Chapter 776
He did not, however, expect Jeremy’s bride to be Madeline and that Madeline would go along with the flow to accept the lease to the manor.
Seeing Madeline’s firm and sharp eyes, Felipe did not want to invite a snub anymore.
He did not understand Jeremy’s reaction. Jeremy was obviously hypnotized and could not possibly have any feelings for Madeline, but Jeremy’s eyes when he looked at Madeline were very gentle—even affectionate.
The more he thought about it, the more irritated he got.
That woman Meredith had promised him decisively yesterday that this matter was successfully dealt with, but now, it was more like he had been dealt with by Madeline.
Felipe called Meredith immediately after leaving the banquet hall, but no one answered.
Madeline and Jeremy proceeded with the wedding ceremony in the presence of their guests.
They exchanged their rings, said ‘I do’ to each other, and at the end, he bowed his head before kissing her lips gently.
After the ceremony, Madeline put on her evening gown and returned to the dressing room. As soon as she entered the dressing room, she heard rustling sounds from the fitting room.
Madeline walked over and opened the curtain. Meredith was awake and struggling to break free of the rope that bound her hands and the towel in her mouth.
Taking in Meredith’s discomforted state, Madeline felt very happy. “What? Does it hurt? Is it uncomfortable? Think about what you did to me. I’m just fighting tooth for tooth.”
Madeline walked over and took away the towel tucked in Meredith’s mouth. “Eveline, let me go!”
“You want me to let go of you? Sure. Then, beg me.”
“You…”
“What? Do you think you’re qualified to negotiate terms with me now?”
