Meredith threw herself into Jeremy's arms in terror, vividly creating the image of the victim.She had played the same old trick but still, he believed it without suspicion.Everyone had cast their disdainful and doubtful gazes on Madeline. Madeline had long been accustomed to these looks, but she still could not get used to the murderous and cold look Jeremy was giving her.In her mind, it was a face that she loved deeply. Yet, it no longer held the gentleness it once had.At this moment, as Jeremy was holding Meredith, his cold, blade-like eyes pierced Madeline,."Ma. De. Line!"He gritted his teeth as he spat out these three syllables, each with an engulfing force!Madeline felt a chill travel from the soles of her feet through her whole body. It was horrifying.Meredith who at this time was leaning into Jeremy’s arms was crying nonstop. “Jeremy, how could Madeline be so cruel? She told me that she herself had been pregnant with a child, but the child had died during her impri
Madeline was forced to shut her mouth. She glanced out the window. The sky was overcast as if it was going to rain.Looking at the sections of road that seemed to be gradually familiar, Madeline's nerves slowly tightened.The car stopped. Jeremy got out of the car freely while Madeline was dragged out of the car.Looking at the surrounding environment, Madeline’s eyes widen in disbelief."Jeremy, why did you bring me here!"She asked facing Jeremy's back, but the man ignored her.Madeline had been dragged to the grave she had built for her grandfather and the dead child. She no longer had the strength to stand, and the bodyguard had pushed her toward the grave.Madeline fell to the ground, clutching where the tumor was. She took a deep breath, enduring the pain, and then she raised her eyes.Jeremy stood in front of her, noble and cold, his aura was inviolable and cold."Why, here?" Madeline asked, gritting her teeth, her vision was being gradually blurred by the fog.Jeremy l
Madeline snapped instantly like a puppet without strings, losing all consciousness.Her world seemed to have turned dark all of a sudden and the intense pain like her skin was peeling swallowed her consciousness entirely."No!"She desperately rushed towards the ashes that were gradually washed away by snow and rain.Madeline cried sorrowfully, her trembling hands desperately rubbing against the uneven ground as she tried to collect the remaining ashes.However, the ashes were gradually stained red from the blood flowing out of her palms, and then it melted away in the rain and snow.Just like that, her only glimmer of hope was completely extinguished.She cried and laughed miserably, her red and wet eyes staring at Jeremy.She did not recognize him anymore.No, she never knew him.Madeline gritted her teeth and looked at the unwavering man, her eyes were extremely sharp."Jeremy, you will regret this!"Seeing Madeline's hateful gaze at this moment, Jeremy chuckled coldly.
Hearing every word uttered from Madeline's lips, Jeremy frowned, his heartbeat becoming very irregular all of a sudden."Jeremy, if you don't kill me today, I will definitely kill you and avenge my child."Her clear eyes were as decisive as before.Jeremy smiled nonchalantly. "I'll be waiting."He stood up as he said it and then left just like that.After watching that black figure disappearing gradually from her gaze, Madeline instantly seemed to have been drained of all her strength and blood as she leaned limply on her grandfather's urn.Warm tears once again overflowing but her heart was already numbed with pain.However, it was not over as Meredith had suddenly appeared.Meredith was holding a fruit knife when she saw Madeline lying on the ground while holding onto the urn. Meredith walked toward Madeline and then crouched down, reaching out to pull up her short hair."Tsk tsk, I told you not to go against me. Are you afraid now?"Madeline sneered, no longer wanting to w
When Madeline said that, the expressions of those colleagues, including Elizabeth, changed. They were looking at Madeline as if they were looking at something unusual."This woman, aren’t you too vicious!" Several female colleagues said contemptuously."What kind of bad luck does Meredith have to encounter such a nutjob. She’s always targeting her everywhere.""Exactly. Not only you’ve stolen someone else’s boyfriend, you still went and troubled Meredith, even saying that you’d want to kill her. That’s really sick!""We should stay away from her, lest she goes crazy and implicates us."Madeline sat in her seat silently, listening to the words being deliberately said to her.She did not speak and just stood up.Seeing her move, the female colleagues who had been speaking the truths and lies about her hurriedly ran away, for fear of what Madeline would do to them.Madeline found the scene funny. Then, she headed out.She went to Felipe and seeing that Madeline had come, Felipe g
Madeline was trembling in the wind and her blood seemed to be frozen.She returned to her residence hurriedly, packed some clothes and daily necessities, and moved away overnight.She no longer had the courage to face this man who was more terrifying than the devil. She was not afraid of death, but she was really afraid of the cruel methods he has shown time and time again. She never wanted to see him treat the people she loved cruelly in front of her again.Looking at herself in the mirror, Madeline touched the faint, tingling scar and closed her eyes.Jeremy, how could loving you brought such a result.........As the new year approaches, many companies would hold annual meetings at this time.Although Felipe had insisted that Madeline be his plus one to attend the annual meeting, Madeline still refused in the end.After the dinner party, Madeline went to a karaoke bar with some people from the department.The room was large and everyone had gathered together to drink and pla
Madeline's hand shook violently and the key in her hand dropped on her feet with a clang.The wounds in and out of her body seemed to have suddenly “woken up” at this moment and the insurmountable skin cutting pain once again invaded her entire body. It hurt so much that she was losing grip on her mind and only the image of him smashing the urn with the ashes of their child by how own hands the other day was left in her mind.The voice-controlled lights went out and Madeline's world had also seemed to have suddenly gone dark."Madeline, I'm talking to you,” came Jeremy's domineering voice coldly.Madeline shuddered reflexively. When Jeremy grabbed her wrist, she looked like a hedgehog that had been stripped of its spines. After bouncing off in horror, she suddenly knelt down by his feet, smashing her head desperately."Mr. Whitman, it's my fault! It's all my fault! I shouldn't have fallen in love with you and I shouldn't provoke Meredith!"Jeremy, I know I was wrong, please don't
She ran into the street without turning back. A piece of glacier had melted in her heart and black icy water had flooded her world.She did not have the courage to face Jeremy again. His cruel methods of time and time again had made it so that her already devastated body and mind were no longer able to bear it.At this moment, she just wanted to escape.Even wanting to escape forever.Suddenly, fine rain floated down the sky.Madeline ran toward the zebra crossing in a daze, wanting to go over to the opposite street. A car was speeding in her direction. It was not slowing down.Sensing the coming bright car lights, Madeline suddenly stopped and stood motionless in the middle of the zebra crossing.Looking at this bustling street and watching the street lights lining it, she burst into tears.If she could, she really wanted to restart her life...Madeline closed her eyes and a harsh horn sounded out. Right at this critical moment, Madeline suddenly felt a strong and powerful ar
