Ryan walked into the living room. Then, he heard a loud crash as if something was smashed.He frowned in confusion and quickly walked in. However, he was stunned by what he saw in front of him."Eveline!"He quickly ran to the drunk Madeline who was kneeling on the ground and helped her up.Madeline pushed him away. “Leave me alone!”She picked up the bottle of red wine and downed it directly.She was still wearing the clothes from earlier and her body was wet. Her hair and her eyes were wet as well.“Why did he tell me such a thing? Why?” Madeline cried and complained, “I can endure everything as long as he’s well. Why did he suddenly say he’s tired now?”Madeline laughed bitterly at herself. “How many years has it been? How many years have I loved this man?” she asked herself as she raised her red tearful eyes to look at Ryan while frowning.“I liked him the moment I saw him. He hurt me and traumatized me in all those years but I forgave him. However, what happened in the en
Seeing Madeline's serious appearance, Ryan put down the cup of coffee and looked at Madeline curiously. “What do you want to talk to me about?”Madeline looked down slightly before turning around and walking to the French window. “Last night, I was so defeated and it was difficult for me to accept his cold-heartedness. Maybe you’re right and I should let it go. Maybe this marriage between me and Jeremy has just been one-sided this whole time.”Ryan looked at Madeline's back thoughtfully.“So what you want to discuss with me is…”“I don't know what kind of punishment he’ll face next. I only hope that if he really has to die, at least he won’t be in so much pain in the days before the execution.”Ryan gradually understood Madeline's meaning. “You want me to give Jeremy the anti-toxoid test reagents?”“Yes. Regardless of the verdict, I hope you can give him the reagents.”Madeline turned around. Her misty and beautiful eyes seemed to have a magical power that caused Ryan to be abse
“Eveline, what are you doing?” Jeremy looked puzzled.“We were husband and wife. I don't want you to die with this horrible poison inside of you.” Madeline looked straight at the man and injected the reagent into Jeremy's arm without hesitation.She looked at the man who was not struggling. The corners of her eyes were turning red. “You’re going to court tomorrow and I hope that this isn’t the last time we’re meeting.”Jeremy seemed lost when he heard what Madeline said.Madeline's sad face was reflected in his pupils. Before he could say anything, she left.As soon as Madeline walked out the door, she saw Ryan waiting for her.She walked up to him, said thank you, and got in the car.Ryan knew that Madeline was feeling depressed now, so he did not bother Madeline.After he sent Madeline home, he thoughtfully made a cup of coffee for her. “Don't think too much about it. I’ll accompany you to the hearing tomorrow.”Madeline took the coffee and nodded gently.“I'm going to the
Madeline's pink lips curled slightly. The tall and handsome figure was reflected in her clear and beautiful pupils.Jeremy was wearing a tailored suit, a black shirt, and a burgundy tie. He was standing in the defendant's seat while looking cool and elegant.Compared to how tired and sick he looked in the previous two days, he was now in a very good state and also in good spirits.He had a graceful posture, and he exuded a kind of calm and relaxed charm.He was not at all like a criminal awaiting sentence, but rather a domineering adjudicator who wanted to try others.Ryan looked at Jeremy indifferently.It did not matter how good Jeremy's image was nor how strong his aura was now.He could not escape from being accused of homicide now that they had conclusive evidence.Ryan curled up the corners of his lips and smiled openly at Jeremy's calm gaze.He seemed to be showing off his victory.After the verdict was announced, Jeremy's reputation in Glendale would completely be des
He stared at her quietly with deep eyes before saying, “I have nothing to say.”Jeremy's response gave rise to all kinds of speculation.“Jeremy has nothing to say. Is that an acquiescence?”“We have the witnesses and physical evidence too. He can’t refute at all in the first place.”“I really didn’t expect him to have really killed someone.”“Aw, I used to admire him and idolize him!”The murmurs of people in the gallery basically confirmed Jeremy of those accusations. The discussions on the internet were the same.Madeline looked at Karen and Winston on the other side. They were frowning while looking very worried.“Why isn’t Jeremy defending himself? How is it possible that he would kill someone? He wouldn’t commit murder!” Karen muttered incoherently.Winston also frowned. “Don't get too worked up. If Jeremy didn’t do it, he won’t let himself be accused of such a crime.”“Quiet.” The judge hit the gavel, then talked about the police officer's murder last night. He summone
The smile on Ryan's face froze when Madeline suddenly said such a thing.He turned his head to look at Madeline who was smiling and calm. Then, doubts started forming in his heart.‘New evidence?‘What new evidence is she going to provide?’The judge looked at Madeline carefully. “Who are you?”Madeline bowed politely. “I’m Jeremy Whitman's wife, and my name is Eveline Montgomery.”Ryan frowned when she heard Madeline's self-introduction. The netizens watching the live broadcast and the people watching in the gallery were casting all kinds of weird glances and saying unkind remarks at Madeline once again.Was this woman sick?One second, she said that Jeremy was her husband. In the next second, she would be seen with Ryan. Now, she was claiming to be Jeremy's wife in court?What the hell was going on?The prosecution lawyer immediately stated, “Your Honor, unreviewed exhibits are not allowed to be shown in court. This is unreasonable!”“The rules are dead but as humans, we’r
Karen and Winston were both shocked. Then, they looked at Madeline who was still calm while feeling puzzled.“Eveline, don't make the same mistakes again and again. We’re in court.” It seemed that Ryan was persuading her in such a gentle and kind manner.Madeline smiled profoundly. “Ryan, I can’t continue this act anymore and you don't have to as well.”“...” Ryan was stunned. While looking at Madeline who was proud and arrogant at this moment, he could not associate her with the heartbroken woman who drowned herself with alcohol that night.It was all an act?Her vulnerable side, her sadness, and her grief that night were all just an act?“Ryan, I knew you would say that I’m forging evidence for Jeremy, but a lie is still a lie, after all. Lies will never prosper in the face of the truth.”Ryan looked dispiritedly at Madeline who was standing not far away from him. Then, he saw her bending down to pick up a bag from Ken’s side.His pupils shrank as he looked at the bag Madelin
The woman in the video was wrapped in a bath towel and was standing in front of a slender and elegant man.It was unknown what they were talking about. Then, the man took out a gun with a silencer all of a sudden and shot the woman on her calf.The woman immediately slumped to the ground in pain while leaning against the wall.After that, the man shot the woman on her shoulder again. Finally, he directly shot the woman in her heart.This scene of the shooting was as clear as day.Due to the distance between the two buildings, the faces of the man and woman were a little fuzzy, but from the silhouettes and clothes, it could be determined that the man in the black suit was Ryan while the woman was Lana.“Oh my God!”“It’s Ryan!”“I didn't expect Ryan to be the real murderer!”“He actually killed someone and still blamed Jeremy for it?”“This is too insidious!”The people in the gallery were stunned as the comments online went insane.Then, Madeline provided another video. “Ry
