Madeline and Jeremy also raised their eyes and saw the doctor sighing helplessly. “We’ve tried our best and our hardest, but the patient does not have the will to survive. You need to prepare yourselves.”Upon hearing this, both Mr. and Mrs. Jones became lifeless.Madeline glanced sideways into the ICU.She thought about the words Ryan said to her before collapsing and the sincere look in his eyes at that time.‘Ryan.‘You haven't atoned for what you have done. Are you really going to give up everything and give up the idea of survival just like this?’“Eveline!”Mrs. Jones' emotional shriek pulled back Madeline's thoughts.She looked back and saw Mrs. Jones rushing to her in a hurry.She thought that Mrs. Jones would vent her anger on her and continue to curse as well as berate her, but she did not expect that the moment Mrs. Jones ran up to her, she had a pleading look on her face. “Eveline, please go in and save Rye! I’m begging you!”Mrs. Jones cried and pleaded, tears
The doctor said that all the necessary measures to treat Ryan had been done, but his will to survive was too weak.Most people would be seeking survival, but he seemed to be seeking death.However, it seemed that the only thing he could not let go of was her as he kept calling out her name."Perhaps you’re the only regret that he can't let go of in his heart,” the nurse from just now said.After listening quietly, Madeline walked to the bedside.Ryan's face was as pale as snow while his breathing was weak. Various tubes were inserted into his body to maintain his dying body.The beeping sounds from the electrocardiogram sounded as if they would stop at any time.Madeline approached him, and as soon as she walked to the bed, she heard Ryan calling out, “Eveline.”Sure enough, he could not let go of her.“Ryan,” Madeline called out to him. “I'm Eveline. I'm here.”“Eveline…” Ryan continued to call out Madeline's name unconsciously.Madeline frowned slightly. “Ryan, I'm standin
Mrs. Jones was emotional. She stretched out her hand to try to pull Madeline again, but this time, Jeremy did not give Mrs. Jones the chance to touch Madeline.He pulled Madeline into his arms and faced Mrs. Jones with an icy expression.“Why? Are you trying to abandon your benefactor upon achieving your goal? Talk properly,” he said coldly.Mrs. Jones was a little afraid of Jeremy and did not dare to talk. However, she began to question Madeline again after seeing the emergency in the ICU.“Eveline, you were in there for so long. What did you say to Rye? Did you deliberately say something that Rye didn't want to hear to stimulate him and is that why he’s getting worse now? Otherwise, why are the doctors giving first aid to Rye so hurriedly?”“Eveline, I didn't expect you to be so insidious!” Mr. Jones also followed suit and criticized.Jeremy loved his wife ardently, so how could he allow Mr. and Mrs. Jones to attack Madeline like this?However, when he was about to speak, Made
Jeremy did not want Madeline to stay in an environment like this. Plus, he was extremely enraged by Mr. and Mrs. Jones’ attitudes.When Mrs. Jones saw that Madeline and Jeremy were leaving, she looked over coldly and yelled out to Madeline while refusing to accept what had just happened, “Eveline, don’t think that I’ll thank you after Rye wakes up!”Jeremy stopped in his tracks. He was obviously unhappy, but Madeline stopped him.“Jeremy, it’s unnecessary.”Madeline was calm. She turned her face slightly, and her beautiful eyes glanced over Mr. and Mrs. Jones nonchalantly.“Do you think I’m expecting your gratitude? I was just doing something I wanted to do.”After she said that, she grabbed Jeremy’s arm and looked at the man whose eyes were filled with indignation. Then, she smiled at him.Jeremy’s eyes softened. He did not want to bicker with Mr. and Mrs. Jones anymore. As such, he held Madeline’s hand and left the hospital.However, judging from Madeline’s attitude just now,
What did she tell him?Madeline recalled what happened in the ICU just now.Madeline showed a rare mischievous smile after spotting the curiosity in Jeremy’s charming eyes.“Jeremy, are you dying to know what I said to Ryan?”Jeremy nodded and sounded like he was jealous when he spoke next, “I want to know how my wife encouraged that man who brought trouble to himself.”Madeline could sense the jealousy in Jeremy’s tone. She curled the corners of her lips and smiled. Then, she said seriously, “That night at the firework viewing platform, Ryan told me something before he got shot and collapsed.“He told me he was sorry.”After Jeremy heard this, he could slowly guess what Madeline said to Ryan in the ICU.“That day, he kidnapped me in the bookstore. He told me that he’d take me to you, so that’s why I went with him. Back then, I was seriously muddle-headed and I believed everything he said like an idiot. Then, he said as long as I promised his final request, he’d take me back to
However, after Felipe knew the truth about his parents’ death, he vanished.Before Felipe left Whitman Manor, Madeline had asked him what he wanted to do. However, he only told Madeline one sentence. He said he was going to repent for his sins and said that Cathy would know what he was going to do.However, Cathy was dead.Madeline and him were unable to guess Cathy’s thoughts and feelings.On the way home, Madeline sat in the car as her thoughts started to wander. “Cathy was such a great girl.”Jeremy held Madeline’s hand. “Don’t think about the sad things.”Madeline sighed in remorse. “It would be great if Cathy could be as lucky as I was back then. I know Felipe regretted this and he was upset to only realize the person he loved was Cathy when it was too late and Cathy had already...”“Linnie.”“Yeah.” Madeline knew Jeremy was concerned about her. “I’m fine. I just feel pity when I think about Cathy. If she’s still alive, she would be so happy…”After she sighed, the car st
“I don’t think you’re seeing things.” Jeremy gave an affirmative answer. His gaze once again fell on the back of the man not far away.This figure used to be so familiar to him, so he would not see it wrongly.However...Jeremy took Madeline's hand and walked in. Old Master Whitman suddenly got up from the other side of the sofa. He looked at Jeremy and said with surprise, “Jeremy, look who’s back!”After the old master said that, the man who was sitting with his back to them slowly stood up, tall and straight.Then, he turned around. His once gentlemanly and elegant face looked more mature and calmer now.He and Madeline looked at each other. Then, he smiled slightly before turning his gaze to Jeremy's body.Seeing Jeremy's short, flax-colored hair and his pupils that were close to the color of amber, the man seemed surprised.“I knew you wouldn't die a long time ago. It’s just that I haven't seen you for so long and you even changed your image.” Felipe's tone was very calm an
“Jeremy, do you want to know where Ryan’s secret base in F Country is?”Jeremy lifted his deep eyes. “Do you know where it is?”Felipe nodded firmly. “I do.”Jeremy was surprised. He briefed Madeline before going to Interpol’s branch in Glendale with Felipe.Felipe provided the related address and information. Then, the people who were in charge quickly contacted the colleague over at F Country. Indeed, they instantly found the place where Ryan hid his illegal goods in F Country.Felipe’s clue played an exceptionally important role in this case.After they left the branch, Jeremy and Felipe walked on the streets. It was at the end of summer.The two of them did not have the barrier and rivalry they had before. Now, they could have a peaceful and friendly exchange.“How did you know about Ryan’s business? Also, how did you know where he hid the goods used for trading?” Jeremy asked Felipe the questions he had in his heart.After Felipe heard that, his thin and narrow eyes looke
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
