Ken hesitated. Then, he voiced his suspicion, saying, “Felipe’s company and business have been in Glendale this whole time, but for some reason, he left to go to F Country.“Felipe has been staying in F Country for the past three years and rarely left. According to sources, he met Vera on the plane and fell in love with her at first sight.”F Country.Jeremy remembered that Vera was also from F Country. However, from her appearance, she was obviously not a native of F Country.After he hung up the phone, Jeremy read through the information slowly.Nothing about Vera’s information was suspicious. However, he saw a date that he would never forget from Felipe’s file.That day three years ago, Madeline’s cold body had laid in his arms. She was no longer breathing nor did she have a pulse. She had left him forever.However, it was that day Felipe left Glendale to go to F Country.It was evident on Felipe’s entry and exit information.Madeline died that night and Felipe left Glendal

She called out in a bright voice, her face looking almost exactly like Madeline.Jeremy squatted and caressed the little girl’s head.“Hello, Lily. I’m Jackson’s daddy.”“I remember you.” The little girl blinked her bright eyes. “Are you here to play with me, nice mister?”Jeremy smiled warmly before taking out a doll from his pocket.“I sent Jackson here today, so I came to see you since I’m here. This is for you.”“Wow, what a cute bunny!” Lillian was completely attracted to the delicate doll.Using this opportunity, Jeremy plucked a single hair from Lillian’s head.Looking at this innocent and adorable face in front of him, he had too many expectations and yearnings in his heart.Jeremy then came to a DNA screening agency with an indescribable feeling in his heart. He pulled some strings and fast-tracked his test.The staff told him it would take at least eight hours before he could know the result.After he left the DNA screening agency, Jeremy drove to Felipe’s company.

After he heard what was said from the other end of the phone, Jeremy tightened his grip on it.Upon hanging up, he opened the app on his phone and saw the latest email he received. His pupils constricted as his finger lingered above the screen, but he did not tap the screen.Honk, honk!The cars behind them started honking as the light had already turned green.“Are you alright, Mr. Whitman?” Madeline looked at him curiously.Jeremy pressed down on the lock key and tossed his phone to one side. “I’m fine.”He pressed down on the accelerator. His deep eyes looked at Madeline intensely before he looked back to the road ahead.Madeline wanted to know more about Jackson, so that was why she got into the car. However, after that phone call, the air inside the car became tense and horrifyingly quiet.After the car stopped in front of the kindergarten, Madeline picked Lillian up but she did not run into Jackson. The teacher told her someone had already taken Jackson away.Madeline fe

After a painful experience with her previous relationship, she would choose to be loved again if there was a choice.…Jeremy returned to the house while holding the phone tightly in his hand. There were answers in it that he could not wait to know.However, as soon as he entered the house, he saw Meredith cooking in the kitchen while the maids instructed and helped at one side.This scene made Jeremy think of Madeline.He recalled the nights that she would be here making dinner for him and yet, he would just ignore her. He instead spent the night outside rather than coming back to face this woman who he thought was dirty and heinous.When Meredith heard him coming back, she turned around and ran to him. “Jeremy, you’re back. I picked Jack up and I made dinner especially for you guys tonight. This is my first time making dinner, so I hope you’ll like it.”She looked at Jeremy with passionate and loving eyes. “Jeremy, today my mother received an invitation card for Miss L.ady's

Immediately, Jeremy saw a column of professionally analyzed data. He hastily glanced through it and scrolled directly to the end of the email.After seeing the results, his breath froze for a second.The doubts, expectations, and any traces of ridiculous hopes from the bottom of his heart turned into nothing in an instant.The report clearly stated that he was not Lillian’s biological father.However, their chromosomes were identical, and there was only one reason why they were identical. It was because Lillian was really Felipe's biological daughter, which was why his DNA and Lillian’s DNA showed a kinship.The phone slipped from Jeremy's fingers unbeknownst to him.The glow from the sunset scattered on his emotionless face. Jeremy eventually lifted the corners of his lips after a long while and let out a low laugh.‘It turns out that there are indeed people who look so similar in this world.'The actual fact is, you’ve left me.'His heart started aching as he recalled the lo

After she heard that, Meredith’s face froze. However, she did not forget to maintain her vulnerable and pitiful expression. Her voice sounded so aggrieved as if she was going to cry at any second. “Miss Quinn, are you saying that you’ll keep pestering my fiancé and continue to be the third party?”Madeline parted her pink lips and said slowly, “Do you know why I gave you a mirror on your birthday?”“...” Meredith’s face fell.“I guess you’re still confused about your position. No wonder Jeremy still refuses to marry you after so many years.” Madeline displayed a thought-provoking smile on her face before getting up and leaving.Meredith stood up immediately as her hypocritical mask cracked. “Vera Quinn! I’m showing you kindness and yet you’re refusing to accept it! Alright! If that’s the case, just you wait. You’ll know the consequences of crossing me soon enough!”Madeline turned around nonchalantly. When she saw Meredith’s furious face, she smiled even wider.“Let that day come

There was a hint of misery in Jeremy’s slightly intoxicated face. “It’s her.”After staying silent for some time, Madeline got an answer from him.It was her.The person he loved the most was Meredith.Madeline’s grip on the wine glass tightened slowly.The fire of rage in her heart started burning brightly, but it was unable to destroy the unwillingness and bitterness in her heart.“Linnie, I’ll stay with you forever. I will protect you forever. I’ll take you as my bride…”The little boy’s promise was like the autumn breeze outside the window, caressing her ear before drifting away.Madeline held the wine glass and downed the contents inside it.She felt as if a million needles were piercing her heart. They were so light yet they hurt so bad.She was feeling sad for her past self. She was so innocent for believing his promise to marry her. She ended up waiting for him to reunite with her like a fool. However, in the end, all she got was this man’s merciless torture.Madelin

…Two days later, the dinner party went on as scheduled.Since Miss L.ady was getting big, the rich and famous from the upper-class were all here. Most of them were socialites and wealthy women.Madeline had been ready for a while, but at this moment, she felt complicated.She knew Eloise would be here tonight as well.This person was her mother who gave birth to her and lost her.After she got the call from the manager of the headquarters, Madeline sashayed into the venue.When she walked in, she saw a lot of socialites and wealthy ladies gathering around while chatting. They were boasting about the expensive, limited, and custom-made jewelry that they were wearing.When Madeline walked in, she earned shocked gazes from the guests there.Her champagne-colored dress accentuated her perfect figure while her black hair contrasted the fairness of her flawless skin. She would leave a trail of sweet fragrance wherever she went. One would not be able to stop themselves from taking i
