Upon hearing this, Lana's eyes lit up immediately.She hurriedly got up and walked into the room.The man sitting on the bed was looking at the wounds on his body. When he suddenly heard someone barging in, he raised his eyebrows and looked toward the direction coldly.Lana looked at those charming eyes, and the corners of her lips curled up ambiguously."You’ve finally woken up."...Glendale.A month later, Madeline was still numbing her thoughts by working daily. She would force herself to stop thinking about sorrowful things.For the sake of the child in her belly and her lovely pair of children, she lived every day positively and optimistically.As she was still unable to accept the fact that Jeremy was no longer alive, she still had to face insomnia during the lonely nights.Madeline came to Whitman Corporation early Monday morning and sat in the seat that once belonged to Jeremy. She then proceeded to handle all kinds of complicated documents skillfully and swiftly.W
Ryan's concerned voice rang in her ears, and Madeline breathed out a sigh of relief. She quickly thanked him. "Fortunately I had Mr. Jones. Thank you for your help."When the waiter saw this scene, he quickly came over to apologize and offered to give Madeline a waiver on her bill.Madeline did not pursue the matter further. She went back to the company after she thanked Ryan.After returning home, Madeline began designing the wedding ring seriously.Then on the next day, she went to Whitman Manor early in the morning.In a blink of an eye, Jeremy had been gone for a month and today was the one-month anniversary of his death.The moment Madeline stepped in through the door, however, Karen then said to her strangely, "Oh, it seems that you remember what day it is today? You’re actually putting on quite the comprehensive act for this affectionate scene."Many relatives and friends were currently offering their respects to Jeremy, and there was even a funeral conductor present.Up
Through the car window, Madeline saw the face that she had been dreaming of.She hurriedly lowered the window and stared blankly at the man sitting in the passenger seat of the car next door.Through the curtain of rain, the outline of the man's resolute and graceful profile fell into her sight.Madeline stared incredulously while her heartbeat gradually became faster. "Jeremy..." she softly called out, and the man in the car turned his face toward her.However, the light had turned to green at this moment and the car drove away right past her with a swish.It seemed that what happened at that instant was merely an illusion.Madeline was in a daze until a honking sound came from behind, urging her to move. Only then did she step on the accelerator, but the car from just now was already nowhere to be found. She did not remember the license plate number of the car either.Madeline immediately investigated the incident through her connections, but nothing was found.‘Jeremy, is it
More blatant and targeted words flew toward Madeline from everywhere as she turned sharply. “Fine! I’ll just do as you wish and allow the truth and evidence to slap you in your face!"As Madeline said that, she fiercely threw a USB flash drive onto the face of the male reporter who had just said that."H-How can you hit someone?”"Oh, was there a person here? I thought I was just hitting a foul-mouthed, nasty stink bug!""...""This is the surveillance video I just got from the restaurant. It clearly recorded the situation when I was with Ryan at the time. Pick it up, watch it for yourself, and apologize to me publicly after. Otherwise, I’ll make sure that all of you will never get a job in this industry ever again!”"..."Madeline turned around after speaking what she wanted to say.Those people could not wait to get their hands on the USB flash drive to see what it contained. The video showed that when Madeline got up from her seat in the restaurant, she slipped on a pool of
She stared at the handsome figure not far away as she hurriedly pushed aside the crowd in front of her, working hard to get closer to that figure.If it was not for her being pregnant, Madeline would have run up to him.She could only walk steadily one step at a time, but that seemed to separate them even further."Jeremy."She shouted at the man from the back, her heart racing even more and more anxiously.She expected the man in the distance to look back, but he did not respond to her call.In the end, Madeline chased after him to the outside of the banquet hall, but after turning toward the long corridor in front of her, it was empty.The figure that had been in her line of sight just now disappeared without a trace as if it was just a phantom.Madeline stood blankly in the hallway, suddenly wondering if she had gotten mentally sick from missing him so much that she began to have hallucinations.She lowered her bleak eyes and smiled bitterly.‘Eveline, he has already left
The man frowned his beautiful eyebrows with discomfort. When Madeline gripped his hand with even more force, he forcefully broke away from her. His low magnetic voice was very cold."Are you trying to get my attention by acting this way? I’m not interested in pregnant women, so stop following me."When Madeline’s palm became empty again, her heart seemed to have followed suit and hollowed out.She could not believe that she was looking at the man who did not know her. It was clear that he was starting to dislike her. She was not sure whether she should be happy or even sadder.She should feel happy.After all, he was still alive.There was nothing more important for her than for him to be alive and living well.Madeline told herself so and caught up with him. "Jeremy Whitman, don't go."When he was stopped by Madeline again, unpleasant emotions appeared on the handsome man’s face. "If you pester me again, I’ll definitely make you regret it." He warned.Madeline looked at the c
Madeline's hand that wanted to give her another slap was tightly held in the air.She saw Lana smiling wickedly, but soon, she showed a sad look to Jeremy. "Hans, she hit me."When Lana said that, Madeline could clearly feel the strength of Jeremy's palms increasing.She furrowed her eyebrows in pain and wanted to recall the man's memory, but Jeremy's eyes merely looked down coldly at her.It had been a long time since she saw him look at her with such cruelty.At that moment, he was looking at her the same way.That showed that he had completely forgotten about her."You dare hit my woman? Are you trying to get yourself killed?” Jeremy tugged at Madeline's wrist.No matter how painful her hand felt, it did not hurt as much as the words he was saying at that moment.‘His woman.’Madeline choked down the urge to cry. Her eyes remained unyielding and sharp. "I’m the only one who’s your woman.”She stared at Jeremy's cold eyes. "Jeremy, you won't forget me forever. One day, you
However, the pain continued to come in waves. Madeline suddenly felt that everything in front of her eyes was slowly becoming hazy.Right at the moment when she was about to fall to the ground, she caught a black figure swiftly approaching her before steadily grabbing her…"Jeremy, Jeremy..."Madeline kept calling out to Jeremy's name unconsciously, and suddenly, she heard someone calling out to her with worry."Eveline, are you awake? Eveline."Madeline opened her eyes abruptly and saw Eloise looking at her anxiously.She looked around and realized that she was in a hospital."Eveline, thank God you’re okay." Eloise breathed a sigh of relief but was still worried. "Why did you suddenly faint? I was so worried that you had an accident."Madeline thought about what happened before she fainted and her heart started racing again. "I saw Jeremy.""W-What?!" Eloise was shocked and thought that she had heard her wrongly. "Eveline, did you just say that you saw Jeremy?""Yeah. I saw
