Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 995

Chapter 995

Madeline was so calm when she said that, but her words felt like heavy icebergs on Jeremy’s heart.

He looked at Madeline’s back and followed her to the door while enduring the pain.

He saw Ryan opening the door for Madeline. Then, she smiled and got in before leaving with Ryan.

Under the night sky, Jeremy’s gaze was as cold as ice water.

‘Linnie, are we not fated to be together?

‘If that’s the case, why did God let us meet again after so many years?

‘Why does he let us love each other and kill each other?

‘Perhaps, the last remaining thing I can do for you now is this.’

He lowered his head to look at the ring on his ring finger as a layer of frost appeared beneath his eyes.

…

In the car.

Madeline looked out of the window without saying anything.

She looked at her ringless finger and touched it lightly.

When the traffic light turned red, Ryan noticed that Madeline was a little down. As such, he asked softly in concern, “Did something happen, Mrs. Whitman?”

“Mr. Jones, if you don’t mind, you can just call me Eveline or Miss Montgomery.”

Ryan pondered for a few seconds before smiling and nodding. “Eveline.”

Madeline nodded and said, “It’s nothing actually. I met Lana again today.”

On the other hand, Mr. Jones was also courteous and warm. “A lot of things have happened to you recently, Miss Montgomery, and we’re absolutely devastated. However, the dead can’t come back to life and we hope that you can stay strong.”

“I will. Thank you for your encouragement, Mr. Jones.”

Mr. Jones smiled. “Here, have some salad. Please eat more, Miss Montgomery.”

Madeline felt her heart getting warmer when she was faced with Mr. and Mrs. Jones’ friendliness and hospitality.

Suddenly, she missed Eloise and Sean. She missed her parents a lot.

However, they could not come back to her anymore nor call out her name softly.

After dinner, Ryan took Madeline for a walk nearby.

In Mr. and Mrs. Jones’ eyes, they were able to sense something going on between the two.
