Chapter 400
She shook her head and stared at Felipe in confusion, which led him to tell her a shocking excerpt of the past.
She finally understood the heaviness of the secret Felipe held in his heart…
Before she could even digest Felipe’s story, Madeline received a call from Jeremy.
Gentleness returned to his eyes as he watched Madeline leave.
“I am no gentleman, after all. For what gentleman would push the woman he loves to the arms of a nemesis?”
He smiled faintly, a dangerous glint sparkling in his eyes.
Following Jeremy’s request, Madeline arrived at the lobby of Whitman Corporations.
Just as she was about to walk in, Jeremy exited from the glass doors.
The man oozed with nobility with every casual step he took.
Setting his eyes on Madeline, the frost in his gaze immediately thawed into gentle warmth.
“You sounded impatient on the phone. Did you need something?” Madeline asked with a smile.
“Yeah.” Jeremy took Madeline’s hand and walked to the car.
After hopping in, Madeline almost thought that Jeremy was impatient about getting registered.
Still, it was unlikely that they would go to the town office since she had voiced the desire to leave it for later as there were no auspicious dates.
The road they drove on began to look familiar as she pondered.
It was the road to April Hill.
Indeed, half an hour later, the car came to a stop by the seaside of April Hill.
The mid-autumn wind was salty from the sea breeze as it stabbed waves of coldness into one’s bones like pins and needles.
