Chapter 20

When Madeline remembered her battered self. she did not know what to do.

Every woman would want to present their best selves to the man they loved. However. whenever she was with him, she would be in her worst and most torn-up state. At this moment, she was even covered in the scars he had given her.

“Who allowed you to come in?” Jeremy stopped outside the door.

Madeline looked at him. “This is my home.”

“Your home?” The man chuckled lowly. “Do you think you have the right to call this your home?”

The light in Madeline’s eyes faded. Jeremy's words stabbed her heart like glass shards.

“If Mer weren't so kind, you would still be rotting in prison.” Jeremy’s words were laced with love for Meredith.

Madeline scoffed. “Yeah, if it weren't not for . 1 wouldn’t have ended up in such a place.”

It was obvious that Jeremy was enraged by what she had said. “You're still trying to talk back at a time like this?”

“Jeremy. I did not! I’m telling the truth!” Madeline clenched her fists and emphasized her words with her head high.

Nonetheless. the man’s handsome face was covered by a layer of frost. He lifted his icy glare and peered at Madeline. “No, huh? Alright, get over there and kneel. I'll believe you if you kneel until the rain stops.”

Madeline was stunned. and she subconsciously touched her stomach.

“Don't you want me to believe you? Why are you still standing here?” Jeremy said in a cold voice.
