Chapter 1206
Madeline glared at Ryan. "Were you the one who exposed all the so-called truth on the net?""I'm just stating the fact." Ryan acted matter-of-factly. "Jeremy used to be all lovey-dovey with Lana, am I wrong?""Shut up!" Madeline roared. "Ryan, you and I know why my husband was so close with Lana back then! He was making a huge sacrifice for Interpol, but you’re claiming that they were both a couple? How rotten can your heart be?!"Ryan was not bothered with Madeline's reprimanding and spoke in a way as if he was giving a kind reminder, "Instead of scolding me right here, why not go hire Jeremy a good lawyer?"He smiled while looking at Madeline who was still glaring at him. "Just wait till they compare the fingerprints on the gun left at the scene. Jeremy will never be able to shake the crime off him. Murdering costs one's life. Even if I give you all the doses of anti-toxoid test reagent needed to complete the course of treatment, you'll still be unable to save Jeremy."Under the

The police officer revealed two documents and said earnestly, "We've gotten substantial proof that Mr. Whitman is the murderer responsible for Lana’s death. We're now going to officially arrest him.""Please don't give us trouble, Mrs. Whitman.""Impossible! Jeremy would never kill anyone!" Karen came rushing downstairs. "You guys must have gotten it wrong. There must be something wrong with this evidence!""The evidence was approved by forensic physicians. The evidence couldn’t have been fabricated,” the officer said confidently."Besides, we've received an anonymous document that allowed us to be very sure that Mr. Whitman had a motive to kill. We've also grasped the timeline that led up to the murder, and most importantly, the gun left at the scene had Mr. Whitman's fingerprints on it."'Jeremy's fingerprints were found on the gun?'Madeline found it unbelievable.The officer started to question, "Mrs. Whitman, on the day of Ryan's birthday, did Mr. Whitman argue with him? At

The police officers quickly ran outside to observe the source of the sound.Madeline trailed them and saw there was a vase that had shattered at the grass below the bedroom.The floor-to-ceiling window of the balcony was left open. The curtain was dancing along with the gentle wind."It's very possible that Jeremy jumped down from the window to make his escape. You guys, hurry and go chase after him!" the leader quickly ordered his subordinates.Madeline looked up to the balcony. She believed Jeremy had the ability and jumping skills. 'But would he ‘accidentally' break the vase and let everyone hear it?'While she was deep in her thoughts, a familiar outline appeared in her peripheral vision.Her eyes sparkled as she met the pair of deep-set eyes that belonged to Jeremy.Madeline's heart was pumping hard. Seeing Jeremy leaving from the main entrance, she quickly went up and deliberately blocked the officer who was leading the troop. "Sir, I sincerely believe that my husband woul

Just when Madeline was about to struggle, she heard a very familiar voice."Shh, it's me."A man's deep voice tickled her ears while he then yanked her to the streets.After ensuring that those people who were tracking them had left, the man halted a cab and brought Madeline into the car.In the car, Madeline stared at the man's face and felt rather upset."You're the one who sent me the message earlier?" she asked. Deep in her heart, she thought it had been from Jeremy.Fabian noticed the disappointment on Madeline’s face. He put on a faint smile and said, "Are you disappointed?"He had already heard about the news of Lana’s murder.Seeing Fabian’s face that was plastered with a thoughtful smile, Madeline looked into his orbs generously. "In my opinion, Lana deserved it, but I can tell you right to your face that my husband is not the murderer.”"I knew you’d say that." It was as if Fabian had anticipated it. He let out a mocking laugh. "The only family I have in this world h

"..."Madeline knew Fabian had purposely said that. She also noticed the press and the police were looking at them, a ‘couple'.Fabian intentionally used his physique to block Madeline out of their sight and 'hugged' her as they entered the room.As soon as they entered, Madeline freed herself from Fabian. "Fabian, what's your motive for putting on an act and dragging me here?""Linnie."Jeremy's deep and hoarse voice was heard coming from behind. Madeline was dumbfounded and immediately spun around.Madeline let out a delightful smile the moment the handsome face was reflected in her orbs. "Jeremy!"Jeremy had a warm and faint smile as he went up to give Madeline a warm hug. "Don't worry, I'm doing just fine."Madeline did not speak a word. She was just burrowing herself in Jeremy’s arms, seeking a sense of security.Fabian saw the scene and shrugged his shoulders while smiling. "Mission accomplished."He then spun around to leave the room. Noticing that the press and police

"The police?" Madeline's heart skipped a beat. She immediately took action and made Jeremy hide in the room.Ding dong, ding dong! The ringing of the doorbell continued, and this made Madeline feel worried about Jeremy being busted.Madeline made her way into the bathroom without any hesitation. She wet her wig and put on a bathing robe. Then, she took out a big towel and pretended to wipe her hair dry as if she had just taken her bath. Only then did she go to open the door."What was taking you so long? What were you doing in there?" asked a young police officer who looked crossed.Madeline put on a vexed look as she lowered her head to wipe her hair, covering her features. She said in a lazy tone, "Hey police officer, can't you see that I'm taking a bath? What's the urgent issue right here?"The police officer scanned through the room. "We’re investigating a murder case in the room ahead. No guests are allowed to stay in any of the rooms on this floor. Please pack up and leave t

Screech!Jeremy suddenly slammed on the brake pedal. At the eleventh hour, before he lost his consciousness, he parked the motorcycle beside a paddy field that almost no people would pass by and used up his entire strength to carry Madeline down safely.Madeline felt that something was weird when she heard the sudden ear-piercing sound of the brakes.However, to her astonishment, the moment she stepped down, Jeremy suddenly started coughing vigorously. His face became extremely pale."What's wrong, Jeremy?!" Madeline hugged him anxiously.Jeremy did not want Madeline to witness his suffering and embarrassing appearance, so he gently pushed her away."Stay away from me, Linnie," he said as he spun around. Not even after two steps, he placed his hand on a big tree beside the road to support himself weakly."Jeremy!" Madeline could not ditch him. She ran to Jeremy and hugged him. "What's going on, Jeremy? Are you feeling unwell anywhere? Tell me!"Madeline felt as if her heart was
Chapter 1213
Madeline raised her teary eyes and looked ahead where Jeremy was staring at.Under the sunlight, the sound of ocean waves came traveling into her ears. She could sniff out the saltiness of the ocean, which was the scent of summer.It was April Hill—the place where they first met and became a pair."Linnie, I hope in my next life, I'll still be able to hold your hand and chase you around on this beach. At that time, I'll always keep your looks in my mind and will never mistake you for someone else. I'll never let you endure those unnecessary humiliations again."Madeline burst into tears and buried her face in the crook of Jeremy's neck when she heard the man's anticipating and apologetic comments. "Jeremy, I don't wish for your next life. I only want you in this life."As she was talking, she suddenly put on a serious look. "Jeremy, I'll never let anything happen to you!"The moment Jeremy heard her comment, it made him recall the night at the hospital when Madeline once said som
