Chapter 1934
Presently, Jeremy did not exist in Madeline’s memories, but Jeremy's words and behavior gave Madeline a familiar feeling, a feeling similar to how she felt about Carter.At this time, a maid came over. She said that Camille had asked them to go to the ancestral hall.Not wanting to waste any time, Carter took Madeline and went out. Before he left, he told his bodyguard to keep an eye on Jeremy.In fact, in the beginning, he had deliberately allowed Jeremy to enter the manor to see Madeline so that Jeremy would feel uncomfortable.However, instead of achieving his goal, Jeremy now had the upper hand.Nonetheless, Carter did not take it very seriously either. He glanced at Madeline who was by his side, and a corner of his mouth lifted into a smile.Jeremy went upstairs but his eyes continued to follow Madeline. Even after Madeline had gotten in the car and left, Jeremy still did not leave.‘Linnie, I’m the one you love. From the beginning to the future, our feelings for each other

In the bedroom on the second floor.Shirley operated the wheelchair all the way to the balcony, and Jeremy followed behind her until she stopped.If this were in the past, Jeremy would never be alone with Shirley at all, let alone listen to her. At the present, he had let go of his prejudice against her, and he had a little more trust in her.“I knew you’d come, but I didn't expect you to come directly into Gray Manor like this.”Shirley sighed. She raised her eyes, tinged with envy, and looked at Jeremy.“Eveline is so lucky to have you to care for her, to concern her.”When Jeremy heard those words, he felt an ache in his heart. He regretted that he had not been able to give Madeline complete happiness and love since the beginning.Jeremy could see that Shirley no longer had the sharp edge about her, but he did not want to waste time on idle chit-chat.“I don’t think this is what you want to talk about with me now that you’ve brought me in here.” Jeremy went straight to the p

However, Jeremy still could not understand how Carter could smoothly obtain the royal inheritance after his marriage registration with Madeline.Did Madeline have anything to do with the royal family of St. Piaf?“The previous wedding between him and Eveline was disrupted by your appearance. I believe that this time, he won’t give you the opportunity to ruin it again.”Shirley's words contained a reminder, and she said it with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.“I know him too well. He would really do anything to get the desired result. Those harmful poisons are the best evidence for that.“Jeremy, I know that, in your heart, you still find me nauseating, but I hope you can remember what I said. Don't face Carter head-on at any given time. You have to remember that Eveline needs you.”It was rare for Jeremy to see the sincerity in Shirley's eyes. At this moment, he was convinced that she was being sincere.When he was about to speak, however, the door was pushed open rudely.C

Jeremy was not trying to boast when he said that. He knew his own ability.He did not deny that Carter's bodyguards must also be of some skill, but he was more convinced that none of these people were a match for him.Upon hearing what Jeremy said, the bodyguards felt extremely insulted.Did he want them to fight him all at once?He was clearly looking down on them!They wanted to see how strong the young master of Glendale’s most powerful family was to be able to say speak so shamelessly.“Go!”The leading bodyguard ordered, and several other bodyguards immediately rushed forward.Before making a move, they were very confident that Jeremy was definitely not their match.Even if Jeremy truly had this ability, there was strength in numbers, after all.However, after making a move, they found that they had been wrong and that they had been overthinking it.Jeremy was not only agile and quick, but the speed of his attacks far exceeds theirs.After a few rounds, they had alread

The bodyguard's sturdy body fell heavily on the grass with a thud.“Ow!” The bodyguard let out a pained scream.Jeremy looked down upon the man with a condescending glace like a king, then he turned to look at the other bodyguards.However, the other bodyguards were palpably afraid of Jeremy.Convinced that Jeremy could not be defeated with their skill alone, they decided that they had to play dirty this time.The bodyguard who suffered the shoulder throw looked at Jeremy's carefree back figure and quietly took out a pistol from the inner pocket of his suit.He pointed the gun at Jeremy's calf and pulled the trigger when Jeremy was off his guard.Nevertheless, Jeremy's observation skills were so keen that when the bodyguard pulled the trigger, he deftly avoided it, swift and flexible.The bullet flew past Jeremy and in the next second, it penetrated the calf of another bodyguard standing in front of Jeremy.“Ow!”The bodyguard who was shot yelled out in pain, and the outcome

Carter paused, and the corner of his lips lifted into an intrigued smile. “Jeremy, it seems that this time, you won’t be returning to Glendale after coming to St. Piaf.” Carter loaded the gun again and pointed it at Jeremy's heart.He glanced at Jeremy's bleeding calf again and laughed suddenly.“It hurts, doesn’t it? But this kind of pain will soon disappear because you will lose all of your senses very soon.”As he spoke, his eyes narrowed, and then his fingers pulled back.“Jeremy, go to hell and atone for my son.”“Stop!”Just when Carter was about to shoot Jeremy in such a grandiose way and when Jeremy intended to dodge, an anxious voice came from above to stop him.Carter's fingers stiffened suddenly. He raised his eyes to see Shirley in a wheelchair by the balcony on the second floor.Shirley was looking at the scene unfolding in the courtyard downstairs nervously and worriedly.“Carter, if you dare kill Jeremy, I'll jump down from here.” Carter could hear Shirley’s w

Carter was a little frustrated; the expression on his face seemed much more irritable.As soon as he finished speaking, he walked away angrily.Although the bodyguard beside him was a little reluctant, he still had to take Jeremy back to the room for treatment as per Carter’s orders.Jeremy did not want to worsen his condition, so he followed the bodyguard to the guest room.Soon after, Carter's family doctor arrived, and Shirley followed him into the room.At this moment, Jeremy's face had become extremely pale. Weakened by the blood loss, he had passed out in bed.Extremely worried, Shirley looked by the side. “Dr. Lane, how is it? Is his injury serious?”Dr. Lane answered Shirley's question while treating Jeremy's wound.“Miss Brown, there’s no need to worry too much. His injury won’t put his life in danger.”Of course, Shirley knew that this would not endanger Jeremy's life, but she was still worried.“How long will it take for him to get better? Will it affect his abilit

“Linnie.”As Madeline entered, Jeremy softly called out to her, and his dim eyes turned bright again.He immediately sat back up, but his movement was too large, and it affected his leg wound.“Hiss.”He let out a muffled groan.If it had been any other time, he would not even make a sound, but now that he saw Madeline, he instinctively yearned for her care and concern.Madeline noticed Jeremy's action.However, her expression was calm, and she did not react with any worry in response to Jeremy's discomfort.It felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over Jeremy’s eager and yearning heart. He felt very cold.Nevertheless, he had to comfort himself. If Madeline had not been hypnotized, and if she had not been instilled with some groundless ideas by Carter, she would have cared for him, and she would have cared very much.When he saw Madeline walking toward him, Jeremy did not know how to break the silence that now enveloped them.In his heart, he wanted to call her n
