Author: Sixteenth Child
Madeline pursed her lips and smiled before suddenly frowning.

“What about the man who kidnapped Mom?”

“He has been brought in by the police and is now in the detention ward. He confessed to everything.”

“What did he say?” Madeline pressed further.

Jeremy stroked Madeline’s tired cheeks while parting his lips to reply. "He said he saw Mom by the road near the ruins of Montgomery Manor. He recognized her from her looks, so he conned Mom to follow him to where he lived. Then, he called us and asked for ransom.”

When he said that, Jeremy felt slightly regretful.

“I made the wrong decision to let you go in alone. I was fully capable of subduing that b*stard by myself, yet I ended up putting you in that kind of danger.”

Jeremy cupped Madeline’s face, his narrow and deep eyes overflowing with remorse. “I was so scared that you’d get hurt again, Linnie.”

Madeline looked up to stare at the man’s enchanting peach blossom eyes, feeling incomparably adored.

She leaned into his embrace wit

    Madeline gripped the steering wheel as she watched the familiar face a small distance away pass by… Honk, honk, honk!The sound of cars honking and urging her sounded from behind, causing Madeline to snap back to her senses. When she looked up again, the face she had just seen was nowhere to be found.‘Did I imagine it?’Madeline’s mind fell into a short daze, but she did not think too much into it and stepped on the accelerator.Upon meeting up with Jeremy, Madeline came to know that the man had booked flight tickets for their relaxing holiday trip and they were leaving tomorrow. As she understood Jeremy’s intention, Madeline did not reject the idea.In retrospect, she and Jeremy had never gone on a decent honeymoon with how they kept separating and getting back together all these years.After deciding on the itinerary, both Madeline and Jeremy went to visit Eloise at the hospital.They were leaving tomorrow and Madeline was most worried about her mother.“Go and relax wit

    Just then, the door of the ward suddenly opened and a prison guard walked in. "Someone’s here to see you, Ryan.”Ryan slowly opened his starry gray eyes at the sound of the guard’s voice.He had not expected anyone to come and visit as who else but his parents would come?‘Who else, if not my parents?’ he thought to himself, but a face he had never expected surprised him by suddenly appearing before his eyes.He never thought he could see her again.He also thought that the meeting that day would be their last.Ryan was about to speak when he heard the woman in front of him sneering. It was a sound that turned all of Ryan’s pleasant surprise and hopes into dust."As the one who arranged my future, Rye, did it not occur to you that your future would end up like this?”The woman curled her lips slightly and a scornful smirk appeared on her picturesque, small face."I’m so upset, Rye. Why did you become like this? What’s the point of me being like this if you’re going to stay in

    “Stop looking at those men.” The man’s seductive baritone voice drifted clearly into her ears.Sensing his jealousy, Madeline raised her hand to push Jeremy’s palm away from her eyes. She turned around and met the man’s narrow and charming gaze with mirthful eyes.“Why can’t I look? Eyes are meant to admire the beauties of the world,” Madeline replied innocently before she turned back to continue admiring the beautiful view of the beach. Jeremy walked up to Madeline domineeringly and pushed his handsome face in front of Madeline’s eyes, blocking her sight as her gaze wandered around the beach.“I’ll get jealous if you keep looking, Linnie,” he stressed seriously.Madeline tugged the corners of her pink lips prettily into a rare mischievous smile. “Perfect. I’d like to see what my husband looks like when he’s jealous.” “I think it’s best you don’t.” Jeremy’s expression grew heavy as a cold look that deterred challengers took over his face, though his gaze then turned gentle agai

    “Sorry.” Madeline apologized before quickly bending down to pick up the hat and handed it back to her.The moment she looked up, Madeline realized that the woman was wearing a large pair of sunglasses that covered more than half her face.Despite that, Madeline could not help but be stunned as she took in the woman’s features.“It’s alright.” The woman took the hat back and smiled, then turning to walk to the beach.Madeline glanced at the woman’s back mindfully and fell silent for a few dazed moments.“What are you looking at, Linnie?” Jeremy wrapped an arm around Madeline’s shoulder. “Let’s go back to the hotel.”“Did you see that woman's face, Jeremy?” Madeline followed Jeremy but turned back to take another glance.It may have been a coincidence, but the woman turned around to look at Madeline as well with an intrigued smile on her face.“I have no interest in looking at any other woman who isn’t you, Linnie,” Jeremy replied curtly. Madeline felt like she had been fed a s

    As much as Jeremy's confession was expected, it was still surprisingly sweet when it got to her ears.Madeline pursed her lips and smiled, meeting the man's deepening gaze. "Me too. I've wanted to be with you forever since the day I met you. To the end of the world, wherever you go, I'll come with you."Hearing this, Jeremy's eyes were soft as the look in them grew more tender. "I'm sorry you had to wait so long for this day, Linnie.""If the wait leads me to you, then it’ll be worth it."With Madeline's words, Jeremy placed an unrestrained kiss on her lips, pouring in all the emotions he had suppressed in his heart."Linnie, how about we have another baby?""Can you even afford to raise so many kids, Mr. Whitman?" "What do you say?" the man asked with a low chuckle but then made a serious promise. "I don't want you to suffer anymore, Linnie. I’m very content with Jack, Lillian, and Pudding. Though most importantly, I have you."The man said tenderly, and Madeline's reply fe

    “How dare your adopted daughter accuse my son of being unworthy when he tried to pursue her back then, Mrs. Montgomery? Your daughter played my son and look where that got her? She’s dead now!”The woman crossed her arms and smirked in schadenfreude.“Mrs. Montgomery, you took a heinous and vile woman as your own daughter and in return caused your darling daughter to go through so many sufferings. Wouldn’t you call this retribution?”“Exactly! It’s probably because of how unlucky the daughter she gave birth to was that she almost tore the Whitman family apart, or so I heard. When the Montgomery family recognized her, their house got burned down. Her mom gets left paralyzed and becomes stupid. What a misfortune! Haha...”“You’re right! Haha…”The two women started sneering incessantly.Seeing this, Karen immediately grabbed an apple from the fruit plate and threw it at them forcefully. The two women stopped laughing abruptly and dodged in fright. In the end, both their foreheads

    Hearing Karen’s reply, Madeline made a confused sound of disbelief.Jeremy’s narrow and charming eyes snapped open and his gaze fell on Madeline’s serious small face.Madeline locked gazes with Jeremy as she continued to listen to Karen speak over the phone. Soon after, Madeline hung up the phone. Jeremy pulled her into his arms and asked caringly, “Did something happen to Mom?”Madeline shook her head. “She’s fine. It’s just…”“Just what?” Jeremy stared into Madeline’s glistening eyes. Madeline took Jeremy’s phone and tapped into Twitter where she found today’s number one trend. She felt conflicted. “Look, Jeremy.” She handed the phone to him and her frustration deepened. Jeremy glanced at the content and a cold look flashed in his deep eyes.The contents of the letter Old Master Jones wrote to Old Master Whitman were trending! The lead was from an insider who knew of the truth behind the grievances between the Whitman and the Jones family 15 years ago. “I remember

    “I’ve already told someone to delete as much as they can and try to out-trend it with something else. I’ve done all I can, so let’s just leave the Jones family to worry about the rest,” Jeremy replied frankly and tried to console Madeline.“We aren’t guilty of anything, Linnie. We can’t change how others want to think either. All we can do is our own part.” With that, Madeline’s emotions calmed greatly. He was right. The Whitman family had done most of what they could. Jeremy even went the extra mile to help as well. They had done enough.“I brought you here so you could be happy and relax, Linnie. Stop worrying about those kinds of things already, hmm?” Jeremy scratched the tip of her delicate nose gently. Madeline wrapped her arms around the man’s arm as a sweet smile that showed her dimples graced her lips. She asked coquettishly, “Well then, husband of mine, where are you bringing me today?” Jeremy raised his sharp brows and quirked his seductive thin lips as he replied

    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
