He proposed divorce on the day I found out about my pregnancy. Only then did I realize that the dream marriage I hoped for years was merely a scam from the beginning.<br /> &quot;Do we have to get divorced? What if we are having a baby?&quot;<br /> The rhythmic sound of flowing water resonated in the bathroom. Jeremy Whitman was taking a shower.<br /> Madeline Crawford, wrapped in a blanket, got up from the bed. Her cheeks flushed at the thought of the intimacy of the previous night.<br /> Despite being married, each intimate moment still evoked bashfulness within her.<br /> The water sound soon stopped. Clad in nothing but a bath towel, Jeremy emerged from the bathroom.<br /> Handing him a set of clothes, Madeline said, &quot;Breakfast is ready. I&#039;ll wait for you downstairs.&quot;<br /> &quot;Okay,&quot; replied Jeremy.<br /> Walking downstairs, Madeline meticulously took out a cake from the refrigerator, positioning it at the center of the dining table.<br /> She clutched a pregnancy test report in her palm, and her heart thumped with a mix of tension and anticipation.<br /> Today marked their second wedding anniversary, and Madeline had resolved to share the news of her pregnancy with Jeremy.<br /> Jeremy, now attired in a bespoke black suit, radiated an air of sophistication and charm and descended the stairs.<br /> After savoring breakfast, Madeline gripped the report firmly, took a deep breath, and said, &quot;Jeremy, there&#039;s something important I need to share with you.&quot;<br /> &quot;Actually, I also wanna have a word with you.&quot;<br /> &quot;Alright, you go first,&quot; said Madeline.<br /> Rising from his seat, Jeremy retrieved a document from a drawer, extending it toward Madeline with composure.<br /> &quot;This is the divorce agreement. Take a moment to peruse it when you are available.&quot;<br /> Caught off guard, Madeline fought desperately to regain control, ensuring she didn&#039;t fall.<br /> She took a sharp breath. The air rushing into her lungs felt like knives cutting through her.<br /> Divorce agreement?<br /> Her mind went blank for a moment. After a while, Madeline managed to find her voice, and she asked him in a bewildered tone, &quot;Are you asking for a divorce?&quot;<br /> &quot;Yeah.&quot;<br /> His voice was incredibly soft.<br /> Clutching the report, Madeline was about to ask if there was room for negotiation.<br /> If she told him she was pregnant, would he reconsider?<br /> Before she could voice her thoughts, Jeremy spoke, &quot;Joanna is back. I want to end our marriage earlier. We originally agreed on a three-year duration, but let&#039;s end it now. I know it&#039;s abrupt for you. Check the agreement. If you have any requests, I&#039;ll fulfill them as long as they&#039;re reasonable enough.&quot;<br /> With a blank mind, Madeline responded, &quot;Okay, I&#039;ll read it later.&quot;<br /> She slid her hand behind her back, tightly clenching the report as sweat formed on her palms.<br /> She realized there was no need to share the news with him anymore.<br /> &quot;There&#039;s also a favor I&#039;d like to ask from you,&quot; Jeremy said.<br /> Madeline tightened her grip on her hands, making a conscious effort to raise her head and smile at him. &quot;Sure, go ahead. I&#039;ll help in any way I can.&quot;<br /> &quot;I&#039;m afraid you have to bring up the divorce to my grandfather. If I bring it up, he won&#039;t agree.&quot;<br /> &quot;Okay, I understand.&quot;<br /> Being an orphan, Madeline was never considered a suitable match for Jeremy.<br /> Their marriage had been decided by Jeremy&#039;s grandfather, Charles Whitman after she had saved him from an accident.<br /> Before they got married, Jeremy had made it clear. &quot;I can marry you, but my heart belongs to someone else. Our marriage is restricted to three years. After that, it&#039;s your responsibility to propose the divorce to my grandfather, and we&#039;ll part ways.&quot;<br /> She suppressed the bitterness, concealing any traces of affection in her heart.<br /> With a light tone, she responded, &quot;I know. I also have someone in my heart. When the contract expires, I&#039;ll honor the promise and leave you.&quot;<br /> After getting married, Jeremy made every effort to be a perfect husband.<br /> He respected her, indulged her, protected her, and treated her with the utmost care.<br /> To their friends, she was the apple of Jeremy&#039;s eye. Jeremy would never do anything to upset her or allow anyone to upset her. Everyone admired her luck to have such an amazing husband.<br /> Yet, only Madeline knew their marriage was devoid of love; it was simply a contractual arrangement.<br /> All the care Jeremy gave her had nothing to do with love; it was merely a responsibility. The only part he was obsessed with was her flesh, which he loved to hell.<br /> They had agreed to keep their marriage for only three years in the first place, and now the woman who held a special place in his heart had returned. It was time for Madeline to quit.<br /> Bending down, Madeline picked up the divorce agreement from the table.<br /> She had lost her appetite. As she was about to return to the bedroom, Jeremy, looking somewhat troubled, suddenly adjusted his tie, calling out to her.<br /> &quot;When you bring it up to my grandfather, he will surely ask for the reason. Didn&#039;t you mention having someone you like for many years? Now that I&#039;m setting you free, you can find him and pursue your happiness. Even if Grandpa disagrees, he won&#039;t be able to reject it outright.&quot;<br /> Madeline nodded. &quot;I see. I&#039;ll tell him like that.&quot;<br /> After saying this, she couldn&#039;t wait to leave. If she stayed any longer, she feared she might regret it and tell Jeremy that she didn&#039;t want a divorce.<br /> Jeremy suddenly reached out, and Madeline, fearing he might discover what she held in her hand, instinctively pulled away.<br /> Jeremy became even more concerned, firmly holding her hand. &quot;You look pale. Are you not feeling well?&quot;<br /> &quot;No.&quot; Madeline quickly freed her hand.<br /> &quot;We&#039;ve been living together for two years; do you think I can&#039;t tell when you&#039;re lying?&quot; Jeremy&#039;s eyes grew deep.<br /> Having no intention to keep the stalemate, Madeline replied, &quot;Nothing serious, just that time of the month.&quot;<br /> &quot;Have some rest, then.&quot;<br /> After saying that, Jeremy suddenly caught sight of her tightly clenched right hand. He asked in a hushed tone, &quot;What are you holding? You&#039;re gripping it so tightly.&quot;<br /> Madeline promptly tossed the report into the trash bin, managing a forced smile. &quot;Just trash. I&#039;ve been holding onto it and forgot to throw it away.&quot;<br /> He wouldn&#039;t understand the pain that weighed on her heart.<br /> Seeing her weak and unsteady figure, Jeremy lifted her into his arms without a second thought.<br /> Madeline was taken aback and quickly protested. &quot;Let me go; I can make it back on my own.&quot;<br /> &quot;You&#039;re so weak. Don&#039;t push yourself too hard.&quot;<br /> Jeremy&#039;s voice, gentle and seductive, resonated in her ears.<br /> It was the same voice she had listened to and enjoyed for two years, but now that voice was telling her he was abruptly leaving her.<br /> Madeline blinked, unable to hold back the tears.<br /> Jeremy teased her. &quot;Crying because of your period. Seriously? There, there. I&#039;ll get a doctor to check on you later.&quot;<br /> &quot;I&#039;m not crying,&quot; Madeline stubbornly retorted.<br /> Jeremy had no idea why she was crying.<br /> &quot;Alright, you aren&#039;t.&quot; Jeremy compromised.<br /> &quot;Can you tell me who he is?&quot; He suddenly asked.<br /> Madeline was puzzled. &quot;Who?&quot;<br /> &quot;The man you say you&#039;ve loved for years. I&#039;m curious who is so lucky,&quot; Jeremy replied.<br /> Madeline felt a subtle ache in her chest.<br /> She clenched her hands and calmly said, &quot;It&#039;s better left unsaid. He&#039;s already found someone he loves, and he&#039;s about to remarry soon.&quot;<br /> &quot;Remarry? He&#039;s been married before?&quot;<br /> Jeremy&#039;s surprise was evident.<br /> They had been together for two years, yet he lost to a divorced man? He was pretty surprised.<br /> Madeline gave a gentle nod. &quot;Uh-huh. He succumbed to his family&#039;s pressure and married someone he didn&#039;t love before. Now that the girl he loves is back, they&#039;re about to embark on a new life.&quot;<br /> After hearing this, Jeremy felt a surge of indignation.<br /> &quot;He&#039;s quite despicable, hurting two girls at the same time. You deserve someone better. If you meet someone more suitable, just forget this guy.&quot;<br /> Madeline agreed with a nod. &quot;I feel the same way.&quot;<br /> &quot;Jeremy, I&#039;ve loved you for ten years, do you know? The person I love is no one but you, and it has always been you,&quot; Madeline clenched her hands tighter, silently repeating it in her heart over and over.<br /> Jeremy&#039;s brows tightly furrowed.<br /> He looked at Madeline as if he was contemplating something.<br /> &quot;Madeline,&quot; he called her all of a sudden.<br /> &quot;Yeah?&quot;<br /> &quot;Never mind.&quot;<br /> Jeremy shook his head.<br /> He was annoyed by his own thoughts.<br /> For a fleeting moment, he inexplicably felt a connection when Madeline talked about that person as if it resembled him.<br /> However, he instantly dismissed the notion.<br /> He recalled Madeline mentioned that she had been in love with that man for eight years when they got married.<br /> Yet, at that time, they had only known each other for four years.<br /> Thus, he ruled himself out.<br /> After Jeremy departed, Madeline hastily retrieved the report from the trash bin.<br /> She smoothed it on the table, carefully putting it away.<br /> The discomfort in her body intensified; every breath seemed to be painful. She lay on the bed, slipping into a deep slumber until a phone call woke her up.<br /> &quot;Hello?&quot; Still half-asleep, Madeline&#039;s voice sounded nasal, soft, and unintentionally endearing.<br /> &quot;Still sleeping?&quot; Jeremy&#039;s voice came through, as gentle as ever.<br /> &quot;Yeah, just woke up.&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s almost noon; remember to have lunch. By the way, my assistant is on his way to deliver you the gift.&quot;<br /> &quot;What gift?&quot; After a nap, Madeline deliberately erased many things from her memories.<br /> &quot;Gift for our second anniversary. Before our divorce is finalized, I&#039;ll still remember my responsibilities and play the role of a husband. I won&#039;t have you be jealous of any other women.&quot;<br /> Look, what a satisfying husband this man is.<br /> He was always so tender and considerate, seemingly impeccable.<br /> The only flaw she could pick about him was that he didn&#039;t love her.<br /> Jeremy&#039;s voice pulled her distracting mind back. &quot;I wanna say sorry. There was a bit of an accident, so I&#039;ve replaced the gift with another one.&quot;<br /> &quot;No worries.&quot; Madeline nodded, feeling a mix of emotions she couldn&#039;t quite express.<br /> They were on the brink of divorce. This anniversary gift seemed somewhat ironic.<br /> Hanging up the phone, Madeline had just gotten up and changed when Patrick Wardell arrived.<br /> He respectfully presented the gift to Madeline. &quot;Madam, Mr. Whitman sent me to deliver this to you.&quot;<br /> &quot;Thank you.&quot;<br /> The box was exquisitely wrapped. It must be from a high-end brand.<br /> Madeline knew it was no longer the gift she had initially anticipated, yet she still opened it.<br /> When she laid eyes on the ruby necklace and earrings, she smiled.<br /> Perhaps Jeremy was attempting to make amends.<br /> Unable to present her desired gift, he had invested in a valuable set of jewelry.<br /> Last month, they attended a jewelry auction together, and she took a liking for a pair of emerald earrings at first sight.<br /> Jeremy noticed that and said to her, &quot;If you like them, I&#039;ll bid for them.&quot;<br /> &quot;No, they&#039;re too precious.&quot;<br /> After all, they were in a contractual marriage, and she felt uneasy about Jeremy spending so much on her.<br /> &quot;Our second anniversary is approaching. Consider this my gift to you. If you don&#039;t feel at ease to accept it, just give me something in return.&quot;<br /> Thus, she had expectations.<br /> Unexpectedly, he asked for a divorce, and even the pre-prepared gift had fallen through.<br /> It seemed like fate agreed that they weren&#039;t meant to be together and that it was time to part ways.<br /> As agreed, she had indeed put effort into preparing a gift for him. Sadly, he didn&#039;t want it.<br /> Madeline stopped Patrick. &quot;I made this cake myself. Please bring it to him.&quot;<br /> Patrick hesitated for a moment, recalling Jeremy&#039;s words. &quot;I don&#039;t like sweet things.&quot;<br /> Looking at Madeline, Patrick couldn&#039;t bear to lie.<br /> After much hesitation, he replied, &quot;Mr. Whitman said he doesn&#039;t like sweet things. He knows you enjoy them and suggests you have more.&quot;<br /> Madeline clenched her fists, feeling almost unable to stand firm.<br /> After Patrick left, she carried the cake back to the bedroom.<br /> Her weak body leaned against the door, sliding down bit by bit. Tears streamed down her face, hitting the floor.<br /> Her heart hurt so much.<br /> She always knew that Jeremy didn&#039;t like cream or overly sweet cakes.<br /> Thus, she made this low-fat, low-sugar cake containing only a hint of the fragrance of milk.<br /> Without any cream but only the cake base, it was truly not sweet at all.<br /> But he didn&#039;t even want to give it a try.<br /> Madeline&#039;s tears dropped onto the cake, blurring the simple doodle of the parents and a kid on top. She took a bite of the cake.<br /> The cake she had put so much effort into making tasted bitter.<br /> Suddenly, her phone rang.<br /> It was Jeremy.<br /> Madeline answered the phone, &quot;Hello.&quot;<br /> &quot;Did you receive the gift? Do you like it?&quot;<br /> &quot;Yeah, I love it. Thank you.&quot;<br /> &quot;You look good in red; it brings out your complexion.&quot; After a pause, Jeremy added, &quot;I won&#039;t come home tonight.&quot;<br /> Suddenly, Joanna Bartley&#039;s soft voice sounded on the other side. &quot;Jeremy, did you tell her? Come on, the candlelight dinner is...&quot;<br /> &quot;Take care of yourself.&quot; Jeremy uttered one last sentence and hastily hung up.<br /> &quot;I will.&quot;<br /> Although he hung up very hastily, Madeline still heard Joanna&#039;s voice, clear as day.<br /> She heard the distinct words &quot;candlelight dinner.&quot;<br /> On their anniversary, her husband was having a candlelight dinner with another woman. It felt bitterly ironic.<br /> Joanna had indeed come back!<br /> Although Madeline didn&#039;t want to believe it, this was the harsh reality. <br /> The fact instantly shattered her, leaving her defeated.<br /> Not just now, she completely lost to Joanna two years ago.<br /> How could she have expected Jeremy to choose her?<br /> Just because she was pregnant?<br /> At this moment, Madeline was grateful that she hadn&#039;t told him the truth. Otherwise, it would have been a self-inflicted humiliation.<br /> After shedding tears and releasing pent-up emotions, Madeline regained much of her composure.<br /> Given that he had made up his mind, she chose to accept it with equanimity.<br /> Following a shower, Madeline lay down on the bed, tossing and turning.<br /> Just as she was about to drift into sleep, she received a call from Jeremy&#039;s friend, Wayne Lawrence. &quot;Jeremy is drunk and is causing a scene. Come and take him home.&quot;<br /> Madeline was perplexed. Wasn&#039;t he supposed to be spending the night with Joanna?<br /> Suppressing her discomfort, Madeline rose from the bed, changed into fresh clothes, and had the driver take her to the club that Jeremy frequented.<br /> She arrived at the club, only to find the private room surprisingly quiet.<br /> Jeremy was deeply intoxicated. With a neat suit and appearance as handsome as ever, he sprawled on the sofa, legs crossed.<br /> Madeline had to admit that Jeremy was indeed one of the most delicate works of the Creator. Even when he was thoroughly intoxicated, he maintained a decent manner.<br /> As Madeline approached him, a wave of nausea hit her, and she couldn&#039;t help but feel the urge to vomit.<br /> Perhaps it was a symptom of the first trimester.<br /> Having finally composed herself, she turned to Wayne and asked, &quot;How did he get so drunk? Wasn&#039;t he with Joanna?&quot;<br /> &quot;Oh, you know that?&quot; Wayne looked at her, his sarcasm undisguised. &quot;Your husband is spending the night with another woman, and you have no objection?&quot;<br /> Madeline tightly clenched her fists, took a deep breath, and then slowly released them.<br /> She responded in a calm tone, &quot;We&#039;ve already agreed on a divorce. We just haven&#039;t got the legal papers, but he&#039;s already free. I don&#039;t have the right to restrain him anymore.&quot;<br /> Wayne looked at her with a sneer. &quot;You&#039;re kinda open-minded.&quot;<br /> After a pause, he continued to say, &quot;Madeline, do you have any conscience? How has Jeremy treated you all these years? He gave you meticulous care and did everything a husband is supposed to do. He asked for a divorce, but why didn&#039;t you even try to stop him?&quot;<br /> Madeline, somewhat bewildered, looked at him. &quot;I remember you strongly opposed him to marry me back then. Now that we&#039;re about to divorce, shouldn&#039;t you be the biggest supporter? Why are you more indignant than me?&quot;<br /> &quot;I didn&#039;t like you in the beginning, but since you got married, you should have cherished it. Moreover...&quot;<br /> He paused, suggesting meaningfully, &quot;You are more suitable for him than Joanna.&quot;<br /> Madeline called the driver. With his help, they managed to get Jeremy into the car.<br /> After arriving home, getting Jeremy upstairs, and running a bath, she emerged from the bathroom to find Jeremy already asleep on the floor.<br /> Madeline suddenly chuckled. It turned out Jeremy didn&#039;t always maintain his decency and gentleness.<br /> She squatted down and poked him, saying, &quot;Hey, bath time.&quot;<br /> A few seconds later, she urged, &quot;Hurry, or I&#039;ll just leave you here!&quot;<br /> Still, Jeremy gave no response.<br /> Madeline sighed, realizing she had to help him undress.<br /> Then, she assisted him to the bathroom for a bath.<br /> The shower gel had a rich milky scent, a fragrance she personally selected and quite enjoyed.<br /> However, she choked and vomited several times while bathing him.<br /> After finally finishing his bath and getting him into bed, Madeline thought she could take a break.<br /> However, Jeremy suddenly turned around, his hands holding her waist, and murmured, &quot;Don&#039;t go. Stay with me!&quot;<br /> A warm feeling surged in Madeline&#039;s chest, and her heart uncontrollably raced.<br /> It felt like the first time she encountered him. Her heart was almost thumping out of her throat, while her mind was filled with a sweet and warm feeling.<br /> Usually, he was labeled as decisive, calm, and refined. Madeline had never seen him talking to her like this before.<br /> Her heart softened, and she couldn&#039;t bear to push him away.<br /> Fine, it was their last night together.<br /> After the divorce, they wouldn&#039;t share a bed again.<br /> She wanted to keep some last memory.<br /> &quot;Okay,&quot; replied Madeline in a mild tone.<br /> She then laid down beside him and covered both of them with a blanket.<br /> Before sleeping, her fingers lightly traced over his eyebrows, his nose, and his lips.<br /> Finally, they rested on his hand, interlocking with his fingers tighter than ever.<br /> These were things she dared to do only when he was deeply asleep.<br /> The next morning, Madeline was awakened by the vibration of the phone.<br /> Still a bit sleepy, she picked up the phone and placed it near her ear, saying, &quot;Hello.&quot;<br /> <br /> 👇👇👇<br /> There are limited chapters to put here, click the button below to open Dreame to continue reading&quot;Billionaire&#039;s Secret Wife&quot;<br /> (It will automatically jump to the book)
