Chapter 532
It was a shame they could only miss it.
“Daddy, why didn’t Mommy come to see me today? She said she would play with me this weekend.” Jackson’s voice pulled Madeline’s thoughts back.
She raised her head and saw the little guy pulling at Jeremy’s trouser legs, his head facing up as he asked expectantly.
Jeremy stretched out his hand and stroked his small head with a gentle smile. “Jack, starting from next Monday, Daddy is going on a business trip and will not be able to come back for a long time. You have to listen to your mother, okay?”
“How long is a long time?” the little guy asked innocently.
Jeremy smiled reluctantly. “You’ll understand when you grow up.”
Jackson fluttered his big, bright, and smart eyes. “Then, I must grow up quickly so that I can see Daddy again soon.”
“My baby, you’re so good.” Jeremy praised. He suddenly knelt down and hugged Jackson into his arms.
“Daddy, what’s the matter with you?” Jackson blinked ignorantly.
Jeremy stroked the little guy lightly as he choked and whispered, “Daddy wants to say sorry to Jack.”
“Sorry?”
“Jack, I’m sorry. I didn’t take good care of you and made you suffer so much in the past few years. I’m really sorry.”
Jeremy apologized, his every word sincere from the heart.
“Jack, promise me you’ll be a strong and sensible man. Take my place and protect your mother and make her happy.”
“Why doesn’t Daddy protect Mommy and make her happy?”
Jeremy released his arms and stared at the big eyes that looked like Madeline’s.
Walking through the corridor, Madeline saw Karen and Jeremy’s father, Winston, waiting outside the emergency room with anxious and worried faces. Yvonne was also there.
Seeing Jeremy arrive, Karen immediately greeted him.
As soon as she saw Madeline walking behind him, Karen then suddenly pointed at Madeline while yelling, “Madeline, how dare you come here?! If anything happens to the old master, you’ll be a murderer!”
Mr. Whitman, Winston, also faced Madeline with an ugly expression. “Madeline, even if Jeremy has let you down before and even if it was the old man who forced Jeremy to marry you and created this mistake of a marriage, you still shouldn’t have been so hateful to kill the old man!”
At this time, Yvonne also came over and accused her. “Vera, you’re too cruel for wanting to kill the old man. It seems that you and Felipe have colluded on this long ago! You’re too inhuman!”
When Yvonne’s voice fell, Jeremy’s face was already cold. “Shut your mouth! Who are you calling inhuman, huh? Say it again.”
“…” Yvonne’s face immediately paled. Chills were running down her spine out of fright.
Karen rushed forward fiercely while pointing at Madeline and cursing, “Jeremy, your grandfather is lying in the emergency room now and we don’t even know whether he’s alive or dead. It’s all because of this woman! She killed him! Why are you still helping her? She’s already having an affair with Felipe! Maybe Jackson is not your son at all but a wild thing that she and Felipe gave birth to!”
