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. "
Felipe's pupils shrank as his brain went blank for a moment.The woman in his arms was already frozen, and her breath was so weak.He took Cathy to the hospital as quickly as possible. Felipe felt a little restless while waiting outside the emergency room.Thinking of the blood, he already had some guesses in his mind, but he did not want to think too deep into it.Not long after, the doctor came out of the emergency room.Before he could speak, the female doctor regretfully told him, "Your wife was left out in the cold for too long and has lost the child in her stomach."For some reason, Felipe felt a storm of emptiness in his heart. He then heard the doctor say, "After checking your wife's condition, it seems that she had another miscarriage a while ago. Her body hasn’t fully recovered and that’s why she miscarried again. If she isn't careful, it’ll be a recurring problem. You’re her husband, so take good care of her."The doctor left after speaking. Felipe looked inside the e
She smiled slightly when she saw the old man looking at her with distress."Grandpa, I’m glad to be a family with you again."Old Master Whitman raised his hand strenuously to hold Madeline's own. "My child, I’m also very happy. Thank you for giving Jeremy a second chance.""Jeremy won this opportunity for himself. You don’t have to thank me."She recalled what had happened during this period of time, how the man had repeatedly dashed on bravely with no thought of personal safety. His sincerity and his regret… She had seen it all.Madeline realized then that Jeremy seemed to be missing.Where could he have gone this early in the morning?Madeline walked to the side and called Jeremy. After her call was answered, she immediately asked, "Jeremy, where are you?"She threw out her question and was still waiting for Jeremy’s answer when she heard Meredith's voice coming from the other end. “Jeremy, I’m so afraid to live in a hotel alone. I’ll die without you. Can you not leave me?"
When Cathy said this, Madeline was surprised and confused.She said she did something undue to Jeremy and her?Madeline could not figure out what it could be, but she promised Cathy to take Jeremy to see her.Jeremy did not ask much and just followed Madeline obediently.The meeting place was a very secluded cafe where there were no others except the cashier.After Madeline and Jeremy came in, the female cashier asked, "Are you friends of Miss Cathy? She’s waiting for you upstairs.""Thank you." Madeline thanked her and went upstairs with Jeremy.As soon as she got to the second floor, Madeline saw Cathy sitting by the window with an absent gaze. She looked haggard with a pale complexion. Even her lips held no blood and her eye sockets were ever red and misty.Madeline was a little worried as she walked over quickly. "Cathy, are you okay?"Only then did Cathy notice that Madeline and Jeremy had arrived. She was thinking about what Felipe had said to her in the hospital that da
More than half an hour later, Cathy came down from the stairs. "Evie, Jeremy’s hypnosis has been undone. He hasn’t fully woken up yet. When he wakes up, he will completely remember you, how much he loves you, and everything between you both."Madeline breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. "Thank you, Cathy."Cathy felt even more ashamed. "Don't thank me. I'm just trying to make up for it.""Evie, then I’ll be leaving first. I wish you and Jeremy happiness in the future.""Cathy, wait." Madeline held her. "You told me on the phone that you’re leaving. Where are you going? Do you want to leave Glendale?""Yeah." Cathy forced herself to put on a smile on her lips, revealing her charming dimples. "Felipe agreed to let me be with the man I like, so I’ve decided to look for him. I hope that one day, we can be like you and Jeremy and depend on each other for life and death."She smiled enviously, but her eyes were red."Goodbye, Evie. This may be the last time we meet."After C
What?Jumping into the river? Suicide?Felipe's fingers that were holding the phone suddenly trembled. "What are you talking about? What do you mean jumped into the river? Hold the phone and don't move from there. I'm coming over right now!"He rushed out. As he was driving to the destination, Felipe was so restless that even his hands that were clutching the steering wheel were trembling slightly.Cathy's face flashed in his mind. She was looking at him carefully.Felipe did not know how long it took before he finally reached the place where the person said that someone had jumped into the river.The location was a bit remote and there were not many people watching, but some firefighters had gone down to salvage the situation.Felipe walked over quickly. Just then, there was a man holding a mobile phone and looking at the photos on the screensaver before walking toward him. "Are you the boyfriend of the girl who just jumped into the river? Look at this, yeah? This is your girlf
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
