With questions tailing her, Madeline had to stop. Nevertheless, she merely smiled calmly and magnanimously and then spoke to the camera.“In recent years, you’ve seen a lot of melodrama and even unbelievable news about me and my husband, but what happened in the end?”Madeline asked with a small smile.“It should be very clear to all of you, isn’t it?”The reporters looked at each other tactfully, and one of them asked, “Mrs. Whitman, are you saying that the woman deliberately came here to cause trouble and discredit Mr. Whitman and that in fact, nothing happened between Mr. Whitman and her?”Upon hearing this reporter's words, Madeline was slightly startled for two seconds.She was not good at lying, and the memory of what happened between Jeremy and the maid was indeed playing in her head.“Mrs. Whitman, why are you not answering?”“Could it be true that the woman actually slit her wrist to commit suicide? It didn’t seem like acting. Who would risk their life to put up an act
Madeline thanked the doctor and then walked to the hospital room.However, before she got there, Madeline saw, from a distance, that there were a lot of reporters by the room’s entrance.Madeline understood that these people were here for more information.They wanted to know something more exciting from Hannah's end. They were also hoping to prove what Hannah said was true so that their write-ups would be very valuable.Without thinking about it too much, Madeline grabbed her phone and turned around to dial a number.“Hello, I am a family member of patient 1201. I don't know why it is so noisy outside of the adjacent room. It’s so noisy that my relative can’t even rest. Please ask someone to deal with it as soon as possible.”Soon after receiving Madeline's complaint, the hospital called the security guard to drive the reporters away.A few minutes later, the entrance to the room was instantly quieter.Presently, Madeline walked over to the door to the room. Through the small
Suddenly, the malevolent-looking Hannah lost control of her emotions and pounced toward Madeline. It seemed as if she had decided to die with Madeline.Madeline did not have time to care about the wound on the back of her hand at the present. She moved to one side quickly and avoided Hannah’s attack.“Hannah, think about your family before you do anything stupid.”Madeline exhorted her. The cut flesh on the back of her hand was bleeding more and more.She needed to do something to her wound right now.Madeline knew her blood type was rare; it would be troublesome if she lost too much blood.However, when Hannah heard what Madeline said, she started cackling loudly. “Family? If I had a family, would I go and become a lowly maid?”Hannah roared out at Madeline. It was clear that she despised her background.The hand she used to hold the knife was shaking as she aimed it at Madeline, and Hannah’s eyes were filled with hatred.“Eveline, why is your life so good? You’re the daughte
Madeline nodded. From the corner of her eyes, she looked at the baffled Hannah before following Jeremy to the door. “Mr. Whitman!” Hannah yelled at Jeremy’s back. “Mr. Whitman! I came all the way from St. Piaf for you. Please don’t ignore me so heartlessly! Mr. Whitman!”Hannah’s ear-piercing voice came over repeatedly. Jeremy turned a deaf ear. He only wanted to take Madeline to tend to her wounds as soon as possible. However, at this moment, the reporters who had been chased away came back out of nowhere. They swarmed forward to interview Jeremy. They wanted to know more about his relationship with Hannah, but before they could get close, they were frightened back by Jeremy’s austere eyes. In Glendale, Jeremy was someone they dared not offend. Jeremy quickly brought Madeline to the outpatient services where a doctor quickly tended to the wounds on their hands. The sight of the gauze on their hands broke Madeline’s heart, but at the same time, she did not know if she
Upon hearing Jeremy suddenly speaking as such, Hannah, who was very emotional to begin with, was taken aback.However, Jeremy's gaze, ablazed, was not something that someone could approach and fool at will.“This was initially a private matter between you and me. You can even ask me for compensation, but you’ve used the wrong approach.”Jeremy's voice and eyes grew colder and colder.“You made a fuss in my company downstairs and threatened my wife with death. You even played the victim by making a ridiculous accusation that my wife would hire someone to bully you and the child in your womb. Heh.”Jeremy grinned coldly. “Child?”Hannah heard Jeremy's sarcastic words and felt the doubts of the people around her. Although she was feeling slightly guilty, Hannah, with red eyes, quickly recomposed her pitiful state and explained, “I’m just telling the facts…”“Facts?” Jeremy interrupted Hannah indifferently. “Let me tell you what the facts are.”Jeremy's deep and alluring eyes darke
Hannah bit her lip and stared in the direction in which Jeremy and Madeline had left; her eyes were red and unwilling.She knew that she had made a mistake; she had not investigated some things clearly before making things up.She also knew that no one believed what she said, but she did have a relationship with Jeremy!She would never forget what happened in the Royal Palace of St. Piaf that day for the rest of her life!Jeremy brought Madeline back to the car. Once the car had gotten onto the road, the air about them fell into a moment of silence.Jeremy's leg was injured, so Madeline was driving the car. After a long moment of heavy silence, Jeremy opened his mouth and spoke.“Did you know that it was dangerous? If she could make a fuss at the entrance of the company with no regard for her own reputation, you should know that she’s not a good person. How can you take the risk to see her alone?"Jeremy's words sounded like a reproach, but in fact, he was more concerned and wor
Shirley roared out at Carter, condemnation in her tone and gaze.Carter looked at Shirley in this state, and then he picked up the phone unhurriedly.In fact, he had seen the news a long time ago, so how could he not know this?Looking at the message on the screen, a slight smirk gradually appeared on Carter's gloomy face.Upon noticing the smirk on Carter's face, a sudden burst of intense pain surged in Shirley’s heart.She really did not want Carter to be like this at all.Shirley's eyes turned red against her volition.“Answer me, Carter.”Carter looked away and tossed the phone onto the bed.“Yes, I did it,” he admitted without taking it seriously. Nonetheless, the expression on his face suggested intense emotions. “I initially had everything under control, but you and Eveline taught me a lesson.”Carter said in a leisurely tone, walked over to the bed, and sat down slowly. He picked up the tableware and prepared to feed Shirley.“I thought I had lost horribly, but I did
He fed Shirley another bite and leisurely continued speaking.“When the hallucinogen started to affect Jeremy's consciousness, I had someone take him to the room in which the maid was already waiting. Just like Jeremy, she was also exposed to the hallucinogen without her realizing.”After hearing this, everything became clear to Shirley.“You confused them both, making them think that they had intimate contact with each other."Shirley concluded with certainty, and her eyes were looking at Carter with more disappointment.“Carter, you’re irredeemable.”Carter paused as he was scooping the food. “I’m irredeemable?”He chuckled lightly. “You’re the one who’s crazy.”“I’m crazy?”"If you weren't crazy, why would you help Jeremy? If you weren't crazy, why would you help Eveline? Have you really forgotten how our child died?”Carter's expression suddenly darkened.“Don't tell me that since you’re the one who developed the test reagent, you only have yourself to blame. It was Jere
