Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 27

Madeline went to look for Jeremy immediately. The man looked as refined as always. He was sitting at his desk reading a few documents; he did not even lift his head.

When he heard that Madeline wanted to loan three hundred thousand from him, he burst out laughing. “Madeline, money is just a number for me. However, I won’t give you a single cent.”

Madeline gritted her teeth and continued pleading, “My grandpa has lung cancer, and he needs the money for his treatment. Jeremy, please, loan me the money. I’ll definitely pay you back.”

“Pay me back? With what?” He knew she did not have the ability to pay him back. However, he suddenly said, “I can loan you the money, but you have to agree to what I asked that day.”

Madeline clenched the corner of her shirt.

He wanted Meredith to take her position. Consequently, she would become his mistress.

Madeline suppressed the pain in her heart. She tried her best to stay calm. “Jeremy, aside from that, I can agree to anything.”

Jeremy slammed his documents shut and stood up. His eyes were icy. “Aside from that, don’t even think about getting a single cent.”

When Madeline saw that he was about to leave, she no longer cared about anything. She grabbed his arm. “Jeremy, please help my grandpa. We can’t delay his treatment.”

Jeremy chuckled lowly. There was no warmth in his eyes. “So what? What does that have to do with me?”

Madeline felt a chill on her back. All of a sudden, the man in front of her looked oddly foreign and cold-blooded.

As Madeline’s mind wandered, she felt pain in her chin. When she came back to her senses, her eyes were met with Jeremy’s sinister eyes. His eyes and eyebrows looked delicate; however, there was sense of mockery in them.

“For the sake of Mer, I’ll give you an alternative. Since you want money so much, you can sell your body. Three hundred thousand dollars shouldn’t be a problem with your face.”

He pushed her away and walked away carefreely.

His icy words hammered on Madeline’s heart. The tumor in her body started to act up once more.

She pressed on where the tumor was and took out a painkiller before swallowing it.

The man’s cold words were still ringing in her ears as she tried her best to swallow her tears. Madeline gritted her teeth and stood up.
