Madeline carried Lillian into the house, but since she had another child in her stomach, she did not carry her for too long. Then, she kissed her on the cheek. “Lily, I’ll make some muffins for you now. Can you come and help me?”“Okay!”The little girl blinked her crystal-like eyes and followed Madeline into the kitchen.Jeremy watched from inside his car that was a distance away, looking at Madeline holding a child before walking into the house.He also saw the sincere smile on Madeline’s face.When had she ever smiled at him like that?Jeremy clenched his fingers around the steering wheel as the fire in his eyes burned brightly.“I guess I was just overthinking. I had believed myself as infallible when reality has proven to me otherwise. The man you love right now is really him.”Buzz, buzz.When Jeremy’s phone rang, he answered it without hesitating.His assistant, Ken, could be heard talking from the other end. “Mr. Whitman, I just got the news that Felipe’s at the wareh
He looked at his phone and saw that Madeline had called him.After knowing that Madeline wanted to stay in the outer courtyard with Lillian, he agreed.On the way back, he received information about Yvette.Everything checked out.However, there were still doubts in Felipe’s dark eyes.Back then, he was able to get a brand new identity for Madeline, so it would not be strange if Jeremy had gotten one for Cathy.However, the only thing he could not understand was the relationship between Jeremy and Cathy.Also, why would Jeremy help Cathy?However, if this was indeed true, he would be happy.It meant that she was still alive.Felipe pulled the hairband on his wrist and put it on his finger. There was a deep smile on his face.‘Cathy, we’ll see each other soon.’Outer courtyard.Madeline was just done baking muffins. When Lillian came over to taste them happily, Felipe came home.Lillian called out sweetly when she saw him, “Daddy!”Felipe smiled softly and walked over to
Felipe watched as this happened from a distance. Then, he curled his lips into a smirk. “You came.”He looked confident as he ordered the driver, “Follow them.”After Madeline was tossed into the backseat, the car started quickly.The man driving was wearing a face mask. However, how could Madeline not recognize the man’s eyes?“Jeremy, when did you come to F Country? Why are you kidnapping me? What do you want?”Jeremy looked at the rear-view mirror and saw Madeline’s unhappy face. He did not say anything.After driving for about 20 minutes, Jeremy finally stopped the car.There were a lot of villas on the outskirts of F Country. Then, Jeremy drove the car into one of the villas.He removed the mask and opened the door for Madeline.“Get out.”Madeline got out of the car with an icy look. When she saw the man walking into the building without even turning back, she was even more puzzled.“Jeremy, what are you playing at?”The man stopped and spoke with a cold voice, “Come
This was why Felipe had such a huge influence and amassed such wealth in F Country. He had been doing illegal trades all this while.He had crossed the line. If someone reported him with enough evidence, the foundation he built would crumble and be destroyed.He would also face jail time while his reputation would be ruined.Jeremy looked at the changes in Madeline’s expression and started to feel worried for her. “Do you still think you’ll have a future with him after you see this video?”Madeline put the phone down and said in dissatisfaction, “Why did you show me this? Do you think I’ll leave him because of this?”Jeremy clearly did not expect Madeline to react like that. He strode toward her and held her wrist. “Eveline Montgomery, do you know what you’re talking about?”“Of course, I do. The person who doesn’t know anything is you.”“What are you saying?”Madeline pushed his hand away. “I’ll support Felipe no matter what he does. Don’t even think for a second that I’ll lea
Felipe pulled the trigger without hesitation.He had already made up his mind to stop Jeremy from destroying the foundation he built and his enormous power.Since he had been exposed and even had a video taken of him, he should take care of this quickly and straightforwardly.Plus, he had been annoyed at Jeremy for a very long time.This annoyance lasted for more than ten years.Perhaps it started when Old Master Whitman began to pamper Jeremy and abandoned him in F Country to fend for himself.Jeremy walked downstairs and saw a red dot on Ken’s temple.He yelled out, “Get down!”Ken lowered his head reflexively after he heard that. Then, he heard the sound of the window smashing and a bullet flying above his head.When Felipe saw this from the magnifier, he furrowed his brows together.He eventually noticed that the man on the sofa was not Jeremy. Since Ken had his back to him, Felipe only saw his hair and side profile. That was why he mistook him for Jeremy.After Felipe s
‘The product of love.’Jeremy lifted his brow, his suppressed anger overpowering his rationality and calmness like a strong tide.He rushed forward to Madeline and trapped her in front of him without caring about anything. “He’s not the man you love. I am! Eveline Montgomery, the man you love is me! Did you forget how you used to think about me and wait for me day and night back then? I won’t allow you to fall in love with another man!”He emphasized sternly. He had completely lost his cool.His charming eyes were overwhelmed by jealousy, making him lose all reason and composure as he commanded for her to only love him.Jeremy lifted her beautiful face when he saw her not saying anything. He stared straight at her with red eyes and repeated.“Do you hear me? Eveline Montgomery, you can only love me. I won’t allow you to have another man in your heart. You can only have me in here!”He was pointing at her heart when suddenly, he pulled her coat and kissed her on the lips forceful
Madeline felt her heart skipping a beat.Had Jeremy been awake the entire time? Had he just been pretending to sleep?Did he hear everything she said just now?Madeline did not know how to handle what was going on right now, but she realized that Jeremy was only changing his position. He had not been pretending to sleep and did not hear what she said just now.When she saw this, Madeline felt disappointed, but at the same time, she was also a little scared.‘Actually, I was hoping that you’d find out the truth.‘But I’m scared that our daughter will be in danger again if you knew.’Madeline escaped from Jeremy’s embrace and used all of her might to pull the man down to lie down on the bed.After she did all of that, Madeline was exhausted. Therefore, she lay down beside Jeremy and fell asleep.Looking at his gentle sleeping face, Madeline lifted his hand gently and placed it on her stomach. “Jeremy, when I had Jack, I longed for you to believe me. I longed for you to touch my
“Alright.” Ken limped up to him.Madeline did not have a chance to say anything before she was ignored.However, she did not go to eat breakfast. On the contrary, she tiptoed to the second floor.When she got to the end of the stairs, she heard Jeremy’s voice from the bedroom. “We don’t have enough evidence now, so I have to go to the warehouse to get more.”“Mr. Whitman, it’s too dangerous. Why don’t we go back to Glendale before we do anything?”“Do you think we can go back to Glendale now?”Jeremy knew very well that Felipe had already marked his location.The best proof was him firing at Ken yesterday.Felipe already knew his whereabouts.Felipe even knew that Madeline was with him.“Mr. Whitman, so what now? I can’t help you now that I’m like this.”“You should stay here and recover. He won’t want to kill you now as I’m his biggest target.” Jeremy’s eyes looked calm as he made the final decision. “If I don’t come back before seven tonight, you should bring Eveline and g
