“Jeremy, do you want to know where Ryan’s secret base in F Country is?”Jeremy lifted his deep eyes. “Do you know where it is?”Felipe nodded firmly. “I do.”Jeremy was surprised. He briefed Madeline before going to Interpol’s branch in Glendale with Felipe.Felipe provided the related address and information. Then, the people who were in charge quickly contacted the colleague over at F Country. Indeed, they instantly found the place where Ryan hid his illegal goods in F Country.Felipe’s clue played an exceptionally important role in this case.After they left the branch, Jeremy and Felipe walked on the streets. It was at the end of summer.The two of them did not have the barrier and rivalry they had before. Now, they could have a peaceful and friendly exchange.“How did you know about Ryan’s business? Also, how did you know where he hid the goods used for trading?” Jeremy asked Felipe the questions he had in his heart.After Felipe heard that, his thin and narrow eyes looke

Before Jeremy could finish talking, Felipe smiled and nodded.He stood under the tree next to the crosswalk and looked at the busy road. His eyes were filled with indescribable melancholy and loneliness.“Cathy’s gone and I don’t have much to live for. Cathy wouldn’t have died if I didn’t choose the wrong path back then and touched something I shouldn’t.”Felipe lowered his gaze in remorse. The hand hiding in his pants pocket was clenching around the small glass bottle.The person he loved the most was there.“I’ve done everything I need to do. The Stygian Johnson Gang has collapsed, Yorick is dead, and Ryan has been arrested, so I should go and surrender myself.”After he said that, Felipe let out a sigh of relief.The sun penetrated the green leaves and branches while creating mottled light rays on Felipe’s handsome face. He was smiling, but his smile looked bitter.“Sometimes, I wonder why Eveline could still forgive you and how you could still pick up the pieces and start a

F Country retained the death penalty. The death penalty was also exactly what he wanted.Beep beep!Suddenly, a harsh horn sounded from in front of him.Felipe did not notice it while standing on the side of the road. As the car got closer and closer, a warm little palm held his hand tightly all of a sudden.Only then did Felipe feel something and abruptly jolt back to his senses.He lowered his gaze to see a pair of clear and round eyes. Before he could take a closer look at the child, Felipe noticed that a car was quickly approaching them. As such, he picked up the child and retreated safely to the sidewalk.Felipe put the child down only to realize that it was a little boy who was about one or two years old. He was still very young and tender.The little guy blinked his big eyes and looked at him, then he opened his mouth to say incoherently, “Danger. Mommy said cars are danger.”Felipe understood what this child was saying. He was trying to tell him that cars were dangero

Felipe paused as his heart started beating faster.“However what?” Jeremy asked curiously.Felipe did not beat around the bush. He said frankly, “This doctor has been with me for so many years, so Cathy was familiar with him as well. He always treated Cathy like his daughter and Cathy looked up to him.”Jeremy remembered something when he heard this. “Is the doctor you’re talking about the same one who treated me?”Felipe nodded. “Cathy pulled some strings with the doctor. If not, normal people wouldn’t be able to get this doctor to treat them.”“Don’t overthink things first. Call that doctor right now to ask him about this.” Jeremy reminded him.Felipe’s heartbeat became more and more erratic. He took out his phone, and at that moment, he felt his hands getting weak.Should he make this call?If he got a denial, his heart would feel as painful as if it was being sliced by a thousand knives.However, if he did not ask, he would lose his last hope.Jeremy knew why Felipe was h

After Madeline asked that question, flames of hope started burning in Felipe’s heart again.After the dinner, he followed Jeremy out of the gates of Whitman Manor. Then, he suddenly stopped.“I want to know something.” Felipe lifted his gaze. Under the glow of the streetlights, the glint in his eyes was clearly reflected.Jeremy turned around because he had sensed it a long time ago. “I’ll pretend that you’ve surrendered yourself to me and I’ll do my best to buy you more time so that you can get a chance to investigate what’s going on with that woman who looks exactly the same as Cathy.”“Thank you.” Felipe thanked him sincerely. “I want to go take a look at the place where I saw the woman. I’ll come back later.”After he said that, he turned around carefreely. Jeremy stood where he was for a while before turning back to go to the house.Madeline was sitting on the sofa talking to Eloise. Jeremy could tell that Madeline’s emotions and mental state had become much better.He wond

“Hello, who is this? The woman’s pristine and sweet voice glided into Madeline’s ears.Madeline held the phone dumbfoundedly. She could not believe what she just heard.This voice was so familiar. It left quite an impression in the deepest part of her memory.“Cathy?” Madeline asked probingly.“Who?” the woman asked in confusion. It was as if she did not know the name ‘Cathy’.Madeline was also taken aback. When she was about to ask again, it sounded like the phone was handed to someone else. Then, she heard Adam’s voice. “Jeremy? Can I help you?”When Madeline heard Adam’s voice, she hurriedly told him about Jeremy’s situation. “Adam, the slow-acting poison in my husband’s body is acting up again. You must have a way to save him! I’ll send the address to you now. Please come over as soon as possible.”“Got it. I’ll come over right now.” Adam agreed quickly.Madeline thought she sounded courteous enough. When she thought about Adam ganging up with Ryan back then, she only felt

Madeline could not wrap her head around the new information. Plus, she also remembered the woman who picked up Adam’s phone just now.“Adam, do you have a girlfriend now?” Madeline probed.After she said that, Madeline saw Adam slightly taken aback. On the other hand, Jeremy also looked at Adam curiously.“Linnie, why did you ask that?”“It’s nothing. When I called Adam just now, a woman picked up his phone and I think I know that voice from somewhere,” Madeline explained with a smile. She looked extremely calm right now. “Adam, is that woman someone we know?”“No, she’s not.” Adam quickly denied it but then, he admitted a little, “However, she’s indeed my girlfriend.”He said and looked at the time. “I have to go now. My girlfriend is timid and feels unsafe being home alone at night.”Adam said before turning around to leave.After Madeline walked him to the door, she quickly went back to the room.She took a towel to wipe the sweat away from Jeremy’s forehead. She had some f

“That time?” Madeline got closer to Jeremy in curiosity. “Jeremy, do you know the relationship between Adam and Cathy?”“I’m not sure.” Jeremy shook his head lightly. However, there was a look of joy in his narrow eyes. “Linnie, if that’s the case, Cathy might really be alive. Adam is not an ordinary doctor. He has the ability to make Cathy live.”Madeline’s heart started beating faster. “It’ll be great if Cathy is still alive.”She beamed and circled her arms around the man. ‘Jeremy, it was so difficult for us to get the chance to start over. I really hope that Cathy and Felipe would have this chance too.”“As long as Cathy is still alive, I think Felipe will be happy even if they don’t have a chance to start over.”“Yeah,” Madeline replied and leaned against Jeremy’s chest.Madeline felt as if she was free from anxiety when she indulged in the warmth and strong support of the man’s chest.The next day, Madeline wanted to tell Felipe about the possibility of Cathy still being a
