Chapter 449
Madeline finished saying that without hesitation. Her piercing gaze scanned across Jeremy’s face before she strode away.
Jeremy grabbed Madeline’s hand, causing her to stop in her tracks.
She peered at him with a cold gaze. “What’s wrong? Do you want to punish me with your barbaric ways? Jeremy, I’m not that Madeline who’d allow you to insult and humiliate her anymore. I’m not afraid of you!”
She looked into the man’s deep eyes fearlessly. There was an invulnerable expression in her eyes that made her look as domineering and arrogant as a monarch.
Jeremy was not angry. His passionate eyes were glued on Madeline’s flawless face as he looked straight at her.
Actually, he already knew the things she told him were just lies.
He would only have the chance to get close to her as long as he continued lying to himself.
Eventually, this day still came crashing on him.
After staying silent, Jeremy said with a small smile on his face, “I have a question for you.”
Madeline looked at the man in front of her coldly. Then, she heard him asking, “Do you still love me?”
Madeline chuckled lowly as if she had heard a funny joke.
After she stopped laughing, she peered at him. “Jeremy, don’t you think you’re pathetic when you asked that question? Love you? Do you even care about my love? I bet you’d think that it’s filthy for a woman like me to love you, right, Mr. Whitman?”
Jeremy felt a pang of pain in his heart. He heard the answer he did not want to hear.
He looked at Madeline’s hateful eyes dispiritedly.
