Chapter 1002
Those were the cigarettes she smoked and also the ones she gave Jeremy back then. However, the ones she gave Jeremy was added with something else.When Jeremy smacked the cigarette box on her face suddenly, Lana knew what was going on.“What did you put in the cigarettes?” Jeremy asked coldly.Lana did not dare answer. She could only pretend to cough from shock.Jeremy did not have time to beat around the bush with her, so he walked to the other side coldly.When Lana saw this, she lifted her leg to kick Naomi who was playing dead.“Get up! Bite the ropes off for me!” she ordered in a low voice.However, Naomi continued to play dead. She thought Jeremy was only going to seek revenge on Lana. She only followed Lana into the car groggily after she drank too much. She was a victim here.“Naomi!” Lana shrieked. When she was about to kick her again, she felt cold liquid pouring from her head to her toes.“Ah!” Lana yelled.Naomi bolted up abruptly since Jeremy was also pouring the

“No!”Lana was so terrified that she started blabbering. In the next second, she saw Jeremy throwing the match on a stack of wooden boxes on the side.It was as if the boxes had been doused in gasoline as well. The tiny flame on the match suddenly grew and started spreading all over the place.However, before the fire could approach them, Lana and Naomi were scared frozen. Cold sweat started to form on both of their bodies.Jeremy looked coldly at Lana. At this moment, she was so scared that her face was completely white.“Lana, I won’t let you die just like this.”Even more intense flames were burning behind his sharp eyes.“You used me to kill my in-laws and caused me to never be able to be together with Linnie. So, I want you to slowly walk toward death while you’re in fear. I want you to experience how it feels to be framed and tortured.”“...”After he said that, Lana saw his tall and slender figure walking further and further away without any concerns until he had walked

After arriving at the location before Fabian and the rest, Madeline watched the flames engulf the factory and understood what Jeremy meant by revenge.She quickly ran through the metal doors to take a look at what was happening inside. Upon entering, she was met with Jeremy standing before the factory like an exquisite sculpture, rooted in place as he watched the flames feed aloofly.Madeline felt her heart sink.She quickly called the fire department and ran to stand in front of Jeremy.It was then that the man realized Madeline had arrived. His dim eyes sparkled.“What are you doing here, Linnie? Quick, leave.” Jeremy quickly pulled Madeline away, not wanting her to be scorched by straying flames.Madeline slapped his hand away, her eyes filled with worry and concern.“What do you think you’re doing? Have you any idea at all?”“I know,” Jeremy replied curtly, the flames reflecting in his frosty eyes. “She deserves to die.”“Yes, she deserves to die, but you don’t have to pla

Watching Madeline’s eyes that were red from crying, emotion finally flashed through Jeremy’s gaze.He could not ignore Madeline’s plea, let alone continue to go against her wishes.“It’s under the door,” Jeremy finally said.Madeline quickly shouted for Fabian, “It’s under the door!”Fabian squatted and groped around, surprised to find the key.Opening the door, he and Yorick then ran inside to carry out Lana and Naomi who had passed out.As both Lana and Naomi had been doused in gasoline, embers of flame managed to catch on them while they were carried out.Thank goodness for the firefighters who arrived in time and extinguished the flames.Lana and Naomi were sent to the hospital where both were declared to not be in any life-threatening danger.However, the ends of Lana’s already short hair were burnt and became choppy. The scent of smoke filled the strands of her hair.Knowing that Lana and Naomi were alright, Madeline got into the car anxiously.She could only imagine h

Jeremy gulped. Giving Madeline up, he forced himself to turn around.He used the day to spend time with the children.Lillian still called him ‘Mister’, but it was good enough for him.The sky darkened, and Madeline returned.Jeremy placed the newly signed divorce papers in front of her and felt dizziness wash over him.Assuming it was the slow-acting poison Lana talked about, he suppressed his reaction to it and gave Madeline a gentle, small smile.“I don’t want you to suffer anymore, Linnie,” he stated gently, “Having gone through so much, I’ve come to understand that true love doesn’t mean possession. As long as you’re happy, I’m happy. That’s enough for me.”Hearing her son, Karen asked worriedly, “What are you saying, Jeremy? Are you actually breaking up with Eveline?”She asked, but Jeremy did not answer.Karen then walked to stand beside Madeline. “Mom has done so many horrible things to you before, Eveline. Yet you’ve forgiven me despite my horrendous acts. Will you no

“Adam?”Jeremy followed after the figure and indeed confirmed that it was Adam.Adam looked no different than how he did before—still gentlemanly with his glasses.Yet, such a kind-looking man had also taken someone else’s life as an experiment subject.How could Jeremy possibly forgive Adam for what he did to Madeline?She had believed Adam, thinking that he was genuinely helping her when she was nothing more than a subject of an experiment to him.Madeline still had no idea why he was so averse to her taking the pain medication Adam gave her.Adam had returned to his office to get his research. However, he had not expected Jeremy to appear before the door the moment he sat in his office.Panic flashed through Adam’s eyes, but he quickly calmed.“Jeremy Whitman? How can I help you?”Locking Adam’s office door behind him, Jeremy walked toward Adam with a domineering gaze in his eyes.“You don’t even have the most basic medical ethics at all, so how can you even call yourself
Chapter 1008
As a mad scientist, nothing brought Adam more joy than achieving the results he wanted.However, the only place that could give him the tactical support he needed was the Stygian Johnson Gang.Adam himself did not have the ability, wealth, or power.Jeremy did not completely believe Adam’s proclamation, so he took his report and went to consult a professor he knew only to receive a similar reply.The professor told him about the mutation in Jeremy’s blood and advised him to do a full-body check-up so that the cause could be found.However, knowing the cause, Jeremy also knew that treatment was close to impossible.Thinking back to the two choices Adam gave him, Jeremy had already made his own decision.He could very well hunt Adam down and kill him, but Madeline’s frantic words deterred him. “Jeremy, please! Come back to me, you don’t have to make another mistake!”‘I won’t make this mistake again, Linnie.’Throwing the test results into the trash, Jeremy left the hospital.A

Madeline asked curiously, only to find a bitter smile on his gentle features.“Do you know how I became an amateur artist?” Ryan asked.Madeline shook her head and smiled. “Do tell.”Ryan turned to look at Madeline. “You made me who I am today.”“Me?” Madeline was confused as Ryan began to tell her what happened years ago.Back then, Madeline had just graduated high school. It was the summer break before university started.Madeline had found a part-time job at a dessert shop, and when she walked out one day, she found an art stall by the road.At that point in time, Madeline had not begun to pursue jewelry designing just yet, but art was something that piqued her interest. Walking over, she found the artworks rather interesting.As such, she picked one up to take a look. Just then, a boy came over to ask calmly, “Do you want it?”She was shocked, but the boy continued before she could reply, “Just pay however much you think it’s worth.”“...” Madeline was still an innocent
