Upon hearing what her son said, something seemed to be fiercely tugging at Madeline's consciousness.She returned to her senses and calmed down, asking with a smile, "Jack, did he really tell you that? When did he tell you this?""Daddy came to visit Lilly and me last night, but he left really quickly." Jackson's big eyes were filled with loneliness and reluctance. One could see that his feelings for Jeremy were very deep.Madeline's heartbeat became very irregular after listening to her son's words.As if nothing had happened, she kissed his cute little cheek and comforted him. "Jack, have breakfast first. Look, even Lilly is almost done eating."When Lillian heard Madeline mentioning her, she raised her lively big eyes and smiled.Madeline's broken heart was healed a little by this warm smile, but she was still bothered about what her son said just now.After sending the two children to school, Madeline hesitated while holding the mobile phone before finally dialing Jeremy's n
Madeline glanced at Lana. "I said, I have something to tell you."A faint smile appeared on Jeremy's handsome face. "There are no outsiders here. My business is also my girlfriend's business. If Miss Montgomery has something to say, just say it."Jeremy's contemptuous attitude made Madeline’s heart go completely dead.Just as she was about to speak, Lana walked over leisurely and leaned close into Jeremy's side. Her tone was coquettish when she said, ”Jeremy, as your rightful girlfriend, I won't bother your talk with this Miss Montgomery. I’ll go to the dessert shop downstairs to make a reservation. I’ll wait for you to come down and have afternoon tea with me later."Jeremy smiled at Lana softly. "Alright, you go ahead first. I’ll come down and accompany you soon.""Alright." Lana curled her red lips and walked past Madeline with a complacent smile. "Miss Montgomery, I heard that you’re to be married to Ryan Jones soon. Since you can find a man to marry you just after your divorc
The words he uttered from his lips were filled with intense dissatisfaction.His cold eyes had the same dismissive feeling as back then.Madeline looked at this resolute and stern face without any expectation or light in her eyes."Don't worry, I’ll never come to you again. You’re no longer the one I love. The moment you chose Lana, I had already given up on you.""That's for the best," Jeremy sneered with the corners of his seductive lips, "I don't want to be thought of by you anymore. Do you know that in the past few years, I really grew tired of your attachment to me?”Tired.It turned out that he had been tired of her love and attachment toward him since a long time ago.Madeline's cold heart shuddered again.At this moment, her cell phone rang. Ryan was calling.Madeline picked up the call and Ryan's gentle voice sounded. "I'm downstairs Whitman Corporation. Will you still take long?"Madeline adjusted her emotions and replied, "Ryan, I’ll head down right away. Please wa
Madeline was seated in Ryan's car. Looking at the empty ring finger on her left hand, she inevitably remembered her separation and reunion with Jeremy over the years.She was suddenly confused. In these years, had Jeremy ever really loved her?Surely he had.That was why he was able to protect her at all costs back then.That was why when he had hugged her to sleep previously, he would show a pure childlike smile.‘But Jeremy, what wrong step did we take that things have turned out this way between us…’Her heart ached silently. Ryan stretched out his hand suddenly and gently held hers. He did not say anything and just gave Madeline a warm look."I want to make the wedding matters a little simpler. What do you think?" Ryan asked for Madeline's opinion gently.The Joneses were a famous family in Glendale. Now that Ryan was getting married, the wedding was bound to be a sensation.Madeline thought that this might be the case because she had been married twice, got divorced twice
Madeline had just walked to the door of the room when the lights inside suddenly went out.For a moment, she felt a black shadow flashing past her eyes, but it was only for a moment.Madeline reacted instantly and immediately turned on the lights, but after the lights were switched on, there was no one in the room—only an opened wedding photo album that was on the bed.Madeline walked in, faintly smelling a cold light fragrance through her nose. She suddenly understood something.Seeing herself smiling so sullenly in the wedding photo and the man’s cold and cheerless features, Madeline gently picked up the photo album before forcefully tearing the wedding photo in half.Jeremy, who was standing behind the curtain of the balcony, saw this scene. It was as if his heart was being penetrated by a sharp blade.He watched Madeline put down the jewelry box she was gently holding onto before she left without even turning her head.After he saw her drive away, Jeremy returned to the room
"Jeremy, what are you looking at? The light is green," Lana informed. Just as she was about to look in the direction Jeremy was staring at, the car started.Jeremy took a paper towel to wipe the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth.Lana did not notice that Jeremy was coughing up blood, only supporting her cheek with one hand as she looked at Jeremy who was driving with a smitten look on her face."Jeremy, you’re really attractive. I used to play around with so many men, but you’re different. I really have the urge to live with you forever."Jeremy glanced sideways at Lana. "Do you really like me that much?""Of course." Lana’s eyes were filled with infatuation, and she looked confident. "I’ll have you slowly fall in love with me and forget about that Eveline because I believe that love will last for a long time."Jeremy pulled the corners of his lips and smiled meaningfully. "I believe it too."Lana was satisfied with this answer, but she still looked a little concernedly i
Splash, splash!Lillian instinctively struggled in the water.Meanwhile, Lana stood by the pool and enjoyed the scenery. She watched Lillian eventually halt in her struggling, gradually sinking to the bottom of the pool. Lana then took a puff of smoke, her gaze becoming more psychotic and satisfied."Eveline, it seems like I'll be able to see what you’ll look like when you’re suffering in pain soon enough."Lana smiled, then turned around and headed out. She decided to dispose of Lillian's corpse only when she returned.Fabian, who had come out of the house to answer the phone, could vaguely hear some weird noises. He walked toward the pool where the noises came from.At first, he thought it was just a bird that was fluttering on the surface of the swimming pool, but after taking a closer look, he realized that it was a child!He did not know why there was a child in the water. He hurried over and jumped into the water without hesitation.When he saw that the little girl was Li
Fabian retaliated reasonably. “This is my younger sister. Who didn’t shower with their brother when they were younger? What’s wrong with looking?! Besides, I was just changing Lily’s clothes. It’s not as obscene as you think!”Earl and Red covered their mouths and snickered upon hearing that.In the room, Fabian was serious about changing Lily’s clothes. He even asked Earl and Red to go to the mall to buy some clothes immediately as he gently dried Lily’s hair and wiped her face.Seeing the color on the little girl’s face gradually recovering, a relieved smile slowly appeared on Fabian’s face.“With me here, Lillian will definitely be fine.”He promised, but it was very strange how Lily ended up in the pool at home.Although he did not have the brains for business like Yorick did, he was not stupid either.He quickly thought of Lana and decided to ask Lana for an explanation after Lillian woke up.…Madeline and Ryan searched in the park for a long time but did not find any tr
