Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Chapter 319

Chapter 319

Jeremy was dressed in a well-tailored black suit, his tall and stylish figure perfectly outlined.

His countenance was golden while his noble and elegant temperament was revealed in his gestures.

It was this side of Jeremy that Meredith had wanted to seize when she first saw him!

She had seized him with conspiracy and tricks for many years, but she did not expect this perfect man to be holding another woman's hand today.

Meredith angrily looked at Vera who was walking beside Jeremy. What was even more unacceptable was that she had thought that the evening dress Vera was wearing was one that Jeremy ordered for her, but it turned out that he bought it for Vera!

She had been looking forward to it for so long for naught!

In the end, reality hit her with a resounding slap!

Jeremy had always been a shining spot in the crowd. The guests in the garden noticed his appearance, and at the same time, they saw Madeline who was next to him arm in arm.

The woman in their eyes was not that devastatingly beautiful, but their eyes were still drawn to her involuntarily.

The dress was beautiful, but when worn on Madeline's body, it was just a foil.

Her figure was beautiful and graceful with an air of orchids. Her skin was like a porcelain vase that left a mild scent wherever she passed by. It was memorable.

Her smile was so casual, but it also looked really unique.

Some people could not help but whisper, "Isn't that Vera Quinn?"

"The founder and designer queen of Miss L.ady."

"She was a big star at the last business reception for Miss L.ady's second anniversary."

"She really looks like Young Master Whitman's ex-wife. How did Young Master Whitman get together with her?"

"I heard early on that Young Master Whitman frequently went to First Crystal Street to look for her. It seems that their relationship is unusual."

"I also heard that Meredith was kidnapped last month and that the few men had done something to her. Is it because of this that Young Master Whatman no longer wants Meredith and is now with this Vera Quinn..."

"Tsk..."

Meredith was already clenching her fists with anger when she heard all these kinds of speculative words coming from behind her.

She felt as if she was about to explode, but considering the current occasion, she had to endure it.

However, Eloise could not bear it anymore and walked straight over. "Vera Quinn."

Madeline stopped, looked at the angry Eloise, and smiled politely. "Mrs. Montgomery, is something the matter?”

"I'm fine, but you won't be soon enough!" Eloise said, suddenly raising her hand to slap Madeline's face fiercely.

With a slap, Madeline's face was turned to the side. She looked a little lost.

She laughed sarcastically. How could the pain on her face compare to the pain spreading in her heart?

She had no precaution just because she was facing her own biological mother and so, she ended up receiving the slap. When everyone saw this, Meredith smiled secretly.

Jeremy looked at Eloise, displeasure apparent in his sharp gaze. "Have you gone mad? How dare you hit my partner?"

"Your partner?" Eloise chuckled. "Jeremy, I don't want to lose my reputation in front of so many people for Meredith's sake, but I'll definitely deal with this vixen!"

Eloise said as she raised her palm, wanting to hit Madeline again.

Jeremy's gaze sank as he subconsciously stretched out his arm to protect Madeline in his arms. With his other hand, he grabbed Eloise's wrist.

"Do you dare to hit her again?"

He flung Eloise away angrily.

Eloise lost her focus and fell backward. Meredith hurried to support her anxiously.

"Mom, Mom, are you okay?" she said worriedly, tears coming to her eyes as she said, "Mom, forget it. Don't worry about me anymore. I'm the one who is no longer in a relationship with Jeremy, so just let him and Miss Vera be together. It's enough that I get hurt. I don't want you to get hurt too."
