Chapter 432
She paused for a few seconds before picking it up.
A man’s deep and hoarse voice sounded softly, “Have you returned to the company?”
“No, I returned to my store,” Madeline said calmly, “Aren’t you busy? Why do you have the time to call me?”
“I suddenly missed you,” he said softly. After saying this, he added, “For real.”
These two words made Madeline’s heartbeat skip all of a sudden. Her gaze shifted to the computer screen, her heart feeling disturbed.
“Vera, I might not be able to go back tonight. Will you miss me like how I miss you?”
Madeline was silent for a while as she listened to his words.
Not knowing how much time had passed, she then replied softly, “Of course, of course I’ll miss you.”
After obtaining her answer, Jeremy chuckled softly and said with a sweet tone, “Don’t worry, everything will be resolved soon. We’ll never be separated again after this.”
Madeline listened to Jeremy’s words blankly. By the time she had come back to her senses, it was unknown to her when the call ended.
She vaguely felt that something was off, and after switching off the computer, she immediately went to the detention center.
Meredith was very happy to know that someone had come to visit her, but when she saw that it was Madeline who was sitting in the interview room, her face turned gloomy.
Meredith had dark circles under her eyes. She glared at the noble and elegant-looking Madeline with hatred as she dragged her handcuffs and shackles.
She saw on the news a few days ago that the Montgomery family already knew that Madeline was their biological daughter and had announced it publicly. Yet, they did not seem to know that Madeline was now Vera Quinn.
Meredith glared at Madeline with ferocious eyes, suddenly sneering, “Want to know the whereabouts of the mix breed you gave birth to back then?”
“I indeed want to know, but I don’t think you’d tell me.”
Madeline was very clear in her heart. “Meredith, let me ask you, why did you destroy my grave and even stole my ashes?”
“Ashes?” Meredith laughed loudly the moment she heard it.
“Madeline, I really wish you were just a handful of ashes! You damn b*tch! If I knew you weren’t dead, I wouldn’t have wasted time in that kind of unlucky place!”
