He whispered Madeline's name, stroked her face in the photo, and could not help but cough out loudly.He quickly took a painkiller, but he still could not stop the bloody taste coming from deep in his throat.Jeremy wiped the blood from his lips with a tissue and glanced at the bloodstain. It was a deep brown and did not look like normal fresh blood.Besides that, there was a stabbing pain in his heart, and his fingers were trembling involuntarily.Once the poison developed by Adam entered the final stage, not only would it torture the person's body, but it would also test the person's psychology harshly.Jeremy spent the night in the bedroom at the office.As soon as he got up the next day, he received a call from Lana.After the woman was discharged from the hospital, her emotions swelled up and she high-spiritedly told Jeremy that she wanted to follow along to close the deal.The truth was that Jeremy initially wanted to think of a reason to get Lana to attend as well. The s

Lana was stupefied and stared at Jeremy's cold face blankly. She turned her head abruptly to look toward the door, and so did the fat man.A few tall men in business suits walked toward them sternly with blue badges hanging around their necks."Who are you guys? Who let you in? Don’t you see that this room is booked? Get out immediately!" Lana drove them away with displeasure, clearly not noticing the seriousness of the situation. Of course, the men did not leave but looked at Lana with a serious expression. The leader in the business suit showed Lana his badge. "We’re with the Interpol. There’s proof for us to believe that you’re doing illegal transactions. You have the right to remain silent, but anything you say can be used against you in court. "..."‘Interpol?!‘The International Criminal Police Organization?!’Lana looked at the people who had appeared in front of her incredulously, her brain going blank for a moment.When the fat man and his bodyguards saw that things

"..."Lana was on the verge of collapsing internally when she heard Jeremy's comment."No! This is impossible!"She roared, unable to accept the fact that all this while, she had just been a pawn to Jeremy."No, Jeremy. You love me. I'm even pregnant with your kid. How is it possible that you don't love me?!" Lana emphasized.However, Jeremy was not bothered at all.The colleagues of IBCI came up to arrest Lana. Seeing the situation made her reach out for a pistol from her purse."Who dares arrest me?!" She raised her head proudly and stared at Jeremy who was all calm. She slowly became devastated. "Jeremy, stop cracking jokes with me. Are you trying to tell me you're just a spy from IBCI sent here to the Stygian Johnson Gang? Hmph, how is this even possible? Don't you forget, there’s still poison inside your body. Without me, you'll—""Do you really think you'll be able to have control over me with that stuff?" Jeremy interrupted and counter-questioned. He then raised the corn

Following Jeremy’s gaze, Lana turned to face the doorway as well.The face that she saw made her recall the night when Jeremy halted her at the entrance of the pub.That night itself, she was very afraid that Jeremy would once again attempt to kill her. Anxious, she thought of leaving the scene but was stopped by Jeremy. He asked her for some cigarettes and even agreed to book a room with her together.She had a joyful night because she gained her dream crush.The next day when they had to leave the room, right when she opened the door, she saw a man behaving inappropriately while staring at her with a lewd look.That moment, as she was on cloud nine, she ignored him.However, at this moment, the man from that day reappeared before her!“Lana, have you seen it clearly with your eyes? This is the man that got you pregnant.”“...”After hearing Jeremy’s explanation and looking at the hateful, disgusting man, Lana felt quite suffocated. “Impossible! How is it even possible that I

Jeremy stared at the group of people who were leaving. Only after the crowd dispersed did he leave the room.He was very clear that even if he recovered, he could never be with Madeline again.The lives of Eloise and Sean would always keep them separated.Their love would not topple the tall wall easily.He also knew that for now, no one could cure the poison developed by Adam. Perhaps Adam himself had no cure for it as well.Jeremy had long ago made up his decision.All alone, he drove his way to Whitman Manor, hoping to bid his last farewell.Madeline was accompanying her three kids back in Whitman Manor. She looked at the time, and it was almost time to head over to the airport to pick up Ava.At that moment, there was a piece of breaking news popping up on her phone's screen.Madeline clicked on the news and looked at it. She saw a few video clips being taken by passersby.The location was at a famous restaurant in the center of town, and in the video, Madeline saw Lana,

Karen suddenly heard Jeremy’s voice. The moment she turned to look at him, he was already like a gusty wind that passed by her at lightning speed. He arrived next to Lillian.Lillian had tripped and was about to land on the big marble floor. However, Lillian fell into the arms of Jeremy instead.The little girl was dumbfounded. While still in a daze, she spun around and looked at the man who had caught hold of her.Jeremy’s eyes were glistening with warmth. He was heartbroken. “Are you alright, Lillian?”He asked, feeling concerned while touching the little girl’s head.He was in excruciating pain thinking back to the moment when he ignored his child who had fallen before him.Lillian looked at Jeremy, but no words came out from her. There was no change in her expression and she just blinked her eyes.Jeremy knew this was because of the incident that occurred previously, which made Lillian have a bad impression of him.In the eyes of the little girl, the handsome mister before

Despite Karen being unhappy about Jeremy's cold behavior, she did not object to his request to carry his child.Jeremy held the infant in his arms, and the next second, the baby revealed a bright smile to him. He let out coos and started to blabber.However, he would soon be unable to witness this innocent smile anymore.Lowering his head, Jeremy gave a kiss on the baby's little face and handed Pudding back to Karen. He then touched Jackson's head and said, "Jack, keep your sister accompany. When your brother is old enough, tell him that I love him and I love all of you as well."Then, heartbroken, he spun around."Jeremy, where are you going off to this time?" Karen pestered.Jackson quickly caught up to Jeremy. "Dad, didn't you just say that you're going to have dinner with us? Aren't you going to wait for Mommy's return?"Jeremy's footstep came to a halt. "I'm not worth your mommy waiting for me again. Jack, from now onward, the man with the name Ryan will be your father."J

The guard stared at Lana, who was laughing like a maniac, with an indifferent look.Jeremy raised his hand to beckon, and that guard spun around to file out the scene.In the custodial ward, only Jeremy and Lana were there.Lana laughed for a moment and suddenly put on a long face, looking rather sorrowful while she stared at the man who appeared indifferent."Jeremy, Jeremy, tell me. The things that happened earlier aren't the truth, right? How is it possible? We’ve gotten so close to each other during this time. We were so happy being together every day. How can you treat me this way?"Jeremy, tell me, why?"Hearing the cries of Lana and looking at her sorrowful self, she made those who did not know about the incident pity her.However, after Jeremy heard her, his gaze became much sterner and sharper.He took big strides and came in front of Lana. His long fingers grasped tightly around Lana's neck while his icy cold gaze was just like a sharp blade. He said, "You still have
