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
“Linnie…”“Stop calling my name. I don’t want to see you,” Madeline interrupted him and wiped away her tears.“I never blamed you for forgetting me. I know you only got hurt because you wanted to save me and that’s how Lana got the chance to manipulate you. However, it doesn’t excuse your lack of humanity that let you kill my parents!”“Jeremy, I don’t know how to face you anymore. When I see you, I’ll think of my dead parents, but I can’t avenge them. Do you understand how I feel?”Madeline took a deep breath and picked up the innocent baby from the sofa before leaving the lounge.Jeremy knelt on the ground, his brain replaying what Madeline’s words. At this moment, he felt as if a thousand knives were slicing through his heart.If possible, he really wanted to exchange his life with the lives of Eloise and Sean.He would do anything to repent just to make her feel better.‘But Linnie, you won’t give me another chance to repent and apologize anymore.’After Madeline left the
“Mrs. Whitman is a well-known jewelry designer in the jewelry business, so you should know something about painting, right? If you have time, why don’t we exchange tips?”Ryan had helped her before and was a polite gentleman, so Madeline did not reject him.On the other side, Lana barged back into her house.However, the moment she stepped inside, she received a heavy slap.Her brain went blank and she was dumbfounded.Then, she tasted blood in her mouth.Naomi who was close behind Lana saw this and started shivering.What the hell was going on today?She was going to watch Madeline make a fool of herself, so why did things become like this instead?Lana clutched her swollen face and yelled, “Yorick, are you insane? Why did you hit me again?”“Ask yourself what you’ve done just now.” Yorick’s face was dark as if he was hiding angry emotions. “I told you to stop stirring sh*t and go back to F Country to be a spoiled princess. Why did you have to go and provoke Eveline?”When
Gina, who was standing at the door, saw this scene and was about to walk in when she was stopped by her husband.“Stop causing more trouble. Do you really want your son to be a bachelor for the rest of his life?”“Who said I'm going to make trouble? I’m going to tell them that I agree to this marriage now, okay?”Her husband was startled. “You’re agreeing to this?”Gina was about to answer when out of the corners of her eyes, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the lights in the room. It was followed by cheers and applause from inside.Ava pulled herself out of Daniel's embrace. She was surprised to find Madeline and Jeremy, her parents, and even Tom and Maisie slowly approaching them with smiles on their faces.Ava stared blankly at Madeline. Then, she finally understood that they had all worked together to arrange this.Only she and Daniel’s parents were kept in the dark.Daniel had never thought of leaving her at all. He just used a different approach to let her know that she w
Upon hearing this, Gina slowly stopped.She never thought that Ava still had some respect for her in her heart.This really surprised her.However, she soon heard Madeline stand up for Ava. “Ava, you respect them, but have they ever respected you? Respect should be mutual.”“But Danny will always be their son. If Dan and I insist on getting married, his parents won’t be happy about it for the rest of their lives,” Ava said with a helpless sigh. “I really don't want Dan to be caught in the middle of this matter.”“But Ava…”“Maddie, don't persuade me. You should know best that when you truly love someone, you don't have to stay with them. As long as they’re safe, healthy, and happy, that's enough, isn't it?”There was a smile of relief on Ava's face as if she had already made a final decision in her heart.Madeline wanted to persuade her a little more, but nothing seemed appropriate at this moment.“Ava, are you leaving, then? Are you going to stop looking for him now?”“I've
Daniel's parents, who were secretly observing Ava in the distance, gradually became more and more restless in the car.“Hmph, how dare she say that she has a deep relationship with Dan? It's been so long and she still doesn't know where Dan has gone,” Gina rolled her eyes and complained.Daniel's father glanced at Gina. “Stop being so mean. Right now, the most important thing is to find Dan. Ava isn’t a bad person. In the beginning, you disliked her because she didn’t have parents, money, and power. Now, her parents are alive and well, her mother is extremely rich, and her father is a specialist doctor and professor. What else are you dissatisfied with? Do you really want your son to stay single his entire life?”Gina was not happy when her husband was complaining about her. “Didn't you object at the beginning as well? I agreed with the relationship after that, but your father refused to agree to save his reputation. Why are you blaming me now?”“Stop talking.” Daniel's father in
After Old Master Graham read Daniel's message, he was so angry that his eyes were wide open.‘He just got out of the hospital and he ran away for a woman?‘He even said that if he can't marry that woman, he won't get married in the future?’Old Master Graham would never allow such a thing to happen.However, when he thought about it, he still felt a little nervous.If Daniel really did not get married because of this, would this not be the end of the Graham family?‘I can’t let this happen.’After Ava ran out, she went to find Daniel in all the places she could think of. However, after spending the entire morning, she still could not find Daniel.She tried to call Daniel, and although the call was connected, it was always unanswered.As time passed, Ava felt very tired. She sat down on the chair by the roadside and watched the street where people came and went. Then, a deep sense of loss welled up from the bottom of her heart.‘Dan, have you decided to just give up?‘Are we
“I'll be right back!”Gina hurriedly ran back. Suddenly, she turned back and stopped Ava, who was about to follow her.“Don’t follow me! You’re not welcomed at our house.”Despite Gina's warning, Ava could not stop herself from looking for Daniel.She did not know what was going on. How could Daniel suddenly be discharged by himself? He had obviously been in a coma on the hospital bed. He did not wake up this whole time.On the way there, Ava called Daniel, but Daniel did not answer.Ava did not know if Daniel had his phone with him, but in short, she could not get into contact with him.She wanted so badly to stand in front of Daniel right now, but there was traffic on the way.When Ava followed Gina into the door of Graham Manor, she heard Gina's sharp voice. “What? Dan’s gone? Where did he go? D-Didn't he just wake up? What the hell is going on?”“Look at this and you'll know what's going on." Daniel's father sounded like he was reproaching someone, then he seemed to hand s
Ava stared at the empty ward for a while. Then, she returned to her senses and immediately went to look for Daniel.However, after looking around for a while, Ava could not find Daniel, which made her feel a little nervous.At this time, Gina also came in.She saw that the ward was empty, and Daniel, who was supposed to be lying on the hospital bed, had disappeared.“What’s going on? Where’s Dan? Did the doctor take Dan away?” Gina looked at Ava and asked with an unfriendly expression on her face.Ava was used to Gina's attitude, so she did not bother to argue with Gina. Instead, she replied, “I want to know as well.”“How could you not know? You came before me.”“Dan wasn't in the ward when I came,” Ava said and turned around. “I'll go to the nurse's station and ask.”“Wait.”Gina grabbed Ava, her face was dark.“Ava, let me tell you this. Dan has suffered a lot and gotten a lot of injuries because of you. Because of you, both Naya and her mother have been sent to prison. It
Since Julie was about to think that way, it showed that she was a reasonable person.“Lily.” Julie walked up to Lillian and squatted down, giving her a friendly blessing. “Lily, I really like you. I hope you can be happy every day, and I hope you’ll be able to speak soon.”Lillian was a sensible child. She raised a sweet smile and nodded vigorously, indicating that she acknowledged Julie's blessing.Julie stood up and faced Fabian. Right now, there was a little more admiration in her eyes and a little less of her unwilling persistence before.If one liked someone, one did not necessarily have to stubbornly fight for it.Julie did not say anything and just smiled at Fabian.Fabian did not say anything more either. He bent over and picked Lillian up in his arms. Before turning around, he gave Julie a friendly smile.“Miss Charles, you can still come to me if you need help in the future. After all, I still owe you a favor.”Julie smiled and shook her head. “You stopped owing me an
“I did,” Fabian admitted frankly.Julie thought she would feel embarrassed because of this, but she did not know why she still felt very relaxed. Even so, she still felt a little embarrassed.In order to not make Julie feel embarrassed, Fabian smiled and said, “I wanted to help you get out of that situation, Miss Charles, but I didn't want to cross the line. I also didn’t expect someone to have taken a video and put it on the internet. Lily and I have caused you much trouble. I'm really sorry about that.”Fabian paused as he spoke, then, he glanced at Lillian softly.“But Miss Charles, rest assured, there’ll be no such trouble in the future.”Julie was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and she inexplicably felt a strong sense of loss coming up from the bottom of her heart.She looked at Fabian suspiciously, and sure enough, the words she heard next made her feel remorseful.“Miss Charles, I’ve found a more suitable school for Lily, and it’s closer to where I work so
The scene of Mr. Martinez causing a ruckus and Fabian coming to the rescue with Lillian at the end was all recorded and posted on the internet.This person was still a little conscientious and had censored Lillian's appearance, but Fabian's figure and face were clearly visible in the video.Patty recognized the person in the video as Fabian at a glance.After seeing the comments below, Patty was even more anxious.“Julie, how could you fall in love with a single father?”Julie frowned. “Yes, I won't deny it. I do have a crush on Mr. Johnson.”“What?”“Tsk tsk… Julie, do you really like this single father?” The look in Mrs. Gill's eyes was very subtle. “Someone dug up all his information, and it turns out that this man is Yorick's younger brother. Back then, Yorick stirred up all kinds of troubles and did whatever he wanted in F Country. His sister, Lana, was also notorious in our circle.”“What? He's Yorick and Lana's younger brother?” Patty was even more nervous, for fear that
