Chapter 980
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
It had been so many years, and as his mother, this was the first time she saw her son cry.
âJeremy, youâ¦â
âMom, can you please take Pudding out? I have something to say to this guy.â Madeline controlled her emotions and handed Pudding to Karen.
Even though Karen had a lot of questions, she obliged and took Pudding out.
There were only the two of them in the room right now, and the silence was deafening.
Madeline walked to the side of the bed and took out some documents from under her pillow to hand them to Jeremy.
âSign this. Iâm divorcing you.â
Jeremy looked at the papers Madeline was handing him and felt as if his heart was being sliced by a million knives.
He sobbed soundlessly and did not take the papers. On the contrary, he knelt in front of her again.
Looking at her haggard face, he felt so much pain in his heart that he could not breathe. âLinnieâ¦â
âDonât call me Linnie anymore. Iâm not worthy of it.â
Madeline rejected coldly. She was forcing out a smile, but tears streamed uncontrollably from her eyes.
âDuring the days that you lost your memories, I kept telling myself that you only lost your memories temporarily and youâll remember soon. And when you do, youâll come back to me.
âI was wrong. Not only did you lose your memories, you even lost your humanity.
âYou set fire to my house and killed my parents just to make Lana happy! You also burned my heart that loved you into ashes!
âJeremy, I wonât forgive you no matter how many times you say youâre sorry.â
She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. This would be the last time she called his name.
âJeremy, youâre the man I love the most in my life and also the only man Iâm obsessed with and dedicated to. However, itâs time to let this go. From now on, Eveline Montgomery and Jeremy Whitman will not be husband and wife anymore. Weâre breaking all ties between us.â
Madeline threw the papers at Jeremy and walked past him to go out of the room.
Jeremy looked at the scattered papers on the floor as tears streamed down his face.
He came to Montgomery Manor absent-mindedly.
Looking at the ruins in front of him, he could not imagine himself setting fire to this place.
He closed his eyes and recalled everything he did to Madeline when he lost his memories. He could not even forgive himself, let alone ask her to forgive him.
That day when Madeline had to go into early labor because of Lana, he did not do anything to help her when she suffered in front of him.
She worked so hard to carry his child for him but he never looked at the child once.
âLana,â Jeremy uttered that womanâs name from his mouth coldly.
His eyes became sharp as he turned around.
In the villa.
Lana and Naomi were drinking at this moment.
âHmph, I donât know whatâs wrong with my brother. Why is he helping Eveline?â
âDoes Yorick have a crush on Eveline?â Naomi guessed.
âImpossible. My brother will never have a crush on her.â Lana denied it and downed her beer angrily.
âI donât even know what my brother is worried about. Who dares to go against us Stygian Johnsons when weâre in F Country? Eveline is nothing!â
Naomi nodded and looked at the screen of her phone. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. âLana! Someone told me that Eveline is blind!â
âWhat?â Lana slammed her mug on the table right after she lifted it. âEvelineâs blind? Really?â
âReally!â Naomi laughed out joyously.
Lana was so happy that she could not stop smiling. When she was about to say something, she saw Jeremy walking in, so she immediately walked over to him. âHans, let me tell you some good news.
Madeline is blind!â
