Chapter 1321
Jeremy sounded like he was pleading with her as he hugged her even harder for fear that she would slip away again, but Madeline seemed to be triggered by him as she struggled with her last remaining strength.
“Let me go, I have to wait for Jeremy! He’s coming to pick me up soon!”
Jeremy was heartbroken. His eyes were red as he sobbed. Then, he held up Madeline’s panicking face. “Linnie, I am Jeremy! I’m here to pick you up.”
Madeline paused and then raised her unique, beautiful eyes to meet Jeremy’s affectionate and gentle ones.
She looked at Jeremy seriously again for some time as if she was exploring something.
Seeing that Madeline was not so emotional anymore, Jeremy stroked her cheek lightly. “Linnie, take a closer look. I’m the love of your life, Jeremy.”
“Jeremy…”
“Yeah, Linnie, it’s me,” Jeremy answered without thinking.
Just when he thought that Madeline was gradually getting an impression of him, in the next second, a look of resistance appeared on her small face.
“You’re lying to me again. Jeremy hasn’t come yet. He asked me to wait for him, but he’s not here yet, so I have to continue to wait for him.” After Madeline finished speaking, she pushed Jeremy away and continued to walk to the door.
Jeremy hurriedly went to grab Madeline’s hand, but the moment he touched her finger, Madeline’s anger seemed to ignite. “Stop bothering me already!” she looked back and scolded.
Then, with an annoyed expression, she pushed away Jeremy’s hand that was approaching her. At that moment, her beautiful eyes were filled with extreme displeasure and anger.
She stared at Jeremy who was now dumbfounded and then warned him seriously, “Stop following me! You’re so annoying!”
Annoying.
The word penetrated Jeremy’s already injured heart with great lethality.
Despite knowing that Madeline was not intentionally behaving this way, how could Jeremy not feel distressed?
