Chapter 151
Jeremy yelled tyrannically, causing Meredith to quickly turn around and run out in fear.
No one dared to go into the room anymore. At the same time, no one understood why Jeremy was acting like this.
Everyone in Glendale knew that Jeremy loved Meredith, but now, he was reluctant to let go of his dead ex-wife’s body. What was going on?
Daniel knew about Madeline’s death from Adam. He ran over the moment he heard the news but was stopped outside the operating theatre.
He fought with Jeremy’s bodyguards for a while. Then, the door opened and Jeremy walked out.
When he saw Jeremy, Daniel escaped from the bodyguards and ran toward the man.
“Jeremy, you murderer! You killed Maddie!” he yelled as he was about to punch Jeremy.
Jeremy grabbed Daniel’s hand indifferently, lifting his head to look at him with red eyes. “I said, no one’s allowed to come and disturb my wife. Scram!”
“Your wife?” Daniel was amused. “Jeremy, just ask yourself, when have you ever treated Maddie like she was your wife? Now that you’ve tortured her to death, you’re here pretending like you have such deep love for her. Don’t you think you’re being hypocritical and ridiculous?”
It seemed as if Daniel’s words had triggered the other man because dark clouds started appearing in Jeremy’s eyes and on his face.
He pushed Daniel away, overwhelmed by anger. However, in the end, he only said one word. “Scram!”
He shut the door of the operating theatre and once again, he locked himself and Madeline in the same enclosed space.
It was not real.
Madeline had to be pretending.
Then, he should put on this act with her. She would not be able to keep this up after some time.
However, he could not handle this anymore. No normal human could be able to withstand this for so long.
As per Jeremy’s request, Madeline’s body was frozen and preserved.
Jeremy went back to the house for a while, but when he came back, he noticed that Madeline’s body was gone.
He looked all over for her like he was crazy. He even hoped that Madeline had run away because she could not keep up with her act anymore. However, in the end, he saw from the security footage that Ava had asked someone to take Madeline’s body away.
Jeremy went to the funeral parlor with the clues from the security footage.
When he was about to go in, he saw Ava walking out with an urn.
Jeremy was frozen in the snow. At this moment, he felt as if he was committing a sin from just breathing.
Ava was crying heavily, and when she saw Jeremy, she walked around him.
Jeremy’s eyes were red as he chased after Ava before stopping her. “Give it to me.”
