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
Meredith curled her red lips and pointed her finger at Madeline's delicate face. "In this world, only one Eveline is needed."Hearing this, Madeline gradually understood what Meredith meant.Meredith wanted to get rid of her completely, replace her, and become Eveline."Madeline, I failed to kill you back then, letting you survive on death’s door. I won’t lower my guard this time."Meredith smiled and hauled the feeble Madeline to the lake."Don't you miss your daughter very much? I’ll send you to her now. Madeline, from now on, there will no longer be a you in this world while I will become the real Eveline, hahaha..."She laughed wildly, her eyes suddenly turning cold."Go to hell!"Meredith tried her best to push Madeline toward the icy lake.Madeline wanted to escape, but she was weak and disappeared into the lake with a plop!The knife-biting coldness tore a thousand cuts into her skin. Darkness and coldness gradually swallowed her consciousness and breathing. Madeline o
Meredith’s hand that was holding the wedding dress shook!She looked at the figure that had appeared in the mirror with astonishment and turned her head in disbelief.“Eveline!”Meredith's eyes widened in panic as she slowly retreated. She pointed at Madeline who was wearing a pure white dress, her long hair fluttering. "Are you a person or a ghost? Why are you here?!"Madeline looked at her with a smile. "What do you think? Am I a person or a ghost?""...""It’s really cold in the water, my good sister. Will you come with me?""Ah!" Meredith screamed in fright, threw away the wedding dress in her hand, and wanted to run out.However, Madeline stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. "My good sister, what's the hurry? I'll take you away, don't worry."Feeling the cold touch on her wrist, Meredith was even more frightened!This was a dead person!How could the hands of a living person be this cold? It was impossible!Meredith's face was pale. Seeing Madeline approaching, her f
Madeline sat in front of the makeup mirror and put on some light, simple makeup on herself. She gently pulled back her long hair on both sides and finally put on the wedding dress."Mom, you’re so pretty. You’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen."Jackson blinked his large and clear glass-like eyes. They were full of admiration and love.Madeline smiled and tapped the tip of Jackson’s nose. "You’re also the most endearing little bun I’ve ever seen.""I'm not a bun. I'm Mommy and Daddy’s baby." Jackson corrected seriously.Looking at his simple and cute face, Madeline's heart felt a little twinge of pain. ‘Lilliam, if you were here today, we would have a complete family of four.’Madeline turned and opened the door. The makeup artist saw that Madeline had changed her makeup and was surprised. "Miss Montgomery, what about your styling and makeup—""I just tried on the wedding dress. I didn't think the style before was suitable, so I changed it myself."The makeup artist no
Just as Madeline stretched out her hand, ready to accept Jeremy's wedding ring, she saw Felipe walking toward them.Looking at his posture, he obviously had not come to offer his blessings.How could he bless her and Jeremy?Madeline was wearing a veil and stood far away on the stage. Felipe did not recognize her either, only thinking she was Meredith.He walked over and saw Old Master Whitman staring at him seriously. Felipe laughed indifferently."Why do you look like this? Today is a good day for Jeremy to get married, so shouldn't you be happy?""Happy? Felipe, do you think this old man could still be happy when he sees you?" Karen was stunned.Winston grabbed her and turned to face Felipe calmly. "Felipe, you don't need to give any gifts. You’re not welcome here, so leave."Felipe laughed and handed over a document. "My gift is the deed to Whitman Manor. Do you really not want it?"When Karen heard this, her eyes brightened. "Is this really the deed to Whitman Manor?""E
He did not, however, expect Jeremy's bride to be Madeline and that Madeline would go along with the flow to accept the lease to the manor.Seeing Madeline's firm and sharp eyes, Felipe did not want to invite a snub anymore.He did not understand Jeremy's reaction. Jeremy was obviously hypnotized and could not possibly have any feelings for Madeline, but Jeremy's eyes when he looked at Madeline were very gentle—even affectionate.The more he thought about it, the more irritated he got.That woman Meredith had promised him decisively yesterday that this matter was successfully dealt with, but now, it was more like he had been dealt with by Madeline.Felipe called Meredith immediately after leaving the banquet hall, but no one answered.Madeline and Jeremy proceeded with the wedding ceremony in the presence of their guests.They exchanged their rings, said ‘I do’ to each other, and at the end, he bowed his head before kissing her lips gently.After the ceremony, Madeline put on he
Madeline never thought there would be a day when she would take the initiative to kiss this man.However, the feeling was beyond control.The same was true for Jeremy.Although there was a voice in his mind telling him that he did not know nor love this woman, his body instinctively wanted to be close to her. He even wanted to possess everything of hers.The lights in the room went out and there was only the hazy cold moonlight.The snow was falling outside the window and the icy sky was shifting, but Madeline and Jeremy’s hearts were fiery and hot.It was just that his gentle treatment at this moment had reminded her of his savage behavior.In those years, he had never cherished her this much.Jeremy was kissing Madeline when he suddenly tasted the salty tears at the corner of her eyes."What's the matter?" His low, soft voice slipped into her ears like a cool night.Madeline opened her eyes and caught the man's deep and tender eyes in the dark."Jeremy, you must recover qui
Cathy bit her lip tightly as she opened her eyes stubbornly and forced her tears back."Don't drive me away. As long as you can keep me by your side, I’ll do what you want me to do. I’ll do my best.""Heh," Felipe sneered, "Do you like me that much? So much so that you don't even have self-esteem and self-love?""I don’t just like you." Cathy met his eyes, unwavering.However, Felipe dismissed her. He shoved her away, not even looking at her from the corner of his eye."Get out. Go to the gates and reflect on whether you’ve been giving it your all when carrying out my orders."Cathy was a little stunned when she heard the words. It was snowing outside and the temperature was freezing.She could not bear such cold weather now."Not going?" Felipe urged.Cathy squeezed her fists and decided not to take such a risk again.She had lost it once and could not lose it again."I... I don't want to go." She refused, defying his orders for the first time.Felipe was also surprised. "
