I told her very clearly that I wouldn't marry her. I loved Myra but what did she do to me? She promised me she would let go of Mr. But behind my back, she plotted against me and set me up so that Myra would see her in my bed. Because of that, Myra broke up with me. Your mother has never been blameless in this tragedy! I became like this because of her! Do you understand?" "Bullshit!" Jeremy did not believe that his gentle mother would pull such a plot.

She said she despised him. Besides, Emily could not conceive and with that in mind, he found her together with Barbara, he ended up making this decision. Dexter's eyes darkened. "Have you found out the identity of the person who abducted the child?" "No, the hospital's surveillance video was blurry and the man wore a mask, therefore his face was not apparent at all," John replied. That was a premeditated act!
