“Felipe, what are you trying to say? Are you showing off to me?”“Hmph.” Felipe snorted. “I just want to tell you now that things have come to this, we need to have a solution. I’ll wait for you where Lillian was killed half an hour later. If you show up, I’ll give you all records of Lillian from the moment she was born. If you don’t, then just pretend I never made this call.”Felipe hung up before Jeremy could reply.Cathy stood by the wall of the study while her body was covered in bruises and wounds.She contemplated before going back to her room quietly.After pondering, she picked up her phone and typed out a string of words…Madeline did not go back to Montgomery Manor after she left.She walked aimlessly along the streets. Despite the hustle and bustle around her, she still felt a bone-piercing chill in her heart.Never in her wildest dreams would she think Felipe was capable of doing such heinous things.Madeline felt that this was ridiculous. The man who told her he l

After the gun was fired, Madeline felt something tugging on her thoughts. At the same time, a muffled crashing sound appeared in her mind as well, and it was… a car crash.In the next second, a lot of memories started flooding back in front of Madeline’s eyes, including how she used to so stubbornly love someone named Jeremy Whitman. Even if he was cold and heartless to her, she would still love him deeply. Then, the image of her doing everything for him without complaints appeared in her brain.She remembered.She remembered everything.She also remembered how she stopped hating Jeremy before the car crash.That day, in front of the house, she heard Jeremy sincerely telling Jackson about how remorseful he felt. Moreover, the sincerity on his face made her let go of her hatred toward him.‘I’ve already stopped hating him.’Madeline finally understood.Her hatred toward Jeremy after that was all influenced by Felipe.Felipe…Madeline could not imagine how such a gentle and kin

“Felipe, thank you for saving my life, but now, I’m returning the favor.”When Felipe heard this, he was completely stunned.Jeremy held Madeline who was bleeding out and ran to the car that was stopped at the side of the road without hesitating.“Linnie, you have to hold on!” His eyes were filled with tears as he ran forward.Madeline opened her blurry eyes, seeing the worry and fear in Jeremy’s eyes.It was the same look as when she had vomited blood during Meredith’s engagement party. Madeline slowly started to understand. Jeremy was scared, but what was he scared of? Was he scared that she would die?Hospital.Jeremy sat outside the emergency room while feeling flustered.Even though the bullet had only hit Madeline’s shoulder, it was still a gunshot wound and not a normal wound.After a long while, the surgery was done.The doctor told him that Madeline’s life was not in danger and they also took the bullet out. However, the wound on her shoulder was pretty deep, so sh

She held her breath and felt the wetness seeping through her pants.She lifted her head to look at Felipe’s cold back. Then, she held her clothes and endured the pain before slowly walking out.She did not even have the right to call out to him with his name, so how would she dare think he would give her even an ounce of pity at this moment?After Cathy walked out of the room while enduring the pain, she held the wall and walked back to her room.Mrs. Sawyer, the housekeeper, had just finished cleaning the room and was on her way out. When she saw Cathy walking over with a pale face, she was shocked.“Miss, are you—”“Don’t tell Felipe,” Cathy told her with all her might. “Please, Mrs. Sawyer, help me back to my room.”Mrs. Sawyer did not dare to ask much about the affairs of her employers, so she hurriedly helped Cathy back to her room.Mrs. Sawyer understood immediately when she saw the trail of blood on the floor.After Mrs. Sawyer cleaned up the blood on the floor, she wen

However, to her surprise, she saw Felipe walking over with a bouquet of roses.At this moment, Felipe was completely different from how he looked that day. He was back to his elegant and poised demeanor.A few women were looking at him, admiring his looks like love-struck teenagers.Cathy was like that as well. Whenever this happened, she would wonder if she was very lucky. Even if she could not get his love, at least she got his body.As she was comforting herself, she saw Felipe walking to the inpatient department.Then, she realized that Felipe was visiting Madeline with a bouquet of roses.However, why was Madeline in the hospital?Cathy remembered the text she sent Madeline that day.She heard that Felipe wanted to meet Jeremy alone and had a bad feeling. Hence, she messaged Madeline and told her about this.She was hoping that Madeline could stop the two of them and prevent anything bad from happening.However, it seemed that something bad did happen that day because Ma

When she saw the report falling in front of Felipe, Cathy’s body went cold.She squatted down hurriedly to pick it up. However, when she stood up with the report, Felipe snatched it away from her hand.Felipe looked at the words on the report, his eyes darkening with every passing second.Cathy stood at one side, feeling so nervous that it was becoming difficult for her to breathe.She did not even get the chance to look at the report before Felipe frightened her into stone.She had not dared to tell Felipe about her pregnancy, but now…Then, out of the blue, she heard Felipe scoffing. His voice was extremely icy. “No wonder you looked like you were about to hurl that day. You’re pregnant.”Cathy’s face turned as grey as ash when she heard that.However, in the next second, Felipe’s cold voice leaped into her ears.“You’re something else. You aborted it the moment you got it.”What?Cathy’s heart leaped into her mouth when she heard that. Did it mean that her child was gone?

After all, she had called Jackson and told him that she would be out for business. They seemed to have taken her lie in a stride. “You’re back just in time, Eveline. Your dad suggested going on a family trip yesterday, thinking that we could forget about the depressing past.” She sighed, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. “I know it hurts, Eveline, but we can’t change the fact that Lily’s gone.” Eloise reached out to hold Madeline’s hand affectionately as the latter remained quiet. “We can talk more when we get inside, Eveline.” Eloise then pulled Madeline into the house. At the mention of Lillian, Madeline felt her eyes burn. She remained in place and parted her lips to speak calmly, “My memory’s back.” Eloise’s footsteps came to a sudden halt. Madeline could feel Eloise’s hand grow cold in her grasp at her words, almost as if she was afraid. Eloise turned around to look at Madeline with unease. “You… remember everything, Eveline?” Madeline nodded with certainty.

For some unknown reason, the indifference on Madeline’s small face brought unease.He had prayed to see the admiration and reluctance to let go in Madeline’s eyes, only to be faced with a pond of uninterrupted calm. Cutting the quiet, Madeline parted her lips. “You went blind because of me, Mr. Whitman, so I decided to save you when you were about to get into an accident back then at Glendale University. “You saved me when I slipped and fell into the water on the island where I almost drowned at sea, so I saved you when you were in danger this time.” Madeline explained the two times she had risked her life to save Jeremy. “Do you understand now, Mr. Whitman? I didn’t do it out of love. I merely don’t want to owe you anything.” Dazed, Jeremy refused to believe her. “No, Linnie. That’s not it.” He denied it. “That’s not it? Then how do you want it to be, Mr. Whitman?” Madeline chuckled. “Did you think that I’ll still be foolish little Madeline who’s head over heels in love
