After Ryan left, Madeline was left alone in the room.The maids came in once again and delivered the first aid kit and a splendid meal of western cuisine.Madeline looked at her finger which was still bleeding. She knew that she possessed a rare blood group and did not want to continue bleeding."Let me help you, Madam." The young maid was very friendly and came over politely, hoping to offer Madeline a helping hand.Madeline realized she had acted rashly earlier after recalling the incident. She should remain calm as that was the only way to escape from Ryan’s grasp."Alright." Madeline nodded. "Sorry for troubling you with this."The maid happily went ahead and helped Madeline dress her wound after noticing that Madeline was not strongly resisting like earlier.With utmost respect, she squatted beside Madeline and took out the alcohol and cotton swab to clean the wound.Madeline stared at the maid, who was cleaning her wound with a serious look on her face, and asked with a c
"I've already injected her twice, but the effect doesn't seem to be as wonderful as what you said," Ryan said in a cold tone. It seemed that he was not satisfied with the outcome.Adam took his sweet time and said, "The effect of this reagent varies between individuals. If Madeline has a very firm determination, then it might cause the reagent to not perform to its full potential."He paused for a moment before continuing with confidence, "But no matter what, we'll still be able to achieve our ultimate goal.”Ryan raised his brows, his eyes no longer giving off a soothing vibe. Instead, it was replaced by a gleam of evil."Oh yeah, I got the news. Jeremy's in Y Country," Adam said.Ryan was not surprised. "I knew he’d come to Y Country. It was just a matter of time. But he'll never be able to find this place.”His expression became stony. He put down the reagent and gradually got up. Even his orbs were looking stony as well."The number one young master of Glendale... I want to
'It seems like Ryan is serious about it.'Madeline looked at the confident man with a puzzled look.However, Madeline did not know anyone in Y Country. How would it be possible that she would regret it if she did not meet with those two people?"Do you think I'm lying to you?" Ryan noticed Madeline was doubting him. Ryan suddenly placed his hand into his pocket and took out an item. "Do you still remember what this is?"Madeline glanced over at the item and saw that there was a jade bracelet in Ryan's hands. Her expression changed for the worst.She went up to Ryan and took the bracelet.Touching the cold bracelet made her feel as if she could suddenly smell a certain someone's scent."Mom…"Madeline quickly snapped out of it and looked at the words carved on the bracelet, absent-minded. She confirmed that it was Eloise's bracelet!It was Sean's wedding gift to Elosie during their marriage. Hence, for so many years, Eloise never took off the bracelet from her hand.Madeline h
Once again, Madeline felt lethargic, but she tried her best to open her eyes.If she had known that this reagent would wipe off her memories, she would not have behaved tamely like what she did earlier.'But, Dad, Mom…'Sean and Eloise's faces were reflected in Madeline's mind. She had no idea whether Ryan was lying to her or not, but she knew she needed to give it a shot.'But Jeremy, how could I forget about you?'No, I'll never let myself forget you. Never…'In the end, Madeline still passed out. Ryan carried her to the bed and gently covered her with a blanket."How many more doses needed before we are able to wipe off her memories?" Ryan asked Adam."It all depends on her determination."Ryan was not satisfied with Adam's answer, but he did not have any other options.Ryan stepped out of the room and saw Naomi standing by the doorway. His emotionless, murderous gaze was fixed on her."I shot the previous lady who kept pestering and giving Madeline trouble to death. Do y
Madeline's heart started racing after she heard Ryan's words.The two people in her mind were her parents."Go change your clothes. I'll wait for you downstairs." Ryan was all serious and did not seem to be fooling around.After Ryan exited the room, Madeline quickly locked the door and changed into another set of clothes before rushing downstairs.After being brought to this place by Ryan, she had never once left the room.It was only now she realized that the house was elegantly decorated.'They say this is a holiday villa. But in this whole world, how many villas are this expensive and meticulously decorated?'What puzzled Madeline the most was ever since Naomi's appearance that day, she had never seen her again.Of course, she would not be a busybody and ask Ryan about her.Ryan had also changed his clothes. He wore a suit with a necktie, making him look elegant.Madeline followed him to the courtyard.The current weather of Y Country was like autumn in Glendale. The sun
"Linnie must have been somewhere here just now! She saw me!"Jeremy could not be bothered about the red traffic light. Following his instinct and judgment, he ran across the road."Jeremy. Mmm—"Madeline was about to make some noise when Ryan covered her mouth.She saw the man who was slowly inching near her and raised her hand to knock on the car window, attempting to make an effort so that Jeremy could hear her. However, Ryan continued to stop her by grabbing both her hands.He held Madeline tightly in his arms, preventing her from struggling."It's not going to be a good thing if he sees you." Ryan's cold voice was heard coming from behind. "Have you forgotten who we’re going to meet now?"He reminded her. As soon as he was done talking, he could feel that Madeline was no longer trying to struggle and go against him.Her fists that were initially trying to slam the car window gradually loosened up, and finally, she put her hands down helplessly.Madeline's eyes were teary a
Madeline looked at Ryan and felt as if her emotions were being tied up by something invisible.She looked at the door straight ahead and slowly walked up.Madeline's pulse went erratic when she started predicting what she was about to see.Step by step, she walked ahead. Just as she reached the entrance, she heard someone pouring water and it was followed by the appearance of a face right in front of her eyes. This was the same face she could only see in her dreams.Madeline's eyes immediately became red. She raised her hands and supported herself on the door frame."Dad…"Sean had just poured himself a glass of water. Suddenly, he heard someone calling him 'Dad'. This voice made his heart skip a beat.He turned around to face the entrance casually. When he saw Madeline, who was standing beside the door, Sean immediately widened his orbs as the glass slipped away from his hand.Crash!The glass dropped to the floor and shattered into pieces.Eloise heard the commotion and cam
"Eveline?" Eloise snapped out of it and widened her big, pretty eyes. She examined Madeline with a critical gaze. Then, she shook her head. "This is not Eveline, no."Madeline felt something within her breaking into pieces when she heard Eloise denying her.She looked over at Eloise, who was behind Sean, with a cautious gaze as tears started flowing.Madeline composed herself and said to Sean, "Why is she this way? Why can't she recognize me? Dad, what's going on?"Sean let out a long sigh and said while feeling heartbroken, "It's all because of Lana.""Lana?"Sean nodded, his eyes gleaming with a deep hatred for Lana."Because of her, our house was burned into ashes. Your mom thought that you were burnt to death when the fire happened. Ever since then, she keeps saying she wants to look for you. Day in day out, she would keep muttering your name hundreds of times, or even thousands of times…"At that point, Sean choked. He grasped Eloise's hand. His eyes were still brewing wit
