She had wished countless times over the past many years that she would get to hug this man in such a way and to feel the warmth of a sincere hug from this man. She had never expected this moment to come so late. This was their first and perhaps their last as well. “Jeremy,” she called out his name in an unusually calm manner. The man averted his deep peach blossom eyes to meet her, the long alluring slits staring into her flawless appearance that was mere inches away from his. Her glossy eyes were mesmerizing. “It’s okay, it’ll be alright soon. It’s just turbulence.” He comforted softly. Then, he found his own behavior weird. After all, in such a situation, should his priority not be to protect Felicity? Why did he find it so difficult to let go of the girl in his arms and let her face the danger herself? Within him came a persistent voice reminding and telling him to protect Madeline, to ensure that nothing would happen to Madeline. Madeline smiled. Looking at his fa
How could it be? How could Jeremy be hugging Madeline? Had he already broken out of the hypnosis? That was impossible! Frantic, Meredith shouted anxiously, “Why are you here, Jeremy? Why are you hugging this woman? Did you mistake her for me again?” Jeremy snapped back to reality and turned to look at Madeline. Two seconds later, he let go. Meredith immediately ran to pull Jeremy away as she glared at Madeline with animosity. “Please mind your behavior, Miss Montgomery. Stop trying to seduce my fiancé. You’re still a fake even if you’ve gotten plastic surgery to look like me. Jeremy won’t fall for it!” Regaining her footing, Madeline gave her an elegant smile. “You’re accusing me of plastic surgery? That I changed my looks to replicate yours so that I could seduce Jeremy?” “Are you finally admitting it now, Miss Montgomery?” Meredith fired back. Madeline remained unfazed. “If you’re so certain, Miss Walker, then how about we do it this way. We look too similar, so one o
“I’ve always hated that woman ever since the beginning. I can’t believe that she’d team up with that damned b*tch Yvonne to kidnap me!” Karen pursed her lips into an expression of distaste before she turned her head to smile at Jeremy. “I’m glad to see that you’ve chosen the right woman, Jeremy! Felicity’s a great girl. This time, you’ve got to sever all your ties with Madeline!” “Madeline? Isn’t her name Eveline?” Jeremy was confused. “Her name used to be Madeline, but that was when she was adopted by the Crawford family. On the topic of the Crawfords, that was a family full of heinous people, especially that Meredith. Just what kind of misfortune have our family garnered to meet such a b*tch? I will never know!” Karen spouted in disgust. Looking up, she found Felicity frowning. Her face was dark as she appeared to be deep in thought. Then, Karen continued, “You might not know this, Felicity, but that Meredith Crawford is so much worse than Madeline!” “Meredith might look obed
Watching the scene, Meredith had a bad feeling. She quickly rushed toward Jeremy with an anxious expression. “Jeremy!” Jeremy looked up at the sound to find Felicity running toward him, then turned to look at a smiling Madeline in shock. “You again, Eveline Montgomery!” Meredith pulled Jeremy and Madeline’s intertwined fingers apart. “Why won’t you leave us alone, Eveline? Stop trying to seduce my fiancé! Jeremy loves me! It’s all in your head. You’re delusional!” “Fiancé? I think you’re the one who’s delusional, Felicity.” Madeline smiled as she stepped toward Meredith, her aura completely domineering. “Allow me to introduce you two. This handsome man who I’ve just gotten registered with is my, Eveline Montgomery’s, husband.” “What? Registered?” Meredith widened her eyes. Madeline pulled the marriage certificate out of her bag and waved it in front of Meredith. “Yeah. Registered. Married.” “...” Unable to accept it, Meredith was about to explode with infuriation. “How
Jeremy was currently under hypnosis. That was the only reason he believed that the person he loved was her, Felicity. He had forgotten everything about Madeline. However, hypnosis was unstable in the sense that it could always be lifted at any time. What was she supposed to do? She dared not tell Felipe the truth. The knowledge of her failure would surely end up in Felipe killing her! … After Jeremy left, Madeline drove to the villa under the assumption that he had returned home. Standing at the doors again, Madeline felt nostalgic. She had once again become the Whitman family’s daughter-in-law—Jeremy’s Mrs. Whitman. ‘But did you truly assume that I was Felicity when we got registered, Jeremy?’ Madeline thought to herself as she walked inside. Knowing that Jeremy and Felicity had gone to get registered and would return for dinner, Karen happily went to the kitchen to fix up a flavorful dinner. Winston was shocked and confused when he found out. “You said Jeremy went
Karen, who was smiling a moment ago, instantly became petrified when she heard these words!Her eyes widened in confusion. Looking at the delicate and beautiful face in front of her, she finally realized. "You’re Madeline!""It’s Eveline Whitman, thank you." Madeline opened her mouth to correct her."How is it you?!" Karen was extremely unhappy. "What on earth do you want until you’re satisfied? I’m warning you, don't pester Jeremy anymore. He’s going to get a certificate with my future daughter-in-law, Felicity. They will soon be a legal couple! If you come pestering again, I will tell the whole world that Glendale’s glorious big shot, Miss Montgomery, is a shameless homewrecker!"Faced with Karen's threat, Madeline took out the fresh and warm marriage certificate from her bag, feeling unperturbed. After opening the folded half, she presented the marriage certificate to Karen."Is my dear mother-in-law literate? Do you understand the words above?" she asked with a smile.Karen w
Madeline ended her warning unceremoniously before hanging up the phone. She even blacklisted Felicity’s number.She stopped the car and handed the phone over with a serious expression."Jeremy, you’re my husband now. Don't interact with other women anymore or I’ll be unhappy.""Don't be unhappy. I can promise you that." His answer sounded unpleasant, even reluctant, but he agreed very readily.Madeline was satisfied with this answer. She brought Jeremy to Adam’s clinic. Adam did several checks on Jeremy and did not find any problems with Jeremy's body. Moreover, Jeremy's physique was very good compared to ordinary people.Adam also gave Jeremy a psychological evaluation and they all showed that he had no problems.With this, Adam could not start treating Jeremy. As such, Madeline had to take him away first.As they passed a red light on the way back, Madeline could not help but stare at a flower shop outside the car window in a daze. Following that, she heard the sound of the ca
Just as Jeremy went upstairs and into the bedroom, he vaguely heard Madeline's voice calling for help.He felt his heartbeat speeding up all of a sudden as he ran downstairs before he could even think about it.He ran to the gates and only saw Madeline getting into the car."What happened?" Jeremy walked over and asked."No, it's okay,” the woman responded from inside the car, "I thought there was a mouse just now, so I was shocked. Well then, Jeremy, I'm going home first."With that, the car drove out from Jeremy's vision.Jeremy felt that something was off but he could not tell what was wrong.When he turned around to leave, he lowered his eyes to see a single button on the floor by the door.He picked it up and took a closer look. This gold-colored glazed button was one of the buttons on the coat Madeline was wearing today. How did it come off?Meredith was driving Madeline's car. She raised her stern-looking eyes and glanced into the rear-view mirror.Madeline, who was un
