It was just that he really did not expect someone to have had already penetrated into the Stygian Johnson Gang and was even able to make Yorick obey his orders. Despite the person’s influence, he was still unable to uproot the Stygian Johnson Gang, which showed how solid the foundation of the Stygian Johnson Gang was. After Jeremy left the cafe, he drove to the gates of the kindergarten where Jackson and Lillian were studying.He waited until the end of school, but he still did not see the brother and sister duo coming out from the kindergarten.Feeling puzzled, he got out of the car and went to ask their teacher in charge.The teacher in charge recognized Jeremy's face and spoke a little apprehensively, "I’m really sorry about this, Mr. Whitman. It’s because I didn’t look after Lillian well that she suffered a fright."Mrs. Whitman said Lillian isn’t able to come to school these days. Jackson has also given a notice of absence."After hearing her reply, Jeremy's mood became ext
In fact, Jeremy already knew who had come over when he heard the familiar footsteps.The moment he looked back, it was indeed Madeline he saw.This was the woman he wished he could merge with into his own blood and life.Madeline did not even spare Jeremy a glance, however. She walked straight to the two children. With a gentle and loving smile on her face, she touched the two cute and rosy faces. "Jack, go on in with your sister. Mommy will bake a cake for both of you in a while."Jackson nodded obediently. He held Lillian's fair and tender little hand with his own small hand, glancing at Jeremy before turning away.After watching the two children enter the house, the smile on Madeline's face gradually dissipated."How dare you still come to see Lillian?" Madeline mocked him sarcastically. "Have you seen it now? Lillian can't speak anymore. Are you satisfied with your girlfriend's master plan?"Jeremy did not respond to Madeline's words. He only walked past her and gently put t
He leaned back into the car seat tiredly, tears wetting the corner of his eyes.‘Lillian, Daddy is sorry.‘I hope that before I leave, I can still hear your sweet laughter and hear you happily call me ‘Daddy’.’He touched the family portrait that he kept in secret and let the grief flow through his body. The clearer the pain, the deeper he could remember who the woman he loved was…Madeline stood frozen in place for a long time, unable to understand Jeremy’s behavior.She still hoped that he was having his own struggles, but his performance was extremely ruthless—so ruthless that she could not find any excuse for him.In three days, she would be married to Ryan.Karen was also counting down the days. Two days before the wedding, she went to look for Madeline while deliberately carrying Pudding in her arms. “Eveline, are you really going to marry Ryan? Is there no more chance for Jeremy?”Madeline put the sorted clothes into the suitcase. She lifted the corner of her lips and sm
Although the sky was dark and the lights were off on the inside, Madeline could still see clearly.A woman with short hair wearing a sexy dress was hugging and kissing a tall man.The short-haired woman was of course Lana, and this man, who else could he be other than Jeremy?Although Jeremy told her that he had slept with Lana, Madeline always doubted it.Yet at this moment, seeing was believing. She did not want to believe it but had to.She thought that she could face it calmly, but each beat of her heart only pained her while her breathing became all disordered. At this moment, she was feeling suffocated.Madeline stared at the increasingly unsightly scenes happening inside. After hearing the sound of the woman’s charming laughter, she suddenly turned around and walked toward the elevator. She randomly pressed the elevator buttons with her fingers. Her stomach began to cramp, making her nauseous.Jeremy clearly saw Madeline’s figure angrily leaving from inside the office, th
“Jeremy, what exactly are you thinking?”The man looked at her with a calm and indifferent expression.“Eveline, no matter what I think, I won’t think about you anymore,” he said coldly and took out his ID card again. “Take it if you want to. If you think it’s dirty, then I guess you don’t have to register an account for your son.”“My son? Is he only my son?” Madeline laughed sarcastically. The drops of fine rain fell heavier, blurring her vision.“Do you still remember what you said when you knelt before me? You said, ‘Linnie, I’ll make you happy for the rest of your life.’ But it turns out that the happiness you gave me is so short-lived.”She looked at the ID card that was wet from the rain. She restrained her emotions that were tethering on the edge of a breakdown and refused to shed a tear.“I’m getting married to Ryan the day after tomorrow. I’ll return your ID card when you come for the ceremony.”Madeline took the ID card and left decisively.Jeremy stood in the rain a
Jeremy was surprised. He did not know when Madeline came up from behind him.Madeline was also taken aback because Jeremy's face was as pale as a sheet of paper.The two looked at each other and time seemed to stand still at this moment.Jeremy struggled to suppress the intense smell of blood and the dry itch in his throat. He turned his face away to avoid Madeline's sight, coughing lightly.Jeremy's heart was very flustered at this moment. He was afraid that Madeline would discover that something was wrong with him and she would see through everything."Maddie, why are you standing there? It’s time for a photo." Ava's reminder came from a distance.Madeline looked at the man who was facing her from the side and handed over the ID card."I'm giving it back to you,” she said coldly as she stretched out her hand to him.Jeremy clenched his fists, knowing he could not reach out to Madeline.The palms of his two hands were stained with blood.Seeing Jeremy being indifferent, Made
After Madeline and Ryan returned from chatting with the guests from the Jones family, Ava was found flushed and drunk. She was muttering non-stop, "Maddie, this time, you must have a happy marriage. You must..."Madeline was moved. Ava was one of the few people in this world who truly cared and was concerned for her.At this moment, Madeline had no choice but to ask Daniel to send Ava back home.However, Daniel was also slightly drunk. After helping Ava into the taxi, he leaned against Ava drowsily.He wanted to bring Ava home at first, but the driver unexpectedly stopped the taxi at the entrance of a hotel. With a look of understanding, he opened the car door for Daniel.Daniel was lazy to clarify the truth and helped Ava out of the car.Ava was drunk till the point she almost could not stand still. It was as if her limbs had turned into jelly as she leaned weakly on Daniel."Ava, are you okay?" Daniel was quite worried."Okay?" Ava raised her blurry eyes. "Okay… Maddie needs
Jeremy knew that coming here was only going to hurt him.He just could not let go. He could not let go of the woman who was embedded deeply into his bones.Through the thin and dense drizzle, Jeremy saw Ryan approaching Madeline through the curtains. He got closer to her, and when he lowered his head, it was obvious that he was kissing her.Jeremy held the steering wheel tightly and felt the raindrops outside the car window pounding into his heart. It felt cold and icy.He could not continue being like this anymore. The only thing he could do was leave and go to Whitman Manor, where he could quietly visit the two children who had fallen asleep.In the bedroom.Ryan gave Madeline a light hug before letting go of her."I know you haven't completely let go of Jeremy in your heart. It doesn't matter. I can wait."Ryan's words made Madeline feel guilty.She was already his legal wife, but she still could not fulfill the responsibilities of a wife.Ryan was very empathetic toward h
