Chapter 310
Madeline, who had not gone far, smiled quietly.
This action of retreating to advance was very successful, and sure enough, it was her who Jeremy
cared more for now.
Jeremy kindly opened the car door for Madeline.
Madeline got into the car and saw Meredith bursting from anger in the rearview mirror. She felt happy
thinking about it.
After the car started up, Madeline said while looking embarrassed, “Although I’ve promised you to no
longer pursue the kidnapping case, it seems that they’re going to sue me instead? A robber acting like
a cop. I can’t bear this kind of grievance.”
“I won’t allow this to happen.” Jeremy promised.
Madeline looked at him with interest. “You’re really working hard for Meredith.”
Jeremy’s eyes sank when he heard the words. He wanted to deny it, but in the end, he did not say
anything.
After a moment of silence, he seemed to have thought of something. “You told me just now that you
have good news to tell me. What good news is it?”
Madeline raised her delicate eyebrows and smiled carefreely. “This matter…” she said faintly, looking at
Jeremy’s profile with beautiful, clear eyes.
“I want to go to your house tonight and have another taste of the candlelight dinner you made me back
then. Then, I’ll tell you what the good news is.”
Jeremy’s eyes flickered when he heard her words. When he saw the red light in front of him, he almost
rushed past it.
Lifting his eyes to meet Madeline’s crooked smile, his heartbeat was inexplicably fast for some reason.
Jeremy brought Madelene around and finally went to the supermarket. The two were like newlyweds.
She picked out vegetables while he carried the shopping basket for her.
After they were done shopping, Jeremy returned to the villa with Madeline.
Once they had put away the purchased ingredients, Jeremy received a call from the company and had
to head back for a bit. He offered to let Madeline into his room to wait for him to return.
Madeline went.
Upon entering the bedroom, an unspeakable ambivalence sprang up in her heart the moment she
stepped in.
She should hate it here.
However, seeing the furnishings and displays in the room looking almost exactly the same as three
years ago, she was in a daze.
The outdated but simple dresses were still hung in the closet while the sheets had not been changed.
She had bought them herself, but the color was much lighter now.
She had been full of joy then, but in the end, the day when he could gently and peacefully hold her to
sleep on their wedding bed did not come…
Suddenly, there was movement downstairs, interrupting Madeline’s thoughts.
She went out to look downstairs and saw Meredith opening up the ingredients she and Jeremy had
bought with a smile on her face. Then, she started to fiddle with them.
When it was becoming dusk, Meredith was almost done preparing all the dishes. She had also set up a
candlestick on the table. It looked like she was going to have a candlelight dinner with Jeremy.
Madeline then heard Meredith calling Jeremy, but the phone call did not get through and she switched
to leaving a voicemail instead. Meredith suppressed her voice and said in a pretentious tone, “Jeremy,
it’s Meredith. I’ve prepared a candlelight dinner for us. When are you coming back? We haven’t had
dinner together for a long time. I’ll wait for you to come back. You need to have dinner with me tonight
no matter what.”
Meredith hung up after speaking shyly. Then, she ran back to the guest room.
Madeline walked downstairs slowly. She walked into the kitchen, looked at the sumptuous dinner table,
and smiled.
Not long after, Meredith came.
Seeing Madeline sitting in the kitchen, Meredith’s expression suddenly changed. “Why are you here?
Who allowed you to sit here?!” Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Madeline raised her eyes leisurely and saw that Meredith was wearing a sexy dress that exposed some
of her chest. It was obvious that she wanted to seduce Jeremy.
She was also obviously wearing very expensive perfume, but because she had sprayed on too much, it
smelled pungent and cheap.
Madeline raised her eyebrows proudly and looked at Meredith with a gloomy expression. “I will be the
mistress of this house soon, so why can’t I be here? What about you? Why do you keep loitering here?
Do you want me to drive you off personally?”
