Madeline had never seen Felipe like this before. She figured it might be because of what happened in the morning.She could see an intense possessiveness in his red eyes.It made her extremely uncomfortable that he was holding her close to him.“Felipe, don’t drink so much. Let’s talk,” she said as she tried to get away from his embrace. However, when this thought emerged in her head, Felipe saw through her and placed his hand on the back of her head.He leaned forward, his face looking intoxicated under the dim light of the chandelier. Plus, his narrow eyes were dazed as if he was in a trance as he slowly got closer to Madeline.Madeline turned her face away when she sensed that Felipe was about to kiss her.Felipe frowned when he was greeted with nothing and grabbed Madeline’s face to force her to look at him.“Felipe, you’re drunk…”“Eveline, do you know how much I liked you the moment I laid eyes on you?”Madeline was slightly stunned when she heard Felipe’s confession.F
Madeline removed her hand from his. “Felipe, I have to go now.”“Eveline.”“I’ll come to visit you tomorrow. Have a good night’s sleep and stop overthinking.”Madeline turned around to leave, and the moment Felipe’s hand became empty, he felt his heart becoming empty as well.After Madeline’s figure completely disappeared from his vision, Felipe sat upright as a layer of darkness covered his eyes immediately.He had pretended to be drunk and fragile just so he could get some concern and care from her. However, she just walked away without turning back.She did not have any longing for him at all.The temperature in the room was plummeting from the coldness he was emitting from his body.At this moment, he could hear footsteps from outside the door. Felipe lifted his head expectantly and saw Cathy walking over to him with a cup.“Get out.” Felipe kicked her out impatiently.However, Cathy still walked to him with a smile. “You drank a lot of alcohol. This tea will help you get
Felipe was shocked about Madeline’s sudden appearanceHowever, he was not worried at all and said to the woman who was spacing out on the bed in a deep voice, “Go into the bathroom. Don’t make any noise before I ask you to come out.”Cathy understood what Felipe meant. She nodded and went to pick up her clothes that were scattered all over the floor.“Hurry.” Felipe urged her in a cold voice.Due to her shock, the blanket she was holding fell to the floor. There was some dried blood on the bed and Felipe’s eyes darkened when he saw that.However, he retained his cool demeanor. “Pick up your clothes. Go in.”She did not dare to go against him or infuriate him.Cathy was naked as she picked up the clothes on the floor hurriedly. After that, she ran into the bathroom.Felipe spread the blanket over the bed before opening the door.The coldness of his face disappeared when he saw Madeline, and there was only a gentle grin now. “Eveline, why are you so early?”“Didn’t I tell you
There were no changes to Felipe’s expression at all.It was as if this woman was not the same person who he had slept with last night.Madeline smiled back at her. “Good morning, Cathy.” She smiled and turned to Felipe. “I promised Jack that I’ll take him to the bookstore later, so I’m going to go now.”Felipe looked at her with love in his eyes. “I’ll call you later.”“Okay.” She nodded. Before she left, she said, “Don’t drink anymore.”Felipe nodded and watched as she walked away.Cathy looked at the handsome and soft smile on Felipe’s face before lowering her head dispiritedly.She knew clearly that she should not have any feelings for Felipe. However, he was also an obsession that she could not let go of after so many years.…After Madeline went back to Montgomery Manor, she took Jackson to the bookstore.Sean and Eloise were planning to take Lillian to the playground, but when she saw Madeline taking her brother outside, she blinked her lively eyes and begged to go with
‘Positive paternity test.’Even though he had expected this result, Jeremy was still stuck in a daze for a long time on his bed.He held the phone in his shaky hands, eyes glued to the three words. Then, his mind wandered into a faraway place.That year, he had witnessed Daniel kissing Madeline on the forehead. Eventually, he was blinded by rage and forced himself on her.Now, Jeremy finally realized how petty of a man he was.He could not allow other men around her aside from him.He felt that he was despicable and heinous. He always wanted to vent his feelings and emotions, never caring about how she felt.“Linnie.”Jeremy called Madeline’s name and there was a spark of joy in his pain.He was glad that she belonged to him this entire time.He was even more glad that she was able to come back to his life safe and sound. Plus, she even brought such a cute and lively daughter with her.However, when he remembered that Madeline refused to admit that Lillian was his daughter,
Madeline wanted to hang up the phone directly, but when she remembered who the person who kidnapped Lillian was, she asked the driver to change the route. They went straight to the house.Jeremy waited for Madeline frantically. After he knew the person who kidnapped Lillian was Yvonne, he was fuming.Karen was about to leave when she saw Madeline arriving. She wanted to avoid her out of guilt but ran into Winston when she turned around.Winston was confused when he saw her in a panic and spacing out.“You’ve been acting strangely after you were saved from Yvonne last time. What’s going on?”“I’m not.” Karen denied it. Then, she looked at Madeline with an annoyed look on her face. “I wonder why she’s here. I think she’ll only stop after she kills all of us.”Winston finally saw Madeline who was chatting with Jeremy at the door. Then, he frowned and complained. “If Madeline hadn’t saved you with the ransom, you would’ve been killed by your despicable niece.”“Hmph.” Karen scoffed
Meredith fell on the floor. She was in so much pain that she could not get up.Suddenly, she heard Yvonne telling her that she would kill her, so she lifted her head to look. Then, she saw Yvonne waving the dagger at her as if she was crazy.Meredith dodged hurriedly and backed away. “You’re insane! You psycho! Look closely, I’m not Madeline!”“Don’t hit my mommy, Aunty. Don’t hit my mommy, boo-hoo…” At this moment, Lillian slammed her hands down on the window and begged Yvonne while bawling her eyes out.Yvonne scoffed when she heard Lily’s pleas. With the combination of cigarettes, alcohol, and hallucinogens, under the setting sun, Yvonne was sure that Meredith was Madeline.“You b*tch, how dare you lie to me? Do you think I’m blind? Do you think that I don’t know your face?” Yvonne lifted her hand angrily and slapped Meredith again.“Ah!” Meredith was enraged. Her face was plastic, so she could not handle Yvonne’s torment.When she saw Yvonne holding the dagger to kill her ag
Yvonne started cackling loudly as if she had been possessed when she saw Meredith bleeding out in pain.Meredith gritted her teeth and glared at her angrily. “You psycho! You… Hiss!”Yvonne stabbed her again and a bloody ‘X’ appeared on Meredith’s face. Warm blood started pouring from her wounds.Meredith was in excruciating pain. She wanted to struggle but could not as she was tied up.Then, she saw Yvonne taking out a lighter.Meredith started to panic. She could feel that Yvonne despised Madeline to the bone. However, this crazy woman thought she was Madeline and was releasing all of her hatred and resentment on her!“W-What are you doing? What are you trying to do, you psycho?”Yvonne’s eyes were filled with poison as she walked to the car with the lighter. Lillian was screaming for her mommy by the window.“Madeline, I want you to watch your demon child die right in front of your eyes!”She was trying to take action against the child, so Meredith let out a sigh of relief.
