Chapter 14
Madeline was about to be taken away. At this moment, a poised woman walked over to Mrs.
Langford and mumbled something in her ear.
Immediately. Mrs. Langford’s expression changed. She looked at Madeline in disbelief and then said that it was all a misunderstanding.
Madeline did not know what was going on. When she looked at the woman's face, she noticed that she was glaring at her in disgust.
Her eyes made Madeline extremely uncomfortable. At this moment, Meredith walked over. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Maddie. that’s Jeremy’s mother. It’s fine now. You don't have to go to the station anymore. but you have to promise me not to do something as embarrassing as this again.”
Meredith said in a concerned tone. Madeline tried to explain, but Jeremy’s mother walked away after looking at her in dissatisfaction.
Meredith smirked. She followed after her and stayed by Jeremy's mother’s side. It was as if they were a loving mother and daughter-in-law duo.
Some sniggers sounded in her ears, and there were also some light chuckles.
Mrs. Whitman was someone that unsophisticated to even be involved with theft! It was a colossal joke.
Madeline felt aggrieved and helpless when faced with the suspicious gazes around her. Thus. she turned around and went into the house. Finally, she spotted Jeremy.
However, when Jeremy saw Madeline covered in dust, sloppily dressed, he wore a look of agitation on his face.
“Today is my mother’s birthday. Not only are you late. but you're also wearing this. Plus, you even dared to steal from someone. Are you bored with life?”
He accused in a frigid tone.
Madeline smiled bitterly. She had gone to the hospital because of his rough treatment the night before. Not to mention, she had almost lost their child.
Before she could register the fact about the tumor when she was in the hospital. she had to rush here. To top it off. the moment she stepped foot past the door. she was met with an incident. She did not even have time to dress up.
Madeline looked at the man’s solemn face. “Jeremy. I didn’t steal anything. It’s Meredith...”
“You're light-fingered, and you still want to blame Meredith for finding the bracelet in your pocket. Madeline. aren‘t you ashamed of yourself?”
‘Madeline. arent you ashamed of yourself?’
Madeline felt a suffocating pain in her heart. She watched Jeremy leave and headed upstairs aggrievedly.
It was Jeremy's room in the old manor. and it was her first time entering it. There were a few expensive dresses in the closet that were all from international big brands.
When Madeline was about to change. Meredith walked in.
She looked at Madeline’s wretched look and laughed. “Madeline. you wh*re. You don’t even look like a queen with a crown on.”
Madeline chuckled lightly. “However, to be honest, I am indeed the queen while you're just a shameless mistress.”
“You...” Meredith was furious. “Don't feel so pleased with yourself. Madeline. Jeremy will divorce you sooner than you think! Also, Jeremy will make you and the child in your stomach vanish!”
“You should know best about who's the one with his child.” Madeline looked at Meredith with hatred. “You're the one who planted the bracelet on me. right?”
“Hmph. so what if it was me? Who's going to believe you?” Meredith did not bother to put up an act anymore. She laughed as she felt pleased with herself. “Sooner or later, I'll be Mrs. Whitman.”
After Meredith left. Madeline quickly took a shower and put on a Chanel two-piece suit.
Additionally. she put on some light makeup.
Her eyes were bright when she looked into the mirror. She looked elegant and refined.
Nevertheless. no matter how good looking she was, Jeremy would not even spare her a glance.
When she thought about her condition, she touched her flat stomach and smiled.
Maybe it was just like Ava had said, her fondness of Jeremy would not last because her life would end soon.
The door of the room swung open at this moment, and Jeremy urged her impatiently.
Madeline hid her worries and turned around to smile at Jeremy warmly.
There was a glint of shock in the man’s eyes. He walked next to Madeline and reached out his hand to grab her waist intimately.
