Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

Chapter 277

After Madeline said that, the air around them froze instantly. The only sound that could be heard was

the autumn wind howling on the roof. It was blowing past their faces again and again.

Eloise’s expression changed as she looked at Madeline in disbelief. “W-What did you say? What did

you just say?”

Sean also strode toward Madeline at this moment. He was looking at her with a questioning gaze.

“What nonsense are you spewing? My biological daughter is here. She’s well and alive! How can you NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

curse her by saying that she’s been dead for three years?!”

Madeline smiled sarcastically before letting go of Eloise’s hand. “I’m not cursing your precious

daughter. I’m just repeating what was said,” she said calmly while pointing at Rose.

“I heard her saying this with my own two ears. She said your daughter has been dead since three years

ago.”

“What?”

Eloise and Sean looked at Rose in disbelief.

“Nonsense!” Rose denied. Despite feeling frantic, she did not show it. “Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery, don’t

be fooled by this woman. I’ve never said such things!”

“Vera Quinn, why are you slandering my adoptive mother? What do you want? Are you saying that I’m

not my parents’ biological daughter? Are you trying to push me to my death by saying that?” Meredith

yelled emotionally.

When Rose saw this, she said frantically, “Mer, don’t be emotional. Come down now. If anything

happens to you, Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery will be so upset.”

When Eloise and Sean heard that, they looked at Meredith worriedly. On the other hand, Meredith

shook her head with a sad and dispirited look on her face. “Mom, Dad, do you believe this woman’s

words? Do you think I’m not your biological daughter? Is that why you don’t care about me anymore?

Alright, fine…”

She laughed bitterly while feeling like all hope was lost. “Jeremy is ignoring me and you don’t care

about me anymore. So why should I keep on living…”

Meredith turned around after she said that. She took a step closer to the edge.

“Mer! No! I believe you! Why wouldn’t I believe you and instead believe someone else?” Eloise

screamed. Her face had turned pale from fear.

“You silly child! Why wouldn’t we care about you? Don’t do anything stupid!” Sean yelled to try and stop

her. His voice was thick with worry. He was also petrified.

Madeline’s heart went cold when she saw Eloise and Sean’s reactions.

They would still choose to believe Meredith even after she had told them the truth.

Her pink lips were tugged into a smile as she laughed in self-mockery.

‘Maybe it’s my face that’s making me look so untrustworthy, be it back then or in the present.’

“Vera Quinn, stop inciting disharmony! Get out of here now! If anything happens to my daughter, I’ll

never forgive you!” Eloise yelled with anger in her eyes, “Scram!”

Madeline looked into Eloise’s enraged eyes. Although she was smiling softly, she did not leave and

instead, walked closer to Meredith.

“Stop!” Sean roared at her. His tone was strict when he said, “If you dare to trigger my baby, I’ll make

you regret this!”

After he finished saying that, Madeline stopped. She looked at the pretentious Meredith with her

beautiful eyes.

“Meredith, your acting skills are so good. It’s such a waste that you didn’t go into showbiz.”

Meredith widened her red eyes aggrievedly. “Vera, w-what do you mean?”

“Don’t you understand what I’m saying?” Madeline scoffed and questioned, “Don’t you want to jump?

Hurry up. Don’t waste our time.”

“What did you say, you b*tch?” Rose was the first one to run forward. “Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery, look

at this woman! She’s so evil! She’s provoking Mer so that she’ll jump!”

“Vera Quinn!” Eloise yanked Madeline’s arm furiously. “Vera Quinn, you witch! You’re just as cruel as

Madeline!”
