Chapter 998
She could not put a finger on what exactly was wrong, but he seemed like he was in pain. He kept asking himself the same question while pacing back and forth. Even his sharp and wise eyes had turned murky.
After a while, he picked up the divorce papers on the floor and tore them into pieces in front of Madeline.
“Linnie, I don’t want to divorce you. You’ll be my wife forever.
“I won’t disturb you and Pudding anymore. I’ll go out and keep watch for you outside.”
“…”
Madeline sat on the bed dumbfoundedly. She looked at Jeremy’s back and could not register what was going on.
After she came back to her senses and cleared her head, she felt heartache spreading all over her body.
She did not know if Jeremy would keep watch at the door the entire night, but she did hear some noises at the door.
Jeremy was pacing back and forth in front of the door as he clenched and unclenched his hand repeatedly.
He wanted to smoke again.
I was as if he could only relieve his frustration by smoking.
If he did not have an ounce of reason left in him, he might have forced Madeline to do something she did not want to.
‘Why is this happening?’
Jeremy was confused.
Before the accident yesterday, he had seen Madeline smiling at him while in a state of confusion.
Just now, Madeline was obviously fighting back, but for some reason, he felt more and more excited. He even felt that Madeline was just pretending to fight back when she also wanted this.
Jeremy looked at his fingers subconsciously.
Cigarettes.
