Yvette looked into Felipe's eyes and smiled brightly. "Is this how you strike up a conversation with a girl? I don't think we’ve ever met each other because I’ve never been to Glendale before becoming Jeremy's girlfriend.”As she said, she moved closer to Jeremy's arm more intimately.Jeremy smiled and gently took Yvette's hand. The two of them looked very warm and sweet.Madeline turned around because she did not want to see the two of them getting lovey-dovey.Felipe glanced past Yvette and propped up the umbrella as he walked in with Madeline.When Karen heard footsteps, she thought that it was Jeremy bringing his girlfriend back, but when she looked up, she saw Madeline and Felipe walking side by side.The smile on her face disappeared in an instant. "Tsk, a rare visitor."Karen continued to mock, saying, "One is the uncle who wants to destroy Jeremy while the other is the fake ex-wife who wants to take her revenge on Jeremy! Pfft! Come on, tell me what the two of you are he

"What? You’re pregnant?" Karen looked at Madeline in amazement as her gaze gradually turned contemptuous. "Wow, Miss Montgomery, you really are amazing. After your baby is born, I wonder how I should call it.”"It doesn't matter what you call it. I’m the mother and I’ll teach it. It has nothing to do with you." Madeline was calm.Karen sneered and chuckled. "Eveline, you really are—""Eat your dinner," Jeremy interrupted in a cold voice and looked at Madeline. "Since you’re now pregnant, Aunty Eveline, please take care of your body,” he said and placed a piece of ribs on her plate. "I remember you used to like eating this.""Thank you, Mr. Whitman, but I don't like it anymore. You should give it to your fiancée. You don't need to worry about me."Madeline stayed indifferent toward him until the very end and did not touch the food that Jeremy took for her. She only turned to smile at Felipe.When Old Master Whitman watched that scene, his frown grew deeper.After the meal, Felipe

Madeline saw a touch of aggressive dominance and strength in Jeremy's eyes.She was worried that he would go out of control and do something to the child in her womb."Jeremy, you said that we’ve cleared everything up between the two of us. Since you don't love me anymore, stop pestering me." Madeline reminded him and struggled to break free from his grasp at the same time.However, the man curled his thin lips into a wide and handsome smile."Why are you so afraid of me? Are you afraid that I’ll eat you up?"The scent of wine that he carried on him blew toward her cheeks, making Madeline's ears become hot as she put her hand on her chest.She was a little flustered but tried very hard to calm her emotions to face him with a cold front."Jeremy, please remember who you are to me. I’m your uncle's wife, which makes me your aunt...""Shut your lips, Eveline Montgomery." He suddenly interrupted in a cold tone as he referred her to her full name."Eveline, what's the matter with y

Rain droplets were seen dropping from the sky outside the window, but to him, it was like a heavy downpour."I just got up here and saw her looking very down as she made her way out from here. Did something just happen?" Yvette set foot into the study room. Looking worried, she walked to Jeremy who was not speaking a single word. "Are you alright?""She said she hates me, to a point she wishes for me to be dead." Jeremy raised his pair of orbs that were reddened. His eyes were brewing with dissatisfaction and sorrow as he said, "She’s pregnant with Felipe's kid. It seems like she really doesn't love me anymore.""Perhaps she has her hardship that she can't speak off." Yvette comforted."What sort of hardship will make her willing to order so many people to kill me?" Jeremy smirked. He then turned around and added, "That day in F Country, if it hadn’t been for you, I might already be dead.""I was saving myself while rescuing you at the same time." Yvette let out a smile. "They mig

The time that was displayed in the CCTV footage was a day before he noticed Cathy going to the hospital for an abortion.That time at the hospital, he had picked up Cathy's body check-up report card and found out that Cathy immediately went to get an abortion after she realized she was pregnant with his kid.Unfortunately, the reality was not like what he imagined.That day, he had planned to finish Jeremy, but Madeline showed up suddenly and even took a bullet for him.This made him infuriated, and it resulted in him venting out all his anger on Cathy who was comforting him in the study room.He even questioned Cathy whether she would be in love with him to the point where she would give her life for him.At that time, Cathy hesitated.He thought that was a no from Cathy.However, after looking at the CCTV footage of her touching her tummy subconsciously, everything finally came to light.It was not that she was not willing to give up her life for him, but it was because she

"Eveline, I'm no longer in love with you."This is my fiancée, Vetty."What? Are you worried that I’ll harm Felipe’s kid, Mrs. Whitman?”Madeline was feeling her heart aching as she placed her hand on her abdomen.'Jeremy, this is your biological child.'In my entire life, I've no other man aside from you.'But in the end, you still don’t believe in me.'Madeline smiled bitterly. She suddenly recalled that two days ago, there was a stranger who claimed to have a bad ending in their relationship who added her on social media.Currently, aside from that stranger, there was no one else she could turn to.Hence, she accepted that stranger’s request. Just when she was thinking about how she should greet that stranger, the latter sent her a message: [Hello miss, I'm very glad you’ve added me as a friend.]Madeline replied: [Nice to meet you, stranger.] [Miss, I've just ended my relationship and I'm feeling very sad. Can you keep me company for a little longer?]Madeline was not

Jeremy was utterly flabbergasted when Madeline hugged him on her own accord.Amid the pitch-black environment, he ran his fingers around Madeline's waist subconsciously and said in a faint tone, "Aside from the contract, what's there for us to talk about, Mrs. Whitman?”Madeline could not blame him for speaking in such a manner as she was the one who spoke in such a disdainful way in the first place."Jeremy, I really have something important to talk to you about."With the faint ray of light, Jeremy lowered his gaze to look at the person in his arms. "Speak."Madeline took in a deep breath. Cautiously, she scanned through the entrance of the conference room to reaffirm that no other people were eavesdropping. She grasped onto Jeremy's arms with a slightly firm grip."Jeremy, actually, our—"Buzz, buzz.Madeline had just said a few words when the phone on the floor started vibrating.Her heart missed a beat. She looked down on the lit screen that displayed Felipe's remark.‘T

Felipe's faint voice was heard over the phone. "Something happened to Lillian."Madeline's expression changed drastically. "Something happened to Lillian? What do you mean by that?!""Lillian accidentally tripped and hit her head. She’s bleeding heavily. I just sent her to Royal Hospital to be treated," Felipe said calmly. Then, he asked, "Are you with Jeremy?""I'm not with him. I'm going to book a ticket to fly back to F Country now!"Jeremy came out from the conference room and saw Madeline running to the elevator. His eyes went dim as he put on a jealous expression. "You're so desperate to meet him after just a call. Eveline, were you this concerned about me in the past?"Madeline boarded the flight overnight to hurry back to F Country.When she arrived at the hospital, Lillian was being admitted to the ICU for further observation.Through the glass window, Madeline glanced at the pale doll-like face. The sight only made her heartbroken.The servants claimed Lillian was hav

"Newlywed couples are indeed so loving."His words were like a sharp sword that pierced through Madeline's heart.She suppressed herself while her stomach was writhing with acidic juices. Staring at Jeremy and Yvette who were holding hands, she let out a smile. "Same goes to you, Mr. Whitman. You and your fiancée are also so loving to each other.""That's a given." Jeremy chuckled. He placed his gaze on Yvette's soothing and smiling face before saying, "Vetty was the ray of light during the darkest time of my life. I'll always appreciate her after being lucky enough to meet such a good lady like Vetty in my life.""Jeremy, I'm not as good as you say." Yvette put on a bashful look, leaning against Jeremy's shoulder. "Oh yeah, hurry and give them our invitation card."'Invitation card?'Madeline was puzzled. The next moment, she saw Jeremy handing over an invitation card that had been meticulously prepared to her."Jeremy and I will be having our engagement ceremony this coming Sa

'But how could you know about it, Jeremy? That time, I chased you away just to save you.'Now, you think that I’ve changed my mind and I’m making fun of you.’She touched the name on the card, smiling with her eye reddened."Jeremy, you'll surely be happy if you know that Lilian is still alive."After having these painful thoughts, Madeline picked up her pencil once again and drew all her thoughts into the design.On the next day, she submitted the design to Jeremy.A long time had passed, but he still did not reply. This felt just like those days back then when he used to ignore her.When it was almost evening, Madeline finally received Jeremy's reply. In his reply, he mentioned his dissatisfaction and requested her to create a new design.Following Jeremy's idea, Madeline constructed a new design. However, even after editing it a few times, Jeremy was still not satisfied. He emphasized to her he was extremely busy and did not wish for her to submit such low-quality designs to
