Chapter 216
The person who looked for Tanner must have been Meredith.
Madeline knew it very well, but she did not think Jeremy did.
He had always believed in Meredith blindly.
It was also because he had indulged Meredith again and again that it brought her such deep pain previously.
However, if he really wanted to cover for Meredith, why did he take the extra effort to ask Madeline to pretend to be who she was back then to worm facts out of Tanner?
Madeline thought that Jeremy would leave right away, but she did not expect him to follow her to the door of her apartment.
“Can I go in and sit for a while?” Jeremy parted his lips lightly, requesting.
It was already late at night. Madeline wanted to refuse, but she glanced at his bleeding hand and decided to open the door to let him in. “Come in.”
She did not think she was feeling sorry for him. She just wanted to get some information from him.
Madeline brought out the medical kit. Seeing the man sitting impassively on the sofa, she walked in.
Jeremy lowered his hands and sank weakly into the soft sofa. There was intense melancholy between his eyebrows, and he looked depressed.
Madeline did not say a word. She just quietly took out the alcohol swab and treated the injury on the back of Jeremy’s hand, then gently wrapped it with gauze.
“I never believed in her.”
Jeremy suddenly said such a sentence.
Madeline’s movements stopped for a bit. She then asked with a calm and composed smile, “Mr. Whitman, who are you talking about?” she asked, but she then heard Jeremy chuckle in a low voice.
He seemed to be talking to himself. “I really didn’t expect her to do such a thing. I had trusted her so much all this while.”
