Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

Chapter 35

“Why did I save a cruel witch like you with my bone marrow? Jeremy fell in love with a woman like you

because he’s blind!”

Madeline slapped Meredith again and again across her face. Everyone in the house came out after

they heard the commotion.

When Rose saw that Meredith was being slapped, she ran over and grabbed Madeline’s hair. She even

kicked her, but Madeline still held on to Meredith tightly.

“Jeremy, it hurts! Jeremy, save me! Madeline’s going to beat me to death!”

Madeline wailed and screamed. Finally, she alerted Jeremy.

“Madeline, are you insane?” Jeremy dragged Madeline who was having an emotional breakdown away.

Then, he gathered Meredith into his arms.

“Boohoo… Jeremy, I’m in so much pain. My face hurts! Maddie is insane!” Meredith complained as she

leaned in Jeremy’s arms.

Madeline rushed over. “Meredith, stop pretending. I should be the one crying! Why did I have to meet a

two-faced b*tch like you?”

“Jeremy, listen to that! That b*tch is yelling and slapping Mer in front of you and she’s still saying that

Mer wronged her. You should’ve divorced this woman a long time ago!” Rose came to the aid of her Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

daughter who was suffering an injustice.

Jeremy’s eyebrows were knitted together. There was a terrifying glint in his icy gaze.

“Madeline!”

He parted his lips coldly and looked at Madeline like he wanted to rip her into shreds.

“You keep on challenging my limit. Do you want to die young?”

“Heh.” Madeline scoffed bitterly. She was indeed going to die young. “Jeremy, just open your eyes and

look closely. Are you holding a human or a beast?”

Slap! Rose swung her hand down on Madeline’s face. “How dare you say that about Mer?”

“She is a beast!” Madeline lifted her unyielding gaze and looked into Jeremy’s eyes. “Do you know

what kind of cruel things your darling did? She kidnapped my grandpa and wants ten million from me!”

“Maddie, what are you talking about? How could I do something as despicable as that?” Meredith said

softly. She looked innocent and aggrieved. “Even though he’s not my biological grandpa, we’re still

sisters. I treat Len as my own grandpa too. Plus, why would I kidnap him?”

“You want to get back at me! You want to force me to a dead end!”

“I didn’t…” Meredith’s eyes were filled with tears. She shook her head. “Jeremy, you have to believe

me. I never did that. If I did, my punishment is that our baby will be stillborn!”

“Mer, you dummy! How can you make that kind of oaths because of that b*tch?” Rose was

heartbroken.

However, Meredith was calm. “I didn’t do it, so I’m not scared.”

“Hehe.” Madeline chuckled. The even more ironic thing was that Jeremy believed her.

He held Meredith even tighter as his icy gaze penetrated through Madeline.

“You said your grandpa’s been kidnapped?”

“Yes!” Madeline had a confident look on her face. “She admitted that to me just now!”

Jeremy looked at her and did not say anything. However, he took out his phone and called the hospital

Len was in. He asked whether someone named Len was missing.

He was on speaker, and immediately, Madeline heard the nurse’s sweet voice saying, “No, he’s

sleeping in his bed.”

Every word was so clear and concise. Madeline felt as if all of her blood had been turned into ice.

She saw a layer of frost in Jeremy’s eyes. He did not hang up the phone immediately. Instead, he

asked, “How’s that old man? Is he diagnosed with lung cancer?”
