Chapter 1038
Madeline was seated in Ryan's car. Looking at the empty ring finger on her left hand, she inevitably remembered her separation and reunion with Jeremy over the years.She was suddenly confused. In these years, had Jeremy ever really loved her?Surely he had.That was why he was able to protect her at all costs back then.That was why when he had hugged her to sleep previously, he would show a pure childlike smile.‘But Jeremy, what wrong step did we take that things have turned out this way between us…’Her heart ached silently. Ryan stretched out his hand suddenly and gently held hers. He did not say anything and just gave Madeline a warm look."I want to make the wedding matters a little simpler. What do you think?" Ryan asked for Madeline's opinion gently.The Joneses were a famous family in Glendale. Now that Ryan was getting married, the wedding was bound to be a sensation.Madeline thought that this might be the case because she had been married twice, got divorced twice

Madeline had just walked to the door of the room when the lights inside suddenly went out.For a moment, she felt a black shadow flashing past her eyes, but it was only for a moment.Madeline reacted instantly and immediately turned on the lights, but after the lights were switched on, there was no one in the room—only an opened wedding photo album that was on the bed.Madeline walked in, faintly smelling a cold light fragrance through her nose. She suddenly understood something.Seeing herself smiling so sullenly in the wedding photo and the man’s cold and cheerless features, Madeline gently picked up the photo album before forcefully tearing the wedding photo in half.Jeremy, who was standing behind the curtain of the balcony, saw this scene. It was as if his heart was being penetrated by a sharp blade.He watched Madeline put down the jewelry box she was gently holding onto before she left without even turning her head.After he saw her drive away, Jeremy returned to the room

"Jeremy, what are you looking at? The light is green," Lana informed. Just as she was about to look in the direction Jeremy was staring at, the car started.Jeremy took a paper towel to wipe the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth.Lana did not notice that Jeremy was coughing up blood, only supporting her cheek with one hand as she looked at Jeremy who was driving with a smitten look on her face."Jeremy, you’re really attractive. I used to play around with so many men, but you’re different. I really have the urge to live with you forever."Jeremy glanced sideways at Lana. "Do you really like me that much?""Of course." Lana’s eyes were filled with infatuation, and she looked confident. "I’ll have you slowly fall in love with me and forget about that Eveline because I believe that love will last for a long time."Jeremy pulled the corners of his lips and smiled meaningfully. "I believe it too."Lana was satisfied with this answer, but she still looked a little concernedly i

Splash, splash!Lillian instinctively struggled in the water.Meanwhile, Lana stood by the pool and enjoyed the scenery. She watched Lillian eventually halt in her struggling, gradually sinking to the bottom of the pool. Lana then took a puff of smoke, her gaze becoming more psychotic and satisfied."Eveline, it seems like I'll be able to see what you’ll look like when you’re suffering in pain soon enough."Lana smiled, then turned around and headed out. She decided to dispose of Lillian's corpse only when she returned.Fabian, who had come out of the house to answer the phone, could vaguely hear some weird noises. He walked toward the pool where the noises came from.At first, he thought it was just a bird that was fluttering on the surface of the swimming pool, but after taking a closer look, he realized that it was a child!He did not know why there was a child in the water. He hurried over and jumped into the water without hesitation.When he saw that the little girl was Li

Fabian retaliated reasonably. “This is my younger sister. Who didn’t shower with their brother when they were younger? What’s wrong with looking?! Besides, I was just changing Lily’s clothes. It’s not as obscene as you think!”Earl and Red covered their mouths and snickered upon hearing that.In the room, Fabian was serious about changing Lily’s clothes. He even asked Earl and Red to go to the mall to buy some clothes immediately as he gently dried Lily’s hair and wiped her face.Seeing the color on the little girl’s face gradually recovering, a relieved smile slowly appeared on Fabian’s face.“With me here, Lillian will definitely be fine.”He promised, but it was very strange how Lily ended up in the pool at home.Although he did not have the brains for business like Yorick did, he was not stupid either.He quickly thought of Lana and decided to ask Lana for an explanation after Lillian woke up.…Madeline and Ryan searched in the park for a long time but did not find any tr

Jeremy looked at Lana’s back in disgust and got out of the car to catch up with her with dissatisfaction.“How sweet!”Lana made a mocking sound at Madeline and Ryan.Madeline let herself go from Ryan’s embrace. When she looked up to see Lana, she also saw Jeremy who was following Lana closely.Her tearful eyes instantly became sharp, casting a cold light.However, Madeline did not want to waste her time and breath. She turned toward Ryan and said, “Rye, let’s go to the police station.”“Okay.” Ryan nodded and stepped forward to take Madeline’s hand.Madeline froze for a moment when she felt Ryan’s warm palm, but she did not let go.Although it was under the curtains of the night, Jeremy still saw tears in Madeline’s eyes.‘She cried.‘Why did she cry?’He thought carefully. Seeing Ryan leading Madeline to leave, Jeremy opened his mouth and pretended to be contemptuous by saying, “Mr. Jones, didn’t you say you’ll take good care of my ex-wife? What’s wrong, then? Is it becaus

Lana slammed on the brakes upon hearing this. She looked at the handsome and cold man with excitement and anticipation. “Jeremy, is what you said for real?”“Do you think it’s fake? With how I’ve been treating you all this time, can’t you feel it?” Jeremy asked back leisurely.Lana thought for a moment and no longer had any doubts.“In that case, Jeremy, even if something happens to your and Madeline’s child, you wouldn’t care anymore?”Jeremy quietly hid the sorrow in his eyes. “I’ve told you, I only care about you now.”“Then, that’s great.” Lana smiled, then said, “My subordinate unexpectedly ran into Eveline’s daughter today and thought that the child was particularly annoying, so he dealt with her.”Jeremy curled his fingers abruptly, holding back his emotions. “What do you mean by ‘dealt with her’?”“He took the initiative to drown that little thing.”Jeremy clenched his fists upon hearing this. The unbearably deep sorrow had already caused him to lose all his sanity.Li
Chapter 1045
Jeremy was about to finish Lana off when he heard Fabian cursing angrily.Lana was in a good mood, but she was scolded by Fabian as soon as she entered the house. Her expression hardened. She was about to open her mouth to retort when she saw Fabian carrying Lillian, who was safe and sound, in his arms. Jeremy had also seen Lillian.His battered heart, which was already riddled with holes, was instantly soothed.‘Lillian.‘My little princess.‘So you’re alright. That’s great!‘Daddy was afraid that something had happened to you. If something happened to you, your mother would fall apart completely.’Jeremy thought silently, then heard Fabian scolding Lana again. “You asked your subordinate to kidnap Lillian, didn’t you? You actually threw such a small child into the pool with no care about whether she lives or dies. Are you still human?”“Fabian Johnson! Shut up!” Lana was outraged. “When did I kidnap this little thing? Stop speaking nonsense!”“Who else if not you?” Fabian
