“See you tomorrow, Amy.” Madeline waved her hand and turned around.However, after she took a few steps, she heard Cathy calling out from behind her, “Eveline.”She called her Eveline.Madeline turned around in surprise to look at the woman in front of her in excitement. “Adam always calls you Miss Montgomery, but I remember that your name is Eveline,” Cathy furrowed her brows and said probingly.“I keep feeling as if I know you from before, and I don’t mean recently but a very long time ago.”She said and then went on to talk about what happened back then.“There’s a man named Felipe Whitman and he was always appearing in front of me. He kept calling me Cathy but I’m sure I’m not Cathy. Yet, he still kept appearing in front of me until I said I hated him and told him to stop bothering me. It was only then he finally stopped appearing.”When she said this, Madeline could see a flash of desolation in Cathy’s eyes.“For some reason, after he stopped bothering me, I started havi

Madeline’s heartbeat started to become erratic, and she was more than familiar with this rhythm.This was the man she loved and the man who loved her, so they should be able to get along naturally. At this moment, however, Madeline was abnormally nervous.Yet, she was more worried that the red marks and scars after her scabs fell would appear once again.She still did not have enough courage to face this man.However, her voice…While she was pondering about this nervously, Jeremy’s hand grabbed her shoulder and he walked in front of her.It was dusk, and the sunset shone silently on Madeline’s face, creating a halo of light.Jeremy looked at Madeline, and there was an excited glint flashing across his bottomless eyes. However, it faded away as fast as it came.After a few seconds, Jeremy smiled and parted his lips. “Linnie, why are you here?”His tone was gentle and sounded like the breeze in April or May as his voice glided past Madeline’s ears.Madeline was taken aback whe

Madeline lifted the wine glass. She wanted to drink away all of the troubles and unhappiness she experienced recently. However, Jeremy suddenly said something.“Linnie, I think it has been a long time since we sat down and had a candlelight dinner with just the two of us.”Madeline was taken aback when she heard that. Her clear and bright eyes were looking into Jeremy’s eyes.It had indeed been a long time.Madeline lamented silently. However, she thought about it after a while. If Jeremy said that, did it mean that he had not eaten with Naomi alone this whole time?Madeline was glad. She smiled and lifted her wine glass at Jeremy.Even though Madeline did not say anything, Jeremy understood what she meant.He lifted his wine glass as well and clinked it with Madeline’s. When he saw the faint dimples on Madeline’s face, he smiled as well.The lights outside were shining like stars and it was very romantic. At this moment, Madeline only had Jeremy in her eyes. He was her star. H

After she heard that, Madeline did not feel aggrieved or sad anymore.All of the hurt she felt had been healed by this man at this moment.When she was about to cry, Jeremy spread his arms and pulled her into his embrace.“Linnie, stop overthinking. I only have you in my life and you’re the only woman I love.” His warm promise sounded next to her ear.Madeline nodded with tears in her eyes. Her voice shook as she said, “I know.”She knew. She always knew that he loved her, from the start all the way till now.After the hug, Jeremy leaned down and pressed a soft kiss on Madeline’s lips.However, after this kiss, Madeline felt as if she was Cinderella after the clock struck 12. It was time to leave.Coincidentally, Jeremy’s phone rang.He picked up the phone and said after listening for a while, “Tell Lily I’m coming home now. Tell her to stop crying.”‘Is Lily crying?’Madeline started to feel worried. She did not know why her child was crying.Jeremy hung up the phone and M

Naomi clutched her face. When she saw the sharp and piercing cold glint in Madeline’s eyes, she was shocked.After Madeline warned her, she pushed Naomi away to go downstairs.Naomi was bitter about the unbearable grievances. When Madeline was not paying attention, she suddenly stuck her foot out to trip Madeline.However, it was as if Madeline was prepared. When Naomi stuck her foot out, she retracted her foot and at the same time, she grabbed Naomi.Naomi did not expect Madeline’s reflexes to be so quick. She was caught off guard after she was pulled and missed her footing before falling down the stairs. With a loud and muffled thud, she rolled down the stairs.“Ah!”Naomi then rolled all the way to the first floor while accompanied by her pained screams.When Jeremy saw this after he walked through the door, he stood motionless in surprise. However, he did not go over to help Naomi up even after a long while.Karen was in the living room, completely stunned when she saw this

The little princess called Madeline her mommy again.Madeline could not express the excitement she was feeling right now with words. However, the overflowing joy in her eyes was evident.Jeremy looked at Madeline’s twinkling eyes and approached Madeline with Lillian in his arms.“I think my daughter likes you a lot. Can you help me hold this child to comfort her?”Madeline did not expect Jeremy to say that. Of course, Madeline would be more than happy to.She nodded quickly and reached out her hands to hold Lillian.When Naomi saw this from the living room, she felt agitated and nervous.Was this because blood was thicker than water and Lillian was her flesh and blood?Was that why the little thing could sense the woman holding her right now was her birth mother?Naomi clenched her fists in silence when she saw Madeline carrying Lillian upstairs. Plus, she also gritted her teeth.She could not let this continue. If the little girl had this feeling, it meant that Jeremy would

“Jack, be a good boy and watch your sister.”She smiled and urged before striding to the door.Naomi was eating some fruits alone in the living room. She was planning how to get back at Madeline when she saw Madeline bustling downstairs.She was taken aback, and as she was wondering what Madeline was going to do, Madeline had already charged in front of her like a gust of wind.Madeline grabbed Naomi’s collar and did not hesitate before slapping her hard across the face.Slap!“Ah!”Naomi wailed in pain. At the same time, her voice alarmed Karen and Jeremy who just went upstairs.They came out of their rooms at the same time to go downstairs. Then, they saw Madeline holding Naomi’s collar.Karen’s face turned pale from shock. She had no idea what was going on, so she quickly rushed over.Naomi was startled by the sudden slap as well. When she came back to her senses, she glared at Madeline and warned in a low voice.“Eveline, you psychopath! Would you cut it out? How dare yo

Madeline was infuriated and could not endure Naomi’s behavior anymore. She lifted her hand to get ready to pull down her mask to fight head-on with Naomi.When Naomi saw Madeline wanting to remove her mask, she was shocked.Yet, she was not worried at all. She knew Madeline’s face was so horrible it was unbearable for one to look straight at it. As such, no one would believe that a person with that face would be the real Madeline.At this moment, Jeremy appeared behind Madeline.“Quinny,” he called out to Madeline softly.Madeline stopped abruptly after removing one of the straps of her mask.“Quinny, you don’t have to leave. Go back to your room first.” Jeremy walked to Madeline’s side and looked into her eyes with his deep eyes. His gaze was extremely gentle.“How can we do that, Jeremy? She slapped Eveline! She slapped your wife!” Karen emphasized.In Naomi’s heart, she wanted to use Karen to kick Madeline out, but on the surface, she had to pretend to be generous and magnan
