After the master of the ceremony finished saying that, Meredith blushed. She looked at Jeremy longingly.‘Jeremy, hurry up and say you do!‘I’ve been waiting so long for this day!’Meredith’s heart raced. She felt as if she was going to get to the pinnacle of her life.Also, she noticed that Jeremy was smiling at her warmly. There was a softness in his eyes that she had never seen before.Meredith was sure that she had this in the bag!However, at this moment, someone’s phone started ringing.It broke the atmosphere, making Meredith unhappy. However, she noticed it was Jeremy’s phone.Jeremy suppressed what he was feeling before and took out his phone.When he saw the caller ID, he lifted his head to look at Madeline who was sitting in the last row.“Jeremy, my stomach is hurting all of a sudden. I don’t know if something’s wrong with our baby. I don’t think I can continue watching this. I have to go to the hospital.”Madeline’s voice sounded very despondent from the other e
Looking at those beautiful and lively eyes in front of him, Jeremy’s thoughts started to wander.He never wanted to say ‘I do’ anyway.When the master of the ceremony asked him that, he recalled the time he married Madeline. That was why he had smiled and also why his gaze became softer.When Madeline saw Jeremy deep in thought, she called out to him, “Jeremy, what are you thinking about?”After she said that, Jeremy’s phone rang.“I need to take care of some things. I’ll be back soon.” Jeremy said after looking at the caller ID.“Go ahead.”Jeremy nodded, and when he was about to close the door behind him, he lifted his gaze to look at the woman who was leaning against the headboard of the bed. There was a thought-provoking look in his eyes.Madeline got out of bed when she heard the engine of the car.She did not expect Jeremy to bring her back to his place.However, she was glad. Jeremy abandoned Meredith and carried her away with so much concern. This was better than she
Meredith could not accept this ending. She refused to believe this as well.No, Jeremy had to be retreating for the sake of advancing!‘Jeremy must be pretending to not care so that I’ll stop using Madeline’s ashes as a bargaining chip.’When Meredith thought about this, she found that it made sense.However, when she came back to her senses, Jeremy had already driven away.Meredith was unconvinced. She had gotten so close to becoming Mrs. Whitman, but she was still disqualified. She would not let this go no matter what!She clenched her fists angrily. “Vera Quinn, you b*tch! Just you wait!”Eloise came out of the house just in time because she was worried about her daughter.However, she did not expect to see Meredith clenching her fists and saying those heinous words.Eloise’s worried heart fell.This was the first time she saw such a sinister expression on Meredith’s face. In her mind, Meredith was soft and gentle. Other than that, she was loving and sensible. How could sh
She could not reciprocate Felipe’s feelings even though he was such a nice gentleman. After seeking her revenge, the only thing she could give him was mutual respect and a promise to accompany him.The next morning, Felipe received a phone call and went out.After Madeline bathed Lillian, the doorbell rang.To her surprise, she saw Jeremy standing at the door looking travel-worn when she opened the door.When he saw the look of surprise on her face, Jeremy walked in front of her. His eyes were solemn when he suddenly reached out his hand to pull her into his arms.Madeline was shocked. “Jeremy?”“I miss you so much.”He answered her and held her even tighter. It was as if she would disappear from his world forever if he let go.He would not allow her to disappear.There was a sarcastic smile on Madeline’s face. ‘Jeremy, we literally have the same face. Back then, you would look at it in disdain, but now, you’re missing it so much?‘Hmph.‘How preposterous.‘How would I fo
Upon taking a closer look, it was indeed Rose.She was puzzled. This was a tattoo shop, so what were Rose and Mer doing here?Was Mer here for a tattoo?Was it because she was so in love with Jeremy that she wanted to tattoo his name on her body?After contemplating, she was about to walk in.However, when she stepped forward, she heard Rose talking happily to someone on the phone. “Don’t worry, I’ve asked someone to ask about this a long time ago. The owner of this tattoo shop is very skilled, so the Montgomeries will definitely not notice. Plus, Mer is just doing a touch-up. Nothing will go wrong.”When Eloise heard this, she stopped in her tracks.‘The Montgomeries won’t notice?‘What can’t the Montgomeries see?’Eloise’s heart was racing. She was feeling frenetic.Half an hour later, Meredith and Rose walked out.Eloise was hiding at one side. When she saw Meredith, she only saw that she was in high spirits. There was no trace of sadness on her face.She watched in disb
After Meredith said that, Eloise did not stop her.Meredith brought her luggage to Jeremy’s place. She did not have the keys, so the maid opened the door for her.The maid had heard about Meredith and Jeremy’s wedding. When she saw Meredith, she called out flatteringly, “Madam, you’re back.”Meredith was delighted when she heard that.Even though their wedding was ruined, she still got her status.Who in Glendale did not know that Meredith Crawford was Jeremy’s wife?Meredith sauntered upstairs. When she wanted to go into Jeremy’s room, she realized that it was locked.At this moment, noises were coming from downstairs. “Sir, you’re back. Madam has just come back as well.”“Madam?” Jeremy frowned while looking at the smiling woman next to him.The maid felt awkward when she looked at Madeline who was holding Jeremy’s arm.“You should go get the groceries.” Jeremy dispatched her to do something.“Alright, Sir,” the maid answered before leaving.The huge house plummeted into
Meredith widened her eyes as she looked at the woman in front of her while at a loss. She was beyond shocked when she saw the piercing and proud gaze staring back at her.“You… Vera, what do you mean? What does my past have to do with you?”“Does it not?” Madeline put her face closer to hers. “Look at my face. Without going against your conscience, can you say that what you’ve done in the past has nothing to do with me?”“...”Meredith’s heart was racing.The face in front of Meredith reminded her of Madeline, the woman she had forced to her death.Her eyes widened, and she was petrified.“Y-You… Madeline…”Madeline smirked when she saw Meredith’s horrified expression.“Why? Do you finally remember what you did? Do you remember how you shamelessly stuck your foot into Madeline and Jeremy’s marriage? Do you remember how you harmed Madeline with all your ruses and caused her to carry all those burdens even until the day she died?”Madeline’s spirited eyes were filled with icy r
Back then, she was the one playing this kind of role to get Jeremy’s trust and pity, but now…Meredith watched as Jeremy pulled Vera into his arms comfortingly. His tone was filled with an intense desire to protect her.“No one will be able to touch a single hair of yours as long as I’m here!”“Jeremy, she’s just pretending! That woman is just acting!” Meredith exclaimed angrily.“I’m happy to watch even if she’s just acting.”“...”Jeremy’s answer froze Meredith. At the same time, it stunned Madeline. However, it made Madeline smirk in secret.‘Meredith, you’re finally getting what you deserve.’“Jeremy, we’ve been together for so many years and you don’t even trust me! You’d even go as far as to trust this witch! I’m so heartbroken. Boo-hoo…”Meredith covered her face and sobbed. Suddenly, she ran upstairs and into the guestroom.Actually, what she was doing right now was running away from Jeremy’s accusations.If Jeremy asked her about the child he had with Madeline back
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
