Chapter 1117
After Madeline hastily put on her clothes and cleaned up, she rushed downstairs.
When she was at the front door, she saw Jeremy standing cool in the courtyard.
He was wearing a coat, and his refreshing ash-colored short hair was fluttering in the wind. On the other hand, his smiling amber eyes were looking at the completely stunned Jackson.
“Daddy?”
Jackson had his backpack on while he ran toward Jeremy in surprise and joy.
Jeremy bent down and picked Jackson up.
“Daddy! It’s you! You’re finally home!” Jackson widened his beautiful eyes. Despite the changes in Jeremy’s appearance, Jackson was not suspicious of anything at all.
This was his daddy!
Jeremy looked at his son and smiled. “Did you miss me?”
“Of course!” Jackson answered without hesitating. Joy flooded his handsome face. “Lily missed you too,” Jackson said, pointing at Lillian who was walking toward them.
However, when Jeremy saw Lillian walking toward him, the smile and softness on his face disappeared.
He placed Jackson down but did not carry Lillian who was already in front of him.
Lillian could not speak, so she walked to him and held his leg. Then, she lifted her beautiful eyes to look at him while smiling, showing him her adorable dimples.
Even though Lillian did not say anything, her eyes had already expressed her fondness toward Jeremy.
Madeline watched this scene from afar, and her eyes started to water as she felt her heart melt.
She thought Jeremy would pick Lillian up as well. She thought he would pick this child up to give her the warmth and hugs that he did not have the opportunity to give before.
However, to Madeline’s surprise, she saw Jeremy pulling Lillian’s hands away and leaving coldly with Jackson.
