Chapter 257

His warm breath dispersed on Madeline’s cheek. She was stunned, and everything Jeremy did to her back then appeared in her head.

He was cold-blooded and heartless, so he had done every cruel thing in the world to her.

Madeline could not think of anything that he had not done to her.

While she was spacing out, she noticed Jeremy’s face inching closer to her.

Madeline’s heart started racing irregularly. She thought Jeremy was about to kiss her, so she was about to run away when he pulled her into his arms.

He lowered his head and buried his face between her neck and shoulder. He seemed to be exhausted. With this hug, he was releasing all of his unknown pressure and stress. He was indulging himself during this hug with her.

Madeline was taken aback while stuck in Jeremy’s embrace.

She was not wearing very thick clothes, so she could feel Jeremy’s warmth through the material of their clothes since they were in such close proximity. His warmth seeped into her skin, slowly spreading.
