Staring at her frowning face, Jeremy curled his lips. "How could I be so daring to make fun of my aunt?"He walked to her front. "I was done with my meeting a long time ago. It's just that I saw you sleeping, so it would’ve been rather inconvenient to wake you up.""..." After hearing what he had to say, Madeline felt that she was the one at fault.Seeing Madeline daydreaming, Jeremy stared at the blanket which Madeline was holding onto."Aunty, please don't go making wild guesses that I'm the one who covered you with this blanket. It's the lady from the front desk who did it. It's none of my business."He denied that the incident had anything to do with him. His eyes did not show any sign of concern toward her nor could traces of missing her be found.Madeline grasped the blanket tightly and smiled. "It looks like I've really misunderstood. If that's the case, then can you please book an appointment, Mr. Whitman? I don't want to waste too much time on just your case alone.""Ar

"Does sleeping together count as being very close to each other?" Felipe counter-questioned.Yvette shook her head with a smile. "You can't prove how close two people are just because they’ve slept with each other before. After all, there are way too many people having one-night stands these days.""We weren't just having a one-night stand. I've spent many nights with her." Felipe lowered his voice as he inched closer to Yvette. His eyes were sparkling with suspicion. Just when he attempted to examine her face meticulously, his phone rang.He glanced at the incoming call and immediately wore a soothing smile. "Miss Charis, I have a call to answer. We'll talk about it when we get the chance.""Sure, Mr. Whitman." Yvette stared at Felipe as he spun around. Her smile gradually faded.At the garden of the hall.Madeline supported herself against the wall, unable to control herself from retching.She could no longer differentiate whether it was because of her body feeling unwell, or

Madeline carried Lillian into the house, but since she had another child in her stomach, she did not carry her for too long. Then, she kissed her on the cheek. “Lily, I’ll make some muffins for you now. Can you come and help me?”“Okay!”The little girl blinked her crystal-like eyes and followed Madeline into the kitchen.Jeremy watched from inside his car that was a distance away, looking at Madeline holding a child before walking into the house.He also saw the sincere smile on Madeline’s face.When had she ever smiled at him like that?Jeremy clenched his fingers around the steering wheel as the fire in his eyes burned brightly.“I guess I was just overthinking. I had believed myself as infallible when reality has proven to me otherwise. The man you love right now is really him.”Buzz, buzz.When Jeremy’s phone rang, he answered it without hesitating.His assistant, Ken, could be heard talking from the other end. “Mr. Whitman, I just got the news that Felipe’s at the wareh

Felipe watched as this happened from a distance. Then, he curled his lips into a smirk. “You came.”He looked confident as he ordered the driver, “Follow them.”After Madeline was tossed into the backseat, the car started quickly.The man driving was wearing a face mask. However, how could Madeline not recognize the man’s eyes?“Jeremy, when did you come to F Country? Why are you kidnapping me? What do you want?”Jeremy looked at the rear-view mirror and saw Madeline’s unhappy face. He did not say anything.After driving for about 20 minutes, Jeremy finally stopped the car.There were a lot of villas on the outskirts of F Country. Then, Jeremy drove the car into one of the villas.He removed the mask and opened the door for Madeline.“Get out.”Madeline got out of the car with an icy look. When she saw the man walking into the building without even turning back, she was even more puzzled.“Jeremy, what are you playing at?”The man stopped and spoke with a cold voice, “Come

Felipe pulled the trigger without hesitation.He had already made up his mind to stop Jeremy from destroying the foundation he built and his enormous power.Since he had been exposed and even had a video taken of him, he should take care of this quickly and straightforwardly.Plus, he had been annoyed at Jeremy for a very long time.This annoyance lasted for more than ten years.Perhaps it started when Old Master Whitman began to pamper Jeremy and abandoned him in F Country to fend for himself.Jeremy walked downstairs and saw a red dot on Ken’s temple.He yelled out, “Get down!”Ken lowered his head reflexively after he heard that. Then, he heard the sound of the window smashing and a bullet flying above his head.When Felipe saw this from the magnifier, he furrowed his brows together.He eventually noticed that the man on the sofa was not Jeremy. Since Ken had his back to him, Felipe only saw his hair and side profile. That was why he mistook him for Jeremy.After Felipe s
