Jeremy felt a dull ache in his heart instantly. His eyes were so wide that they looked like they were going to fall from his sockets. “What do you mean by you tried your best?” he questioned. Those were the words no family member would want to hear.The doctor looked at him and sighed. “It’s a miracle that the patient was able to live until this day. My condolences.”He would not accept this result no matter what.He wanted Madeline to be alive.He wanted her to be alive so that she would be able to hear him tell her the truth.“I took a look at this patient three years ago. Back then, she was pregnant and I asked her to abort the child. However, she insisted on giving birth to the child. I think that child was more important to her than her own life. Now that she’s gone, the child would be able to live for her. I think that’s some kind of consolation.” A female doctor chimed in at one side. After Jeremy heard that, he almost could not breathe.That child.He had crushed that ch
Jeremy yelled tyrannically, causing Meredith to quickly turn around and run out in fear.No one dared to go into the room anymore. At the same time, no one understood why Jeremy was acting like this.Everyone in Glendale knew that Jeremy loved Meredith, but now, he was reluctant to let go of his dead ex-wife’s body. What was going on?Daniel knew about Madeline’s death from Adam. He ran over the moment he heard the news but was stopped outside the operating theatre.He fought with Jeremy’s bodyguards for a while. Then, the door opened and Jeremy walked out.When he saw Jeremy, Daniel escaped from the bodyguards and ran toward the man.“Jeremy, you murderer! You killed Maddie!” he yelled as he was about to punch Jeremy.Jeremy grabbed Daniel’s hand indifferently, lifting his head to look at him with red eyes. “I said, no one’s allowed to come and disturb my wife. Scram!”“Your wife?” Daniel was amused. “Jeremy, just ask yourself, when have you ever treated Maddie like she was yo
The four words he said sounded light. It was as if he had used up all the energy in his body.“Jeremy, I won’t give you Maddie anymore! Meeting you was the most unfortunate thing that ever happened to Maddie. Will you only be satisfied after you crush her bones into dust?”When he listened to Ava’s accusations, Jeremy felt his temples throbbing furiously. He reached out his hand, his tone sounding firm. “Give her to me!”“No! I’d rather die than give Maddie to you!”When Jeremy saw that Ava was refusing to hand Madeline’s ashes to him, he felt like he was going to explode.He reached out to snatch it from her, and of course, he got it.He carried Madeline’s ashes and ran to the car. He heard Ava’s curses behind him, so he quickly stepped on the accelerator. Then, he left the scene like a thief.Ever since he was young, Jeremy would get everything he wanted. No one had ever gone against him except for Madeline. However, he lost his reputation and image just to snatch over a dead
She had been thinking about marrying Jeremy every day so that she could become the real Mrs. Whitman. However, it had been three years and their relationship did not change at all.It had been three years and she could not wait anymore.…It was a bright and sunny summer afternoon. An adorable little girl was holding the skirt of a young woman in Glendale Airport.“Mommy, Mommy, I’m hungry.”The woman turned her head when she heard that. Her long wavy hair fluttered as she turned around. A benevolent smile was displayed on her stunning face. She picked up the adorable little girl who looked like an elf. “I’ll bring you to eat something yummy soon.”She started walking after picking up the girl. An elegant and poised aura started following her like it was her shadow.On the way, she attracted a lot of praise and glances for her beauty and figure.After they found a place to stay, she took the little girl out.“Mommy, I want a burger first.”“Alright.” The woman agreed.“Thank
Madeline made a shushing gesture and the little girl immediately understood. She pursed her lips together.On one side, Meredith was extremely unhappy when she saw Jeremy holding a little girl. However, she knew she could not show it.“Jeremy, whose child is this? Why do you keep holding her? Jack is waiting for us outside. Let’s go.”She looked at Jeremy with a smile on her face, but then she rolled her eyes at Lilian who was in Jeremy’s arms.She did not know where this little thing came from. She even looked similar to that country bumpkin, Madeline!“You can leave with Jack first. I’m waiting for the little girl’s parents,” Jeremy replied coldly. Just then, his eyes fell on Lilian.For some reason, he felt a connection to her.Meredith finally got to ask Jeremy out using Jackson as an excuse. She did not think she would be treated so coldly. She could not express her anger, so she could only turn around while pressing her lips together tightly.Meredith was so focused on be
She had already left this world. What was left of her were her ashes.“Of course I’m Jeremy’s wife. The entire Glendale knows about this!” Meredith could not wait to announce her relationship with Jeremy.Madeline said after suddenly realizing it. “So you’re that famous Miss Montgomery, Meredith Crawford?”When Meredith heard this, the arrogant smile on her face returned.However, after a few seconds, Madeline added, “The woman who used her identity to force her sister, Madeline, to a dead-end before stealing her sister’s husband! You’re that mistress, Meredith Crawford, right?”Meredith’s face fell, but she displayed an innocent look on her face.“Miss, how can you spew nonsense like that? When did I steal my sister’s husband from her? Jeremy and I have always been together, right, Jeremy? The person you love this whole time has been me and me only,” she said, looking at Jeremy with an agreeable look.However, Jeremy was only looking at Madeline. His gaze was so intense that it
At this moment inside Whitman Manor.Jeremy sat next to the bed lazily. He was holding his phone while watching a video that was going viral.In the video, Meredith’s menacing behavior made her lose her good reputation. All of a sudden, he was starting to wonder if this was the little girl he met when he was younger, Linnie.He did not think much of it, but his eyes eventually landed on Madeline.His heart started beating faster.Those features looked just like hers.However, despite looking similar, it was still a fact that Madeline had left him forever.As Jeremy pondered, Madeline’s sweet face appeared in his mind. His heart started aching uncontrollably again…Maddie…“Jeremy, are you asleep?” Someone knocked on the door, and in the next moment, Meredith’s voice came from outside. “Jeremy, I think you saw the video, right? I’m being maliciously slandered. Can you accompany and comfort me?”“Plus, the shop at the plaza in the city center is going to be up for auction soon.
On the other side, Madeline took a sip of her coffee slowly. She looked at the huge sum of money that was transferred to her bank account on her phone. She lifted the mirror and looked at her reflection.She touched the place where the scars used to be. However, she would still feel a stinging pain even though she had only touched them lightly.She put down the mirror and turned her elegant body. Then, she walked into the fashion boutique next door.All of the rich and powerful upper-class elites in Glendale were coming to the auction that was being held in the most luxurious six-star hotel here.They were going to auction off a huge shop in the busiest part of the plaza in the city center.Meredith had been eyeing this shop for a very long time. She also hinted to Jeremy many times before for him to bid on this shop for her.Back then, she had stolen Madeline’s diary and the jewelry design drafts she left behind when she was in university. Even she needed to admit that Madeline’
