She clenched the fork and knife tightly in her hands, trying hard to suppress her emotions. After she took a deep breath, she said, “Can I go to Glendale with you?”The man lifted his head to look at her after he heard that.Madeline looked confidently into those deep and cold obsidian eyes. “My home is in Glendale. I miss my home.”“You want to go home looking like this?”“No, I just want to go back to take a look.” Madeline knew her current condition. She did not want to stand in front of Jeremy while looking like this.Perhaps he would not mind that she was disfigured.However, Madeline did not dare to find out. She was scared that Jeremy might not even recognize her if she were to stand in front of him like this.When she thought about that scene, she felt as if her heart had been stabbed by needles.She did not have the courage to try.“You’re from Glendale, so you should know about a lot of things in Glendale, right? If that’s the case, you should’ve heard about Jeremy W

The words on the card were simple and explained two situations to them.[Ryan’s dead.[His ashes are in the urn.]“No, how is this possible? How is Rye dead just like this? How can this be Rye’s ashes?”Mrs. Jones’ face was as white as paper while her eyes were filled with terror. “No! Who brought this here? Why are they pranking us like this?”She questioned the maid emotionally. The maid was also taken aback.‘Young Master is dead?‘And his ashes are in the urn?’Mr. Jones took the card and froze where he was, absent-minded and astonished.He did not want to believe this. However, it had been such a long time since they could contact Ryan, so he needed to accept the possibility that Ryan might truly be dead.After Madeline left Jones Manor, she walked alone for a very long distance.She was extremely distracted. She had no idea when the sky turned dark and she also had no idea when it started to drizzle.Madeline continued walking forward like this. From time to time, she

“Jeremy, Jeremy?” The woman was confused at Jeremy’s reaction.Even Jeremy himself did not understand why those eyes were able to make him feel so disconcerted. Plus, the view of that woman’s back caused him to feel a sharp pain in his heart for some reason.This was so strange.However, he did not have time to look into this before he was urged away by the woman by his side.The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Madeline held the umbrella, and after she walked for a while, she slowly stopped walking.She did not know when the sky turned black. When Jeremy walked past her earlier, she felt as if her vision had turned black.Her heart was in immense pain, but right now, the wounds on her face started to burn painfully.Madeline placed the umbrella down while feeling unwell. However, the moment she removed her scarf and mask, a passerby suddenly exclaimed, “Damn, what a scary face!”The passerby’s unintentional words sounded so piercing as they penetrated Madeline’s eardrums.

She also noticed that the man was not looking at her with as much suspicion and inquiries anymore. On the other hand, he seemed to understand the entire situation now. “So is this why you only praised Jeremy and said Eveline is so-so when you saw their photos last time?”“Yes,” Madeline replied cooperatively. Then, she praised, “You’re so smart, Mr. Carter. You’ve seen through everything.”The man gave her a fake smile when he heard that. Then, he looked at Madeline with a sneer on the corners of his lips. Madeline felt a little guilty when looking at him.“The number one socialite in Glendale, Eveline Montgomery, is only so-so to you. I guess you really despise Jeremy. At the same time, you must also despise that Eveline Montgomery who has the same name as you, right?”“...” Madeline hesitated for a few seconds. Then, she answered with a deeper meaning, “That’s right, I hate the woman next to Jeremy even more. If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t have become like this.”‘That’s right

“I’m warning you, don’t touch my person.”“...”His person?When did she become his person?Madeline knew clearly in her heart that this man was only using her to get rid of the woman.However, he did not give her any chance to explain before he grabbed her wrist suddenly and walked upstairs.“Carter! Carter!” The woman yelled angrily behind them in dissatisfaction, but the man did not have the desire to stop at all.As they were going upstairs, Madeline tried to remove herself from the man’s grip several times. However, he only grabbed her even tighter.“She can’t see us anymore, so can you let go now, Mr. Carter?” Madeline asked in displeasure.Carter stopped walking and turned back to look at Madeline. When he saw the resistance and dissatisfaction in Madeline’s eyes, he let go immediately.“Come in.” He walked into the study first.Madeline followed after him. She remembered his identity that the woman had just exposed and asked after pondering for a few seconds. “Your n
