Chapter 720

Jeremy finally spotted Cathy. His gaze looked solemn as he asked, “Where’s Felipe? Where did he take Linnie?”

Cathy let out a sigh of relief and pointed at Felipe’s room without hesitation.

Jeremy sped over and kicked open Felipe’s door.

When he saw Madeline lying on the bed half-naked, he clenched his fists and grabbed Felipe’s collar.

He was glaring at Felipe with his eyes like knives.

“Felipe, you b*stard! What are you trying to do to Linnie?”

Felipe dodged Jeremy’s punch and lifted his sharp gaze calmly. Then, he replied in an icy tone, “The woman on the bed belongs to me. What do you think I’m about to do to her?”

“Linnie doesn’t even love you, so you best get rid of that thought!” Jeremy pushed Felipe away and leaned down to button Madeline’s clothes. Then, he picked her up. “Felipe, you’re so despicable for trying to get a woman this way.”

He mocked sarcastically before leaving with Madeline in his arms.

Felipe pressed his lips together, his eyes engulfed by flames of anger. They looked horrifying.

“Heh.” He scoffed. He removed his tie with his long and slender fingers, but the fire was still raging in his chest.

Then, he made a call.

After a while, Meredith appeared in front of him timidly.

Felipe’s gaze became more and more terrifying as he looked at the scarred face.

“Do you know why I saved your life and asked you to get plastic surgery to look like Eveline?” Felipe’s voice was like a bone-piercing chill. “I asked you to do something and you didn’t even carry it out properly. I wanted Jeremy to be blind forever but he miraculously regained his vision. Hmm?”

“I… I had no idea that he has regained his vision…” Meredith’s voice was shaking as she was petrified.

“Mr. Whitman, please give me another chance. I’ll do what you want perfectly. I’ll make sure that Madeline and Jeremy won’t end up together!”

Felipe looked at the face that was similar to Madeline’s and said coldly, “Listen closely to what you have to do next. If there are any mistakes, you’re going straight to hell.”

…

On the other side, Jeremy carried Madeline into the taxi.

He was heartbroken when he saw Madeline frowning in pain.

He was feeling dispirited a while ago in front of the restaurant as he thought that Madeline had chosen Felipe.

However, he felt something was amiss when he recalled how she did not reject the kiss that morning.

His Linnie was not a two-timing woman. She would only have him and him only in her heart.

Indeed, he could tell that Felipe had drugged her from looking at the state she was in. That was why she was only half-conscious.

He felt lucky that he had followed them. On the way, he called Eloise to tell her to pick the children up from the restaurant.

“Hot…” Madeline muttered, “I’m so hot. Water…”

“Linnie, bear with this. I’m taking you home now.” Jeremy held her and felt that there was something wrong with Madeline’s body temperature.

At this moment, she was like a clingy kitten as she nuzzled against him. It was as if she was looking for something to cool herself down.

Jeremy’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He clenched his fists and suppressed the emotions that his heart elicited.

However, Madeline’s voice was getting more and more amorous. As such, Jeremy asked the driver to stop at a hotel nearby and got a room for her.

When they were at the door, Jeremy kicked the door open and brought Madeline into the bathroom.

He turned on the shower and fetched her a glass of cold water. “Linnie, have some water.”

Madeline took two sips of the water groggily, but she was still feeling extremely hot.

She lifted her intoxicated face and narrowed her stunning eyes to look at the man in front of her.

After a few seconds, she lifted her hand and grabbed his collar. Then, she pushed him against the wall dominantly.

Madeline’s red face was getting closer and closer to Jeremy’s.
