Jeremy walked in with a calm expression and a chill surrounding his body."Jeremy." Felipe addressed him.Jeremy did not respond. His cold eyes swept across the dining table before finally falling on Madeline's pale face."Madeline, what are you even asking? I am your husband. Is it so weird for me to have the key?""...""Do you blatantly bring other men back to eat and drink when I’m not around?"Jeremy spoke with a smile but he shot Felipe a sharp gaze. "So, Uncle Felipe, you like this kind of woman?"Madeline's heartbeat stuttered.‘This kind of woman.’ He used these words to describe her.Madeline's face went even paler with that, but she did not dare confront him again.Facing him now, she was like a frightened bird, alarmed and uneasy."Jeremy, don't get me wrong," Felipe explained calmly, "I was just worried that something was going on with Madeline, so I came to see her.""Hmph." Jeremy sneered again. "Worried about this cruel, mean, and sinister woman?"Madeline'
As he was done speaking, he picked up his coat and turned away.Madeline looked at Felipe's back as he was leaving and the light in her eyes extinguished bit by bit. There was nothing but despair left in her eyes in the end.She did not know how Jeremy would deal with her, she only knew that his methods would definitely be very cruel.She would never forget that he was like a demon from hell. He had dug through the grave and allowed the ashes of his own daughter to be washed away by the wind and snow, and he had actually smiled nonchalantly at that.Seeing Madeline's reddened eyes gazing in the direction of Felipe's departure, Jeremy got angry."Are you this sad about him leaving? Madeline Crawford, are you treating me as if I am dead? I am the one who is your husband."He pushed Madeline away from his arms angrily.Madeline staggered and fell by the side of the sofa, brushing her injured cheek against the corner of the sofa and causing her teeth to tremble in pain."Clean this
Madeline suddenly felt her entire body go cold, the blood in her body seemed to have been frozen. She stared at this sneering man in a daze. He was just like Satan in the dark night, his whole body was black.It turned out he wanted to see her die.‘Jeremy, very soon it would be as you wish.’‘May you still be as calm as in this moment when the day comes.’Yet, when she started having the thought of completely leaving this world and forgetting this man forever, she, however, felt a lot of reluctance in her heart.To this day, she still had some feelings for him.Madeline's tears began to fall all of a sudden, but no matter how hot her tears were, it could not warm her heart."Why are you crying? Are you trying to pretend to be pitiful again?"Jeremy sneered, his warm, slender fingers pinched Madeline's chin, forcing her to look up at him."Do you think I will fall for your trick like those men? Your face is already healed so why are you still wrapping yourself up with gauze?
She could even feel his strong, powerful heartbeat.But what was going on?She tried hard to recall what happened last night, but she only remembered that she ran out as she didn’t want Jeremy to see her current hideous appearance. Alas, she fainted while running.Just as she was trying to recall what happened, Jeremy seemed to have woken up.Overcome by shock, Madeline immediately closed her eyes, her heart beating so fast to the point it almost jumped out of her throat. Jeremy opened his eyes and gradually raised the arm he had around Madeline’s waist, then proceeded to get off the bed.Madeline thought that Jeremy left at first, but she suddenly felt his breath closing in on her. The next moment, his forehead leaned against hers as if he were sensing her body temperature. Madeline didn’t dare to believe Jeremy’s current actions. Even more so, she didn’t dare to believe that he tucked her into the blanket attentively before leaving. Madeline finally opened her eyes after
Madeline was certain that Jeremy knew for sure that he was the Mr. Whitman that she was referring to. She thought that he would show some empathy and remorse toward that incident, but all she heard was the sound of his disdainful scoff. “Madeline, you’re still adamant on attaching that bastard to my namesake till today. I’ll tell you once again that I, Jeremy Whitman, only have one biological son, and he is Jackson Whitman,” he said.After he finished talking with a cold smile on his face, he let go of the hand he was using to hold Madeline in place. “I’m hungry, go get a bowl of porridge for me,” he said. Madeline clenched both her fists tightly. Looking at the cold, merciless man before her, she said in a dull tone, “I didn’t make enough for you, Mr. Whitman. The portion here is small, please go back.” “Madeline Crawford, is this the attitude you’re going to have while talking to me?” Jeremy asked, his brows furrowing slightly. It was evident that he was displeased.Madel
Madeline went to the hospital again. She didn’t go there for the wound on her face but went there to visit Eloise instead.Since it was nearing the new year, the atmosphere of the new year could even be detected in the hospital. Madeline wore her mask and saw a flower vendor at the entrance of the hospital. After thinking for a bit, she finally chose a bunch of pink carnations. She grabbed a pen and a piece of paper from her bag. After writing the words “Madam Eloise Patton, I wish you a speedy recovery” on the paper, she placed it in the middle of the bouquet.Madeline enquired about Eloise’s ward from the reception desk. She was located in the VIP ward section.However, Madeline hesitated when she arrived in front of the room’s door. Nobody will welcome her here. She would just be seeking humiliation if she went in. However, inexplicably, she couldn’t let go of Eloise from her heart. At this moment, laughter rang out from the room.“Eloise, just look at how much you’re
After the impact, Madeline leaned against the wall, her head spinning. She did not notice the gold pendant she always had hidden in her clothes slip out. However, Meredith noticed immediately! She definitely noticed the butterfly-shaped gold pendant that slipped out of Madeline’s collar!She did not forget, three years ago, she when heard that Madeline could be Eloise’s daughter by birth, she tried all sorts of ways to obtain Eloise’s own personal toothbrush from Brittany, and at the same time, she stole Madeline’s clothes that had her DNA in order to perform a DNA test.The results stated that Madeline really was the daughter that Eloise and Sean Montgomery had been looking for over twenty years!It caused Meredith to feel incredibly envious but also gave birth to another evil thought. She devised a fake show with Rose and Jon which caused Eloise and Sean to suspect that she would be their daughter that was mistakenly taken away from the hospital all those years ago. Eloise a
The pendant fell on the back of Madeline’s foot and bounced off before landing next to Eloise’s wheelchair. Madeline coughed as her face turned red, her throat was extremely sore. She did not notice the sudden change in Meredith and Rose’s expressions, but she did hear Eloise’s surprised shout.“This! This gold pendant!”Eloise’s voice was shaking, and she was even stuttering. Madeline looked over with suspicion and saw Eloise pressing onto where she had her surgery before standing up from the wheelchair to pick up the pendant. “Sean! Sean!” Eloise cried out for Sean. When Sean heard Eloise’s cries, he ran over. The moment he saw the pendant in Eloise’s hand, he looked extremely shocked, it was as if he had recovered something that was long lost.“This! This is the pendant we had custom made for our precious Linnie all those years ago! Did you finally find it?” What?Madeline did not even have time to catch her breath when she heard Sean say that. Her mind suddenly went bla
Gina, who was standing at the door, saw this scene and was about to walk in when she was stopped by her husband.“Stop causing more trouble. Do you really want your son to be a bachelor for the rest of his life?”“Who said I'm going to make trouble? I’m going to tell them that I agree to this marriage now, okay?”Her husband was startled. “You’re agreeing to this?”Gina was about to answer when out of the corners of her eyes, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the lights in the room. It was followed by cheers and applause from inside.Ava pulled herself out of Daniel's embrace. She was surprised to find Madeline and Jeremy, her parents, and even Tom and Maisie slowly approaching them with smiles on their faces.Ava stared blankly at Madeline. Then, she finally understood that they had all worked together to arrange this.Only she and Daniel’s parents were kept in the dark.Daniel had never thought of leaving her at all. He just used a different approach to let her know that she w
Upon hearing this, Gina slowly stopped.She never thought that Ava still had some respect for her in her heart.This really surprised her.However, she soon heard Madeline stand up for Ava. “Ava, you respect them, but have they ever respected you? Respect should be mutual.”“But Danny will always be their son. If Dan and I insist on getting married, his parents won’t be happy about it for the rest of their lives,” Ava said with a helpless sigh. “I really don't want Dan to be caught in the middle of this matter.”“But Ava…”“Maddie, don't persuade me. You should know best that when you truly love someone, you don't have to stay with them. As long as they’re safe, healthy, and happy, that's enough, isn't it?”There was a smile of relief on Ava's face as if she had already made a final decision in her heart.Madeline wanted to persuade her a little more, but nothing seemed appropriate at this moment.“Ava, are you leaving, then? Are you going to stop looking for him now?”“I've
Daniel's parents, who were secretly observing Ava in the distance, gradually became more and more restless in the car.“Hmph, how dare she say that she has a deep relationship with Dan? It's been so long and she still doesn't know where Dan has gone,” Gina rolled her eyes and complained.Daniel's father glanced at Gina. “Stop being so mean. Right now, the most important thing is to find Dan. Ava isn’t a bad person. In the beginning, you disliked her because she didn’t have parents, money, and power. Now, her parents are alive and well, her mother is extremely rich, and her father is a specialist doctor and professor. What else are you dissatisfied with? Do you really want your son to stay single his entire life?”Gina was not happy when her husband was complaining about her. “Didn't you object at the beginning as well? I agreed with the relationship after that, but your father refused to agree to save his reputation. Why are you blaming me now?”“Stop talking.” Daniel's father in
After Old Master Graham read Daniel's message, he was so angry that his eyes were wide open.‘He just got out of the hospital and he ran away for a woman?‘He even said that if he can't marry that woman, he won't get married in the future?’Old Master Graham would never allow such a thing to happen.However, when he thought about it, he still felt a little nervous.If Daniel really did not get married because of this, would this not be the end of the Graham family?‘I can’t let this happen.’After Ava ran out, she went to find Daniel in all the places she could think of. However, after spending the entire morning, she still could not find Daniel.She tried to call Daniel, and although the call was connected, it was always unanswered.As time passed, Ava felt very tired. She sat down on the chair by the roadside and watched the street where people came and went. Then, a deep sense of loss welled up from the bottom of her heart.‘Dan, have you decided to just give up?‘Are we
“I'll be right back!”Gina hurriedly ran back. Suddenly, she turned back and stopped Ava, who was about to follow her.“Don’t follow me! You’re not welcomed at our house.”Despite Gina's warning, Ava could not stop herself from looking for Daniel.She did not know what was going on. How could Daniel suddenly be discharged by himself? He had obviously been in a coma on the hospital bed. He did not wake up this whole time.On the way there, Ava called Daniel, but Daniel did not answer.Ava did not know if Daniel had his phone with him, but in short, she could not get into contact with him.She wanted so badly to stand in front of Daniel right now, but there was traffic on the way.When Ava followed Gina into the door of Graham Manor, she heard Gina's sharp voice. “What? Dan’s gone? Where did he go? D-Didn't he just wake up? What the hell is going on?”“Look at this and you'll know what's going on." Daniel's father sounded like he was reproaching someone, then he seemed to hand s
Ava stared at the empty ward for a while. Then, she returned to her senses and immediately went to look for Daniel.However, after looking around for a while, Ava could not find Daniel, which made her feel a little nervous.At this time, Gina also came in.She saw that the ward was empty, and Daniel, who was supposed to be lying on the hospital bed, had disappeared.“What’s going on? Where’s Dan? Did the doctor take Dan away?” Gina looked at Ava and asked with an unfriendly expression on her face.Ava was used to Gina's attitude, so she did not bother to argue with Gina. Instead, she replied, “I want to know as well.”“How could you not know? You came before me.”“Dan wasn't in the ward when I came,” Ava said and turned around. “I'll go to the nurse's station and ask.”“Wait.”Gina grabbed Ava, her face was dark.“Ava, let me tell you this. Dan has suffered a lot and gotten a lot of injuries because of you. Because of you, both Naya and her mother have been sent to prison. It
Since Julie was about to think that way, it showed that she was a reasonable person.“Lily.” Julie walked up to Lillian and squatted down, giving her a friendly blessing. “Lily, I really like you. I hope you can be happy every day, and I hope you’ll be able to speak soon.”Lillian was a sensible child. She raised a sweet smile and nodded vigorously, indicating that she acknowledged Julie's blessing.Julie stood up and faced Fabian. Right now, there was a little more admiration in her eyes and a little less of her unwilling persistence before.If one liked someone, one did not necessarily have to stubbornly fight for it.Julie did not say anything and just smiled at Fabian.Fabian did not say anything more either. He bent over and picked Lillian up in his arms. Before turning around, he gave Julie a friendly smile.“Miss Charles, you can still come to me if you need help in the future. After all, I still owe you a favor.”Julie smiled and shook her head. “You stopped owing me an
“I did,” Fabian admitted frankly.Julie thought she would feel embarrassed because of this, but she did not know why she still felt very relaxed. Even so, she still felt a little embarrassed.In order to not make Julie feel embarrassed, Fabian smiled and said, “I wanted to help you get out of that situation, Miss Charles, but I didn't want to cross the line. I also didn’t expect someone to have taken a video and put it on the internet. Lily and I have caused you much trouble. I'm really sorry about that.”Fabian paused as he spoke, then, he glanced at Lillian softly.“But Miss Charles, rest assured, there’ll be no such trouble in the future.”Julie was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and she inexplicably felt a strong sense of loss coming up from the bottom of her heart.She looked at Fabian suspiciously, and sure enough, the words she heard next made her feel remorseful.“Miss Charles, I’ve found a more suitable school for Lily, and it’s closer to where I work so
The scene of Mr. Martinez causing a ruckus and Fabian coming to the rescue with Lillian at the end was all recorded and posted on the internet.This person was still a little conscientious and had censored Lillian's appearance, but Fabian's figure and face were clearly visible in the video.Patty recognized the person in the video as Fabian at a glance.After seeing the comments below, Patty was even more anxious.“Julie, how could you fall in love with a single father?”Julie frowned. “Yes, I won't deny it. I do have a crush on Mr. Johnson.”“What?”“Tsk tsk… Julie, do you really like this single father?” The look in Mrs. Gill's eyes was very subtle. “Someone dug up all his information, and it turns out that this man is Yorick's younger brother. Back then, Yorick stirred up all kinds of troubles and did whatever he wanted in F Country. His sister, Lana, was also notorious in our circle.”“What? He's Yorick and Lana's younger brother?” Patty was even more nervous, for fear that
