Old Master Whitman nodded, casting a meaningful look at Madeline as if he had seen through something.

In the car, Jeremy spoke first, “Miss Vera, thank you for fulfilling my unreasonable request.”

“Since it’s an unreasonable request, I hope there won’t be a second time,” Madeline said calmly, “Mr. Whitman, you’ve taken up a lot of my time. Could you please send me back immediately? You should also go back and console your fiancé.”

Jeremy looked at Madeline and saw that her expression was cold and impatient. He said, “I’m really sorry for taking up your time with your boyfriend. I’ll treat the two of you to a meal next time.”

“That’s not necessary. I’m afraid my boyfriend will get jealous.” Madeline rejected.

Jeremy did not say anything else and headed back right after sending Madeline to the designated location.

Madeline stood next to the busy streets, looking down at her palms.

It felt like there was still some warmth in her hands.

Grandpa.

He actually still remembered her.
