Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1019

Chapter 1019

Staring at Ryan’s outstretched hand, Madeline could not help but think of Jeremy.

Just what did she need to do to completely cut this man out of her mind and life?

Was she supposed to throw herself into a new feeling?

“Life is hardly ever smooth-sailing, Eveline. Give yourself a chance to start over, and give the people who care about you a chance as well.”

Ryan reached out to Madeline.

However, before his hand could touch her, a mocking voice sounded in the air.

“Tsk. There are so many guests waiting for you outside, Miss Montgomery, and you still have the time to waste it flirting with a man over here? I should’ve known that charity is always done for the sake of image.”

Madeline and Ryan looked up to see Lana approaching them in a seductive evening gown.

Standing beside her was Jeremy Whitman.

Madeline had not seen the man again after she decisively broke it off with Jeremy by the seaside in April Hill.

Yet here he was, attending the charity gala with Lana on his arm.

Madeline averted her gaze coldly and turned to Lana. “The host didn’t send you an invitation. Who let you in?”

“You’re right, but the host sent one to Whitman Corporation, didn’t they?” Jeremy parted his lips, his peach blossom eyes staring at Madeline’s icy and otherworldly appearance.

Lana quirked her lips proudly. “Did you hear that, Miss Montgomery? My boyfriend received an invitation from the host. As his girlfriend, can’t I even come along to take a look?”

“Please, help yourself.” Madeline fired back without restraint. “However, this is a charity gala, after all. The guests present are all charitable and loving people, but what about you? You’re just a vile and heinous woman.”
