Chapter 651
Madeline had followed Felipe out to shop. After a round of shopping, Felipe took Madeline to this famous outdoor cafe.
As soon as she walked onto the terrace, Madeline saw a woman leaning in the arms of a man not far in front.
She glanced at them indifferently, but as she was about to look away, she realized that the man was Jeremy.
Jeremy was holding a woman.
“Eveline, what’s wrong?” Seeing Madeline staring blankly in a certain direction, Felipe asked in a concerned tone.
Madeline hurriedly turned her head. “It’s nothing. I just think that this cafe is very special.”
She sat down on the side casually, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the woman who was in Jeremy’s arms just now. She was currently sitting opposite Jeremy.
Felicity sat with her back facing Madeline. Madeline could not see her appearance. However, just by looking at her back, Madeline felt her manner as a woman to be quite good, so her appearance should be decent as well.
When the waiter handed over the menu, Madeline looked back.
On the other side, Felicity had sat down and apologized to Jeremy with a smile on her face. “I’m sorry, Mr. Whitman. I’ve just bought these shoes and am not accustomed to wearing them. Thank you for helping me just now.”
Jeremy’s jade-like face was cold. “I hope there’ll be no next time.”
The smile on Felicity’s face froze, and two seconds later, she gave a seemingly generous response. “Don’t worry, Mr. Whitman. There will be no next time.”
Madeline ordered a cup of iced coffee and could not help looking in Jeremy’s direction.
Felipe naturally noticed but pretended not to see anything. He then made an excuse to go to the bathroom and walked away.
Madeline and Jeremy were facing each other from a distance of more than ten yards, but Madeline realized that Jeremy did not seem to have noticed her presence.
He had been talking to the woman sitting across from him when Madeline suddenly noticed Jeremy holding a coffee cup in his left hand. She clearly saw then that his ring finger was bare.
Sure enough, he had taken off the ring.
Madeline smiled suddenly, laughing at her self-righteous and naive thoughts.
