Chapter 784
[Felipe, you should know better than I that loving and being loved cannot be equal. Eveline Montgomery loves Jeremy Crawford. I hope you’ll stop obsessing over her. Goodbye, Felipe. From now on, there won’t ever be a lady called Cathy who will pester you unknowingly.]
After seeing the message, a tide of complex emotions set off in Felipe’s eyes.
He had not allowed her to go against his order and break Jeremy’s hypnosis without his authorization.
Moreover, he had not allowed the girl who kept saying that she would stay with him and pester him forever to disappear from his world like this.
…
Whitman Manor.
Half a year had passed and a lot of weeds had grown in the courtyard.
The servants were cleaning up the place as instructed.
“I didn’t expect to be here again.” Old Master Whitman sighed. “I thought I won’t ever be coming back until the day I died.”
“Grandpa, your body is recovering well. You’ll live a long life.” Madeline wished him sincerely.
“I’m already very happy to see you and Jeremy getting together again.” Old Master Whitman smiled at Madeline with relief before looking at Jeremy seriously. “If you dare make Madeline sad again this time, I won’t recognize you as a descendant of the Whitman family.”
Jeremy looked at Madeline upon hearing this. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. From now on, I’ll listen to your granddaughter-in-law and never make her unhappy again.”
Madeline glanced at him indifferently. “I’ll just consider that I’ve heard these words first.”
Old Master Whitman laughed a little before instructing Winston to push him into the house.
Madeline stepped forward to follow after but was held back by Jeremy. “Linnie, am I dreaming?”
“Would you like me to slap you so you can tell whether you’re dreaming or not?”
“Yes,” Jeremy simply answered.
Madeline raised her hand and swung it down unceremoniously. Just as she was about to hit his cheek, she patted it lightly. “How about it? Are you awake? Does it hurt?”
“My face doesn’t hurt, my heart does.” Jeremy held Madeline’s hand. He dared not recall the scenes from back then when he had treated her brutally and hurt her for Meredith.
