When she heard him call her Linnie, it was like a beautiful sound that fell into Madeline's heart.She looked up in surprise and saw Jeremy smiling at her."Don't be late." He reminded her again, his tone sounding even more gentle.Madeline felt as if she was hallucinating again, but Jeremy's smile felt so real.When she snapped out of it, Jeremy had already driven away in his car."Eveline, what's going on?" Eloise was surprised and shocked. "What did he tell you just now?""I'm going to April Hill tonight," Madeline whispered and looked in the direction where Jeremy left. Speculations arose in her heart.âLinnie.âWhen Madeline recalled how gently he had called out her name just now, her eyes lit up with expectations once more.âJeremy, do you finally remember me, or have you never forgotten?âWith doubts still in her heart, Madeline asked Ken to drive her to April Hill.Madeline arrived early. Even though it was in the middle of summer, there were no tourists on the beach
"I want to feel you more than I want to feel the child.""What?"Madeline did not understand, but the next second, Jeremy's palm held her face.The temperature of his palm gave warmth to her cheeks.Before Madeline could react, the man in front of her suddenly kissed her.She could tell that something was wrong, but the manâs gentle kisses gradually caused her to lose her reasoning skills.Jeremy opened his eyes slightly and looked at Madeline who had her eyes closed. She was drowned in his deep kiss. He, too, slowly closed his eyes...Madeline did not know how much time had passed when Jeremy let her go.She gasped for air, her cheeks feeling feverishly hot.They were married and had three kids, but Madeline always felt passive in that regard.She calmed her crazy heartbeat and was about to speak when she heard Jeremy say coldly, "I'm going back.""Are you going back to Lana?" Madeline's eyes darkened a little.Jeremy did not look at her. He just turned around and said, "I
When Winston saw that Madeline was admitting it, he looked at her in shock.Karen felt even more irritated. "Eveline, are you not ashamed of yourself? It has only been a short time since Jeremy passed away and youâve already found a new love? How can you be so immoral and do such things with another man? Youâ""Can you just listen to me?" Madeline interrupted Karen, saying, "Look carefully and youâll see that the man in the photo is Jeremy. Heâs still alive.""What?!""What?!"Winston stood up abruptly, as shocked as Karen was."Can't you even recognize Jeremy from his back?" Madeline handed over the photo.Even though it was only his back, Madeline had always been able to tell that it was him.When Karen glanced at it, she crushed the photo into a ball and threw it at Madelineâs feet. âDo you think that getting a man who is about the same size as Jeremy will allow you to slip through so easily? You said this is Jeremy, right? Fine, if you can get Jeremy to come over right now,
She got out of the car and walked to the entrance of the kindergarten. She noticed that some young parents were whispering and pointing at her.Madeline ignored the gossiping and stared at the door intently. It took a while for Lillianâs silly little face to appear."Lillian, where's your brother?" Madeline asked and looked behind her.Lillian batted her big eyes. "Jack said he wanted to go potty, but itâs been a long time and he still hasnât come back yet.âMadeline's heart sank when she heard that. She immediately thought of Lana.Just then, she got a phone call from Lana. âEveline, are you worried because you can't find your son?""Lana, where did you take my son to?!"When Lana heard how anxious Madeline sounded, she just laughed and hung up.Madeline thought that perhaps she had underestimated Lanaâs cruelty.She expected that Lana would ruin her reputation, but she did not expect her to attack the people she cared about the most.Madeline tried calling her back, but Lan
When Jeremy saw Karen who was in shock, he assumed that Karen thought that he was the man named Jeremy.When Karen saw that Jeremy was safe and sound, her eyes turned red. After all, it was her own son. "Jeremy! Jeremy, itâs really you! It turns out that youâre still alive!"Karen got emotional and started to run toward Jeremy.Madeline grabbed Karen in a hurry. "Please, leave this place."She tried to persuade her, but Karen threw away Madeline's hand in dissatisfaction. "Eveline, what game are you playing? Jeremy is alive and well, why are you hiding him here? And why are you forbidding me to see my son?!"Madeline did not know how to explain it to Karen. Karen had always been pretty unreasonable and she was still the same.Jeremy had no patience for all that was happening and continued coldly, "Since she wants to come, then she can.âWhen Karen heard that, she hurried to Jeremy's side. "Jeremy, Jeremy, let me take a good look at you. You..."She tried to touch Jeremy's face,
Karen was so scared that she hurriedly blocked her face with her hands, and the blade brushed across the back of her hand, drawing blood from the cut."Ah!" Karen screamed in pain. She was shocked by Lana's fierce methods. "You, youâ""Hmph." Lana sneered and looked at Madeline. "Eveline, what do you think? You hate your mother-in-law, right? I'm helping you to teach her a lesson. Donât you feel great?âKaren looked at the bleeding wound. When she heard those words, she poured her anger onto Madeline. "Eveline, is this your doing? This woman is clearly targeting you! Jeremy is only this way because of you! Iâm hurt right now because of you! You jinx!â"Tsk, tsk, tsk. What an annoying pair of lips." Lana waved the sharp knife in her hand impatiently. "Eveline, since sheâs so annoying, let me give you a hand and shut her mouth forever."When Karen heard that, her face instantly turned pale with fright.She wanted to escape but was grabbed by two bodyguards."Let go of me! Let go o
Karen looked at the space by Madelineâs feet in a panic.It was the middle of summer and Madeline was wearing a dress. There was a pool of liquid at her feet.It was her amniotic fluid!If her water had broken and she was not sent to the hospital in time, the fetus might suffocate in her womb.Karen did not know how far along Madeline was in her pregnancy, but she was sure that it was not anywhere close to the due date yet. "E-Eveline! How far along the pregnancy are you?âMadeline breathed hard. "Exactly 30 weeks.""What?! Only 30 weeks?!"If she was 30 weeks pregnant, it meant that she was about two months away from her due date!Karen panicked and did not know what to do. When she saw Jeremy standing by the side and not doing anything, she shouted anxiously, "Jeremy, what's the matter with you? Are you just going to stand there and watch while your wife is in trouble?!â"Wife?" Jeremy chuckled and watched Madeline's face grow paler. He turned around dismissively.His indif
Madeline used her peripheral view to glance at the man who did not even want to look at her. "I donât have any other choice."She stopped looking at him and swallowed her tears into her belly.Karen did not know what else to do either, so she helped Madeline lay down slowly on the sofa.When Karen saw that there were two other bodyguards in the living room, Karen drove them out angrily. "Get out! Get out! All of you!"She looked at the man who was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at his phone."Jeremy, even if you don't recognize Eveline, are you really that cold-blooded to ignore her in her current situation? Will you ignore a personâs life and her unborn child?âJeremy furrowed his eyebrows, and when he turned around, he was obviously very unhappy.He was about to warn Karen when he caught a glimpse of Madeline who was lying on the sofa, sweaty and pale.For some peculiar reason, Jeremy suddenly felt a piercing pain in his heart.He glanced at the two bodygua
