“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
“Gosh! There’s even something like this?”Sounds of exclamation and shock came continuously from the crowd.“I never knew there’s such plastic surgery!”“They look the same!”“There’s even no difference in their eyes!”When everyone at the scene saw Madeline walking over, they were all flabbergasted.When Naomi heard the exclaims from the crowd, she could feel her breathing getting erratic. She turned around to look in disbelief. When that familiar face was reflected in her eyes, Naomi felt as if her heart had stopped beating at that moment.‘How is this possible?‘How is this even possible?‘Eveline isn’t dead!’However, Naomi had clearly pushed her into the river.When that happened, Eveline was still unconscious. How could she still be alive?Plus, what was up with her face?She had been so hideous after the fire. Her face had been covered with scars but now, it was so delicate and flawless. Plus, she even looked fair and elegant.Compared to her face that was covered
After everyone heard Naomi saying that, they thought she made sense.That voice was not Eveline’s voice indeed.After carefully hearing it, they found that Naomi’s voice was more similar to the one they had heard before.When she noticed the people around her starting to side with her, Naomi started to feel pleased with herself. She pointed at Madeline and lifted her eyes. “You imposter, you’re in this state and you still want to impersonate me. You’re only here to make a fool of yourself!”Madeline had an unperturbed attitude the entire time while facing Naomi’s provocations. “We’ll know who’s the one here to make a fool of themselves soon.”“...”Naomi started to feel anxious after seeing Madeline’s calmness.She was wondering how could Madeline prove herself to be Eveline when she spotted Madeline walking next to a female reporter. “Do you have any perfume with you?”The reporter looked at Madeline and was stumped for words while feeling confused. Then, she took out a mini b
Naomi stared straight at the documents Ken had placed in Madeline’s hand. Even though she had no idea what they were, she could feel that they were evidence extremely detrimental to her.Madeline opened the documents calmly and displayed the contents in front of Naomi as well as all of the cameras.“Naomi, this is the information about your plastic surgery in Y Country. Plus, the documented pictures on here clearly state that you’re an imposter from head to toe.”“...” Naomi widened her eyes, and at that moment, she was completely speechless.“Wow…” Everyone at the scene gasped in surprise.They now understood why Eveline had been so unrestrained and shameless these few days. They also understood why she could have the guts to say something so shameless in public. It turned out that this woman was not Eveline at all!The reason she said and did those things was to slander the real Eveline.“What a lunatic. She can even go as far as to use this kind of method to smear someone’s n
Naomi shrieked, and her statement caused an uproar in the crowd.However, Madeline was not affected at all. She did not believe her. She did not even want to pay attention to what Naomi had said.She knew clearly in her heart that Naomi was doing this to disgust her on purpose.She would not go and cause trouble for herself.Plus, she knew this was impossible because…“Eveline, you must be extremely devastated right now, right? Haha! I didn’t lose! I didn’t!” Naomi started cackling sinisterly as if she was possessed.After she exposed this, the reporters all shifted their gazes to her flat stomach at the same time.‘Is this imposter pregnant with Jeremy’s child?‘If it’s true, then wouldn’t there be a hurdle between Jeremy and Eveline?’Everyone’s faces were painted with curiosity. On the other hand, Naomi felt extremely pleased while looking at Madeline’s silent expression.“Eveline, so what if I got plastic surgery to look like you? So what if you’ve exposed me in public? I
Jeremy spotted Carter as well. Immediately, the information he found out about Carter a few days ago flashed in his mind.Madeline was sure Carter had seen what happened just now at the press conference, however, she was not sure what was the reason for him to show up all of a sudden like this.‘Is he here to target Jeremy?’Madeline pondered silently, and in the next second, Carter had already walked up to her.He looked at Jeremy and then his gaze landed softly on Madeline’s face.“I’m here to take you home.”Carter’s words were brief and to the point, plus his tone sounded so calm. However, to Jeremy, Carter’s words were laced with intense provocation.Home.His Linnie only had one home.Madeline could sense Jeremy’s displeasure. She knew the reporters were about to come out at any second now and since she did not want to cause more gossip and misunderstanding, she politely smiled and said.“Mr. Carter, let me introduce you to my husband, Jeremy Whitman. Thank you for savi
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
