Meredith nodded sincerely. "Jeremy, no matter what you ask, I’ll answer you truthfully.""Okay." Jeremy's deep, black eyes were fixed on Meredith. "Did you really see the b*stard Tanner and Madeline together?""Yes! I really saw them with my own eyes!" Meredith answered without thinking.Jeremy's black eyes gradually sank and there was a chill in those bottomless eyes.Sensing that the surrounding airflow had suddenly become abnormally heavy, Meredith panicked, but she still insisted. "Jeremy, what I’ve said is all true! Jeremy, you have to believe me...""Believe you..."Jeremy repeated these two words as a mocking tint surged in his eyes."She spoke to me the same way back then, wanting me to believe her.""What?" Meredith looked at the unsmiling Jeremy. "Jeremy..."He parted his thin lips slightly. "I've already given you the chance." After saying this, he turned around coldly.The underlying meaning of this was obviously that he did not believe her!Meredith did not care

"Jeremy! Jeremy, you have to believe me! You can't condemn me for that madman Tanner's nonsense! Have you forgotten the days when we were at the beach? You said that I was the most innocent and kindest girl you’ve ever met! You said that you’d always be with me and make me your bride, that you would protect me and trust me forever. Jeremy, Jeremy, Jeremy!"Meredith did not think that Jeremy would ignore her up until this point.Seeing the sports car zipping away, Meredith stamped her feet in anger."Madeline, you b*tch! Why couldn’t you just die in peace?!"She turned around angrily and entered the villa. Seeing Jackson who was carrying his school bag and heading out, Meredith stepped forward while sending the servant to go buy vegetables. This left only her and Jackson in the house.Jackson looked at Meredith, his beautiful black eyes filled with defensiveness and repulsion. His little hand was gripping the shoulder strap of his school bag.The more she looked at him, the more h

Madeline stared at the deep, sea-like eyes in front of her with curiosity. "What's the matter?""I hope that you can help me find out the truth,” Jeremy said the words softly, his deep eyes pleading with anticipation.After Madeline quietly listened to what Jeremy wanted her to help him with, she was surprised.She thought for a moment before nodding."Okay, I’ll help you.""Thank you." Jeremy thanked her.At this moment, Madeline vaguely saw a faint smile in Jeremy's eyes, but it was fleeting. Madeline never thought that she could be herself again.Jeremy took her to the beauty salon. Madeline saw that Jeremy had shown a photo to the stylist, and the stylist nodded to express their understanding.Madeline did not know what photo Jeremy showed the stylist, but she saw herself in the mirror an hour later.Her long, dark, and smooth hair set off her clean and elegant face, giving her the illusion of having come from worlds away.Afterward, Jeremy took Madeline to the villa.Loo

It was still not her."That's good." Madeline smiled, satisfied. "I heard that Mr. Whitman hates Madeline very much. She has been dead for three years. Why do you still keep her old clothes in your room? "Jeremy locked his gaze on Madeline's face when he heard these words. "How do you know that these are my ex-wife's clothes?"Madeline smiled calmly. "This is a very simple guess, isn't it?"Hearing this rhetorical question, Jeremy smiled. "That's right."At the same time, Meredith contacted Tanner who had just come out of the hospital.Tanner had not gained anything last night, having been scared to death by the sudden appearance of a ‘ghost’. He was also severely beaten by Jeremy until he lost a tooth. He had simply suffered double the loss.He came out of the hospital as soon as he heard that tooth fillings cost tens of thousands of dollars.Where was he to get so much money as a quack? When he received a call from Meredith, he felt as if an opportunity had come.Meredith w

Seeing Tanner charge over, Madeline thought of the atrocities he had done to her.After a flash of a moment, when she had finally reacted to counterattack, a gust of wind roared from behind her all of a sudden.Jeremy's warm palms held onto her shoulders tightly, bringing her to the side.Madeline was instantly surrounded by a familiar yet unfamiliar warm breath. Before she could see clearly, she saw Tanner swiping the air before hitting the tree. It was followed by Jeremy's right hand twisting him around.Tanner suddenly screamed, "Ow, ow!" However, Jeremy did not let up. He lifted his foot to Tanner's knee and kicked him viciously, forcing Tanner to kneel down before kicking him away.Madeline thought that Jeremy wanted to continue to teach Tanner a lesson, but he suddenly hugged her tightly, worried."Don't be afraid, I’m here. I won’t let anyone bully you again."His gentle voice slipped into her ears like water in the night. It was so unbelievably gentle, carrying a trace o

The person who looked for Tanner must have been Meredith.Madeline knew it very well, but she did not think Jeremy did.He had always believed in Meredith blindly.It was also because he had indulged Meredith again and again that it brought her such deep pain previously.However, if he really wanted to cover for Meredith, why did he take the extra effort to ask Madeline to pretend to be who she was back then to worm facts out of Tanner?Madeline thought that Jeremy would leave right away, but she did not expect him to follow her to the door of her apartment.“Can I go in and sit for a while?” Jeremy parted his lips lightly, requesting.It was already late at night. Madeline wanted to refuse, but she glanced at his bleeding hand and decided to open the door to let him in. “Come in.”She did not think she was feeling sorry for him. She just wanted to get some information from him.Madeline brought out the medical kit. Seeing the man sitting impassively on the sofa, she walked in

As Madeline’s voice fell, Jeremy’s embrace then became empty.A sense of endless loneliness occupied his heart for a moment. He seemed to have just gotten back from getting lost.Looking at the face in front of him, Jeremy realized that he had lost his cool just now.He had even shown her that depressed and gloomy side of his that no one knew. Moreover, he had craved for her hug so much, even longed for her to feel sorry for him and hug him tight…This was something that had never happened before.Yet he knew that he was only like this all because of this face.This face that was almost identical to hers back then.“Didn’t you say you’d arrive tomorrow? Why are you back so sudden?” Madeline brought Jeremy back to his sense with her somewhat cheerful voice.Only then did he realize something and remembered what she had just said. ‘My fiancé is here.’Fiancé?“Is there a guest home?” A man’s voice was heard.Jeremy frowned. Although this voice was not particularly familiar, it

Madeline shook her head. “I still didn’t handle it well enough. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be suspecting me again and again for being his damned ex-wife.”Madeline carried bitterness in her emotions when she said the last two words, but she quickly smiled at Felipe faintly.“Don’t worry about me. I’m no longer the silly and stupid Madeline Crawford. I won’t disappoint you with the chance of rebirth that you’ve given me.”Felipe curled the edge of his lips and smiled. There was a touch of mystery in those bright and deep eyes.Madeline helped him to take off the coat that had been dampened by rainwater and got him new toiletries.He took a shower and put on a white bathrobe, wiping a few strands of his wet hair with a dry towel.He entered Madeline’s room naturally. Seeing the cutie asleep on the bed, Felipe bent down slowly and dropped a loving kiss on Lily’s cheek.“Felipe, I’ve cleaned up the room.” Madeline entered the room softly.Felipe turned and walked toward her. “I’ll be g

In the crowd, there was suddenly an overly familiar voice that came from nowhere.Madeline’s heart was in her mouth all of a sudden and her heartbeat also increased. Yet, her face revealed no reaction. She walked toward Jeremy without even a single ripple.“Mr. Whitman, did you deliberately bring me here for breakfast?” She smiled, the morning rays after the rain falling on her immaculate and delicate face, shining beautifully.Jeremy seemingly glanced in a certain direction, then nodded. “Won’t my future aunt-in-law show deference in a public setting? Or are you worried that Uncle Felipe will be jealous?”“Why would Felipe be jealous because of such a thing?” Madeline smiled calmly, but her heartbeat was erratic.She could still hear that familiar voice calling out ‘Maddie’ again and again.That voice, accompanied by rapid footsteps, got closer and closer.However, she just calmly followed Jeremy’s footsteps to the breakfast shop.“Maddie!”At last, just when Madeline was abo

Jeremy sneered lowly, his slender, dewy eyes looking at Madeline’s elegant back. “You really think she’s Madeline?”“Nonsense! Of course, she’s Maddie!” Ava affirmed without a doubt. “Jeremy, I’m telling you, don’t think about hurting Maddie anymore. If Maddie gets hurt again, I’ll fight you tooth and nail this time!”Hearing Ava’s warning, Jeremy suddenly curled his lips in self-mockery.A friend who would fight tooth and nail for her.However, what about this husband?Jeremy did not say anything. He then got into the car and started the engine.Madeline was seated in the car. She caught a glimpse of Ava’s dejected figure in her peripheral vision. She gradually became smaller and smaller in the rear-view mirror, and her heart hurt more and more.‘I’m sorry, Ava.‘Now is not the time to acknowledge you.‘I’ll offer you a humble apology after I take my revenge.’Madeline recollected her attention. When the car passed by an intersection, she requested. “Stop the car.”Jeremy l
