Madeline Crawford exited the hospital, holding the test results in her shaky hands. There were tears in her eyes, but it was unknown if she was happy or sad.“Miss Crawford, you’re pregnant.” The doctor’s words rang in her ears once more.Three months ago, she had married Jeremy Whitman; he was the number one young master of a prestigious family that was the envy of the entire Glendale. On the day of the wedding, every woman in the city was extremely envious of her. She had also thought that she was the happiest and luckiest woman on earth.Ever since she met Jeremy when she was ten years old, a seed had been planted in her heart.In order to get on Jeremy’s level and steal another glance at him in the crowd, she had worked hard to improve herself throughout the past twelve years.She had always felt that they were from two different worlds. She was like a wild child who grew up in the ruins. How could she have any sort of relationship with a man like him?However, it was unsur
The next day, Madeline woke up from her sleep.Before she was fully conscious, a box of contraceptive pills was thrown at her.“Eat this.”Madeline lifted her head and saw that Jeremy was already fully clothed. He looked cold and elegant, completely different from the violent devil he had been the night before.Looking at the box of contraceptive pills, Madeline’s heart started to tremble.She was already pregnant and should not be eating contraceptive pills. It would cause the baby to become deformed.“Why are you not eating? Do you want me to feed you?”When Jeremy saw that Madeline was not moving, he was slightly agitated.“Madeline, I’m telling you. Don’t even think about having my child. You’re just a shameless lowlife who would bite the hand that feeds you. You do not deserve to have my child!”The man’s words struck Madeline’s heart.It was already summer, but Madeline could feel a cold breeze invading her heart violently.She had thought that the child would be the b
Madeline fell to the floor after being kicked out of nowhere. She protected her stomach subconsciously. Afterward, before she could explain, Jon slapped her on her head again.“You b*tch! Why would Meredith kill herself for someone like you! You’re the one who deserves to die!”Through gritted teeth, Jon spat out each and every word. He despised Madeline to the bone.“Dad, it’s fine. I’m not destined to be with Jeremy. I don’t blame Maddie.” The sound of Meredith sobbing slowly began to sound from the other end of the room.The corner of Madeline’s lips were bleeding, and her head was buzzing from pain. She endured the pain and lifted her head. As a result, she saw Meredith leaning against Jeremy’s chest. Consequently, tears could be seen in her eyes.Jeremy was holding the sobbing Meredith. His eyes were filled with gentleness as he protected the her.The scene looked comforting, but it stabbed Madeline right in the heart.If that thing had not happened, Jeremy’s wife would be
Madeline could not link the woman calling her names with Meredith.Ever since she entered the Crawford Family and met Meredith, she had felt that the latter was a young lady who was magnanimous, elegant, kind, and gentle. However, right now…“I’m so mad! I wasted so much time and effort by forming the perfect plan and making Jeremy drink that drugged beverage. I had even called reporters to photograph and record evidence of me spending the night with Jeremy the first thing in the morning so that Old Man Whitman would agree to let me marry Jeremy. Who knew I had misread the room number and slept with a wretched-looking tramp. I accidentally let Madeline benefit from it!”So, this was the truth; this was the true face of the good sister who had been trying to beg for mercy on her behalf a few minutes ago.Madeline’s heart was now beating extremely fast. She felt extreme feelings of lament hysteria.This was the precious darling that was so kind and gentle in Jeremy’s eyes.She was
They had not expected Madeline to appear and say those things. The three people in the room froze.After a few seconds, Meredith’s expression changed. The usual gentle and easy-mannered expression on her face disappeared. On the contrary, she looked extremely vile. “Madeline, why are you still here?”Madeline’s eyes were red. She chuckled sarcastically and said, “Aren’t I just in time to take part in the plan that you guys just proposed?”Meredith realized what had happened and her face fell. “How dare you eavesdrop on us!”Madeline said, “Yeah, if I hadn’t heard what you said, I would’ve never known that my good sister is such a shameless, two-faced b*tch!”“How dare you call Meredith that, you brat! You’re digging your own grave!” Rose angrily reached out her hand; she was about to hit Madeline again.“Mom, why do you want to get angry at this country bumpkin without parents?” Meredith scoffed and glanced at Madeline. She looked very calm. “My dear sister, for the sake of our r
“No! Jeremy…”Madeline’s face was white from fear. She was horrified by Jeremy’s actions.She had never seen such a cold and violent side of Jeremy before. She was scared that the child in her stomach would cease to exist because of him.However, Jeremy did not give her a chance to run away. He imprisoned her in his arms.She had never thought that Jeremy hated her this much.After a very long time, Madeline only felt excruciating pain all over her body. Consequently, she fell into a deep slumber, and in her dream, was sent back to that wonderful summer day 12 years ago.The sun was shining brightly on the beach and there was a Camphor tree.Young Madeline was picking seashells by the shore. She looked at the quiet boy who was sitting on a rock from afar. He looked unhappy.That was the first time she met Jeremy. He was only 12 years old but was already good looking. He had a tall yet slender body.However, he looked very upset.Young Madeline carefully approached him while w
Meredith started yelling at her while jealousy made her face twist in a horrifying way.Madeline smiled nonchalantly. “As Jeremy’s wife, I’m happy to rid him of his troubles.”“Madeline, you… you’re so cheap!”“I can’t compare to you, Mer. You drugged Jeremy so that you could marry him. Why? Had Jeremy refused to touch you when he was sober?”Meredith’s face looked awkward as if Madeline had exposed something. However, she kept a calm and proud expression.“Of course, Jeremy loves touching me. He loves pestering me so much! He’s always by my side every night unlike compared to you. You can only stay at home while your husband is away.”Meredith’s words were laced with thorns. Subsequently, she took out some documents and placed them in front of Madeline.“These are the divorce papers Jeremy asked me to tell you to sign. Hurry up and sign them. Jeremy doesn’t want to see an unsophisticated and poor hussy like you ever again.”Madeline had gone through many things to put on a mas
What a spectacular performance. Madeline could not find any mistakes in the performance that she had put on.It was just that Madeline had not expected Meredith to be pregnant as well.However, was Meredith’s child Jeremy’s?Madeline remembered that Meredith had slept with a tramp after accidentally entering the wrong room in her plan to harm her three months ago. If she really was pregnant, the father of the child was still up for discussion.Nevertheless, Madeline could not deny that Jeremy had always spent the night with this woman.When she thought about this, the pain in her heart started to spread.However, that pain could not compare to the pain she felt when she saw Jeremy holding Meredith gently with so much affection and care.Meredith covered her face and cried pitifully.“Jeremy, don’t blame Maddie. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have fallen in love with you. On the other hand, I hope you can talk to Maddie so that she won’t hurt our baby…”When Meredith mentioned
