Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

Chapter 174

Meredith had a shy look on as she waited for Jeremy’s response. Her mood was soaring. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

She never expected that just as everyone was shouting for Jeremy to propose, an unwelcome voice

would be heard.

Meredith’s smile froze on her face as she clenched her teeth in dissatisfaction. She said, “Why is she

here?!”

Jeremy immediately turned around when he heard the voice, and the face he had been dreaming of

every night entered his sight.

Following that, everyone else looked toward the direction where the voice had come from as well. A

graceful and beautiful woman entered their sights, but once they took a clear look at her face, Eloise

and Sean widened their eyes in shock!

“This… Madeline?! How… How is that possible?” Eloise’s face was pale, obviously scared as she

unconsciously took a step backward. If not for Sean supporting her, she might have fainted from shock.

A dead person had appeared in front of them, so it was only natural that she was scared.

Sean was also taken aback, but he was still a man and had never done another against his

conscience. That was why he was not as scared as Eloise.

To him, it was a person in front of them. It was impossible for her to be a ghost.

However, Madeline had clearly died, so how could she be right here?

It was one thing if she was not dead, but was she here to cause a scene again? He would not allow

that woman to bully his precious daughter!

Meredith had thought that she would definitely be the center of attention that day, but with the sudden

appearance of Vera, she suddenly felt like she had been sidelined.

Meredith raised her hand, about to pull at Jeremy’s sleeve, but she saw that Jeremy had already

started walking toward Vera.

“Jeremy…” Meredith called out to him with a wounded look, but he did not stop.

Madeline had a gown on, and her elegant figure was complemented with the refined smile on her face.

Her exceptional looks were also accompanied by a graceful demeanor.

Looking at Vera, thoughts of Madeline filled Jeremy’s head.

They looked exactly alike, which meant that Madeline was just as beautiful last time. It was just that he

had never paid her any attention back then and never really appreciated her beauty…

“Mr. Whitman.” Madeline greeted. “It looks like it was right for me to come here today. I’ve never seen

an actual proposal in all my years alive. It looks like I’ll get to experience one today.”

Looking at her beautiful face, Jeremy said, “Then I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you.”

“Oh?” Madeline raised her eyebrow.

“Miss Quinn, why did you come to my house so suddenly?” Meredith put on a smile as she faked a

curious face.

Madeline smiled back. “I heard that it’s Miss Montgomery’s birthday today, so I came here bearing

gifts.”

Meredith’s expression changed into one of surprise. “How did you know it’s my birthday today? We’re

not that familiar with each other, so how could I receive your gifts?”

In her mind, she could not help but think back to her engagement with Jeremy three years ago.

Madeline had also appeared similarly, claiming to have come bearing gifts. In the end, the engagement

ceremony did not conclude. She certainly did not want her birthday to be ruined in the same way.

Madeline looked at Jeremy and smiled. “I know because someone cares for you a lot.”

Hearing that, Meredith glanced at Jeremy, thinking that he was the one who told her.

Even if she was not happy that Jeremy was close to that woman, those words still made her feel quite

happy.
