Madeline felt her heart skipping a beat.Had Jeremy been awake the entire time? Had he just been pretending to sleep?Did he hear everything she said just now?Madeline did not know how to handle what was going on right now, but she realized that Jeremy was only changing his position. He had not been pretending to sleep and did not hear what she said just now.When she saw this, Madeline felt disappointed, but at the same time, she was also a little scared.‘Actually, I was hoping that you’d find out the truth.‘But I’m scared that our daughter will be in danger again if you knew.’Madeline escaped from Jeremy’s embrace and used all of her might to pull the man down to lie down on the bed.After she did all of that, Madeline was exhausted. Therefore, she lay down beside Jeremy and fell asleep.Looking at his gentle sleeping face, Madeline lifted his hand gently and placed it on her stomach. “Jeremy, when I had Jack, I longed for you to believe me. I longed for you to touch my

“Alright.” Ken limped up to him.Madeline did not have a chance to say anything before she was ignored.However, she did not go to eat breakfast. On the contrary, she tiptoed to the second floor.When she got to the end of the stairs, she heard Jeremy’s voice from the bedroom. “We don’t have enough evidence now, so I have to go to the warehouse to get more.”“Mr. Whitman, it’s too dangerous. Why don’t we go back to Glendale before we do anything?”“Do you think we can go back to Glendale now?”Jeremy knew very well that Felipe had already marked his location.The best proof was him firing at Ken yesterday.Felipe already knew his whereabouts.Felipe even knew that Madeline was with him.“Mr. Whitman, so what now? I can’t help you now that I’m like this.”“You should stay here and recover. He won’t want to kill you now as I’m his biggest target.” Jeremy’s eyes looked calm as he made the final decision. “If I don’t come back before seven tonight, you should bring Eveline and g

Jeremy was unperturbed when he saw the thought-provoking smirk on Felipe’s face. “I’ve already received the best gift.”For Jeremy, he was satisfied since he was able to say goodbye to his most beloved woman before he came here.“Really?” There was a hint of mockery in Felipe’s eyes. “Your love for Eveline is so deep, but unfortunately, she belongs to me now.”Jeremy was infuriated after he heard those provoking words. He did not want to accept the fact that Madeline was in love with Felipe. He also did not want to see her carrying another man’s child while suffering so much.“What’s wrong? Are you mad? Just blame yourself for not appreciating Eveline back then,” Felipe said, picking up the pistol on the coffee table. He changed the magazine slowly and loaded it with fresh bullets.“Back then, my parents were killed by your grandpa, and after that, I became an orphan.”“When I was at my weakest moment and when I needed someone the most, he sent me to F Country and told me that he

“Jeremy, do you still think you have the chance to get out of here alive?” Felipe’s victorious smile spread across his face gradually.Jeremy was still calm. “Why don’t we have a little competition? We’ll see who’s faster.”After he said that, Felipe’s expression changed.Felipe would not joke about his life, and neither would he take this risk—not when he was going against Jeremy.While the man was hesitating, Jeremy shot the pistol away from Felipe’s hand.When the pistol fell, he grabbed it one step ahead of Felipe and pointed it at Felipe’s heart.The situation changed so quickly that the smirk on Felipe’s face was already gone.“Tell them to go out,” ordered Jeremy.Felipe barked his order coldly. “Get out.”“Mr. Whitman, we—”“F*ck off!” Jeremy chased them away impatiently.The bodyguards did not dare to go against his order, so they went out to keep an eye on them.They figured if Jeremy dared to do something rash, they would fire at the same time. They did not belie

Madeline’s unyielding gaze was like an icy tide flooding over his heart. The endless coldness overwhelmed him from his head to his toes.She was willing to risk her life for Felipe.He frowned and stared straight at Madeline. “Do you really love him that much?”Madeline looked into Jeremy’s hurtful eyes and said firmly, “Yes, I love him a lot. I love the father of the child I’m carrying now.”When Jeremy got this answer, an unstoppable rage appeared in the bottom of his eyes.He pulled the trigger all of a sudden.The bullet was fired out with a loud bang and hit the window on one side.When the glass shattered, Jeremy’s heart also shattered along with it.Madeline looked at Jeremy who had suddenly fired, and her heart was beating erratically.The man’s ominous eyes were filled with a murderous aura and his entire body was giving out a terrifying chill. It was as if he would devour everything in the next second.However, he suppressed all of his dissatisfaction and anger befo

Felipe’s words caused Madeline’s body to turn cold.She turned around quickly and asked nervously, “Felipe, what are you trying to do? What do you want to do with Jeremy?”Felipe frowned. “I won’t let someone who wants to ruin my foundation leave F Country alive!”Madeline felt a pang of pain in her heart after she heard that.“Felipe, Jeremy is your nephew! Do you really want to kill him?”“Nephew?” Felipe scoffed sarcastically. “Back when that old fart killed my parents, did he ever consider that my father was also his brother?”“Grandpa wouldn’t have done that. There must be some misunderstanding!” Madeline emphasized, but it was obvious that Felipe would not listen to her.He looked at Madeline’s worried eyes and curled his lips into a smirk. “Even if it is, it won’t stop what’s going to happen to Jeremy next.”“Felipe, tell your men to stop this now!”“It’s too late.” Felipe smiled lightly, his eyes turning dark.Madeline felt her vision going black, and she could not ex

Madeline stood motionlessly at the door and looked at the man who was pointing the gun at her.Her erratic heart started calming down slowly.Jeremy was pointing the gun at her, and there was still some wet blood on his palms. There were also splatters of blood on his brown leather jacket.His eyes were deep as night and filled with killing intent and malice. At this moment, they were staring straight at Madeline heatedly.He looked just like a demon who had gone through a massacre. A murderous aura was emitting from his every pore. Even so, he still looked extremely handsome.When he saw that the person who had just walked in was Madeline, the dark aura behind his eyes went away slightly. However, sarcasm started to appear in his eyes instead.“Are you here to see if I’m dead?” he asked sarcastically and slowly walked toward Madeline. “You’re such a good wife to Felipe. Not only did you hire so many assassins to kill me, but you’ve even come to check for yourself if the deed was

The chopper zoomed past the assassins and disappeared after it turned the corner.Felipe got wind that Jeremy had escaped with Madeline, hence he ordered his people to hunt them down. However, after the entire morning, they still did not find Jeremy.“Jeremy.” He spat out his name through gritted teeth. “As long as you’re in F Country, you won’t be able to escape from the palm of my hand.”…Inside a hotel in the secluded outskirts of town, Madeline was brought into a small room that was only about 60 square feet.The rain was making a dull sound on the window, and Madeline was waiting nervously for the man to return.Madeline did not know what Jeremy was going to do. He had been gone for half an hour. Therefore, she started to worry.She wanted to go look for him, but he had locked the door before he left.At this moment, she heard the sound of the door unlocking, so she lifted her eyes to look over.Jeremy walked in with a calm expression. He was holding a take-out box, then

Madeline was not prepared at all, and her nose touched the man’s sturdy chest.She widened her eyes and looked at the handsome man showering in front of her in dumbfoundedness. At that moment, she felt the heat rising at the tip of her nose.Water drops were falling from her head, blurring her vision. She wanted to lift her hand to wipe away the droplets on her eyelashes. However, Jeremy grabbed her wrist all of a sudden. Then, he used his right hand that was attached to the rope to hold her head. In an instant, he planted a kiss on her lips domineeringly.Madeline was shocked. She only remembered to push him away when her entire body was soaked. However, when she touched his naked flesh, she could feel her fingertips burning.She was worried that the man would lose his reason, so she tried to pull his wrist away forcefully. However, her resistance only elicited his lust for dominance.Madeline had no choice but to bite him.Jeremy frowned and stopped what he was doing.He opene

She looked at him and did not fight back. On the contrary, she held his hand and closed her eyes.“Jeremy…”Madeline called out his name softly, but before she could say anything more, Jeremy pressed his lips against hers without being able to control himself.Madeline felt her heart getting confused.Her brain was blank.She did not remember how she ended up in bed with the man.Jeremy’s kiss landed on her face, and when he was about to remove Madeline’s clothes, he saw her wearing the colorful shell on her neck like a necklace.Jeremy’s heart started beating erratically. Then, he kissed the shell appreciatively.Even though they did not have a comfortable bed, for Jeremy, it was more than enough to stay with Madeline in a small and simple room.The next day, Madeline woke up in Jeremy’s arms. Her face immediately heated up.She remembered what happened last night and she started panicking.What happened to her last night?She was indulging in his embrace as if she had fal
