When Madeline felt herself being carried, she was shocked. However, in the next second, she pushed him away.“Heh, Linnie? What are you playing at, Mr. Zimmerman?” Madeline scoffed. “Are you here to watch me make a fool of myself because you know I’m blind?”She laughed and asked. Even though she could not see, she was standing tall and did not cower nor show a hint of fear.“Lana, listen, even if I’m blind, I won’t allow you to have your way with me. I cried so much these days because of you, and I’ll make you pay double for it!”Looking at the weak yet tough woman in front of him, Jeremy suppressed the pain in his heart and slowly walked in front of her.“Linnie, I remember.”When he said this, his gentle and deep voice traveled into Madeline’s ears softly.It felt as if everything was frozen in time as the ward fell silent.Madeline was stumped. Then, she heard the familiar voice repeating those words.“Linnie, I remember everything.”Madeline’s clear eyes that had lost th
It had been so many years, and as his mother, this was the first time she saw her son cry.“Jeremy, you…”“Mom, can you please take Pudding out? I have something to say to this guy.” Madeline controlled her emotions and handed Pudding to Karen.Even though Karen had a lot of questions, she obliged and took Pudding out.There were only the two of them in the room right now, and the silence was deafening.Madeline walked to the side of the bed and took out some documents from under her pillow to hand them to Jeremy.“Sign this. I’m divorcing you.”Jeremy looked at the papers Madeline was handing him and felt as if his heart was being sliced by a million knives.He sobbed soundlessly and did not take the papers. On the contrary, he knelt in front of her again.Looking at her haggard face, he felt so much pain in his heart that he could not breathe. “Linnie…”“Don’t call me Linnie anymore. I’m not worthy of it.”Madeline rejected coldly. She was forcing out a smile, but tears st
When Jeremy heard what Lana told him in excitement, his eyes became colder.Good news?Madeline was blind, and to Lana, it was good news.He recalled how Lana filled him up with fake memories during the three months he lost his memories, his eyes turning icy.Lana did not notice Jeremy’s change in behavior. Instead, she laughed happily and said, “Hmph, I didn’t even do anything and she’s blind. Haha! I think I have to give her a proper visit this time.”Jeremy glanced at her. “What do you want to do with her?”Lana heard that and started pondering. Then, she lit up a cigarette. “Um…”“Lana, your chance is here.” Naomi looked at the message excitedly and reported, “The 52nd anniversary of Whitman Corporation is coming soon and Eveline will definitely show up.”Lana narrowed her eyes and started plotting.After a while, she licked her red lips while smirking slyly. “What a good opportunity.”She smirked and walked in front of Jeremy. Then, she simpered, “Hans, it’s up to you no
He had heard about Madeline’s vision loss and wanted to check up on her, but he did not have a valid reason to.When Ryan was about to go backstage to look for Madeline, Lana and Naomi appeared.Lana had spent money to buy an invitation for the event. She smirked cockily as she strutted into the hall.Everyone was looking over at her, but their focus was not on her. Instead, their eyes were on Jeremy who was behind her.“It’s really Mr. Whitman.”“No way! Three months ago, didn’t he… What’s going on?”“Yeah, how strange. I even went to offer my condolences at Whitman Manor. They confirmed that he was indeed dead.”“I went as well. When I was there, Karen even screamed at Eveline saying she was a bringer of bad luck. She also said that Eveline was the one who killed her son.”“What’s going on?”Everyone was puzzled when they noticed Jeremy arriving with Lana.However, they did not know Lana. They only felt that this woman was not someone ordinary.When Ryan saw Lana, his eyes
The box fell and landed next to Madeline’s feet.Lana frowned pretentiously and said aggrievedly, “Mrs. Whitman, what’s the meaning of this? I have an invitation to come here as a guest. As a guest, I’m giving you a gift, so why are you not accepting it?”Naomi looked at the calm and unperturbed Madeline while sniggering. Then, she displayed a shocked look on her face. “Ah, Lana, haven’t you noticed? I don’t think Mrs. Whitman can see.”“She can’t see?” Lana pretended to be confused and started looking at Madeline from head to toe. “Mrs. Whitman, what’s wrong with your eyes? Why are you blind?”When Lana said this, a collective gasp sounded from around them.“What? Eveline is blind?”“No way!”“Did she go blind from crying so much over her parents’ death?”“Poor girl. However, how is she going to manage Whitman Corporation now that she’s blind? Will it affect our business collaboration?”“This is all hard to say.”Lana was pleased with herself after she successfully stirred u
Madeline smiled softly and pressed down on a mini remote in her hand. “Then, let’s all see what Miss Johnson will look like when she kneels and apologize.”After Madeline said that, the lights dimmed. The scene of Lana kneeling and apologizing to Madeline appeared on the LED screen in front of everyone.Even though Lana was reluctant at that moment, she did say ‘Eveline, I’m sorry.’When Naomi saw this, she was stunned. “Lana, w-why did you…”“Eveline!” Lana exploded. “Eveline, you took a video of me!”Madeline turned on the lights and smiled. “Of course. I did it by using the hidden camera on my brooch. I captured your sorry face when you apologized to me,” she admitted magnanimously. “This is Miss Lana Johnson who struts around tyrannizing everyone, but from the looks of it now, she’s nothing.”“You…” Lana was seething.She lifted her hand to slap Madeline when Madeline took a glass of red wine from the table and splashed it straight onto her face.Lana froze immediately, her
Lana was confused. She felt as if nothing was going according to her plan tonight.It was fine that she was outsmarted by Madeline, but what was going on with Jeremy?Lana did not understand and was furious. “Hans, what’s wrong? Why did you hit me?”Jeremy’s gaze was like daggers. “You’re causing trouble during the anniversary of my company and even brought such a shameless woman to cause trouble for my wife. If I don’t hit you, then my name isn’t Jeremy Whitman.”“W-What?” Lana was dumbfounded once again.Jeremy Whitman!He called himself Jeremy Whitman!He said Madeline was his wife!Did he get his memories back?When did this happen? Why had she not realized this?Lana looked on in disbelief as the man’s eyes became colder and colder. However, she still smiled cockily. “Hans, don’t joke about things like this. The person you need to hit is Eveline Montgomery! I’m the love of your life.”“Do you think you’re worthy of being my woman?” Jeremy said mercilessly, “You brainwas
Karen sighed. “She’s in the lounge. I think she’s feeding the baby now.”Jeremy turned around quickly after he got his answer and ran toward the lounge.When he saw a breastfeeding sign on the door, he walked up to it and lifted his hand.He wanted to knock, but he hesitated.After a while, he finally knocked.Then, Madeline’s voice came from inside. “Mom, is that you? Come in.”Jeremy knew Madeline was mistaking him for Karen, but he decided to just go along with it and went inside.Madeline was not breastfeeding, but instead, she had her back toward him as she squatted next to the sofa. She looked like she was changing the baby.“Mom, can you get the wet wipes for me? It’s in my bag.”Madeline did not see who came in. Her attention was on the child who had just made a mess in his diaper.When Jeremy approached her and handed her the wet wipes, she finally sensed that something was amiss.She looked at the man in front of her as her gentle gaze immediately turned sharp.Sh
