Jeremy looked at the lying butler and did not waste his time questioning him. He followed Carter’s entourage into the living room.Carter was sitting on the sofa of the living room. He was flipping through a book lazily while sipping on his tea. When he saw Jeremy, he put down his book and teacup before getting up to greet him courteously.“Mr. Whitman, welcome to my house. Please sit.”Jeremy looked around the living room but did not see Madeline anywhere. He furrowed his brows and felt an unknown sense of anxiety in his heart.“Mr. Gray, I’m not here as a guest. I’m here to take my wife Eveline home.” Jeremy was feeling agitated, but he was trying his best to control himself and stay cool.Carter looked at the deeply worried look that was showing faintly in Jeremy’s eyes. However, he displayed a confused look instead.“I’ve asked my driver to drive Mrs. Whitman home ten minutes ago. Did she not tell you?”“You asked your driver to send my wife home?” Jeremy was confused. He ha

After hearing what Camille said, Carter continued to flip through the book in his hand slowly.He understood Camille’s concerns, but he had his own plans.“I know what’s her purpose, so don’t worry. Everything’s in my control.” Carter’s tone was irreverent. However, the assurance in his voice sounded pretty confident.After Madeline went back to her room to wash up, she went downstairs.When she saw Carter and Camille in the living room, she walked toward Carter naturally and smiled before greeting Camille.“Hello, Aunty Cammy.”“...” Camille did not expect Madeline to greet her like this.After that night, she had a pretty good impression of Madeline. However, when she remembered Madeline and Jeremy’s relationship, she felt a headache coming again.She did not ask too much. Instead, she smiled and walked away.Carter placed the book in his hand down and walked over to Madeline. A warm smile appeared on his handsome face. “Do you feel better after the nap? Do you want me to ta

Madeline’s answer felt like a clap of thunder striking above Jeremy’s head.He felt as if his thoughts were being tugged at violently. He could not believe what he had just heard.However, Jeremy tried his best to control his emotions and make himself calm. He explained patiently, “Linnie, you’ve never married another man aside from me in your life.”Yet, Madeline only peered at Jeremy coldly. “I know my business. You don’t have to spew so much nonsense with me. I don’t want to hear it.”Madeline said while walking to Carter.Carter curled the corners of his lips quietly and pulled Madeline behind him.When Jeremy saw this, he felt his heart growing cold. Back then, she would only stand behind him and they would face everything together fearlessly. However, she was standing behind another man now.The more Jeremy thought about this, the more confused he was. He could not accuse Madeline of anything, so he shifted his questioning and hostile gaze to Carter.“Mr. Gray, aren’t you

After saying that, Jeremy realized he just had a slip of the tongue.“I’m sorry, Miss Young.” Jeremy quickly corrected himself.“You didn’t get my name wrong. I am Cathy.” Cathy lifted her sad eyes and looked into Jeremy’s surprised eyes.Jeremy was confused. When he was about to ask what was going on, Adam walked out of the room.When he saw Jeremy, Adam looked as if he was letting out a sigh of relief. “Go in now. I think you should be able to buy some time for him.”“Got it.” Jeremy expressed his acknowledgment. When he was about to go in, he heard Cathy asking worriedly.“Is he really going to prison?”Jeremy stopped in his tracks and turned around. He saw intense melancholy on Cathy’s face and in her eyes.“Do you hope that he’ll go to prison or do you hope that he’ll be fine?” Jeremy gave Cathy a multiple-choice question.Cathy stared blankly at Jeremy. At that instant, she did not know how to answer him.Jeremy did not say anything after seeing her spacing out. He knoc

After Cathy said that, Felipe felt as if something had struck his heart.She had not asked anything, but he already felt extremely nervous.However, he looked very calm despite this apprehensive contradiction.“Go ahead.”His black eyes were staring straight at Cathy, and he did not hide at all.“Have you ever regretted this?” Cathy’s voice sounded light. However, when it landed on Felipe’s heart, it felt as heavy as if it weighed a few thousand pounds.She was asking him whether he regretted this.Of course.Of course, he regretted this.However, he knew it was too late to feel regretful now.Felipe looked at the face that used to feel so familiar yet was foreign now. He curled his pale lips and smiled.“I’ve never regretted it.”‘I don’t regret giving up on the huge power and wealth that I wasted so much time and effort building. I also don’t regret almost dying just to see you again.‘Cathy, I don’t have the right nor the ability to make you stay and make up for the cru
