Jeremy's wise eyes swept across Fabian's face coldly. "Fabian, do you know why I became like this?"When Fabian heard Jeremy say this, he was filled with anger.He looked at Jeremy, noticing his linen gray hair and amber pupils. There was indeed a big change from the previous Jeremy.He did not quite understand it, but then he heard Jeremy say in a dissatisfied tone, "It's your good sister Lana who used a type of poison to make me like this.""What?" Fabian was shocked. "Didn't she like you a lot? How could she do such a thing to you?""Heh," Jeremy sneered, "That kind of woman, did you think that she really liked me? In this world, only Linnie cares about me sincerely.""..." Fabian was speechless for a moment. He was even more disgusted as to why he had a sister like Lana.The atmosphere in the car fell into a brief silence. After a while, Fabian could not sit still."Jeremy, are you driving in the wrong direction? Why haven't you found that car?"Jeremy did not open his mou
Jeremy and Fabian had not expected the man’s insane behavior.Seeing the car instantly surrounded by fire, Jeremy and Fabian ran toward Lillian at the same time.Jeremy's heart was as if it was being suspended from a height of 3,000 feet. His eyes were red when he looked at the child who had stayed in place because of his coldness.It was only a few steps away, but it was as if they were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.Jeremy hurried over, but suddenly, the car exploded violently."Lillian!" Fabian yelled hysterically.Lillian's petite body went flying from the explosive air current. Jeremy was enraged as he rushed to catch Lillian who was about to fall to the ground."Lillian!"He took the child into his arms."Lillian! Lillian!"The little girl blinked her big round eyes weakly. Looking at the man in front of her, her little mouth moved.“Daddy.”Although no sound came from the little girl's mouth, Jeremy saw it. She was calling him ‘Daddy’.Jeremy's visi
She opened her eyes slowly, and when she woke up, she only saw darkness with the only light around being from the car’s lights.The passenger door then opened. Ryan was standing outside the door, and his voice sounded out lightly. "We’re here. Get out of the car."Madeline looked around vigilantly before getting out of the car.Ryan led the way as Madeline followed behind him.She looked around. Apart from the darkness, there was more darkness. It was as if she was surrounded by a huge black cloth.Apart from their overlapping footsteps, there was no other noise.After walking for about tens of yards, there was gradually light ahead.Ryan stopped his footsteps in front of a door. He unlocked the door by scanning his eyes and then looked at Madeline meaningfully with a smile."First, I’ll bring you to meet an old friend."As Ryan's voice fell, a figure appeared in Madeline's periphery.She followed the figure who was captured by her sight and saw the man who she once regarded
Madeline looked at the anti-toxoid reagent in front of her and thought of Jeremy.She knew that Jeremy would definitely not be willing to see her compromising and accepting Ryan's despicable demands.However, she knew better that she did not want to see a day when he would be in so much pain.Madeline clenched her fists tightly and looked at the man in front of her who looked like his victory was already determined. Her gaze was firm."Ryan, you can make a request, but if you cross the line, I won’t compromise."Ryan walked up to Madeline and picked up the anti-toxoid reagent in his hand. He smiled deeply. "I'm afraid you have no reason to refuse. I don't want him to suffer. You have no choice but to agree."...Hospital.Jeremy was pacing back and forth in the corridor anxiously. The calmness he always had was gone at this moment.There was still blood on his palms that he had not managed to wash off. All of them came from Lillian.Jeremy closed his eyes and took a deep brea
His emotions were very unstable. Lilian's safety was still undetermined. As a father, he could only use such a way to vent out his dissatisfaction and sense of insecurity.It was at this moment that the lights of the operating theater were turned off.Jeremy got up and strolled to the doctor who was coming out. "Doctor, how's my daughter doing? She's bleeding heavily. Where is she injured? Will my daughter's life be in danger?"He kept bombarding the doctor with tons of questions, his eyes glistening with anxiety."The child’s back was grazed with metal scraps. She was bleeding a lot and in a rather critical phase. Fortunately, she was sent to the hospital just in time. For the time being, there's no danger to her life."The doctor then let out a sigh."However, the child’s head has suffered from a serious concussion. We'll have to wait till the child is awake before carrying out further examinations."Hearing the comment made Jeremy want to punch himself real hard.He was blam
Madeline asked straightforwardly, and the lady on the other end of the call giggled. "Eveline Montgomery, you don't have to be so eager to know who I am. Soon, we'll meet up.""I don't want to meet with someone who hides in a dark corner and sneers. Stop calling," Madeline warned her, and when she was about to hang up, the lady voiced out once again."You don't wish to meet up with me, but I'm looking forward to our encounter. Well, as a gift for our encounter, just think of your muted daughter who’s lying in the hospital with her life still in a critical phase.""What did you say? What do you mean?!" Madeline suddenly thought of something. "Did you order someone to kidnap my daughter?""You're right, it's me." The lady quickly admitted it. "But don't you worry, Eveline. I'll never lay a finger on you. Instead, I want you to be safe and healthy to witness how I torture those around you and make you suffer!"After the lady blurted out her last comment, the call was hung up abruptly
"Perhaps people like me should have just dropped dead for good. Last time, I harmed you and made you suffer so much. Now, I’ve harmed our daughter. I'm not even a human!"Jeremy hated himself. He raised his fist again and drove it straight to the wall, ignoring the pain that came flooding a second after."Don't bother about me, Linnie. Please stop loving someone like me, a cold-hearted man who never appreciates his beloved wife and daughter. I don’t deserve to have you guys. You and the kids should find a reliable man and forget about me."Madeline raised her gaze as soon as he was done talking.Her eyes went red. She raised her hand and slapped him across the face. "Do you have any idea what you’re babbling on about? Jeremy Whitman, are you still trying to break my heart up to this date? In my entire life, except for you, who else can I fall in love with?! You tell me, what should I do to completely forget about you? Tell me!"Madeline shouted while feeling heartbroken. It was as
Madeline could recognize the voice. It was the same person who had been provoking her over the phone these days, the woman who said that Lillian was Madeline’s mute daughter!After being recognized, the lady seemed as if she had come well prepared. She curled her red lips and smirked. "Eveline, I said we'll soon meet each other. Aren't you surprised?"Madeline could not make out who the voice belonged to, but that evil smirk reminded her of someone."Are you there, Miss Montgomery?" The researcher's curious voice was heard over the phone.Madeline thought of taking off the lady's sunglasses, but her thoughts were suddenly disrupted."I'm sorry. I'm still all ears," Madeline quickly replied. However, the next time she raised her head, she realized the lady was missing. There was only a special scent that smelled rather special.Madeline knew that lady was trying to stir trouble on purpose and did not bother wasting another second at the parking lot.She focused all her attention
