When Naomi heard this, her hand that was holding the doorknob froze.She widened her eyes and stared at the closed door in disbelief.Karen had deliberately brought her to this room?Karen had seen through her?Impossible!Karen was so stupid! She had kept defending her back then! How would she be so smart to have seen through her this time?“Mom, what are you talking about? I’m Eveline.” Naomi purposely softened her tone to try to play the character of Eveline.However, Karen’s cold chuckle instantly came from the other side of the door. “Stop pretending. Do you think I’ll still be so stupid and can’t tell that you’re an imposter?”“...”Naomi’s face fell instantly. She did not expect that they had seen through her.She lifted her foot and kicked the door heavily in anger. “Open the door! If not, I’ll smash everything in your room!”After Karen heard this, she was completely sure that this was not Eveline!Karen was furious when she thought about how this imposter had stay
The servants were confused.Meanwhile, Naomi was happy with their reactions. She ran quickly toward the foyer as if the bottom of her feet were covered in oil. She did not care how heavy the rain was as she ran straight into the rain and toward the front gates.However, before she could run far, she felt something hitting against her ankle. She squatted down reflexively in pain before falling on the wet floor.When she was about to get up to continue running, Jeremy’s imposing figure was already standing and towering in front of her.Naomi’s heart skipped a beat in fear. When her eyes met Jeremy’s bottomless and deep ones, she was extremely flustered.“Good job, Jack.” Karen’s praises for Jackson sounded from afar.Naomi looked at the toy boomerang by her foot and realized that Jackson was the one who threw this thing at her ankle, causing her to fall.She gritted her teeth in anger. When she turned around to get up, Jeremy suddenly bent down and grabbed her collar.Naomi’s bre
“What?”Karen turned pale from fright as she rushed in front of Naomi to grab her collar.“What did you say? Say it again! What did you do to Eveline?” Karen asked hurriedly.Naomi lifted her head to look at Jeremy whose expression had changed drastically. Then, the smile on her face became more and more intense.So what if they had seen through her?So what if she had lost?She already won the moment she pushed Madeline into the river!“Jeremy, you must be feeling frantic and upset right now, right?” Naomi smiled and asked. “It’s been two hours, so it’s impossible for the woman you love to still be alive. When I pushed her into the river, she was unconscious.”“Did you really push Eveline into the river?” Karen roared. “How can you be so evil?”Karen lifted her hand furiously to slap Naomi heavily across the face.Naomi yelped in pain and turned her head to look maliciously at Karen’s face.“Heh, you’re slapping me? Even if you beat me to death, Eveline will never come back
He fantasized about Madeline coming back to shore. After all, it had been two hours, so if she was still in the river, then she would have been…No.Jeremy interrupted his overthinking. However, when he looked at the endless river connected to the sea, he did not know what he was supposed to do.He stood in the middle of the rain in midwinter and looked at the river in front of him while calling out Madeline’s name in his heart.Karen was waiting for news at home. The thing she longed for the most right now was Jeremy coming home with Madeline, but it was starting to get dark and Jeremy was still not home yet.Karen kept waiting, and unbeknownst to her, it was the next day.When she was about to go look for Jeremy to ask about Madeline’s situation, she received a strange call.She was worried that she would miss any news about Madeline, so she picked up the phone. However, the person on the other side said that they were a reporter.Karen was not in the mood to talk to the repo
For a moment, she was stumped for words. She looked at the handsome face with outstanding features in front of her in confusion.“Who are you? Why are you standing in front of my door?” Naomi asked.When Carter heard this, a stern glint flashed across his eyes. He parted his lips lazily.“You’re the young madam of the Whitman family and you’re staying in a hotel. I guess your relationship with Mr. Whitman is in shambles indeed.”When Naomi heard this, a disdainful scoff appeared on her face.“Yeah, my relationship with my husband is in shambles. We’re almost at the stage of divorce because I’m not a woman who knows my place and I’m not the good wife or mother the public thought I was. I’m just a fickle wh*re.”Carter peered at Naomi coldly. “What you said is so surprising, Mrs. Whitman. I’ve never seen a woman describing herself this way.”“Oh yeah? You’ve seen it now, no?” Naomi snorted nonchalantly. Then, she continued to slander while wearing Madeline’s face. “I’m an extremel
“I’m going to ask you now, what’s your name?”“Naomi Lionel.”Naomi answered without being able to control herself. She wanted to say that she was Eveline Montgomery, but the truth came out of her mouth instead.Carter seemed to be satisfied when he got this answer. He asked again, “Why do you look like Eveline?” “I got plastic surgery.”“Why did you want to look like Eveline?”“The man I liked arranged this for me. I don’t know why he wanted me to look like her. I was just carrying out his orders.”“Who’s your boyfriend?”“His name is Ryan Jones.”Ryan Jones.Carter quickly remembered the man who died in the yacht explosion.His eyes landed on Naomi’s face that was a copy. Her eyes were out of focus right now, and it was evident she had fallen into his hypnosis.He had tried to hypnotize Madeline before as well but did not succeed.Madeline’s willpower was strong, unlike the woman in front of him who was easily hypnotized by him.After pondering for a few seconds, Carte
Jeremy was wearing a neat and ironed limited edition suit. He was sitting in front elegantly with a dignified posture. When he saw Naomi appearing in front of him, he smiled lightly without a trace.Naomi lifted her eyebrow at Jeremy while feeling pleased with her position. She said to the reporters in front of her, “Since everyone is present today, I want to announce something too.”Announce something?Everyone looked at each other before pointing the cameras and microphones over to Naomi.“Mrs. Whitman, are there problems with your relationship with Mr. Whitman?”“You’ve been seen entering all kinds of bars and clubs with different men. Are you admitting to this?”“Will you divorce Mr. Whitman soon?”Naomi glanced arrogantly at Jeremy who did not say anything while facing the reporters’ continuous questions. She started seriously spewing nonsense to the live stream, “It’s true that I was seen hanging out with a lot of men recently.”“Wow…”They did not expect ‘Eveline’ to ad
However, what surprised them was how Jeremy never denied or said anything to stop her from the start.Did this mean that he was agreeing to this tacitly?One of the reporters could not take it anymore, so she asked Jeremy, “Mr. Whitman, are you not going to stop or explain why Mrs. Whitman is acting like this?”After the reporter asked that question, Naomi did not give Jeremy a chance to talk. She immediately answered, “Don’t cause trouble for my husband. I’ve already said this, so what else can he do? I can’t help that I’ve affected the stocks of Whitman Corporation and Montgomery Enterprise. I can’t help it that I’m someone like this.”While she was speaking, she looked at Jeremy provokingly.“Am I right, dear?”Jeremy looked calmly at the beautiful face and finally said, “Do you think you’re qualified to call me your dear?”“...” Naomi was slightly stunned. However, she reacted quickly. “You’re right. We’re going to get divorced soon. How can such a shameless wh*re like me be
