Chapter 902
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
âI will have my secretary follow up with you on the contract if thereâs nothing else.â
After she said this, she smiled and pulled on Jeremyâs arm.
âHubby, letâs head upstairs.â
âAlright.â
Jeremy let Madeline walk them toward the elevator as she pulled on his arm. However, he was not calm.
Lana looked at the backs of Madeline and Jeremy. She heard the people around whispering about her.
She took a slender vape out of her bag and took a puff, exhaling the white smoke skillfully.
âEveline, the young lady of the Montgomeries.â She curled her lips and smiled before turning to leave.
In the elevator, the atmosphere at the moment was heavy with a deafening silence Jeremy carefully looked at Madelineâs calm but cold face.
âLinnie, last nightââ
âYou werenât negotiating business with anyone last night. You went to meet Lana. You stayed together all night?â Madeline immediately questioned while looking at the silent man. âShe likes you?â
Jeremy could not deny that Lana had bad thoughts about him, but he solemnly promised Madeline.
âEveline, I will not fall in love with any other woman except you.â
Madeline looked at Jeremyâs affectionate gaze before she was then pulled into his arms in an embrace.
He hugged her, stroked her hair, and kissed her gently. âI donât want anyone except you.â
Madeline did not question him anymore. She believed in Jeremy, but she did not believe in Lana.
After Jeremy went to a meeting, Madeline sent a screenshot of the âscoopâ this morning to Fabian, asking him to take good care of his sister.
When Fabian saw this, he immediately went to Lana and asked her about it. Lana admitted it readily, saying, âYes, I like Jeremy. Heâs such a handsome and masculine man, so how could I let him go?â
âLana, he has a wife!â
âI know. You like that woman named Eveline, donât you?â Lana joked with a vape between her fingers.
Fabian solemnly replied, âDonât talk nonsense. I just like Evelineâs face. If she was single, I might have chased after her, but she has a husband.â
âDonât you think the things snatched from other peopleâs hands are particularly fragrant?â Lana raised her arrogant gaze with a look of certainty. âYouâd better not interfere with my affairs. Otherwise, Iâll send you back to F Country.â
ââ¦â
Fabian was speechless. He sent a message back to Madeline, promising to keep an eye on Lana.
However, how could Lana be watched over by Fabian? At this moment, night was approaching. When she learned that Jeremy was still in the company, Lana took the initiative to look for him again.
Jeremy was waiting for Madeline, who was in the bathroom, to return. Seeing Lana coming, he was annoyed and dismissed her. âTalk to my secretary about the contract. I have nothing else to say to you.â
Lana took a breath of smoke, approached Jeremy, and exhaled out the smoke gently.
The smoke blew over and there was no pungent smell, only an indescribable fragrance.
Jeremy was in a daze when he heard Lana say to him in a soft tone, âWhy not? Did you forget how happy we were last night? Anyway, since your wife trusts you so much, how about we keep it going tonight? Iâll be waiting for you at the hotel. â
A strong feeling of disgust arose within Jeremyâs heart. He wanted to avoid Lana, but somehow, seeing Lanaâs face getting closer and closer, he seemed to be frozen. He could only look at her like this.
When Madeline came back from the bathroom, she heard Lanaâs charming voice coming from the inside as soon as she walked to the door of the office.
âJeremy, do you think Iâm pretty? Compared to your wife, Eveline, who do you find more appealing?â
