Madeline had been taking care of Eloise for two days, and following the doctor's instructions, they brought Eloise back home to take care of her.There was no major problem with Eloise's body, except that she was just feeling weak and did not have the strength to talk. Coupled with her mental state that was not stable, it really made Madeline worried.Jeremy witnessed everything, and the sight made him not want to let Madeline know about his condition.Even though there were times he was feeling frustrated, it all poofed into thin air when he saw those three cute and active kids.The little princess who could only smile but not talk was the exception as she made Jeremy feel remorseful.At this moment, with the slant of the sun during the afternoon of late autumn, Jeremy was heading to the office. Meanwhile, Madeline was accompanying Eloise sunbathing in the courtyard.The two little kids, Jackson and Lillian, were up to something while Pudding, who was still learning to walk, was
Madeline never really thought that in this world, such a face existed.However, judging from the fact that the lady was able to be so calm and approached Madeline first, Madeline knew it was no mere coincidence but a plan plotted by someone else.The lady noticed that Madeline was glancing at her with a critical gaze. That intrigued her interest as she curled the corners of her mouth."Eveline, are you surprised to see this face of mine? Or perhaps, you're pleasantly surprised? That in this world, there's someone who has the exact same face as you?"Madeline calmly stared at the perfect face before her that was similar to hers and put on a smile. "Thanks for letting me know that I'm pretty but sorry, I won't believe that in this world, there’ll be anyone with the exact same face as mine. You deliberately came forth to me and that just shows that you have hidden intentions."She smiled, her eyes glittering clearly."I’m guessing you must be someone I used to know. Why? Do you plan
However, with each step she took, she felt her vision spinning even harder. She saw that there was a sink ahead. She thought of drenching herself with some water to make herself awake. Nevertheless, before reaching the sink, all her strength was drained from her body.Suddenly, Madeline just dropped to the ground. "Jeremy…"She muttered as her eyelids drooped down heavily. In the end, she just saw that face that looked similar to hers, revealing an evil smile…As soon as Jeremy was done with work, he immediately headed back to Whitman Manor. Once he entered the house, he saw the three kids gathering together and playing around. Karen was accompanying Eloise by her side and was looking for topics to talk to her about from time to time.Even though Eloise seemed like she did not understand, at least the atmosphere was not as depressing.However, what bothered him most was that he did not see Madeline around.Jeremy placed the dessert that he just bought in front of the three kids.
Jeremy raised his eyes and looked over. His deep peach blossom eyes reflected the image of that bright smile and the little face that looked as pretty as an artwork."Didn't you say that there's a lot of stuff at work waiting for you to settle and you'll be back home late? Why are you home already?" Madeline held the shopping bag that was filled with food. She changed her shoes and walked to him. "If I knew you'd be back early, I wouldn’t have gone to the mall. I might as well have asked you to go fetch the items for me."Jeremy saw the lady before him slowly approaching him and was absent-minded for a moment before putting on a gentle smile."You could always send the servants out to buy these things. You're the madam of the Whitman family. You don't have to personally do all this trivial stuff.""How could I? I want to personally put in the effort for the kids," said Madeline as she smiled and looked at Eloise and Karen. "Mom, I'll be heading to the kitchen. In a while, everyone
Her pretty eyes were teary and reddened, brewing with anxiety. "Jeremy, will you blame me?""How would I blame you, silly?" Jeremy comforted her, but looking at the tears that were about to spill out from those big eyes before him did not make him feel heartbroken.Previously, he would feel uncomfortable even if Madeline frowned.However, he did not feel any change in emotions even when Madeline was on the verge of crying now.Jeremy felt troubled, but without thinking further, he continued comforting her gently. "Don't be so upset, it's just a ring. Later, I'll buy you another one. Right now, let's bake a cake together."Madeline suddenly smiled. "You really treat me the best, Jeremy.""You're my wife. If I don't treat you well, who am I going to treat well?" Jeremy smiled. Just when he was about to bake the cake with Madeline, his phone rang. "Linnie, I'll go answer this call first.""Alright." Madeline nodded and stared at Jeremy's back. Gradually, there was a victorious sm
Astonished, Madeline looked at the man who was walking to her. A gleam of confusion was seen in her clear eyes. "How is this possible? Where is this place? How did you—""How did I manage to show up before you as I please?" the man asked with a slight smile as he sauntered to Madeline. "In this world, there's a gray area. Even though money can't do everything and it can't buy true love, but it's more than enough to purchase freedom.""..."Madeline suddenly had a terrible headache when she heard his comment. "Ryan, the lady who looks the same as me, is that your doing? Why did you do that?"Ryan placed one of his hands into his pocket with a carefree gesture."Eveline, you should know that changing one’s appearance to look exactly like yours isn’t a one or two days’ work.”"So, you're saying you had it all planned much earlier?""That day when I brought you over to Y Country, I had already planned to do this, but later I was arrested and admitted my defeat. I didn't plan to use
Ryan walked to Madeline. The halo of the sunset silently shone on his face, but his expression was obscure and uncertain."Eveline, I won't hurt you again, but I won't let you return to Jeremy's side.”Madeline heard his comment and calmly let out a smile. "Back then, you said to me that you'll never let me and Jeremy reunite, but things have proven themselves and I reunited with him. So what if you're trapping me here now? Soon, I'll be back by his side. And if you think that the lady you hired will be able to attain what she wants to achieve, then you can just forget about it!”She spat out those decisive and confident comments, then elegantly spun around to leave.Ryan was unhappy and frowned. Slowly, he clenched his hand that was hiding in his pocket into a fist.Looking at the vast sea made Ryan feel he was getting more narrow-minded.…Whitman Manor.After night arrived, the family had their dinner happily.The woman impersonating Madeline put on a fake smile on her face
It should be a voice that he liked and could make him touched, but somehow, Jeremy could not feel anything at that moment.Jeremy got up, sensing the silhouette that was slowly approaching him. He raised his eyes and saw her in a sleeping gown that he had never seen before. The sleeping gown was very thin and very sexy.Jeremy initially thought he would experience a surge of uncontrollable emotions within him, yet he evaded his gaze, finding it frustrating.He had no thoughts of being gentle with Madeline, let alone having thoughts of being intimate with her."Linnie, you go ahead and sleep first. I still have some work to do," Jeremy said and walked to the study desk.The lady was dumbfounded. She soon snapped out of it and saw the outline of Jeremy’s icy-cold back. Feeling curious, she lowered her head and glanced at her outfit.She even purposely looked at her left breast. She had put a mole there that was exactly like the one Madeline had.From her face till every part of he
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
