Chapter 795
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Madeline met his questioning gaze calmly. âYes, I agree.â
Felipe really did not expect Madeline to promise him so easily.
He also did not know the reason why he was not feeling any joy at this moment.
On the contrary, he inexplicably thought of the person who he could not see alive or dead⦠Cathyâs corpse.
At this moment, a bodyguard walked to Felipeâs side and whispered a few words into his ear.
After Felipe listened to his words, he turned around and looked at Madeline. âI have to head out to deal with something now. I will look for you in your room tonight.â
âOkay, Iâll wait for your arrival.â Madeline agreed without any ambiguity.
Felipe was surprised by her unhesitating attitude.
It seemed that it was really difficult for him to understand the feelings of one who was a mother.
âSo Cathy, is this the reason you decided to commit suicide?
âBut when you were pregnant with my child for the first time, didnât you also decisively aborted it?
âWhy is it just that because I punished you and had you self-reflect in the snow, causing you to miscarry, that you chose to use suicide to protest against me?
âWhy?â
After Felipe left, the servant then brought Madeline to the room where she stayed in three years ago.
The layout of the room had not changed in the slightest. The blanket still had the smell of sunlight, and it was obvious that someone was tidying up the room every day.
Madeline unpacked her luggage and took out the aromatherapy box that she had brought along.
At the same time, her mobile phone rang and it turned out to be Jackson who was calling.
Madeline held back the urge to answer. She then immediately received another text message from Jackson.
[Mommy, Jack and Daddy will wait for you to return. Mommy, you must come back. Donât abandon Daddy and me.]
Seeing this line of text, Madeline felt her heart ache as her eyes quickly heated up.
Madeline held back her tears with difficulty and simply decided to turn off the phone.
âJack, Mommy will definitely come back together with your sister.â
âBut Jeremy, will you still be able to trust me and wait for me?â
â¦
On the cold winter night, it snowed once again.
Madeline had stayed in the bathroom of the room the entire afternoon, adjusting and testing the fragrance.
When a servant came by and told her to go downstairs to eat, Madeline went as if nothing was going on.
âMadam, this is the dinner that Master Whitman specially asked me to prepare. These are your favorite dishes from before.â The servant reminded her with a smile.
Madeline nodded and asked, âWhen will Felipe return?â
âIâm not sure about this. Master Whitman seems to have something important to deal with.â The maid smiled and turned to the kitchen.
Madeline simply took a few mouthfuls of the meal before returning to the room.
An hour later, Felipe returned.
His entire body was quite chilly, so he took a shower after returning to the room.
He pushed open the door to Madelineâs room and saw Madeline sitting on the sofa, quietly reading a book. He approached her.
âAre you ready?â Felipe asked straightforwardly while he checked out Madelineâs attire.
She was wearing a white bathrobe with her tender and delicate calves exposed. It was as if she was already prepared.
âCan we drink some wine first? Doing this with a man I donât love makes it difficult for me to get into the mood.â Madeline held a bottle of red wine and two wine glasses as she walked toward the bar.
Felipeâs eyes darkened. âYou donât love me now, but sooner or later, I will still make you fall in love with me.â
âThen, letâs wait and see if there will be such a day.â Madeline opened the red wine in front of Felipe, then poured it into two glasses.
Felipe seemed to suspect that Madeline might have done something to the red wine. He asked for the glass of wine that Madeline was about to drink and finished it immediately.
Madeline chuckled indifferently. As she was about to drink from the other glass in her hand, Felipe held her hand.
He approached her gently. A light and unique fragrance penetrated the tip of his nose. At that moment, his eyes were restored to the ones of warmth and tenderness from back in the day.
âEveline, do you know? The happiest time in my life was when I met you and the three years when you and I lived here together.â
