Chapter 414
Her smile was like a flower while her eyes were quick-witted, shining in his eyes like bright stars.
After hanging up the call, Jeremy got up and walked toward Madeline. “Vera, Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery want to invite us to their home tonight.”
Madeline’s actions of setting out his lunch paused slightly. “Why would they invite us to be their guest all of a sudden?”
“They have a request and hope you can help them.”
Jeremy looked at Madeline, then informed her of the specific content of the unreasonable demand.
Madeline turned around and pulled Jeremy’s tie with her slender fingers, revealing a womanly, charming, and lively smile.
“Looking at your face, I’ll agree.”
Jeremy’s eyes gently admired the bright face in front of him as his heartbeat accelerated more than a little…
At dusk, the light of the setting sun shone through the branches and was cut into pieces of gold as it sprinkled on the ground.
Madeline held Jeremy’s hand and they sweetly stepped through the Montgomeries’ door.
Eloise and Sean had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Madeline’s picturesque face coming into view, the eyes of the couple revealed yearning and joy.
This was all because this face was exactly the same as their baby girl’s.
They could no longer see that smile, and their remorseful spirits could only obtain a trace of comfort through this method now—even they knew that this was selfish.
Now, Eloise and Sean sincerely wanted to get close to Madeline.
“Miss Vera, Mr. Whitman, please take a seat.” Eloise gave them a very warm welcome, her eyes fixed on Madeline’s face. “The more I look at Miss Vera, the prettier you look. I’m sorry to have to trouble you with things tonight.”
“Mrs. Montgomery, just call me Vera.” Madeline smiled but still felt the irony in her heart.
She used to stand in front of them with this face, but what she got was cruel treatment.
Human hearts were curious while human nature was even more unpredictable.
