After Sean mentioned this, a trace of gladness flashed across Jeremy's heavy eyes.The important memories that he had lost because of the special cigarette Lana made for him at that time were very clear in his mind at this time.“I didn’t set the fire at that time.”Jeremy finally had the opportunity to tell the truth. Sean and Madeline looked back at him at the same time.Sean frowned. “You told me this before. Although you lost your memory and were used by Lana at that time, the fire—”"Lana asked someone to set the fire in advance. Then, she called me to come here as a scapegoat. Her purpose was to make Eveline think that I set the fire so that the relationship between the two of us would break apart.”Jeremy's answer shocked Sean and Madeline.Of course, they did not question what Jeremy was saying currently because Lana was indeed capable of doing such a thing.“Jeremy, why did you never tell me about this?” Madeline looked at the man while feeling pity for him. Suddenly,
She was squatting there and it was unknown what she had found. She was looking at it emotionally while holding it in her hands.“I found it! Sean, come look! It’s Eveline!”Eloise turned back to call out to Sean. She was jumping up and down while waving a blackened family photo in her hand.Sean walked hurriedly to Eloise and helped her up from the ground.“Ellie, get up.”“Sean, look. It’s our Eveline.” Eloise pointed at the figure on the almost completely blurry photo. “Eveline is here.”Madeline’s eyes welled with tears when she saw what was happening in front of her.She walked to Eloise and grabbed her hand lightly. “Mom, Eveline is here.”Eloise looked at Madeline like she understood her but not really. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. “Oh? This Eveline looks almost the same as my Eveline.”“...”Eloise was saying that in all seriousness. That statement hurt Madeline’s heart so much.She was the daughter who Eloise was yearning for every day, but she was treating her as some
Madeline strode toward the stairs that suddenly collapsed.Sean was on the phone when he heard Madeline's heart-wrenching screams. His expression changed drastically before rushing in.Madeline panicked and ran to the place where Jeremy had fallen. When she saw the man lying motionless on the ground, she felt as if something had pierced through her heart.“Jeremy!”With a pale face, Madeline ran to Jeremy's side and knelt before him. She took his face and cradled it in her arms.“Jeremy, wake up, Jeremy! Don't scare me!” Madeline's eyes looked lost while her hands trembled violently.She brushed away the dust on Jeremy's face. With trembling fingers, she stroked his beautiful eyebrows. Then, tears quietly escaped from her eyes.“Jeremy, don't scare me. Please don't scare me. I really don't have the ability to bear the possibility of losing you.“Jeremy, I’m truly exhausted from this journey. For the rest of my life, I just want you to cherish me and take care of me. Don't make
After receiving an affirmative answer from the doctor, the weight on Madeline's heart was slowly lifted off.However, even though Jeremy was fine, Eloise was still missing.“Eveline, take care of Jeremy. I’ll find your mother.” Sean patted Madeline on the shoulder before turning around.When Madeline watched Sean’s back as he hurried away, Madeline could understand how her father was feeling at the moment.Eloise was the love of Sean’s life just like how she loved Jeremy. If something happened to the person she loved the most, the anxiety in her heart would be indescribable.Jeremy was transferred to the general ward where Madeline stayed beside his bed.She looked at the sunshine on his handsome and resolute face. His eyebrows and eyes looked so gentle.Madeline held Jeremy's hand, clasped his fingers, and kissed the back of his hand after lowering her head. “Jeremy, I knew you took the risk for me because you were concerned about my safety. Thank you.”“We’re husband and wife
Felipe seemed to have fallen into a beautiful dream, but he knew that she was really in front of him.His eyes were red, and the woman’s face was blurred gradually in his teary eyes. Even so, he could hear the irregular rhythm of his heartbeat clearly.“Cathy…” Felipe called out softly. His voice was trembling very much and even his hands were trembling.He slowly raised his arm to try to touch the sweet and beautiful face in front of him, but before he could touch her, she suddenly avoided him.The woman glanced at Felipe who was stuck in a trance with tears in his eyes with a look of surprise on her face. Then, she quickly walked over to pick up the little boy named Juan.“Juan, do you know this uncle?” the woman asked, but her question caused Felipe's hand to stiffen in the air.His heart that was beating with joy and delight seemed to freeze over. Then, he felt endless coldness overpower his breathing and heart.“Uncle, car, danger,” the little boy said childishly, then he l
“No, you’re not Cathy.” Felipe could not be more certain as he stared at the woman’s features. The woman exhaled with an exasperated smile and was about to say something when a man’s gentle voice called out to her. “Amy.” The woman broke into a smile at the voice and turned to look in the direction it came from while she held the little boy in her arms.“Dad’s here, Juan. Let’s go home.”“Okay.” The little boy nodded obediently and greeted lovingly in the direction of the man who was a slight distance away, “Daddy.” Felipe felt his chest chill as he turned to look at where the other man was. Entering his line of vision was a rather familiar face. While he had not been in any direct contact with Adam, Felipe knew that it was the other with one glance.Adam seemed shocked to see Felipe as well. The man pondered outwardly for a moment before he strode over to Felipe.“Felipe Whitman, Jeremy’s uncle?” Adam asked.Felipe glanced at Adam before his gaze fell back on the woman wh
Madeline heard Jeremy calling her name but was too stunned by the sight her eyes caught.“Jeremy…”“Linnie.” Jeremy lifted the blankets and got down the bed.Watching the man running toward her worriedly, Madeline quickly went to help the man.“What’s wrong, Linnie?” Jeremy ignored his condition. All his eyes saw was Madeline.Just as he spoke, a face he had never expected appeared in his line of vision.“Cathy?!” Jeremy was astonished.Madeline nodded excitedly as well. “It’s Cathy! It really is Cathy!”The woman wondered even more just how alike she was with this Cathy when she saw Madeline and Jeremy’s reactions.She was about to explain herself but Adam was a step faster. “You’re mistaken. This is Amy Young, my fiancée. I understand that she looks a lot like this Cathy you speak of, but she isn’t Cathy.”Madeline and Jeremy’s excitement slowly returned to normal.“Hello. I’m Amy Young, Adam’s fiancée. I must really look like this Cathy you speak of, but I’m not her. Plea
He fully understood how Felipe felt. Whether she was or was not Cathy, her existence was still a ray of hope to Felipe.Madeline signed Jeremy’s discharge papers, and as they were on the way home, Madeline gave Sean a call. She asked if Eloise had been found yet, but Sean said no.Eloise going missing had fueled Madeline’s unease.Jeremy understood how Madeline felt. “Don’t blame yourself, Linnie. This isn’t your fault. Life is full of surprises and unexpected incidents, so we can’t prevent everything. Mom could be on the way home for all we know.”Madeline smiled softly, knowing that Jeremy was only trying to console and comfort her.“You’re right, Jeremy. It’s also impossible for us to know if the unexpected would be something good or bad. Like Cathy.” She looked up to meet the man’s gaze. “Do you remember how you asked Cathy to return to Glendale and asked Adam for pain medication when we were in F Country back then?” “Yeah.” Jeremy nodded. “That’s what I was wondering about
