Chapter 226

Hearing this, Meredith looked like she was drained of strength.

It seemed that he was serious.

“Jeremy, how can you do this?” Eloise immediately sought justice for Meredith. “Meredith has been with you for so many years, and the child she gave birth to is already five years old. In the past five years, she has been maliciously discredited as the mistress. Now, because of that damned Madeline, you don’t want Meredith anymore?” she questioned.

Jeremy’s temples suddenly pulsated, and his gaze suddenly became dark.

He really did not want to hear people always using ‘d*mned Madeline’ when addressing Madeline.

“Shut up!” Old Master Whitman scolded back furiously, “Mrs. Montgomery, although this lady is your long-lost daughter, you shouldn’t use this manner to compensate for the debt you owe your daughter!

Madeline was also raised by her parents! If her parents know that she has suffered such a great grievance, they’d also feel sad and distressed!” Old Master Whitman heaved a long sigh as he said.

“That poor child, Madeline, having to bear such a crime even after she’s died…”

Sighing once more, he turned slowly and went upstairs.

Madeline pursed her lips. There was a burst of sourness surging from the bottom of her heart.

‘Grandpa.

‘Thank you for feeling sorry for me.

‘As for my parents…’

She looked at Eloise and Sean. They still spoiled Meredith without principle, even when she had done something heinous.

The air suddenly quietened. In the silence, Jeremy’s cold voice sounded. “I won’t fight with you for Jack’s custody. As matters stand, think about what you did wrong.”

As he spoke, he turned around coldly. Madeline looked at his back which looked unusually lonely for some reason.

“Jeremy! Jeremy, where are you going? Jeremy!” Meredith chased closely after him, but soon there was the sound of Jeremy’s car starting.

Meredith looked in the direction Jeremy had left. She clenched her fists, her eyes and heart full of unwillingness!

She had initially thought that Jeremy had called her parents over to announce the wedding date. She never would have thought that it would be their last supper!

No!

She would never give up like this!

She also would never give up on the chance to sit on the throne of being Old Madam Whitman just like this!

As soon as Jeremy left, Felipe left with Madeline.

Madeline sat in the passenger seat, feeling restless.

Suddenly, Felipe held her hand. “Your hands are cold. Is it because of what Eloise and Sean said earlier?”

Madeline smiled a little, feeling the warmth in her hands. However, she still could not stop the sourness in the corner of her eyes.

“Perhaps I’m destined to have no parents in this life.”

“Did you decide not to acknowledge them? But they’ll always be your biological parents.”

“It’s better not to acknowledge them.” Madeline laughed lightly. Even if she did not acknowledge them, she would not continue to let Meredith be the eldest daughter of the Montgomeries.

She would not let Meredith pretend to have the title that belonged to her, even if she did not want to go back.

She sighed. The car stopped at the traffic light. She looked out of the window and unexpectedly saw Jeremy’s car parked by the roadside. In the next second, she saw Jeremy coming out of a flower shop while holding a large bouquet of roses.

“Jeremy?”

“Hmm?”

Following Madeline’s line of vision, Felipe also looked over.

He saw Jeremy carrying a large bouquet of roses while getting into his car.

“Why did he buy so many roses?”

Could it be that he secretly had other women besides Meredith? Was that why he broke off his engagement with Meredith so simply? This was only Madeline’s guess, but the flames of hatred in her heart burned again.

She thought that he resolutely broke off the engagement with Meredith because he felt somewhat guilty toward her, but at this moment, that did not seem so.

“If we want to know, let’s follow him and look.” Felipe stepped on the accelerator and followed Jeremy’s car as he spoke.
