Lana smiled coquettishly as she drew closer and closer to Jeremy, the cigarette butt between her fingers fluttering silently with white smoke.She looked at Jeremy's despondent appearance at the moment, feeling satisfied. She was about to take the opportunity to kiss him, but from her peripheral vision, she suddenly saw Madeline holding up her phone with the camera pointed at her as she slowly walked in."Why don’t you continue, Miss Johnson? Don’t you want to be famous? I'll help you," Madeline said with a slight smile, "I’ll post this video online in a moment so that people from all over the world can see how a vixen seduces married men."Hearing Madeline's clear voice, Jeremy seemingly recovered his thoughts. However, he felt a little fuzzy about what had happened just now.Lana nipped the cigarette butt as her enthusiasm dampened. Smiling disdainfully at Madeline, she said, "I was just kidding. Mrs. Whitman doesn't have to be so serious about it."“For such a joke, I would rat
...Perhaps it was due to the psychological effects that were brought about by this nightmare, so Madeline somehow felt a little discomfort in her stomach.She went to the hospital for an examination. Jeremy had to chair an important meeting, hence he could not accompany her.After the check-up, Madeline gave the test sheet to Adam who then read it carefully."Eveline, I'll prescribe another medicine for you. This medicine will not affect the fetus. It’s mainly used to stabilize your emotions. It’s enough for you to take one a day. You should not be working anymore in the near future so that you can get a good rest."Madeline knew that her mood as a pregnant woman would often fluctuate, and her dream last night was so vivid that she still remembered a little bit of it.She nodded, thanked Adam, and went back.When she had already left the room, a person leisurely walked out of the small room in Adam's office.Lana was smoking a cigarette, expelling clouds and mist. "It seems th
Madeline clearly saw a man and a woman intimately hugging and kissing each other.This woman was naturally Lana, and the man was...It was absolutely impossible for her to misremember the contours of the man’s back that was engraved deep in her mind."Jeremy..."There was a dull pain in Madeline's heart, and her thoughts suddenly became chaotic.She forced herself to calm down, but her emotions seemed to be getting more out of control.The dim light in front of her eyes and the unique fragrance made her dizzy.Lana raised those charming eyes of hers and smiled triumphantly at Madeline who was gradually getting pale. "Mrs. Whitman, have you arrived?"Her tone was arrogant, contemptuous, and provocative. "Mr. Whitman's kissing is really so good. Such a man really makes me unable to extricate myself."She knew that Lana was deliberately provoking her, but Madeline could not calm herself down.She quickly clenched her fists and walked up behind the man before pulling him and Lana
Madeline returned to the car. The air in the basement made her mind less chaotic than before, but her hands that were holding the steering wheel were shaking.She persuaded herself to calm down, but she had no strength to drive anymore.Her mind was now filled with images of Jeremy and Lana kissing each other.The woman's triumphant smile and the man's disdainful eyebrows resembled his cold attitude toward her back then.Yet, Madeline kept feeling that Jeremy had a reason for his behavior today.She was incapable of driving now, so she had been waiting in the car.She did not know how long she had been waiting. She imagined Jeremy and Lana still being in the same room at this moment, imagining what they might be doing. Madeline's heart hurt.She could not sit here and wait.Madeline got out of the car and was about to take the elevator up when she saw Jeremy walking toward where she was.The man was now neatly dressed, looking awe-inspiring and elegant."Jeremy," Madeline cal
Jeremy suddenly heard a dull crash, like a heavy object falling to the groundHe thought Madeline was smashing things while sulking and became more worried.“Linnie.” He knocked on the door and called out, “Linnie, are you alright?”Jeremy asked but did not receive any response from Madeline.His sudden and restless heartbeat made Jeremy unable to wait any longer. He tried to open the door, but it was locked from the inside.“Linnie, what are you doing inside? Linnie!”Jeremy’s voice held a little more panic and confusion.He threw away the pillow and lifted his long legs to kick the lock of the door.As soon as the door was kicked open, Jeremy saw Madeline lying on the bedside and the pills that were scattered all over the floor. His eyes were suddenly filled with horror.“Linnie!” He hurriedly ran to Madeline’s side and hugged her.Seeing Madeline’s face that was as pale as snow, Jeremy was in a mess. “Linnie, wake up! Eveline! Eveline Montogomery!”No matter how Jeremy ca
“I’m not talking nonsense.” Lana opened the video in her phone gallery and handed the phone to Jeremy.The contents of the video showed Madeline entering the hotel room not long ago.Jeremy watched the video and listened to the dialogue, an expression of shock over his face.Madeline had mistaken this strange man who was dressed just like him as him!He understood why Madeline had not let him touch her, even calling him dirty.Yet, how could this be? The man was clearly not him. They looked completely different. Apart from the clothes, there was no similarity between him and this man, but Madeline really thought that the man was him.“Lana, what tricks did you use? Why is Madeline like this?!” Jeremy questioned, his heart tightening inch by inch by something invisible.He could imagine how upset and disappointed Madeline had been when she thought the man was him.Lana tossed a bag of pink pills into Jeremy’s hand. “A type of drug that can cause hallucinations. Isn’t it amazing?
Madeline had just regained consciousness. The last thing she wanted to see as soon as she opened her eyes was Jeremy and Lana talking in front of the door of the ward.The last thing she expected was for Lana to kiss Jeremy so suddenly with a bright smile.Madeline suddenly clenched her fists and sat up. She was about to get off the bed when she felt a throbbing pain in her abdomen. She reflexively held her belly.Lana knew that her attempt this time would not succeed, and indeed, she was pushed aside harshly by Jeremy once again.However, their position and actions just now were enough to make Madeline think that Lana kissed Jeremy.Jeremy still wanted to ask Lana to get the medicine, but when he heard the noise in the ward and looked back, he found that Madeline was already awake.“Get out of here, don’t be an eyesore in front of my wife.”He sent Lana away in a cold voice and immediately pushed the door to enter. Seeing Madeline frowning and holding her belly, he felt even mo
Madeline was picked up by another man?“He’s a gentleman with glasses, quite handsome.” The man described by the nurse immediately reminded Jeremy of Adam Brown.However, he now knew that Adam was no longer a mere doctor.If Madeline went with him, she would only end up in a more dangerous situation.He immediately called Madeline, but the call was hung up.In the car, Madeline looked at the darkened screen and simply turned off the phone.Adam glanced at Madeline as a rare smile appeared on his handsome and proper face. “Aren’t you worried that Jeremy won’t be able to find you if you follow me out like this?”Madeline chuckled. “He wants to see another woman more now.”Adam pretended to be puzzled. “Another woman?”Madeline did not speak anymore and merely looked out of the car window. After a while, she saw a familiar car in the rear-view mirror.It was Jeremy’s car.Madeline’s head was full of the ambiguous scenes of Jeremy and Lana. She turned to look at Adam. “Dr. Brown
