Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1670

Chapter 1670

Over at the other end, Shirley, against the will of her weak body, slipped away from Carter’s tight embrace.

The phone in her coat started vibrating as she got up.

Sitting on the bed, she took a deep breath before picking up her coat.

The phone was still vibrating. Seeing the remark on the screen made her frown.

As she contemplated whether to answer Jeremy’s call, an icy palm suddenly grasped her wrist, followed by an extremely cold voice that ambushed her from behind.

“You really did fall in love with Jeremy. You’d even want to answer his call at this time.”

Carter’s chilly voice, suffused with dissatisfaction, pierced into Shirley’s ears.

Before she had time to explain, Carter snatched her phone away and threw it forcefully at the corner of the wall.

The phone immediately stopped vibrating; the screen shattered into pieces.

In low spirits, Shirley stared at the shattered phone, sitting at the same spot in a daze. A sense of endless loneliness invaded every cell in her body, causing her to feel cold all over.

Carter got up calmly. In a carefree demeanor, he wore back his shirt and other clothing that he had removed, one by one.

As if nothing had happened a moment ago, he remained as the noble and elegant prince in everyone’s eyes.

With his unique and deep eyes, he looked askance at Shirley, towering over her.

“Enough with this pitiful expression. Didn’t you use to seduce me like this? Heh.” In the end, he let out a cold chuckle, brimming with endless derision and disdain.

After saying that, Carter turned around casually.

Shirley put on her coat as she walked to the corner of the wall, picking up the shattered phone.

As she had expected, the phone was shattered to the point where there was no way to turn it on, its cracked screen resembling a spider web.

However, her phone still contained a lot of important information, so she had no choice but to keep it for now.

When she saw the man in front of her, Madeline pressed her lips together into a small smile. “Jeremy…”

Her tone sounded extraordinarily weak, as if all of the energy in her body had been sucked dry.

“Linnie, I’m here. How do you feel now? Are you still feeling unwell?” Jeremy helped Madeline sit upright, letting her lean on his chest.

Madeline shook her head. “I’m fine now. I just feel exhausted all over.”

Jeremy tightened his embrace, empathizing. “Linnie, let’s head back to Glendale. Adam will think of a way to help you.”

“Can we still leave today?” Madeline looked out the window. Initially, they were going to take the flight this afternoon, but it was already night now.

“I’ve already booked plane tickets for tomorrow afternoon. We’ll definitely go home tomorrow, Linnie.” Jeremy promised as he held her hand.

Madeline looked into Jeremy’s gaze, filled with concern and empathy, and lifted her hand to touch his cheeks. “Okay.”

However, the doorbell rang at this moment, which was followed by the sounds of hurried knocks on the door.
