Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1590

Chapter 1590

After the door was opened, Madeline saw a room filled with warm tones that was decorated comfortably.

She felt curious. There was even such a feminine room in this manor and it was in the basement.

While Madeline was feeling curious, she heard the man’s deep and charming voice from her side.

“You’re here.”

Madeline froze and turned around to see Carter sitting in front of a desk. There was nothing on it aside from a beautiful, sparkling, and translucent crystal ball.

However, Madeline was not in the mood to admire this. She walked in front of the desk and looked at the man who had an unknown expression on his face. She thanked him sincerely, “Mr. Carter, I’m really thankful for you for saving my life and allowing me to go back to my home. I didn’t mean to lie to you back then, but—”

“You found out that I’m gathering information on Jeremy Whitman, so as his wife, you were curious but at the same time concerned for him. That’s why you decided to beat me at my own game and stay with me to scout out more information, is that right?”

Carter was right about what Madeline had been thinking in her heart back then. However, at this moment, she could only admit magnanimously.

“Yes. I’m still curious until now. Why are you investigating my husband, Mr. Carter?”

“Uh-huh.” There was a rare smile on Carter’s icy yet handsome face.

He lifted his bottomless dark eyes and looked straight into Madeline’s eyes.

“Before I answer you, can you answer my question?” His tone rarely sounded so gentle. His eyes were the same too.

Madeline looked into his eyes as a gesture of courtesy. “What do you want to ask me, Mr. Carter?”

Carter lifted the corners of his lips. “What’s your name?”

Madeline was flabbergasted and stumped for words for a while. She said, “My name is Eveline Montgomery.”

“Who’s Jeremy Whitman to you?” Carter asked quickly right after.

“He’s my husband.”
