Chapter 435
Even though Madeline could guess this from Meredith’s replies, when Jeremy gave her an affirmative answer, she was still stunned all the same.
The cold wind from the early winter caressed her face. That bone-chilling coldness made Madeline recall the man’s cruelness back then.
She could never forget about his cruel and cold-blooded actions as well as his gaze.
After a while, Madeline curled her lips superficially. “You hate Madeline so much, so why did you even erect a tombstone for her? You’re even giving her roses. I don’t understand this,” she smiled as she said. She could not accept this reality.
He hated her so much that he wanted to crush her into dust, so why was he commemorating her passing?
Jeremy smiled when he heard that. His gentle gaze landed on Madeline’s face. “I know you won’t believe me because even I’ve lied to myself a few times.”
Madeline turned her head. “Lied to yourself?”
Jeremy smiled and looked at Madeline. “I lied to myself that her passing is just a lie and I lied to myself that… I didn’t love her.”
“…”
After he said that, Madeline felt as if her heart had been ripped out from her chest. A sarcastic smile spread across her face.
What an emotional speech. However, she could not feel any arousal of emotions or sweetness from his words. There was only pathetic hypocrisy.
She laughed as she turned around. She said slowly, “You brought me all the way here just to tell me you love Madeline?”
After she asked this question, Madeline chuckled lowly.
“I don’t know what happened between you two, but I know if a man truly loves a woman, he wouldn’t let her cry. If you really cared and was concerned about her, she wouldn’t have died just like that.”
Madeline clenched her fists that were hiding in her sleeves. She controlled the hatred in her heart as she looked at Jeremy coldly.
