Chapter 628

Taking a good look at Jeremy’s gaze, she found it akin to the one from years ago.

It looked like anger when in truth he was scared, afraid, and worried.

Madeline was surprised by her revelation.

“Are you alright, Linnie?” Jeremy asked softly as he helped Madeline up.

“I’m alright.” Madeline straightened her shirt. “I’d like to go back and take care of Grandfather.”

“I’ll bring you there.”

“Okay.” Madeline did not reject him.

On the way back, Madeline’s mind was plagued with Jeremy’s frantic gaze that made him look like he was furious.

The car arrived at the villa, and Jeremy’s phone rang.

He picked it up, and it seemed like he had pressing matters to attend to.

“I’m going out for a bit, Linnie. Just ignore whatever my mom says.” He especially reminded.

Madeline nodded and turned to walk into the house without much of a reply.

Jeremy frowned as he watched Madeline leave, his mind reminding him of her desire to officially divorce him.

It was inevitable.

He had foolishly imagined that he still had a place in her heart when she dressed his wound.

When in truth, her heart did not have a person named Jeremy Whitman anymore.

That was the only reason why she could be so curt and decisive.

He smiled bitterly and turned the car the other way.

Yvonne was happily fantasizing about how she would kill the old master in his sleep tonight so that he would never wake again when Madeline suddenly walked through the doors.

She immediately went to Karen’s side to fan the flames. “Look, Aunty Karen. I just knew that she would be fine with how she had bewitched Jeremy. He’d definitely defend her!”

Karen was staring at her wound in the mirror, worrying if it would scar, when she heard Yvonne. She was quick to become angry.

She shot up and threw the mirror in her hand at Madeline who was currently ignoring her.

Madeline evaded agilely, and the mirror shattered by her feet with a crash.

She lifted her sharp gaze. “You do know that I can report you for malicious wounding, right?”

“Hahaha!” Karen doubled over as if she had heard the best joke in her life. “How are you shameless enough to talk about suing me? Let me tell you, Madeline. If this wound of mine scars, I promise you, I’ll give you the same scar on your face!”

Yvonne felt as if someone had hit her head twice.

Realizing Jeremy had not come in with Madeline, Yvonne immediately helped scold Madeline, “How could you be so sinister, Madeline? First, you poisoned the old master. Now you hit Aunty Karen?

You’re obviously taking revenge! You’re trying to kill them!”

“Don’t think you’ll get away with this, Madeline! I’ll make sure Jeremy sees your true identity. When that happens, you can spend the rest of your days in jail and never come out!” Karen cursed her harshly.

Madeline’s eyes grew cold and her tone frosty. “That’s right! So what if I am taking revenge? I can’t wait for all of you to die! You hurt me first!”

She stepped closer to Karen as she spoke, causing the latter to shiver and stagger backward at Madeline’s overwhelming aura.

Madeline’s eyes were cold as she glared at her. “Oh, how I regret not hitting you harder that day. I should have killed you, then you wouldn’t be bothering me, you eyesore!”

Karen and Yvonne’s eyes widened in shock.

‘What? Why would Madeline confess to hitting Aunty Karen when I was the one who hit this idiotic and annoying woman?’

Karen’s was twitching from frustration. “You… So you’re finally admitting to being the one who hit me, huh, Madeline?!”

She pointed a trembling finger at Madeline before suddenly turning to look at the door. “Jeremy! You heard her, Jeremy! She admitted it!”
