“Miss Bolton, you just said that you knew Carter was setting you up with my husband. You also knew Carter was using such an unethical method to ‘match’ you and my husband, didn’t you?”Madeline reminded Hannah of what she had just said.Hannah froze for a moment. She still did not quite understand what Madeline wanted to express.However, what Madeline said next quickly woke her up.“So, Miss Bolton, you had done it knowingly. Not only did you not reject Carter's so-called ‘kind arrangement’, but you also thought that you were giving yourself up nobly. Is that true?”“...” Hannah had an embarrassed look on her face; her eyes seemed to dart around hurriedly.“You voluntarily and knowingly acted when my husband was only faintly conscious, so my husband is the only victim in this matter. What right do you have to talk about taking responsibility? My husband should be the one holding you accountable.”After hearing these words from Madeline, Hannah's face fell. “Eveline, you…”“Shu

Madeline frowned slightly. This was unexpected. Hannah was more arrogant than Madeline had thought.This girl seemed to only be in her twenties, but her temper was truly ferocious.However, her willfulness might also be due to her youth.It was still working hours, and there were not many people in the lobby downstairs of the company, but Hannah was crying and shrieking very loudly.Madeline walked over, clicking her heels, exuding a very domineering aura.Some confused employees were recording videos with their mobile phones. When they saw Madeline coming, they immediately put down their phones and pretended to be busy with their work.Hannah, too, saw Madeline coming, but she did not stop making a fuss.With a sad look on her face, she lifted her eyes, pretending to only have seen Madeline now, and then she suddenly turned and ran towards Madeline.As soon as she ran up to Madeline, she grabbed Madeline's sleeves, and with a sob, she said, “Miss Montgomery, I know I was wrong
Chapter 1985
Madeline had very keen observation skills. She could tell what tricks this woman had up her sleeves.However, just when Madeline was about to take precautions, Hannah suddenly took out a fruit knife from her pocket!Hannah stood up abruptly, holding the fruit knife in one hand, and aimed it at her wrist.A timid female employee around them screamed in terror.Madeline looked at Hannah's reaction, and of course, she knew that this was one of the woman’s methods.However, Madeline asked Coco to call the police and an ambulance, just in case.The number of people who came to watch this gradually began to increase, and Hannah also felt that it was almost time to continue the second act of the performance.She held the fruit knife and looked at her wrist as if she was struggling.Madeline, who had guessed Hannah's motives, did not panic in any way. “Hannah, please stop your irrational behavior. If you want to use this to achieve your goals, you are still too naive.”Upon seeing Mad

The clanging sound of something falling onto the ground then followed. Madeline, who suddenly had a thought, immediately turned around and looked back, and then she saw bright red blood dripping down from Hannah's left wrist and the blood-stained fruit knife which had already fallen to the ground.In barely a moment, Hannah's face turned pale. She gritted her teeth and glared hatefully at Madeline. “Eveline, if I die, you’re the murderer.”After gritting her teeth and saying these words, her body gradually fell limp to the ground.With Hannah’s life at stake, Madeline did not care about Hannah's unreasonable and savage behavior, and she strode forward and held Hannah instead.However, Hannah broke away from Madeline."I don't need your help, Eveline. Stop being so hypocritical. You just want me to die!”Hannah pulled Madeline's sleeve with all her strength.“Everyone, look. This woman, Eveline Montgomery, is the one who forced me to my death! It’s all because I had a one-night

With questions tailing her, Madeline had to stop. Nevertheless, she merely smiled calmly and magnanimously and then spoke to the camera.“In recent years, you’ve seen a lot of melodrama and even unbelievable news about me and my husband, but what happened in the end?”Madeline asked with a small smile.“It should be very clear to all of you, isn’t it?”The reporters looked at each other tactfully, and one of them asked, “Mrs. Whitman, are you saying that the woman deliberately came here to cause trouble and discredit Mr. Whitman and that in fact, nothing happened between Mr. Whitman and her?”Upon hearing this reporter's words, Madeline was slightly startled for two seconds.She was not good at lying, and the memory of what happened between Jeremy and the maid was indeed playing in her head.“Mrs. Whitman, why are you not answering?”“Could it be true that the woman actually slit her wrist to commit suicide? It didn’t seem like acting. Who would risk their life to put up an act
Chapter 1988
Madeline thanked the doctor and then walked to the hospital room.However, before she got there, Madeline saw, from a distance, that there were a lot of reporters by the room’s entrance.Madeline understood that these people were here for more information.They wanted to know something more exciting from Hannah's end. They were also hoping to prove what Hannah said was true so that their write-ups would be very valuable.Without thinking about it too much, Madeline grabbed her phone and turned around to dial a number.“Hello, I am a family member of patient 1201. I don't know why it is so noisy outside of the adjacent room. It’s so noisy that my relative can’t even rest. Please ask someone to deal with it as soon as possible.”Soon after receiving Madeline's complaint, the hospital called the security guard to drive the reporters away.A few minutes later, the entrance to the room was instantly quieter.Presently, Madeline walked over to the door to the room. Through the small
Chapter 1989
Suddenly, the malevolent-looking Hannah lost control of her emotions and pounced toward Madeline. It seemed as if she had decided to die with Madeline.Madeline did not have time to care about the wound on the back of her hand at the present. She moved to one side quickly and avoided Hannah’s attack.“Hannah, think about your family before you do anything stupid.”Madeline exhorted her. The cut flesh on the back of her hand was bleeding more and more.She needed to do something to her wound right now.Madeline knew her blood type was rare; it would be troublesome if she lost too much blood.However, when Hannah heard what Madeline said, she started cackling loudly. “Family? If I had a family, would I go and become a lowly maid?”Hannah roared out at Madeline. It was clear that she despised her background.The hand she used to hold the knife was shaking as she aimed it at Madeline, and Hannah’s eyes were filled with hatred.“Eveline, why is your life so good? You’re the daughte

Madeline nodded. From the corner of her eyes, she looked at the baffled Hannah before following Jeremy to the door. “Mr. Whitman!” Hannah yelled at Jeremy’s back. “Mr. Whitman! I came all the way from St. Piaf for you. Please don’t ignore me so heartlessly! Mr. Whitman!”Hannah’s ear-piercing voice came over repeatedly. Jeremy turned a deaf ear. He only wanted to take Madeline to tend to her wounds as soon as possible. However, at this moment, the reporters who had been chased away came back out of nowhere. They swarmed forward to interview Jeremy. They wanted to know more about his relationship with Hannah, but before they could get close, they were frightened back by Jeremy’s austere eyes. In Glendale, Jeremy was someone they dared not offend. Jeremy quickly brought Madeline to the outpatient services where a doctor quickly tended to the wounds on their hands. The sight of the gauze on their hands broke Madeline’s heart, but at the same time, she did not know if she
