Chapter 84
When he saw Felipe standing with Madeline, a cold chill immediately appeared in Jeremy’s eyes.
He lifted his head to look over and Madeline could feel her heart skip a beat.
Even though he was not the man she cared about, her body was still hinting to her that she still could not get away from his shadow.
“Jeremy?” Felipe walked out of the elevator in surprise. “Are you here to pick Maddie up?”
“It’s none of your business.” Jeremy’s tone was cold. His eyes landed on Meredith’s face. “Why did you hang up on me?”
“So you’re the one who called Maddie just now?” Felipe said with a laugh. “Maddie joked that it was a scam caller and hung up. Did you two fight?”
After he said that, Madeline saw Jeremy’s face darkened.
He stared at her. “What are you waiting for? Let’s go.”
Jeremy said and grabbed Madeline’s hand.
It was already winter so it was very cold. However, Madeline could feel that Jeremy’s hand was burning.
She fantasized about him holding her hand to cross the road considerately so many times before. However, this searing heat was not what she longed for.
“I’ll just go with uncle.” Madeline got out of Jeremy’s grip and walked toward Felipe.
Jeremy felt his hand slipping from hers and then he was stunned.
“Uncle, please, let’s go.”
Felipe frowned slightly. Two seconds later, he nodded and looked at Jeremy. “So, we’ll get going now, Jeremy. Maddie, let’s go.”
“Okay,” Madeline replied and turned around following Felipe.
She was scared that she would hesitate if she delayed this. She was scared that she would follow the other man absent-mindedly.
