She spun around to leave when she noticed Ryan coming into the room.Ryan was astonished to witness Naomi naked while having fun with a group of men.Naomi saw Ryan and called out to him while still euphoric, "Hey Rye, come, let's have fun together…"Ryan was a man with an obsession for cleanliness. On any ordinary day, he would not even allow anyone to sit in his car. How could he endure such a situation where his fiancée was having such intimate sessions with a group of men?He fumbled about, feeling disgusted as he turned around to leave. Lana called out to him, "It's obvious that someone has drugged Naomi. Ryan, are you going to just leave and let the person who drugged her off the hook?""Drugged by others?" Ryan instantly came to a halt.Lana immediately put all the blame on Madeline. "It's only obvious she has been drugged. Do you think Naomi is being her usual self right now? Ryan, do you know who was with Naomi earlier? She must have consumed something that she wasn’t su
In the CCTV clip, it was shown that when Madeline took out a bottle of perfume from her purse, her keychain had dropped to the floor as well.Madeline had Naomi help her pick it up, and when Naomi bent down, Madeline made a gesture.In a split second, Madeline switched her glass of red wine with Naomi's. Then, she put on a friendly look and cheered Naomi to drink.However, Ryan did not believe that Madeline would do such a thing.Aside from him, nobody knew that Eveline used to be Madeline, and to him, Madeline had a unique existence."You've witnessed it right, Rye? It was Eveline who drugged me. If it wasn’t for her, why would she exchange the glass of wine with me?" Naomi started sobbing."I never thought that Eveline would be such a narrow-minded person. Earlier, all I did was give some suggestions for the design draft and she took it all to heart. She even used such an underhanded method to seek revenge. Rye, how am I supposed to face the crowd in the future?"On the other
Just when Madeline was carrying her baby up and about to kiss the baby, a few people came rushing into the scene.Madeline could not recognize Ryan's parents, but she spotted Naomi.Madeline let out a smirk at Naomi while her mind was flooded with images of the scene that occurred not long ago. "Miss Lionel is very motivated. I guess those who saw you on the screens will agree to it as well."Rage was buried deep in Naomi’s heart, yet her face revealed a sorrowful and infuriated expression. "Eveline, why did you frame me? Are there any benefits for you to gain by harming me and making me into this state?”"I framed you?" Madeline found it hilarious and handed her baby over to the nurse.The nurse carried the baby in their arms and quickly left the scene."Eveline, you're a precious daughter of an affluent family. Naomi is also a celebrity. With you harming her, how is she going to face the community in the future?!" Ryan's parents roared, defending Naomi."Look at you, you're so
A very strong voice had broken through the crowd.The voice astonished Madeline, and when she looked up, she was surprised to see Karen holding onto an insulation soup pot. She was pushing her way through the crowd to enter the ward, looking infuriated.Ryan's parents had bumped into Karen before at a few business gatherings and even exchanged conversations.In their memories, they only recalled that Karen used to hate Eveline as her daughter-in-law. 'Why is she protecting her now?'As Ryan's parents were deep in their thoughts, they let out a scornful smirk. "Karen, your daughter-in-law did such a thing to my daughter-in-law, yet you're still defending her?!"Karen glanced at Naomi with a critical gaze. "Why can't I defend my daughter-in-law when you guys are even willing to protect your daughter-in-law who’s so wild and shameless? My daughter-in-law is such a well-mannered lady and is far more prestigious than this woman right here!""You…" Naomi thought of throwing a temper, b
"I might as well tell you this. This recording, before it was in your hands, I had already asked the staff back at the restaurant. I wouldn't have displayed this recording if it wasn’t for you guys blaming me."Naomi, you started this first. You invited yourself into this mess.""Eveline, you…" Naomi was flushing out of anger. Unable to suppress the rage within her, Naomi raised her hand and was about to slap Madeline.However, just as she lifted her hand, Ryan's father bestowed her a tight slap across the face."You're one hell of a shameless lady. You've committed such a crime, yet you’re still putting on an innocent look. You misled us to accuse another innocent person. I'm telling you, I'll cancel the wedding between you and Ryan. The Joneses will never accept such a lady like you as our daughter-in-law!"Ryan's parents were apoplectic with rage as they announced their statement publicly and left the scene while feeling exasperated.Karen stopped them and said with a stern ex
Madeline noticed a dark outline in her peripheral vision. She realized that the outline turned out to be a man, and she quickly hid.However, while she was trying to hide, she noticed that the man was Jeremy.Jeremy locked the door behind him and sauntered to the bedside where Madeline was breastfeeding the baby.His elegant face was calm while his deep-seated eyes looked lifeless as he stared coldly at Madeline.Madeline no longer tried to avoid him and faced the man who was walking toward her, her ears suddenly getting warm.“What brings you here, Mr. Zimmerman?” Despite greeting him as such, Madeline knew it well that he was Jeremy Whitman.Jeremy looked at Madeline’s lips. “You’ve made my woman unhappy. So, I’m going to make you feel miserable as well.”Madeline was holding on dearly to the baby, gently squeezing the baby’s little finger. However, given the current situation, she could not take action rashly.The baby in her arms widened his eyes, earnestly drinking milk wi
Madeline was not bothered about the attitude Jeremy had while dealing with her but was bothered that from the beginning to the end, he had never looked at the baby at all.‘That’s his biological kid, yet he didn’t even bother glancing at him.‘People used to say one will have a sense for their biological kid, but to him, it seemed like he didn’t sense anything at all.“Jeremy, perhaps your heart now only contains that lady, Lana, right?”Madeline let out a smile helplessly and went back to the incubator. Staring at the baby who was sound asleep, she felt rather bitter yet comforted in her heart.On the next day, Madeline did not obey Jeremy’s order to head over to the villa.She would not believe Jeremy would lose all his humanity and harm her kid. However, when afternoon arrived, she left the ward for a moment and when she was back, a nurse approached her anxiously. “Earlier when I came in, I saw a man coming out from here. When I headed over to look at the young master, I notic
Jeremy was about to exert more strength, but after hearing Madeline’s comment, his grip loosened.He stared at her cloudy eyes, and he was eventually lost in his thoughtsRight then, Madeline’s tears fell on the back of his palm. The temperature of her tears seeped through his skin, traveling all the way to the bottom of his heart. The warm sensation made him snap out of it and return to reality.“Stop treating me as your dead husband,” said Jeremy coldly as he released his grip.“Cough, cough.” Madeline choked and gasped after she was released.His grip on her neck earlier was indeed painful, but it was nothing compared to the disappointment she felt from his cold and heartless orbs.Despite what she was going through, Madeline remained fearless. “The person who you care most about right now is Lana, am I right? If anything were to happen to my kid, I’ll make sure she pays the same price too!”Jeremy looked at Madeline’s sharp gaze with a look of disapproval on him and chuckled
