Chapter 132
Madeline looked at Jeremy’s determined promise to Meredith. It was just a few simple words, but they caused Madeline boundless pain.It would seem like they were only suited to leave each. Madeline slowly teared up. She saw Meredith looking at Jeremy with a face full of tears. “Jeremy, are you telling the truth? Will you really marry me?”Jeremy looked at her tenderly. “Of course, it’s true. I’ll definitely fulfil my promise.”“Jeremy, we finally won’t have to hide our love...” Meredith hugged Jeremy tightly, crying into his chest.She turned her face around, showing Madeline a sly and evil look.Beside them, Eloise was elated. She then shot a hateful glance at Madeline.Her suffering and pain threatened to spill out as Madeline clenched her fists. She turned to leave.Jeremy noticed that Madeline was leaving and looked over. He gently pushed Meredith aside, looking like he was going to leave.Meredith pulled onto his shirt. “Jeremy, are you reluctant to leave Madeline?” “N

As she said that, Jeremy’s exquisite face seemed to freeze. His eyes glared piercingly at her. “Madeline, what did you say? What’s the meaning of this?”Thinking that she would be dead soon and remembering her laughable wish that she had held onto for over ten years, Madeline’s eyes reddened as she smiled at Jeremy. “What I mean is, I won’t let that fake b*tch Meredith get what she wants. Even if I die, I’ll bring the title of Mrs. Whitman with me!” Madeline’s red eyes widened, her tears falling against her wishes.“Jeremy, even if you’re disgusted with me and hate me, it’ll never change the fact that I am your wife!” Saying that, Madeline felt excruciating pain in her heart.A lifetime’s worth of her love and passion had been poured onto him. It started with love, and it was now going to end because of love. Now, their love had soured, and everything was going up in smoke. However, why did her heart still hurt so much?Was death the only escape she could have from her pain?

Madeline widened her eyes in shock. “Why did you say that?”Felipe looked at her, dispirited. Then, he parted his lips slightly before stopping himself from saying what he wanted to say.“Nothing. I just think it’s a great pity.”Pity?Madeline felt that something was amiss, but she did not ask any more questions.Some words would be said when the time was right. He might find her annoying if she kept asking.In the end, she opened the door and invited Felipe in.“I heard about Brittany. I believe that it has nothing to do with you. You’re not someone who’s cruel and cold-blooded.”Madeline was touched that Felipe was always so trusting of her. He took a sip of his warm tea and looked at Madeline’s pale face.“I’ll keep your resignation letter. You can go back to work anytime you want.”“Thank you for your trust and kindness, Mr. Whitman. However, I think I don’t have the chance to go back anymore.” Madeline smiled bitterly.“You can come back anytime as long as you want to.
Chapter 135
Madeline stayed silent and muttered to herself irresolutely.She had at least a month left.A month was enough for her to take the evidence to the police and report that Meredith had killed someone.After she left the hospital, Daniel took her on an aimless car ride around the city center. Toward the end of their trip, he stopped next to a food truck.Daniel looked at Madeline with a gentle and soft smile on his handsome face. “Maddie, will you have tacos with hot sauce with me again this time?”Madeline felt surprised. However, when she saw the glistening tears in Daniel’s eyes, she sensed something.Did he already know that she did not have much time to live?Madeline did not think too much into it. She smiled and nodded. “Of course. And not just this time, we’ll have lots of chances in the future.”“Really?” Daniel looked at her expectantly.“Yeah, really,” Madeline replied confidently.Madeline accompanied Daniel as he ate tacos with hot sauce by the food truck. They star

Madeline was so petrified that her face had turned pale. She wanted to run, but she was trapped.Jeremy pinched her cheek and forced her to look at him.She kept shaking her head as she struggled. “No! Jeremy, don’t touch me! Let go!”“You were so happy when Daniel kissed you, but now you’re so reluctant when I touch you?”Looking at Madeline’s conflicting and resisting gaze, Jeremy’s face was grim while his eyes were extremely icy.“Madeline, look closely. I’m your husband.” His deep and seductive voice sounded next to Madeline’s ear. In the next second, she felt him biting her shoulder.“I don’t want this, Jeremy!”She knew what he was going to do to her, and it made her so scared that even her bones were shaking.However, it was as if the man was possessed. He ripped her clothes garment by garment before devouring her viciously.Madeline fell asleep groggily. She had a dream that she had gone back to the happiest time of her life.However, when she woke up, the reality was

She did not know where she was. When she opened her eyes, she saw Meredith towering over her while looking down on her disdainfully.“You’re awake? I thought you were dead. It’d be so boring if you were.”Meredith scoffed and squatted. She then grabbed Madeline’s face.Looking at the disfigured yet pretty face, Meredith was so jealous that malice started filling her eyes.“Madeline, I underestimated you. Even at a time like this, you could still seduce men!” She grabbed Madeline’s wound that had just started to heal. “How did you seduce Jeremy? With your pitiful eyes?”Madeline finally understood what was happening after she heard what Meredith said.Meredith knew about him spending the night with her. Plus, Meredith even successfully imagined the scene of them entangled in bed.She scoffed and burst out laughing. She was laughing sarcastically and at the same time, she was laughing while feeling pleased. “Are you mad? Looks like Jeremy doesn’t love you that much, huh? If he doe

Due to the effects of the tranquilizer, Madeline did not know long she was unconscious for.When she finally regained consciousness, she felt numbness in her arm. Then, she felt a stinging pain in her eyes.She opened her eyes slowly and noticed that her vision was blurry. It was even near to complete darkness.Was it nighttime?When she remembered what Meredith said before knocking her unconscious, Madeline sat up quickly and ignored her wounds. Madeline felt about the floor frantically in the darkness.Photo…Her child’s photo!Madeline started searching in the dark. However, she did not see anything nor feel anything.She took out her phone from her pocket and pressed the screen hurriedly. However, the screen would not light up. Did it run out of battery?As she contemplated that, she felt something that felt like a card with her fingertips. She was sure that it was the photo Meredith had thrown at her before she passed out.Madeline picked it up happily. She put it in fro
Chapter 139
After she left the station, a smile appeared on Madeline’s face.She could finally convict Meredith of the crime she did.If they were able to find Brittany’s blood on the earring, then Meredith would be unable to defend herself.Madeline was waiting to receive updates from the police, but she still got nothing after two days.She was unable to wait anymore, so she went to the police station again. However, she ran into Meredith and Jeremy at the entrance of the station.Madeline could not see who they were from a distance. She was holding an umbrella while standing in the rain. She could only hear Meredith’s voice from a mile away.“Jeremy, why won’t Madeline leave me alone? Will she only be happy if I die?” After Meredith said this, she saw Madeline. Her voice sounded surprised. “Maddie?”Madeline tried to open her eyes, then she vaguely saw Meredith’s face getting close to her.“Maddie, what can I do for you to leave me alone? Why did you accuse me of killing Brit? Brit is m
