Chapter 1555
“Jeremy Whitman.”
Madeline pretended to be angry and interrupted him. Her eyes that looked like the stars were staring fixedly at him.
“In this life, you only have feelings for me, and it’s the same for me as well.”
The melancholy between Jeremy’s eyebrows disappeared for a while. “I only pretended to be jealous just to hear you say this, Linnie.”
“Uh-huh, were you?” Madeline raised her eyebrows. “If that’s the case, I want to tell you one more thing.”
“What’s up?”
“I’m engaged to him.”
“What?” Jeremy was shocked, and his expression changed transiently. “What do you mean by that?”
“Didn’t you say you’re not jealous?” Madeline’s face showed a rare but playful smile.
Jeremy was anxious now. “Linnie, tell me what’s going on.”
Seeing the man’s anxious appearance, Madeline explained in a neither too fast nor too slow manner, “In order to not owe him any favors, I cooperated with him to put on a show.”
After Jeremy listened to Madeline’s explanation, the sadness on his handsome face did not disappear. It only became more intense.
Madeline got closer to him. “Are you jealous now?”
Jeremy raised his deep and electrifying eyes. “Even if you’re just playing along according to the circumstances, you can’t put on such a performance.”
He was indeed bothered.
However, it had not been Madeline’s intention to do this. It was just that she did not have the right to choose. More importantly, she had to gain Carter’s trust this way to figure out what he wanted to do to Jeremy.
After seeing that Jeremy was still very upset, Madeline took the initiative to approach him.
“Jeremy, don’t worry. I’ll protect myself. Besides, his personality is very strange. Sometimes, he’ll be very dissatisfied with me and treat me coldly, so don’t worry about him falling for your wife, okay?”
