Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 314

Chapter 314

‘Meredith, finally you know what it’s like to not be trusted by the man you love.

‘Everything that I’ve done today is nothing compared to the humiliation and set-ups you imposed on me in the first place.

‘Of course, what I want to give back to you is much more than that.’

“I always seem to hurt you lately.” Jeremy’s low, husky voice sounded softly. “But I promise that this situation will never happen again.”

Madeline turned her head to look over and he happened to look up.

Their two pairs of eyes met inadvertently. He had eyes as deep as the sea that looked as if they were rippling with dizzying vortexes. All of Madeline’s attention was drawn to him at once.

Madeline’s heartbeat quickened somehow. She even felt a warmth slowly spreading from her ears to her cheeks.

She looked at the unmatched, handsome face in front of her in a slight daze as her heartbeat accelerated. Soft ripples gradually dispersed from her initially clear and charming eyes, making her look coquettish for a moment.

Seeing Madeline looking at him obsessively with blushing cheeks and droopy eyes, the rhythm of Jeremy’s heart also began to beat irregularly.

The face in front of him was exactly the same as that woman’s in his memory. He felt so moved at the moment.

However, he recalled clearly that these were two different people. He would not be moved. Yet, the change in rhythm made him delusional and dazzled.

He seemed to really be harboring a subtle affection for the person in front of him.

“Why do you keep looking at me like that?” he asked in a low tone.

Madeline was startled. She felt that her breathing and heartbeat were all messed up. She was almost overwhelmed by that once familiar fervor.

Then, she remembered something.

“I had a sip of the red wine that Meredith had prepared for you earlier. I think she might have drugged the wine in order to keep you for the night. I’m feeling dizzy now.”
