Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1926

Madeline walked onto the balcony. She habitually lifted her hand to touch the wedding ring on her ring finger, but she felt nothing there.

How could she have forgotten? She had taken off the ring to leave it on the carpet of the hotel back then.

It should be with Jeremy now.

She believed Jeremy must have seen the clues she left.

“Jeremy, I didn’t think we’d do this again. “But this time, he might completely erase my memory so that he can control my thoughts and memories.

“I hope you can understand why I had been so cruel back then. I know you’ll understand.”

Madeline murmured as she stared toward the clear Click. The sound of the door opening could be heard from behind her. Madeline could tell who it was from the footsteps alone.

“I think you should be ready.” Carter’s nonchalant voice drifted over.

Madeline stood her ground, unmoving, ignoring Carter.

Carter did not care that Madeline was ignoring him. He merely approached her slowly.

“Let me tell you something. Jeremy is already in St. Piaf.”

Carter said as he looked at Madeline. He thought Madeline would react strongly but, surprisingly, she was abnormally calm.

Carter could not understand why Madeline was acting like this. “Why do you not care at all?”

Upon hearing that, Madeline curled the corners of her lips into a slight smile. “My husband will definitely come to find me. This is expected, so why should I be surprised?”

Madeline spoke calmly, then lifted her clear eyes to meet Carter’s ominous gaze. “Are you here just to tell me this?”
