hope there wonât be a second time,â Madeline said calmly, âMr.
Whitman, youâve taken up a lot of my time. Could you please send me back immediately? You should also go back and console your fiancé.â
Jeremy looked at Madeline and saw that her expression was cold and impatient. He said, âIâm really sorry for taking up your time with your boyfriend. Iâll treat the two of you to a meal next time.â
âThatâs not necessary. Iâm afraid my boyfriend will get jealous.â Madeline rejected.
Jeremy did not say anything else and headed back right after sending Madeline to the designated location.
Madeline stood next to the busy streets, looking down at her palms.
It felt like there was still some warmth in her hands.
Grandpa.
He actually still remembered her.
She smiled, feeling as if a lot of the wounds in her heart had just been healed.
That night, Madeline chanced upon news of Meredithâs birthday party as she surfed the internet.
The scoop was that not only did Jeremy not propose to Meredith during her birthday, he even left Meredith for a mysterious woman.
Everyone was frantically discussing who the mysterious woman was, and there were also some who said that Jeremy never liked Meredith to begin with. It was just Meredith who clung to him incessantly.
Meredith had borrowed the influence of Jeremy and the Montgomeries to turn into quite a famous makeup influencer these three years, amassing several million fans for herself. When the news broke out, her brainwashed fans flooded in, all frantically protecting Meredith.
They said that Meredith and Jeremy were a match made in heaven, claiming that their engagement was already set three years ago.
They even dragged Madelineâs name into it, claiming that their idol would have been married to Jeremy long ago if not for Madelineâs evil and despicable actions.
Somehow, the topic changed just like that, turning all threads of discussion into attacks on Madeline.
Meredith instead turned into a poor victim who was tortured for many years.
Her fans gave their kind sentiments, flooding Jeremyâs social media with them.
That was followed by more flaming of that mysterious girl and Madeline.
Madeline could imagine how happy Meredith was looking at those discussions online. She smirked as she left a message on Meredithâs social media. âMiss Crawford, do you like the gift I gave you?â
Not long after she sent that, Madeline was assaulted by an onslaught of foul private messages from many alternate accounts. The tone of those messages was exactly like how Meredith spoke.
Madeline casually made herself some coffee, feeling very satisfied while imagining Meredithâs current furious expression. She also knew that Meredith would not let the matter rest.
During the weekend, Madeline brought Lilian into the shop. Lily had a beautiful princess dress on as she played in front of the door.
She had a beautiful glass bead in her hand and was happily playing with it when it suddenly slipped away. Lillian immediately ran after it, and as she was about to get it, the bead was suddenly stepped on.
âI thought I saw a familiar face. Youâre that thing that stuck to Jeremy at KFC that day!â
Lily looked up curiously, her large and innocent eyes blinking as she looked at Meredith and her friend who was smiling sinisterly.
âAunty, are you calling me a thing?â
âWhoâs your aunt?!â Meredithâs eyes widened. Looking at that small face that looked similar to Madelineâs, her pent up rage surged. She raised her hand and aimed it at Lillianâs face. âShut up!â
