Chapter 297

A smile bloomed on Madeline’s face as she looked at Jeremy, her words infuriating Meredith to the point that veins had begun to pop on her forehead.

“Don’t you dare think of coming between me and Jeremy, Vera Quinn! I’m the only woman Jeremy loves, so why would he get married to you?”

With that, Meredith got off the bed while feeling distressed and ran toward Jeremy, tears pooling in her eyes in a show of how delicate she was.

“She’s lying, right, Jeremy? Tell me she’s lying.”

“She’s not.” Jeremy did not hesitate to answer and it left Meredith gaping with wide eyes.
