Jeremy slowed down because of that word.It had been so long since he heard that name, and he would still feel sweet when he heard it.The memory that seemed to be covered in the dust as time passed was once again unfolded before his eyes.Jeremy figured that Madeline was also probably thinking of the unforgettable memory of being at the beach with him back then.He smiled knowingly, and suddenly, he had an urge to tease Madeline.“Is the Jez you’re talking about a very important person to you?” Jeremy asked deliberately in suspicion.Madeline snapped back from her memories and answered seriously without thinking, “Of course, he’s important.”“How important?”When Madeline was about to answer, she suddenly retorted unhappily, “Why should I tell you?”“...” Jeremy had nothing to say at that moment. In fact, he knew the answer in his heart a long time ago.‘Linnie, I’ll make you slowly remember that I’m the Jez who’s very important to you,’ Jeremy promised silently. Just then,
He was the man who made her wait for too long until Ryan was able to torture her into this state.“Tomorrow. Tomorrow, I’ll take you back to wait for Jeremy.” He coaxed her as he was left with no other choice.Tomorrow, he would take her back to Glendale.After all, this was Y Country. This place would not be as comfortable as her hometown.When night fell, Jeremy made a sumptuous dinner by himself. Madeline was satisfied with the meal. She did not resist him as much as before and was willing to eat the shrimp that Jeremy peeled for her.Moreover, there was a small and elegant smile on her face.For a moment, Jeremy also felt that he was content with their current state.She had experienced too many bumps and pains along the way. She only had a handful of happy days.Suddenly, he hoped that she could be as carefree as she was now. He hoped that she would be able to live a carefree and peaceful life with a childlike nature.After nightfall, Jeremy prepared a bath for Madeline b
Jeremy thought he had heard it wrong, but soon after, he heard Madeline calling him again.“Are you there?” she asked. There was no longer the sound of running water coming from inside, so her voice was particularly clear.“You said you'll be keeping watch at the door, but now you’re not answering me when I'm calling you, you liar.”Madeline's complaints fell into Jeremy's ears.He never knew that he would be so happy even after being accused of being a liar.Jeremy did not hesitate anymore. He opened the bathroom door again and walked straight in.Madeline had finished showering and was wearing a loose bathrobe while sitting on the edge of the bathtub.There was still some lingering mist that had not dissipated in the bathroom. Under the hazy mist, Madeline's red face that was covered with water droplets looked like an untainted lotus as it beautifully reflected in Jeremy's pupils.Jeremy would be lying if he said he was not moved, but he could only endure it at this moment.
His low magnetic voice somewhat bewitchingly passed through Madeline's ears like a summer night breeze.Madeline stood still as if she was caught in a trance as she watched the handsome face slowly approach.Jeremy tentatively pecked Madeline on the lips, and just as he expected, Madeline did not dodge him.Jeremy's heart rate started to get irregular. He grabbed Madeline's waist and kissed her again.With her eyes wide open, Madeline let Jeremy take over without a hint of resistance.Jeremy felt a little happy that Madeline was submissive to him.He could feel something. Maybe Madeline did not remember what kind of person Jeremy was, but Madeline still had feelings for him through contact. Therefore, she did not resist him as much as before.Jeremy lay down with Madeline in his arms. He pulled the belt of Madeline's bathrobe, but she suddenly pulled away from him.He opened his eyes to see her looking flustered, and her eyes were full of panic."Linnie, what's the matter?" He
Jeremy's first instinct was to grab Madeline's hand and hold her in his arms.He thought it was Ryan, but he lightened up when he saw the man who entered the apartment.Madeline did not care who it was as she only nervously held Jeremy's hand, her eyes red and watery."Where's your phone? Give it to me. I'll call you an ambulance!" She anxiously rummaged through Jeremy's pockets."There’s no need to call an ambulance. He'll be fine." Adam strode over to Jeremy with his medical kit.Madeline finally seemed to notice that someone had entered. She looked at Adam and was somehow stunned.Adam put down the medical kit and squatted in front of Jeremy.He took a look at Jeremy's condition before quickly taking out a syringe and the reagent before skillfully injecting Jeremy with it.Once again, Jeremy felt the familiar chill seeping through every cell of his body. After a brief period of numbness, the discomfort gradually subsided and his condition eased.Madeline noticed the change
"If it's a secret, how can I tell it to someone else so easily?" Adam did not seem to want to go into detail, but he was not hiding it either. He met Jeremy's inquiring gaze and said truthfully, "Jeremy, if I tell you that I didn't develop this slow-acting poison, would you believe me?" Jeremy would not have believed him if it was before.Now, he answered without hesitation, "Yes."There was a glint in Adam's eye when he got the answer, and gloom appeared on his handsome face."Do you know why I wanted to become a doctor?"Jeremy pondered for a few seconds and said, "It involves your parents, doesn’t it?"Adam was not surprised that Jeremy would have such speculation. "It seems that you’ve checked my background.""I've read up on you and Ryan," Jeremy admitted generously.Adam smiled faintly. He lowered his eyes slightly, and the reflection on his glasses made it hard to see his eyes and expression right now."From the moment I officially became a doctor and took the oath on
Sean was stunned for a moment before chuckling coldly."Are you saying that Lana used you? Hmph, that doesn't take away the fact that you started the fire! Did you forget how obedient you were to Lana? You wouldn't even glance at Eveline!" Sean was mad.At the end of the day, Sean could not forgive Jeremy for his coldness and indifference to Madeline back then."Eveline thought you were dead and cried every night. As her father, I know it full well!"She labored to carry a child for you, but what did you do? Didn't your heart ache when you let that crazy woman make Eveline so mad that she went into early labor and gave birth to Pudding unassisted?"Jeremy furrowed his long eyebrows slightly. 'How could I not be heartbroken?'When he saw her bleeding and suffering, he realized how important she was to him.It was just that he was blinded by the memories Lana had been feeding him."Jeremy, ask yourself how much Eveline loves and cares about you. You said you'd spend the rest of y
Karen was stunned after hearing what Madeline said. "Eveline, what... What are you talking about? This is Jack and Lillian. What's the matter? You don't recognize them?" she asked in disbelief. Her eyes shifted from Madeline's confused face to Jeremy."Jeremy, Eveline..."Jeremy had a distressed frown on her face. "Ryan drove her insane.""What?!" Karen was shocked and instantly furious. "What did Ryan do to Eveline? How could someone be driven insane?"Jeremy frowned deeper. However, for fear of upsetting Madeline, he spoke nothing and told Karen to hold off the questioning.He made Jackson take Lillian away to play on their own while he took Madeline back to their bedroom.When Madeline walked into her and Jeremy's room, the familiar furnishing was unfamiliar to her.However, Madeline seemed to be interested in the room's furnishing. She picked up a photo album next to the bedside table. After opening it, she saw a photo of herself wearing a wedding dress next to a delicate-lo
