The sound in his ears put a sudden stop to Jeremy's search. He felt a touch of surprise as he gently lifted his eyes that could no longer capture any light and color. "It's you? When did you return to Glendale?""Yesterday." There was suddenly light in Jeremy's bleak eyes after he received that answer. He slowly stood up, facing the man before him. "Is Linnie back with you too?" Felipe looked at Jeremy who was blind, then looked down at the wedding ring he had just picked up. He played with it with his fingertips with interest, only to lift his lips. "Yes, Eveline came back with me too." As he spoke, Felipe saw the joy in Jeremy's eyes. He smiled, saying, "Eveline and I are here to bring Jack back to F Country this time." His answer had very simply and decisively shattered the shade of joy on Jeremy's face. "Eveline doesn't want to see you again, so you'd better not appear in front of her, especially with the way you are now.""With the way I am now?" Jeremy laughed lowly.
"Mom, can I really see Brother Jack later?" Lillian's tender voice was like the clear spring in a mountain stream—it was extremely sweet. Madeline's eyes curved as she smiled. "Why would I lie to you? You’ll get to see Brother Jack in a while." "Great, I want to give my favorite lollipop to Brother Jack." Lily happily patted her cute little hand. The sound of clapping hands reached his ears, like a metronome hammering in his heart. Each click made Jeremy's heart ache. He could clearly feel Madeline walking less than a yard in front of him, accompanied by laughter. He imagined the smile on her face at the moment and imagined her gentle, kind side while being the good wife and mother she was. He imagined that she would be sleeping peacefully in the arms of another man every night. Jeremy's eyes were practically blown red by the wind. He turned around quietly and drifted away from Madeline... When Lillian first met Jackson, the two little babies were very friendly with each
“Linnie?" he called out tentatively, his nervous heart beating rashly in his heart just like the day he met Madeline in college. He actually felt on edge.Jeremy did not know whether he should be happy or not. God had given him a chance to see the most beloved woman in his life again, but he could not see anything.Madeline looked at the handsome face in front of her, her delicate eyebrows becoming a little less cold and a little more gentle.She walked toward him calmly. "It looks like your leg is alright."Hearing Madeline's voice, Jeremy's heart was filled with incomparable satisfaction.It was just that her words had slightly startled him.Could it be that Linnie had come here specifically to see if his injury was healed?Thinking of this, a smile overflowed from Jeremy's lips, but he was only happy for a few seconds when Madeline's cold voice followed, "I have nothing to do with you anymore, so I don't want to owe you any favors."Jeremy's heart went cold, but he kept a sm
Madeline was not a fool. She of course understood what the old man meant.It was just that she did not want to go back.Madeline stayed with the old man in the yard for a long time while Jeremy sat on the balcony of the bedroom, listening to her gentle voice. He was enjoying the joy of this moment in silence....Felipe had received the news on his side and knew that Jeremy was avoiding Madeline. He had not let Madeline know about his blindness as well. He was quite satisfied.However, he was also more certain of Jeremy's feelings for Madeline with this and it exceeded his expectations.He thought that Jeremy would use his condition to appeal to Madeline. He did not expect Jeremy to remain quiet about the matter but also consciously avoided her.Knock, knock, knock. Someone knocked on the door of his study.After receiving his consent, a woman walked in slowly."How are things going?" Felipe asked directly.The woman raised her eyes to look at his stern face, then lowered her
Madeline had followed Felipe out to shop. After a round of shopping, Felipe took Madeline to this famous outdoor cafe.As soon as she walked onto the terrace, Madeline saw a woman leaning in the arms of a man not far in front.She glanced at them indifferently, but as she was about to look away, she realized that the man was Jeremy.Jeremy was holding a woman."Eveline, what's wrong?" Seeing Madeline staring blankly in a certain direction, Felipe asked in a concerned tone.Madeline hurriedly turned her head. "It's nothing. I just think that this cafe is very special."She sat down on the side casually, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the woman who was in Jeremy's arms just now. She was currently sitting opposite Jeremy.Felicity sat with her back facing Madeline. Madeline could not see her appearance. However, just by looking at her back, Madeline felt her manner as a woman to be quite good, so her appearance should be decent as well.When the waiter handed over the menu,
Jeremy was sitting alone. An autumn breeze blew and he vaguely smelled a familiar fragrance in the air.Then, his phone rang, interrupting his thoughts.He picked up the phone to answer it and Madeline's indifferent voice came from the other end. "Mr. Whitman, can you come to the town office at 9 AM tomorrow?"After Jeremy's momentary silence, he then answered affirmatively, "Tomorrow, 9 AM. I’ll wait for you at the town office on the dot.""Okay, see you then." Madeline hung up after speaking.She held the phone and was lost in a daze for a while before raising a smile to face Felipe who was driving. "Felipe, will you accompany me to the town office tomorrow morning? I don't want any more accidents.""Of course, I can." Felipe naturally agreed joyfully.He had also been waiting for this day for a long time.He did not want any more problems.As the autumn wind gradually rose, Jeremy held the phone and closed his eyes listlessly.The moment was finally arriving.‘Linnie, we
Madeline reacted instinctively and wanted to help Jeremy, but right at this instant, a woman got out of the car that passed by in front of her.That woman had run to Jeremy faster than her and held his arm.Madeline stopped in her tracks and looked at the woman’s back. She suddenly thought of the woman who had had coffee with Jeremy yesterday.She stood still as if she had suddenly come to a realization.‘Jeremy Whitman, it turns out our divorce has helped you.‘You already have a new lover.‘And I was never your favorite.’Felipe stopped his car in front of Madeline. When he got out to open the car door for her, he glanced toward Jeremy from his peripheral vision as the corners of his lips curved upward quietly.The sudden appearance of Felicity surprised Jeremy.However, Felicity’s explanation was reasonable. “I have a client who has been mentally abused by her husband for a long time and has some psychological problems. I came here today to accompany her to get the divorce
“But what’s so good about that scumbag? Doesn’t he just look handsome? Tell me, have you ever been happy after marrying him? You have not, so don’t ever believe what he says now about loving you and all that nonsense. He’s deceiving you. He’s trying to avenge Meredith.”Ava said before falling asleep at the dinner table. In her daze, she was still drunk talking.“Maddie, don’t ever look back again. He doesn’t love you. He’s deceiving you…”‘He’s deceiving me.’Madeline had also thought the same.She looked down at Ava and saw that Ava was drunk as a skunk.“Ava?“You said you would come here to help me look for my memories.”Madeline smiled and sighed, turning to see the figures passing by the window. Those energetic faces were permeated with the breath of youth.There were also young couples holding hands and drinking the same cup of milk tea sweetly.She thought of Jeremy again. As it turned out, she had really liked him so much.She would peep at him during her morning jo
