Chapter 663
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Madelineâs tone suddenly became serious.
Jeremy seemed surprised, but the darkness in front of him prevented him from capturing Madelineâs expression at that moment. He could not even guess why Madeline was looking for him.
âMy car is just at the front. Jeremy, letâs find a place to sit down and talk.â
Her proactive invitation made Jeremyâs heart beat faster.
However, he smiled and refused. âNo, Miss Montgomery. I have something else to do.â
Madeline glanced at Felicity who was waiting at the side. âItâs alright. You can go out with your girlfriend first. Weâll make an appointment again.â
Girlfriend?
Jeremy then came to understand. He felt a pain in his heart.
âJeremy, why are you disappointed?
âDidnât you want her to misunderstand?â
He mocked himself silently but still gave Madeline a warm smile. âPlease help yourself, Miss Montgomery.â
He got into Felicityâs car after he said that. He had behaved nonchalantly from beginning till the end, but only he knew how much he cared. He cared about every word Madeline said and every breath she took.
Felicity curled her red lips and smiled. She glanced over at Madeline before driving away.
The look in her eyes made Madeline feel that it was particularly familiar.
This feeling made Madeline uncomfortable.
Seeing Felicity and Jeremy driving away, Madeline subconsciously followed them.
She did not expect that Felicity would bring Jeremy to a hotel to get a room.
âSo Jeremy, it seems youâre already starting a new relationship to let go of me completely, right?â
Madeline gripped the steering wheel tightly. She did not know what she was doing. Was she concerned that the reason Jeremy lost his sight was because of her?
Madeline could not figure it out and silently opened the backed-up document in her phone which she had copied from the computer. There were thousands of text files in it. It was Jeremyâs diary after her death.
She read the notes word for word, imagining Jeremyâs heartache and regret over her departure during those thousand days and nights.
After an hour, Madeline saw Jeremy coming out of the hotel, followed by Felicity. However, the distance between the two of them was not like a coupleâs.
Jeremy had issues with his eyesight, but Felicity was not helping him.
He fumbled to the side of the street alone, got in a car, and left.
Although the sky was dark, Madeline clearly captured the unhappy look on Felicityâs face.
Madeline felt as if she had seen this dissatisfied look before.
However, Madeline did not think too much of it. She quickly followed the taxi that Jeremy had gotten on.
Unexpectedly, she followed the taxi to the beach of April Hill.
There was no one at the beachside at this time and season.
Jeremy sat alone on the bench by the sea for half an hour.
The taxi was also waiting by the side. It could be assumed that Jeremy had paid and booked it.
However, the driver seemed to be a little bored while waiting. He was holding a pack of cigarettes and smoking while walking forward.
Seeing this, Madeline opened the car door and moved a little closer to Jeremy.
In the dark blue night, Jeremy was like an intricate and elegant ancient Greek statue that was sitting motionlessly in the wind.
If it were not for him gently turning the ring on his finger all the time, Madeline would have thought that he was paralyzed.
However, there was a sudden drizzle and Madeline thought for a moment before starting to walk toward Jeremy.
Just as she stepped forward, three rakish thugs rushed up from behind and surrounded Madeline.
âHey, since when was there a beauty around here?â
âTsk tsk, how pretty.â
