Madeline did not forget the time she had previously stumbled upon Jeremy buying a large bouquet of red roses. She had thought that he was seeing other women apart from Meredith.After tailing him, however, she found that he had gone to the cemetery with that bouquet of roses.It was inconvenient for her to continue following him at the time, so she did not know the reason why Jeremy brought roses to the cemetery. She could not find out even though she had tried researching it.She also did not pass by here coincidentally today. Instead, she had always been observing his every move in secret.After discovering that he had gone to the flower shop again, she then deliberately showed up to make it seem that it was a coincidental encounter.As she was in the midst of her thoughts, Jeremy opened the car door for her.Madeline quickly came back to her senses and got out of the car.She pretended to appear curious by looking around. It was then she saw Jeremy already holding the bouquet
It turned out that Meredith was not Jeremy's favorite.It turned out that his favorite was already dead..."What are you looking for? Do you want me to help you look for it?" Madeline opened her mouth and said calmly. She saw Jeremy's movements pausing momentarily as if he had only just realized the existence of another living person here.He stood up slowly, his good-looking appearance covered with indescribable grief and sadness along with a trace of fear while his eyes were filled with a fierce, terrifying light and murderous intent. He looked as if he was afraid that he might not be able to recover something again.Madeline became even more confused and she asked again while she walked toward him, "Are you alright? What’s going on here?""I'll send you home first." He finally spoke, and there was no warmth nor emotions that could be sensed from his tone, only the horrifying chill that radiated from him.Madeline was sent back to the apartment. In the past, Jeremy would usually wait
As soon as Meredith said what she said, she felt a chilling, violent wave envelop her entire body in an instant.She felt cold and could not help but shiver.While she was still thinking about what Jeremy would do to her, she suddenly felt a tight grip around her neck. In the next second, she lost the ability to breathe freely."Je... Jeremy..."Meredith widened her eyes in shock, looking at the man who was choking her neck in disbelief.How could it be?How could he treat her this way?He was actually strangling her for that b*tch Madeline!"Do you know what you’ve done? Do you think that you can just do whatever you want because of my liking and my spoiling you?" His cold voice swept toward her like a cold wind, his gaze full of murderous intentions.Meredith felt that she was about to be strangled to death. She was feeling highly discomforted as she could not breathe.However, no matter what she said, Jeremy would not let go. Instead, he even tightened his fingers one by one.His ey
“Go on.”“Fulfill your promise to me back then. Take me as your wife,” Meredith continued without hesitating.In an instant, a deep frown was plastered across Jeremy’s face. He looked at Meredith with his eyes that were filled with emotions.“Jeremy, you know that I love you. I’m crazily in love with you. I can’t live without you. I knew I wanted to stay with you forever after I saw you for the first time.”Meredith looked at Jeremy sentimentally.“Jeremy, you’re the only hope for me to continue living. If I don’t have you, I’d rather die. If you don’t want to fulfill your promise, then I’ll leave this world along with Jack. If you die, you’ll never find Madeline’s ashes.”Looking at Meredith’s determined gaze, Jeremy chuckled lowly. “Are you threatening me?”Meredith shook her head and looked at him aggrievedly. “How would I dare to threaten you? I just want to be with the man I love. So, I’m willingly turning into the kind of evil woman who would do anything to get their way i
After Madeline pushed the door open, she could smell the stench of alcohol.It had been three years. She never thought that she would come back to this place. What shocked her even more was when she pushed the door open, the decorations and renovation were still the same as back then.Everything in front of her eyes was the same as three years ago. There were not many changes.Madeline walked forward slowly with puzzlement. The apartment was not big, so when she walked in, she spotted Jeremy right away.He was leaning against the sofa while sitting on the floor. His eyes were closed, making him look lazy and carefree.The collar of his white shirt was opened and his collarbone was showing.His cheeks were red while his pale lips were wet. It seemed as if he had just drunk some wine. On the coffee table in front of him were two bottles of opened wine.Madeline looked curiously at the man who appeared drunk.‘Jeremy, what the hell are you doing?‘Are you here to drink your sorro
She walked over to take a look and saw that it was her diary. The page where it was on was filled with her past love and determination for him.Madeline scoffed when she recalled herself back in the days. She was so stupid and dumb.She grabbed the diary before turning around to leave. However, Jeremy pulled her back again.Madeline stumbled and fell on the floor, crashing into Jeremy’s firm chest.His eyes were dazed, but he was still looking at her emotionally.“Don’t go, okay? Don’t leave me again.”“Jeremy, let me go. I’m not the person you’re thinking of.” Madeline struggled to escape, but Jeremy simply smiled and stared straight at her. He was hugging her even tighter now.Madeline could not escape from his grip no matter how much she struggled.He was pressed up against her lovingly before eventually falling asleep.Madeline was sweating from all her struggling. However, she still did not manage to escape from him. In the end, she also closed her eyes and fell asleep in
“What?”“What did you say?”Eloise and Jeremy’s mother stood up immediately, their faces filled with shock.“Vera Quinn, repeat what you said!” Jeremy’s mother yelled.Madeline scanned Meredith’s face and saw that her eyes were widened while her jaw was hanging loosely from shock. Then, she lifted her head to look into Jeremy’s unreadable black eyes.“Jeremy, I’m carrying your child.”She smiled and handed him a report.“I went for some tests this morning at the hospital and this is the proof from the doctor.”Jeremy looked at Madeline and took the report.It was stated on the report that she was already three weeks pregnant.“Let me see!” Jeremy’s mother snatched the report from Jeremy’s hand and looked at it closely.Eloise came over to look at it as well. After they saw the result, their faces darkened instantly.When Meredith saw this, she stared at Madeline with envy and jealousy. After a few seconds, she bit her lip. Her eyes looked hurt and they were filled with deva
He lifted his head and saw that Madeline had already hailed a cab. Then, she got into the car and left.Jeremy was dispirited for a few seconds before he chased after her.He called Madeline, and though the call went through, she did not answer.Madeline looked at the darkened phone screen and smirked.She was making concessions in order to gain advantages.She did not mean it when she wished him that. She could not let the two people she hated the most live carefreely.Jeremy could not contact Madeline, so he became anxious.It did not matter what the reason was, but he knew he could not lose the woman who had the same face as Madeline.Even though he was obstinately clinging to the belief that this was the reason he could not let go of Madeline, he also realized the subtle change in his heartbeat whenever he was with Vera.The feeling was the same as when he met Madeline for the first time in university.Madeline went back to her apartment, and after a while, someone was ri
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
