This man was truly heartless.She let go of him, and there was confusion in her eyes.“If you’re not Jeremy, why did you kiss me?”“I did it because I wanted to. There’s no reason for it.” His answer was simple and straightforward.Madeline smiled. “So this is how you kiss Lana as well? Did you hold her to sleep every night for the past three months?”While looking into Madeline’s eyes, Jeremy suddenly saw the images she mentioned in her beautiful orbs.He saw himself holding a woman as they slept peacefully in the dead of night.He did not have that kind of serenity and peace for a very long time.However, he was very sure that he did not have any memories of holding Lana to sleep.Madeline pushed him away dispiritedly after she saw him staying quiet.She still had the image of him risking his life for her. However, he did not have proof of her existence in his heart anymore.After Madeline left, Jeremy finally came back to his senses after quite a while. He picked up the a
“Linnie!”Jeremy called out that word frantically as if it was a reflex.Before he could even think, he carried Madeline into the car and rushed her to the hospital.When he left, he saw the ambulance and fire truck that he called for just now passing him.Jeremy looked at the rear-view mirror. The maid who testified against him had already run away.Jeremy sent Madine to the hospital, and the doctor said she only fainted because she was too sad.Too sad?Jeremy understood why Madeline was sad.He looked at the unconscious woman and felt oddly worried.Jeremy was not used to what he was feeling for Madeline.He turned around to leave the room before involuntarily coming to the ward where Madeline’s youngest son was in.When he was at the door, he saw Karen with two adorable children around the ages of four and five. They were talking to the baby.“Granny, is this really my brother?” Lillian blinked and asked.Karen replied happily, “You little dummy, this is your and Jacki
“Mommy, what’s wrong?”“Mommy, you’re crying.”Madeline heard Karen’s concerned voice as well as the two children’s confused voices.Yet, Madeline continued to stare ahead blankly. Then, she parted her pale lips. “Why do I have to pay such a heavy price just to love him? Why…”Karen immediately knew that Madeline was talking about Jeremy.She started panicking. “Eveline, are you talking about Jeremy? What did Jeremy do?”Madeline bit her lip and said with tears streaming down her face, “He set fire to my house.”“What?” Karen was utterly shocked. “No way, Jeremy wouldn’t have done such a thing. Impossible…”Madeline closed her eyes. She also did not want to believe that Jeremy would do that.However, the strength he exerted when he grabbed her neck was still crystal clear.Madeline sobbed soundlessly. She was so heartbroken that it hurt to even breathe.She lifted off her blanket and got out of the bed before running out.She called a cab to go to Montgomery Manor. There, s
Jeremy furrowed his brows when he heard Madeline’s complaints.‘You not knowing me…’These four words weighed heavily in his heart.Madeline pushed him away forcefully after she looked at his nonchalant face. She still wanted to run into the house.Jeremy knew what Madeline was planning, so he pulled her back to him once again.“Let me go, Jeremy! Let go of me!” Madeline struggled with all her might but was completely under the man’s control. “Jeremy Whitman, you b*stard! Let go of me! My parents are still in there! They’re my birth parents!’Madeline yelled hysterically as her tears blurred her vision.However, Jeremy was unmoved. He only held her tightly in his arms.Madeline broke down once again. “Let go. Let me go. Jeremy, I’m begging you, please let me go!”She pleaded as she sobbed, “Do you know that this is the home I finally found after spending more than 20 years alone? You destroyed my house and you can’t even let me see them for one last time?“Jeremy, will you on
“No, Maddie, it’s not your fault. Don’t blame yourself. If Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery know about this, they won’t want you to blame yourself too.”Ava’s comforting words caused Madeline to cry even harder.She escaped from Ava’s arms and got out of bed quickly.“Maddie, where are you going?”“Dad, Mom... I have to see my mom and dad!” Madeline ran out of the room, asking everyone she saw in the long hallway, “Have you seen my mom and dad?”Ava followed behind her. When she saw Madeline in this state, her vision was instantly blurred by her tears.“Maddie!”She chased up to her and grabbed her as her heart shattered into pieces.“Maddie, don’t do this.”However, Madeline ignored her and continued walking forward. Whenever she saw someone, she would ask them about Eloise and Sean.After Daniel heard what happened to Madeline’s home, he rushed over quickly. However, the moment he stepped out of the elevator, he saw Madeline walking over with tears streaming down her pale face.She
After Madeline heard that, she turned her head slightly to look at the man who was approaching her. “Get out.” She kicked him out in a cold voice.Jeremy ignored her and continued to approach her.“Get out! You’re not worthy of standing in front of my parents! Get lost!” Madeline’s voice became stern.However, Jeremy still ignored her and stood behind Madeline. “If you don’t want an even bigger tragedy to happen, apologize to Lana with me right now. Tell her you were wrong for slapping her.”“Heh.” Madeline felt like she had just heard a colossal joke. She stood up slowly and looked at the frigid man. Then, her gaze turned sharp before she lifted her hand to slap him across his face.“Jeremy, listen to me. Not only do I want to slap her, but I want to slap you too!“Do you think you’re all that just because you’ve lost your memories? Do you think you can murder people, commit arson, obliterate your humanity, and kill my parents just because you’ve lost your memories?”She grabbe
“Hahaha…”After Karen said that, a woman’s pleased laughter came from the door.Lana was wearing a sexy red dress as she strutted inside while smoking a cigarette.“Lana!” Karen was infuriated. “You’re just in time, you succubus! You caused my son to lose his memories, my daughter-in-law to deliver her baby prematurely, and killed my in-laws! I’m going to kill you!”Karen grabbed a broom and swung it violently at Lana.“Stop.”Jeremy appeared in time to stop her.“Don’t you dare touch her.”Karen stopped the broom mid-air and looked at the man walking toward her. Then, she put down the broom angrily.“Jeremy, why won’t you wake up? She caused your wife to deliver her baby prematurely and used you to kill your in-laws! How can you still defend her?”Karen berated, only for Jeremy to say nonchalantly, “When did I kill my in-laws? I’m not Jeremy.”“You…” Karen was so angry that she was speechless.Old Master Whitman walked in front of Jeremy with his cane and looked at his fac
Lana’s face fell. “Eveline, is this your son?”Madeline quickly pulled Jackson behind her as she was scared that Lana would take action against him. “Jack, go back and stay with Lily. Don’t come out.”Jackson frowned. “But Mommy…”“Listen to me. Go in now.”“Okay.” Jackson nodded and looked at Jeremy who had his eyes on him. “Daddy, when are you coming home? Lily and I miss you,” the little guy added before looking at Jeremy reluctantly and going back.Jeremy looked blankly at the little boy who left. Suddenly, he felt dispirited for no reason.However, his gaze went back to Madeline almost instantly.It was evident that she had cried before. However, since she was born beautiful, she was still stunning even though she was not in the best state.Lana did not notice Jeremy staring at Madeline and only fixed her hair in agitation.“Eveline, your son is just like you. Both of you just love looking for trouble and asking for death!”Her statement was filled with hints and warning
