Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 89

Chapter 89

“You don’t look too well.”

When Madeline heard Felipe say that, she touched her face awkwardly.

She was unwell. Her body was getting worse and worse so of course, she would not look too healthy.

“Are you okay?” He asked considerately.

“Thank you for your consideration, Mr. Whitman. I’m fine.”

Madeline thanked him quickly before getting up.

She remembered how she got Felipe involved because of Jeremy and she felt very apologetic.

“You can stop calling me Mr. Whitman when there’s no one around.”

Madeline hesitated and then she said, “I’ll get going now, uncle.”

“Actually, I’m only older than Jeremy by three years. I don’t like being called uncle, so you can just call me by my name.”

Madeline was taken aback. Then, she nodded. “Then I’ll get back to work, Mr. Whitman.”

Felipe looked at Madeline and smiled. “Go on.”

…

Madeline focused on her work. She could only forget about the things and people that made her unhappy this way.

Their one-month long project was already halfway done. Madeline was pretty happy with the part that she was responsible for.

According to the client’s orders, after Madeline finished with her design, she used her company email to send it to Elizabeth who was on a business trip. After that, she took her purse before going to the cafeteria.

When she was in the lift, she ran into Felipe coincidentally. When he saw her with her purse, he smiled and invited her. “I’m going for lunch as well. Why don’t you join me?”

There were other employees in the lift. They were all looking at Madeline with weird gazes. This made Madeline unsure of what she should do.
