Carter slowly walked in. He could vaguely guess that something had happened from Camille's unhappy expression.“Carter, you still have a chance to act since those relatives and friends are not here yet.” Camille sternly persuaded and looked back at Madeline. “How can you marry a woman who’s already married? You have to break off this marriage now!”“I will not break off this marriage.” Carter's answer was straightforward.Camille was stunned for a moment, and her face was full of disbelief. “Carter, are you crazy? Jeremy and her are still husband and wife!”“So what?” Carter asked nonchalantly, meeting Madeline's resisting gaze. Suddenly, he smiled. “I only know that my marriage certificate with Eveline has already taken effect, and my marriage with her is protected by the marriage law in St. Piaf.”“...”Camille was speechless for a while.Carter smiled lightly and looked at Madeline with a cold expression. “Get ready, the wedding ceremony will begin soon.”“Carter!” Camille w

She stood by the balcony and remained unmoved, her eyes lingering on the bloodstain on the floor. It was the blood from Jeremy's wound last night.Looking at the dried-up blood, Madeline's eyes were imposing and firm.‘Jeremy, I took the wrong step.‘But I think I won’t be wrong again in my next step.’Click.The sound of the door opening came from behind.Madeline heard footsteps approaching her, but it did not sound like it was Carter.Madeline calmly looked back and saw Ada wearing a gorgeous Lolita costume as she walked toward her with a look of disdain and arrogance.“Hmph.” Ada sneered, “I really don't know what kind of charm a married woman who has three children like you has. Eveline, what means did you use to get Carty to take you as his wife? Can you teach me?”Seeing Ada's disdainful face, Madeline behaved more contemptuously than her.“Miss Ada, are you really stupid, or are you just pretending to be innocent? With a character like yours, it’ll be difficult for an

Listening to Madeline's words and seeing the self-confidence on her face, the smile on Carter’s handsome face became deeper.“What you just said makes me look forward to your next performance even more.” He smiled. There seemed to be a flash of excitement in his eyes.Madeline was about to speak when she raised her eyes to see Camille walk in with a dull expression on her face.“Carter, there’s still time. Think about this more clearly.” Camille persuaded again.However, Carter was firm. “I’ve been thinking about this very clearly from the beginning. Otherwise, I wouldn't be where I am now.”“...Carter.”Carter glanced at the time on his watch nonchalantly and then summoned the maids.The maids waiting outside the door trotted in immediately. “Mr. Carter.”“Help the future young madam put her veil on. The wedding ceremony will begin soon.”“Yes, Mr. Carter,” the maids responded immediately.Madeline stood calmly, letting the white veil fall on her face. The sharpness and tena

The priest nodded in satisfaction and then turned to ask Madeline.“Miss Eveline Montgomery, are you willing to marry Mr. Carter Gray and be his wife? Are you willing to marry him and support each other for life regardless of pain or illness, sadness or happiness?”Madeline knew that everyone was waiting for her two-word answer, but she knew that there was one person who did not want to hear that.“Miss Eveline Montgomery, please answer my question. Are you willing to—”“I do not,” Madeline decisively interrupted the priest who was repeating the question.Her distinct and resonant voice sounded very clearly in the empty field.Those who heard Madeline's answer were all stunned. Then, it was followed by all kinds of exclamations fueled by shock and surprise.The priest stared at Madeline dumbfoundedly. “Miss Eveline, please answer again. Are you willing to—”“I said, I do not.”“...”Again, Madeline's straightforward answer sounded very outrageous.The crowd was promised a s

After Madeline said this, Carter showed a never-before-seen look of surprise in his eyes.He had thought it was the best threat to use on her because she was previously in prison where she suffered inhumane treatment and suffering, so she was deeply traumatized. It was impossible that she would still want to go back to such a place.However, he never expected that Madeline would say that she was guilty of bigamy so confidently and magnanimously.Although, he had been the one who designed this crime for her.Ada, who was among the crowd, was also stunned when she saw this scene.After being stuck in a daze, she quietly turned around and sneaked to the side.Ada's mother saw this and followed behind her.When she was about to ask Ada what she wanted to do, she saw her daughter taking out her phone and quickly dialing a number.“Hello, is this the police station? I want to make a report. There’s a woman here who committed bigamy.”After reporting to the police, a happy grin appea

She immediately realized who had arrived. This special voice remained freshly engraved in her memory.Ada turned her head abruptly, and her eyes, filled with guilt, fell on Jeremy's figure, silhouetted against the light outside.She panicked and looked at Carter, but Carter's expression remained unchanged, as if he had already expected Jeremy's appearance.Meanwhile, Madeline was much more certain that her man would appear.She met Jeremy's gaze, full of affection and longing, which filled her heart suddenly with a boundless sense of security.She no longer cared what would happen next.He was her most stalwart source of strength and support.At this moment, murmurs rippled across the surrounding area, all were equally stunned by his appearance and curious at his stroll towards Madeline. “Who’s that?”“I think I’ve seen him somewhere before. He looks very familiar.”“I know who he is! I saw him on the Internet. He is the young master of Glendale’s number one family, Jeremy W

The police’s sudden appearance stopped Madeline and Jeremy in their tracks.Ada saw this and immediately ran to the police. “She’s Eveline Montgomery!” Ada yelled while pointing at Madeline.Several police officers focused on Madeline. “Are you Eveline Montgomery?” one of them asked.Jeremy, eyebrows furrowed, subconsciously stepped in front of Madeline to shield her.However, Madeline pulled Jeremy’s hand away lightly and walked nobly toward the officers. “Yes, I am Eveline Montgomery.”The officers studied Madeline. “Is it true that you have a marriage contract with two men at the same time?”“Yes! She is!” Ada emphasized loudly. Then, she pointed at Jeremy. “This man is her husband, but she signed a marriage contract with Mr. Gray while she is still married to her husband.”After hearing that, the officers looked at Carter who was standing a short distance away. Almost everyone in St. Piaf knew Carter Gray.Talented and handsome, he not only possessed outstanding skills but

”Hiss.”Madeline turned her head hurriedly and saw Jeremy's face gradually turning pale.She quickly noticed that Jeremy's right leg trembled slightly when he stepped on the accelerator. The thought of Jeremy’s injury pained her heart.“Jeremy, stop the car by the roadside. I’ll drive.”Jeremy glanced at the rearview mirror. After confirming that the coast was clear, he followed Madeline’s instructions and stopped the car by the roadside.After the car had stopped, Madeline and Jeremy decisively exchanged seats. Madeline then started the car.She was not familiar with the roads of St. Piaf, so she continued onwards, following the road the entire way until they reached a deserted path. After ensuring that there were no cars following them from behind, Madeline stopped the car.“Jeremy, how are you doing?”Madeline’s heart ached as she approached Jeremy’s side. When she saw the wound on his ankle bleeding again, she immediately got off the car and helped Jeremy out of the passeng
