Chapter 1520
Naomi clutched her cheeks that were still hurting from the slaps. She felt that she could not continue this anymore.
Madeline was almost fighting head-on with her. What made her uncomfortable and feel strange the most was Jeremy’s attitude.
It was obvious that he favored Madeline more now.
‘Did he sense something?’
Naomi started to panic.
…
Madeline went back to the children’s room. After she got rid of all her displeasure, she smiled and accompanied Lillian and Jackson with benevolence and gentleness in her eyes. Finally, she left their rooms after she put them to bed.
She went to look for Eloise. After seeing that Eloise was sleeping soundly, she went back to her room feeling relieved.
After she took a shower, Madeline removed the makeup on her face. The red marks appeared once again in the mirror.
Indeed, it was just like Adam said. The red marks would not fade away so easily.
The effects of the gel were just like a mask with quick results. The effects after it was absorbed into the skin were just temporary.
Madeline sighed in disappointment and frustration. She put on her mask to walk back to her room and coincidentally, she saw Jeremy walking toward her.
“I have a lot of work to take care of today. You make a good cup of coffee, so can you make some coffee for me and rearrange my documents for me like last time?” Jeremy requested.
Madeline held her worn clothes and hesitated before nodding.
“Of course.”
‘I’m more than thrilled to be able to have this kind of treatment.
‘At least you’re not ignoring me like I’m a stranger. You’re even concerned about my emotions and protecting me from all angles.’
Madeline thought about this and showed a smile without her realizing it.
Time slipped away silently, and it was already the middle of the night unbeknownst to them.
Madeline opened her eyes to realize that she had fallen asleep on the sofa without her knowledge. There was even a blanket on her. She lifted her head and saw Jeremy sleeping while leaning against the chair.
She got up hurriedly and took the blanket to tiptoe over to where Jeremy was. She placed the blanket on him.
She thought she would be able to let him sleep like this, but while looking at the faint melancholy and exhaustion in between his eyebrows, Madeline could not help herself and lifted her finger to caress his eyebrows.
However, the man who was sleeping opened his eyes all of a sudden.
