Madeline could not hear what Carter was saying to Jeremy, but she noticed the visible changes in Jeremy’s eyes. Even his expression became colder and darker instantly.She was suspicious and curious, but she did not have any intention to probe.When Carter saw the changes in Jeremy’s expression, he curled the corners of his lips and walked back to Madeline’s side in satisfaction.“Eveline, let’s go.”Madeline looked at Jeremy who was standing motionless while looking at her without speaking. She smiled at Carter and nodded. “Okay, let’s go.”Initially, Madeline was not curious, but when she remembered how Jeremy was so insistent on keeping her here and how he was watching her leave without any reaction now, she was feeling very conflicted.She thought about it before finally asking, “Cart, what did you say to Jeremy just now? Why does he look like he’s stunned? Why isn’t he speaking or reacting?”A hint of joy flashed across the corners of Carter’s eyes without a trace, but he d
Adam’s expression changed again. “Cathy knows hypnotism?” He never knew Cathy had this skill.“Adam, where’s Cathy now?” Jeremy asked anxiously.After he said that, Jeremy saw a hint of desolation in Adam’s eyes. After a few seconds, Adam spoke, “I think she went to see him.”Him.Jeremy understood immediately.The ‘him’ he mentioned was Felipe.Custodial ward.Cathy was standing at the door of the room that Felipe was locked in. She did not go in even after a very long time.Through the small window, she could see Felipe sitting on the bed. He had a notebook under his left arm and was holding a pen with his right hand. He was writing something on the pages of the book.He had been writing the entire time she stood outside the door.As she recalled what had happened back then, Cathy only felt that it was extremely ironic that she was standing here.However, why did she still have the impulse to be a mere joke in her heart?He was so cruel but she was still reluctant to let
“Jeremy, it’s you again! What else do you want?” Madeline was still fighting back with all she had.Jeremy pressed down on Madeline’s shoulder. His deep and narrow eyes were looking straight into her beautiful eyes that were filled with repulsion.“Linnie, please believe me no matter what. I’ll never hurt you.”“You won’t?” Madeline chuckled coldly and asked. “It seems that you’ve forgotten how you treated me back then, but I never will!” After Madeline said that, Jeremy felt as if his heart had been split apart by a sharp knife.What terrified Jeremy was when Madeline was saying this, her eyes were filled with intense hatred.The level of hatred was as if it was just yesterday when he hurt her and caused her to bleed and cry.This was not normal at all.Jeremy was even more certain that Madeline was hypnotized.If not, if Madeline was normal, she would never say something like that. She would never treat him with this attitude.“Linnie, I know you won’t listen to me no matter
“I’ll never obey you.” Madeline resisted.However, after she finished saying those resisting words, Adam walked out of the house.When he saw Madeline and Jeremy, he was surprised. However, what shocked him even more was that Jeremy had bound Madeline’s hands together with a tie.He did not expect that Jeremy would do this.He looked at Madeline. He could not find the previous gentle and friendly smile on her fair and stunning face. Now, there was only coldness.“Are they here?” Cathy walked out as well.When Madeline heard Cathy’s voice, she lifted her eyes to look at her. “Evie.” Cathy smiled and greeted Madeline.Madeline furrowed her gorgeous eyebrows. Then, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes. “Are you… Cathy?”“Linnie, do you know Cathy?” Jeremy was surprised.Madeline ignored Jeremy and took a step closer to Cathy. “Are you Cathy?”“Yes, I am.” Cathy nodded. When she saw Madeline’s tied-up hands, she walked over to undo the tie.Cathy looked into Madeline’s e
Adam did not know who Carter was, and he had never seen him before.However, judging from the animosity coming from Jeremy, he could probably guess what was going on.“Sir, who are you? Why did you come into my house uninvited?” Adam asked politely.Carter slowly tidied his delicate sleeves before curling the corners of his lips. He said in an elegant and gentlemanly way, “I’m sorry, I’m here to take my wife home. Not long ago, she just went into your house. Now, she’s with a woman named Cathy.”After hearing what Carter said, Adam’s expression changed subtly. On the other hand, there were already cold tides in Jeremy’s eyes.“Carter, do you have a tracking device on Linnie? If not, how do you know exactly where Linnie is and what she’s doing now?”Carter calmly lifted his eyes and looked into Jeremy’s eyes. There was still an ominous smile on his face.“Because there are people like you who’d kidnap my wife for no good reason. I had no choice, so that’s why I did that. I’m only
Jeremy was holding Carter’s arm tightly.He looked at Madeline who was sleeping quietly on the reclining chair before shifting his gaze to Cathy.Cathy stood up slowly and looked into Jeremy’s eyes helplessly.She shook her head lightly. The helplessness in her eyes caused Jeremy to feel disappointed and vexed.Could she not break it?Would Madeline be forever brainwashed and controlled by Carter?Carter was pleased with Cathy’s change in expression.He smiled. “Jeremy, there’s no use stopping me unless you want the woman you love the most to be asleep forever like this.”After Carter said that, he looked at Jeremy’s hand that was holding onto his arm.“I’m the only one who can break the hypnosis, and I’m the only one who can restore her, do you understand?”After he said that, Jeremy’s long eyebrows furrowed together.He had to let go of his hand that was holding onto Carter’s arms tightly.Carter smiled victoriously and walked to Madeline’s side.Cathy walked to the side
“It’s him!”Cathy walked to the window. The sky was dark outside the window. She could not see Carter’s face clearly, but she could vaguely see his features.“Cathy, do you know Carter Gray?” Jeremy walked over and asked curiously.“Carter Gray?” Cathy repeated this name. There was a hint of anxiety and uneasiness on her face. “It’s him indeed.”“Do you really know him?”“I do, but I don’t know if he knows me or not,” Cathy explained. She remembered the time she learned hypnotism when she was overseas. “The year I was learning hypnotism in St. Piaf, Carter would show up every week to teach our class.”When Jeremy heard this, he was surprised.Cathy looked at the car that was driving away outside the window and turned around to go back to the room.“Back then, we would address Carter as Professor Gray out of respect. He was very popular in St. Piaf Academy. Not only he was handsome, brimming with talent, great in hypnotism and psychology, but he also had an amazing family backgr
Actually, he had known the entire time. The man who was living in the deepest part of Cathy’s heart was Felipe.Even though he had hurt her badly and heartlessly aimed the gun at her heart.True love was always an absurd thing.It would not mind the losses or gains, and it would not mind whether one got any response.“Since you’ve decided not to turn back and the end of his life might already be here, then you should let him leave while knowing the truth.” Jeremy walked over to Cathy. “You should bid farewell to him officially. The least you can do is let him know the existence of the children.”After Jeremy said that, he turned around and left.Cathy stood absent-mindedly where she was. She lifted her head to look at the cold night sky outside the window. The sky was as dark as ink, and in that instant, it drowned her heartbeat.…After Carter brought Madeline back to the manor, he quickly hypnotized her again.After sleeping for an entire night, what Carter said to her durin
