Chapter 563
Jeremy’s sudden appearance made Karen and Yvonne feel a jolt course through them.
They both got choked by the flesh of the fruits and started coughing vigorously till their faces went scarlet.
Madeline lifted her eyes and saw Jeremy’s dark expression. His sharp gaze was looking right at her.
However, the moment their eyes met, his expression changed and became much calmer.
“Linnie.” He placed the daily supplies that he just bought at the supermarket down on the floor. Heartbroken, he took the broom away from her hand. “What are you doing, silly?”
“I’m cleaning up. Mom said that she’ll be staying here with Yvonne. I’ve already cleaned up the guest rooms.” Madeline explained with a smile.
Jeremy frowned, shifting his stony gaze to the two ladies.
“Get lost right this minute!” He chased them out without a single thought.
Karen put on a pitiful look when she saw Jeremy infuriated. “Jeremy, I’m your mom. Your dad went overseas again for the sake of minimizing the loss. How do you expect me to live alone?”
“Alone?” Jeremy was looking scornfully at Yvonne who dared not let out a breath. “Isn’t there another person here with you?”
Karen was speechless and knew where Jeremy was going. She glanced at Yvonne and sighed with a pitiful look. “Yvonne hasn’t graduated, and she has no friends or family in Glendale. Hence, the only choice she has is to tag along with me, but how can two jobless women be able to survive on their own?”
“You guys are incredible in a way,” Jeremy sneered as he sneaked a peek at the floor that was all messy.
“Jeremy, why don’t you let Yvonne and Mom stay here? Since there are rooms available too.” Madeline advised.
Jeremy did not intend to go against Madeline’s wish. He threw the broom in his hand to the two ladies.
“If you guys want to stay here, then you’d better get this place cleaned up. I’ll chase you guys out of here if you guys give any more trouble to Linnie.”
“…”
“…”
Karen and Yvonne dared not argue back as they just stood there, witnessing Jeremy escorting Madeline upstairs.
