Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1477

Chapter 1477

Madeline was shocked when she saw Jeremy’s appearance. She did not know whether this was fate or just a coincidence.

Jeremy opened the door of the car, and after looking at Madeline, he spotted Carter who was standing next to her.

The man’s gaze was deep. After he examined Carter, he asked, “Quinny, who is this?”

“Hello, Mr. Whitman. I’m Quinny’s fiancé,” Carter introduced himself. Suddenly, he reached out his hand to hold Madeline’s left hand.

However, Madeline wanted to dodge reflexively the moment he touched her. Even so, Carter held her hand in a firm grip.

Jeremy could see Madeline furrowing her eyebrows lightly. There was a contradicting feeling in his heart that he could not put a finger on. However, in the end, he did not show it.

“I specially drove my girlfriend here. From now on, my girlfriend will be working here, so please take good care of her, Mr. Whitman.” Carter smiled softly.

This was the first time Madeline saw a smile on his face.

Jeremy did not say anything and only nodded slightly.

Madeline used this opportunity to remove her hand from Carter’s grip. She forced a calm tone to send Carter away. “I’m here now. You should go back.”

She felt anxious for some reason, especially when she did not know what Carter was trying to do. Plus, he had his suspicious bag.

However, when Madeline was about to turn around, Carter stopped her. “You forgot your bag.”

Madeline stopped in her tracks. She did not expect that the bag was for her.

She could not display her surprise. As such, she quickly walked to Carter and took the bag. “I’ll go in now. Bye.”

After Madeline said that, she took the bag and turned around quickly. She did not look at Carter anymore.

Jeremy looked at Madeline’s back and took a look at Carter. He curled the corners of his lips in a subtle and faint smile before walking through the door.

Carter’s black eyes were examining Jeremy with a hidden meaning. He did not leave even after a very long time.

Jeremy placed the bag gently on the sofa. Then, he turned around to look into Madeline’s clear wide eyes.

When their eyes met, Jeremy could feel his heartbeat getting erratic again. He even felt dryness in his throat.

“Cough.” He coughed softly. “If there’s anything, just tell me. The main reason you’re here is to take care of my mother-in-law.”

“Thank you, Mr. Whitman. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Mrs. Montgomery,” Madeline promised. Of course, she was being sincere when she said this.

Jeremy looked into Madeline’s eyes seriously. Then, he parted his lips like he wanted to say something but stopped himself.

Madeline could see Jeremy’s hesitation so she said, “Mr. Whitman, do you have anything to tell me?”

Jeremy pressed his lips together. “Is the man just now really your fiancé?”

“…”

“Please don’t take offense. I just think that you don’t look like a couple from the way you interact and look at each other.” Jeremy was direct and continued, “Plus, I think your fiancé…”
