“Mrs. Whitman, help me!”The person asked Madeline for help. She looked terrified and panicked, and she also looked battered and exhausted.“What happened? I thought you had returned to St. Piaf. Why are you still in Glendale?” Madeline asked patiently.When Hannah was about to answer, there was a sound of overlapping footsteps outside the parking lot, accompanied by the voices of several women talking.“I saw her running in here just now.”“Let's go in and take a look!”“I’ll teach her a painful lesson later!”“Mrs. Whitman, help me!” Hannah quickly asked for help again.Madeline glanced at the source of the sound and then unlocked the car.“Get in the car first.”“Thank you!” Hannah thanked and hurriedly got into the passenger seat.After that, Madeline got into the car and stepped on the accelerator.As she turned the steering wheel, she caught a glimpse of a few young and fashionable girls walking quickly into the parking lot.Hannah, who was sitting in the passenger s
The restaurant staff was busy with their own work, and the customers dining did not care who entered the restaurant.However, Hannah, who seemed very nervous and flustered, remained by Madeline's side. Even when she was eating, she kept her head low and did not utter a word. She only focused on eating.After eating, Madeline asked Hannah to follow her to Whitman Corporation.Madeline asked the head of the clothing department to bring two sets of samples to let Hannah change into. After changing into those clothes, Hannah shrank into the corner of the sofa with a look of alertness and fear.The sight of Hannah’s behavior made Madeline feel that something is strange.In fact, before the clarification, Madeline had expected that the netizens would scold Hannah, but she had not expected that netizens to be so outraged.Madeline did not want to see Hannah being driven to insanity too.Jeremy had just finished lunch by himself when he heard that Madeline was here, so he went to Madeli
Madeline saw that Jeremy still had doubts about Hannah, so that was why he asked her out here to speak to her alone.Sure enough, as soon as they arrived at the next office, Jeremy urged Madeline solemnly.“Linnie, I still find it a bit weird, so you better not get too close to her. In a while, I’ll call Ken to arrange the flight and send her back to St. Piaf.”Madeline nodded silently. “I also think that sending her back is the best arrangement. Even if her friends were boycotting her, I don't think her parents would leave her to fend for herself.”“We don’t need to worry about whether her parents would care for her or not. Linnie, she first came to the company to make trouble. She slandered your reputation and innocence, so she should bear the consequences now that the situation has escalated to this level after the clarification.”“Yeah, Jeremy, you’re right,” Madeline agreed. She then smiled in relief and took Jeremy's hand. “Then, I’ll do this according to your wish, honey.”
Before Madeline and Jeremy approached the crowd, they heard the young men and women swearing at Hannah.Hannah looked like she was in a panic. She did not dare to say anything.When she saw Madeline and Jeremy coming toward her, her eyes suddenly lit up as if she had just seen her savior. Then, she rushed straight toward them.“Mr. Whitman, Mrs. Whitman, help me!” Hannah ran over to ask for help.The servant at the door immediately stopped Hannah.“Madam, this is a private residence. Please leave immediately, all of you.”Hannah was stopped, so she pointed anxiously at Madeline and Jeremy.“I know Mr. and Mrs. Whitman. Please let me in, or they’ll kill me!”She yelled anxiously.With a suspicious look, the servant glanced at Madeline and Jeremy who were walking over.Jeremy nodded lightly, and the servant did not stop Hannah anymore.Hannah ran up to Madeline in a panic as she pleaded sincerely, “Mrs. Whitman, help me. These people want to take photos of me and they said the
Seeing this, Madeline quickly squatted. “Hannah, Hannah.”She called out twice but Hannah did not respond.“Jeremy, she seems to have passed out.”Jeremy's deep gaze stayed on Hannah's face for two seconds. Then, he reached out and helped Madeline up.“I'll call for an ambulance now, Linnie. Don't touch her.”“What’s going on? Who is this? Why is she unconscious?” Karen held her little grandson and walked up suspiciously.Hannah looked very battered right now, so Karen did not recognize that this was the woman who had made a fuss in Whitman Corporation’s lobby before this. When she saw that Hannah was on the ground, she summoned the servants out of sympathy.“It's not appropriate to lie on the ground in this cold weather. Help her up first and let her lie down for a while on the sofa.”The servants understood what Karen was asking them to do and worked together to lift Hannah.“Who were those people? Were they just a bunch of hooligans?” Karen asked.Madeline shook her head.
Madeline decided to take a look at how Hannah was doing, and Jeremy naturally followed her.Hannah was sitting on the sofa now and she looked very confused.As soon as she saw Madeline, she suddenly got up and ran over. She then grabbed Madeline's arm in shock and hugged her tightly.“Sis, where is this? Why am I here?”Sis?The way Hannah addressed Madeline surprised her.Hannah grabbed Madeline's arm even tighter.“Sis, I'm so scared. So many people want to scold me and beat me. I'm really scared…”Hannah's expression seemed to become more panicked as she tightly held Madeline’s arm, refusing to let go.Madeline looked at Jeremy suspiciously and then at Hannah.“Hannah, look closely. I’m not your sister.”When Hannah heard this, she suddenly raised her head and stared at Madeline's face seriously for a while.“Why would you not be my sister? We grew up together. I know. It must be because Mom and Dad have always loved me more since we were children and neglected you, so n
After Jeremy finished saying that, he walked straight to the toilet.Madeline was curious too. Even she thought that Hannah’s mood had changed too suddenly.However, her expressions looked so genuine earlier.Since she was worried something bad might happen, Madeline walked over hurriedly.Jeremy walked to the door of the toilet and was about to open the door. However, he could not turn the knob. Obviously, Hannah had locked the door from inside.If that was the case, they could not go in even with a key.Jeremy did not have much patience dealing with women other than Madeline.He directly ordered in a cold voice, “Open the door.”Jeremy’s tone was extremely cold. He was also not discussing with Hannah; he was ordering her.However, Hannah did not respond to him.Jeremy raised his hand to knock on the door hard. “Open the door. If you don’t want to cause a commotion, open the door right now.”Jeremy ordered again. Then, a small voice came from inside.A few seconds later, M
“There are so many weird people in this world. How could she come to our house to kill herself? Was she trying to frame Eveline and Jeremy?”Eloise sighed after she heard that from the side. “Sigh, my Eveline is so unfortunate. Trouble hasn’t stopped even after so long.”When Madeline heard Eloise’s words that were filled with worry, she smiled and walked over.“Mom, don’t worry about me. I’m fine now.”Eloise lifted her eyes to look over. “Eveline, you’re back! What’s the situation now? Is that woman’s life in danger?”Madeline shook her head. “The doctor called Jeremy on our way back. They said she’s not in any danger.”“That’s good.” Eloise and Karen let out sighs of relief.Even though Hannah did a lot of things that annoyed them, her life was important too. They did not wish for something bad to happen to her.Karen asked the servants to clean the toilet and asked them to watch the door so that outsiders would not come in again.After the kerfuffle with Hannah, Madeline f
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
