Madeline’s tone suddenly became serious.Jeremy seemed surprised, but the darkness in front of him prevented him from capturing Madeline’s expression at that moment. He could not even guess why Madeline was looking for him.“My car is just at the front. Jeremy, let’s find a place to sit down and talk.”Her proactive invitation made Jeremy’s heart beat faster.However, he smiled and refused. “No, Miss Montgomery. I have something else to do.”Madeline glanced at Felicity who was waiting at the side. “It’s alright. You can go out with your girlfriend first. We’ll make an appointment again.”Girlfriend?Jeremy then came to understand. He felt a pain in his heart.‘Jeremy, why are you disappointed?‘Didn’t you want her to misunderstand?’He mocked himself silently but still gave Madeline a warm smile. “Please help yourself, Miss Montgomery.”He got into Felicity’s car after he said that. He had behaved nonchalantly from beginning till the end, but only he knew how much he cared.
“Hey beautiful, why don’t you play with the three of us? We won’t treat you badly.”The hooligans said frivolous things while eyeing lecherously at Madeline’s face and body.Madeline swept her glance at the three men in disgust. Her gaze was sharp and cold. “Get out of the way.”The beach was vast and empty. Jeremy, who had been sitting still, unexpectedly heard Madeline’s voice.He turned his face to listen carefully, but he heard the vulgar voices of several men instead.“What an attitude!”“We happen to like this kind of beauty with an attitude!”“Come on, we’ll make you very happy!”Madeline cast a cold gaze. “Don’t touch me. Go away.”However, the more Madeline resisted, the more excited the three drunken men became.“Linnie?” Jeremy was now certain that it was really Madeline’s voice.He did not expect that Madeline would be nearby and that three rascals were now harassing her.His gaze sank as he got up hurriedly. He was running toward the source of the sound in stri
How could Jeremy tolerate a man using such vulgar and frivolous words about Madeline's body? His eyes sank, and his words were like ice."Although you guys have simple minds and simple limbs, you have good vision. She’s indeed my wife."His voice fell, and with his sensitive hearing, he knocked the three hooligans to the ground with thunderous force.“Ow, ow!” The b*stard named Nate yelled, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.Jeremy retracted his hand and once again embraced Madeline in his arms, spreading wings of shelter over her.The rain gradually got heavier, but Madeline felt a warm current passing from Jeremy’s body to hers. This warmth made her feel inexplicably at ease.Although blinded, Jeremy's eyes were still sharp and were dyed with a breathtaking vibe."If you don't want to die, apologize to my wife immediately."His commanding tone made the three hooligans tremble.When the one named Walter was about to apologize, one of them suddenly realized that Jeremy
With that move, the man threw away his blade in pain and rolled onto the ground with a pale face."Get lost!"Madeline denounced aggressively.The other two saw this scene and were so scared that they turned and left.Madeline immediately called the police, but after seeing the blood still running from Jeremy's arm and how it was raining, she was not patient enough to wait for the police to arrive. As such, she took Jeremy to the car."I'll take you to a health center nearby to bandage the wound.""How did you know that there’s a health center nearby?"Madeline was also surprised when Jeremy asked this all of a sudden.Yeah, how would she know?However, it was a truth in her memory.Without delay, she took Jeremy to the health center based on what she remembered.When they came out after treating the wound, it was raining even heavily.Just then, Madeline received a call from Felipe. He was asking her where she was.Madeline glanced at Jeremy who was standing beside her an
Jeremy’s face appeared worried, but he was still blankly looking for Madeline's figure in the darkness.Although Madeline was no longer a weak woman, she was still inevitably surprised when a gecko had crawled to her side so suddenly. She also did not expect Jeremy to just suddenly enter so anxiously."Linnie? What happened to you? Where are you?" Jeremy fumbled around. There was intense uneasiness and worry in his tone.Madeline was standing aside, and she saw how Jeremy was searching for her in confusion as her heart trembled secretly."Linnie, please answer me quickly. Where are you?" he asked again nervously. Madeline could no longer remain silent."I’m here."As soon as he heard Madeline's voice, Jeremy followed the direction it came from. The moment he touched Madeline's body, he embraced her tightly while wishing he could melt her into his own blood."Are you alright?" His low voice was trembling with a hint of tension.Madeline was stunned for two seconds before she rep
Jeremy stretched out his hand to take it but did not manage to touch the cup for a while.Seeing him struggle blindly, Madeline inexplicably felt an unease in her heart.She held Jeremy's hand and placed the teacup precisely into his palm.The skin contact during this brief moment made Jeremy feel a little bit lost in his thoughts.He felt Madeline's warm and soft palm on the back of his hand for a short moment. The ginger tea that slid down his throat was unusually sweet.Madeline handed their wet clothes to the proprietress, and when she returned, Jeremy had already finished his ginger tea. He was sitting quietly by the window.She walked toward him, and as she was about to speak, her nose suddenly itched. She then turned away to sneeze.Jeremy turned his head and looked at her with his eyebrows furrowed. "Miss Montgomery, if you’re feeling unwell, you should rest earlier. Don't worry, I won't leave until you’re done discussing what you intend to discuss with me."Madeline look
Felipe squinted his icy eyes at him. "What are you doing?" he questioned back in a cold voice with a dark expression. "Eveline is already my woman. She no longer has anything to do with you, Jeremy. Think about what you did to Eveline before. If it weren't for me, Eveline would already be a handful of ashes."Felipe's words hit Jeremy's heart hard.If Felipe had not saved her, she would have gone to another world...It was Felipe who gave Madeline the chance to be born again.Jeremy seemed to suddenly have had all his strength sucked out of him. He released his grip on Felipe."Jeremy, remember what you said. Don't disturb Eveline's peace anymore."Felipe left a final reminder before turning around while carrying Madeline in his arms.Listening to the furthering footsteps, Jeremy felt as if Madeline was the tide in the ocean that was slowly fading away outside the window. She had become his past that he could no longer reach.Madeline's fever had subsided, but her head was stil
Just as she was about to come in contact with Madeline's skin, she drew her hands back."Madeline, if you can change your name and come back to life, so can I."Felicity chuckled with a low voice, her eyes growing even gloomier."Madeline, I will definitely not allow you and Jeremy the chance to be together again. He belongs to me, and you… Just you wait. One day I’ll prove to you that the final winner will be me!"She fiercely swore to Madeline who was deep in sleep before secretly leaving the room.…After resting for two days, Madeline’s mental state completely recovered.Recalling what had happened at the hotel that night, she called Jeremy.No one answered the phone after a long time.She tried to make another call, but the result remained the same.While she was thinking of going to Jeremy directly to clarify, Felipe appeared in front of her. His brows were tender as he asked her softly, "Eveline, have you decided when to take Jack and Lily back to F Country with me?""
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
