Chapter 85
When Meredith saw Jeremy and Madeline walking in together, she was so mad her hands were
already in fists. There was something sinister in her eyes but she could not do anything about it.
However, when she saw Felipe, she was utterly shocked!
That man was Jeremy’s uncle!
She was feeling extremely uneasy. She did not expect that Jeremy’s uncle was the person who stood
up for Madeline that day.
Plus, this man even gave her a lawyer’s letter to sue her!
She looked at Felipe nervously. She stood at one side and pretended nothing happened.
Felipe saw Meredith as well. He averted his eyes calmly.
Madeline was dragged by Jeremy to sit next to him. On the other hand, Meredith sat on Jeremy’s other
side. The moment she sat down, she poured wine and took food for Jeremy like a perfect little wife.
Madeline felt that she was being an eyesore. There were all kinds of food on the table but she did not This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
have much of an appetite. Plus, because of her health, she could only eat bland things.
“This is my mother’s best dish. You’ve never tried this before. Here, try it.” Jeremy suddenly put some
curry into her bowl.
Madeline knew he was just putting up an act when he made such a considerate gesture. She wanted to
cooperate but her body would not allow her to eat such spicy food. Plus, she was not a fan of curry.
“Thank you, darling, but I don’t like this.”
Jeremy’s face fell when Madeline rejected it.
“Maddie, Mrs. Whitman made this dish. Why don’t you support her a little? Plus, you love curry, so why
are you lying?” Meredith said innocently.
Madeline wanted to laugh. When did she start liking curry?
On the other side, Mrs. Whitman’s face turned extremely dark. “Do whatever you want. Do you think I
want you eating my food?”
“Madeline.” Jeremy looked at her in annoyance. “Are you eating or not?”
He was forcing her and Meredith was smirking at one side secretly.
Madeline held her spoon. She did not know how she should do this.
She really did not like this, plus she also could not eat this.
“Maddie is tired from work and she didn’t eat much during lunch so she can’t eat such spicy food. It
would be better for her if she eats something bland.” Felipe smooth things over just in time. Then, he
took some vegetables or Madeline. “You should eat this.”
Madeline was taken aback, then she thanked him. “Thank you, uncle.”
Jeremy was already enraged when Felipe chose to sit next to Madeline.
Now, when he saw Felipe taking food for Madeline, a dark wave started crashing over in his eyes.
“Do you think it’s appropriate to take food on behalf of my wife, uncle?” Jeremy asked in dissatisfaction.
Then, he started at Madeline eerily. “You should know what you should eat.”
Madeline felt her head hurting all of a sudden. When did she start to lose the freedom to choose what
she wanted to eat?
In order to not involve Felipe in this, she put the curry in her mouth.
The spiciness of the curry traveled from her mouth to her stomach. The burning sensation made
Madeline extremely uncomfortable.
Madeline finished her food with no choice. Then she felt her stomach gurgling as it burnt
uncomfortably.
Meredith even deliberately brought her more curry. “Maddie, you have to drink the curry while it’s hot.
Piping hot curry is the essence of this dish. You can’t let Mrs. Whitman’s effort go to waste.”
Madeline was feeling unwell. There was a sheen of cold sweat on her forehead as well. At this
moment, Jeremy urged, “Why are you not eating?”
“I don’t think Maddie can handle the spice.” Felipe could see that something was wrong with Madeline.
However, Jeremy laughed. He looked at Madeline. “You can’t handle the spice? Didn’t you have the
time of your life eating tacos with hot sauce with Daniel last time?”
Madeline knew what happened back then. She felt sad when she recalled what happened.
She picked up the bowl with no choice. However, before she could drink much, she felt an extreme
reaction in her stomach. Then, she felt her throat getting hot before she vomited blood along with the
curry.
