Meredith stared at this stern face, dumbfounded. "Jeremy, what did you say?""Why don’t you leave?" He had lowered his tone, sounding as if he still had feelings for Meredith.Meredith was so angry that she gritted her teeth. When she saw Madeline with her lips curled into a smile as Jeremy protected her behind his back, she felt furious.Just when Madeline thought that Meredith would explode from anger, Meredith instead seemed to have turned into a different person all of a sudden. She let go of her fist and her anger disappeared. Then, she approached Jeremy and spoke slowly..."Jeremy."Meredith's eyes were red as she looked sadly at the man before her who maintained his cold expression."I know I did something wrong and that has disappointed you, but I didn’t betray my conscience. Everything I’ve done is for Jack and you. I’ve never hurt innocent people."While she was speaking, she teared up as well. Her pitiful appearance was really well performed."Jeremy, I know it's useless for

Madeline could forget a lot of things in her life. She could forget the best moments of her life and the beautiful feeling she had when she was deeply in love with Jeremy, but she could never be unfamiliar with this thing in front of her for the rest of her life.Dazed, she slowly reached out her hand to pick up the object that had fallen to the ground before placing it in her palm.Looking at it, it was as if she could suddenly hear the sound of waves as well as the smell and the salty taste of the sea breeze. Even a boy's gentle promise sounded in her ears, "Linnie, when I grow up, I’ll make you my bride..."Yet, this promise was blown away by the breeze and ended up sinking to the bottom of the sea in the end. Things could never go back to that time again in this life..."Linnie..."Madeline stopped indulging in her walk down memory lane and looked toward Jeremy who was muttering.He was still calling for Linnie.However, the Linnie he was calling for was not her but Meredith—the vi

Madeline saw Jeremy hesitating for a while. In those two to three seconds, she did not know what he was thinking about. However, after a while, he looked at her with a complicated look in his eyes before rushing over to Meredith.He knelt and pulled the seemingly unconscious Meredith into his arms.“Mer, Mer, wake up.”He patted Meredith’s cheek lightly with worry in his eyes.Madeline held the breakfast in her hands as she stood at the entrance. When she saw what was happening in front of her, she smirked sarcastically.‘Jeremy, you never disappoint me.‘You’re still so concerned about that woman.‘Despite all those horrible things she did, she’s still the love of your life?’At this moment, Meredith opened her eyes slowly in Jeremy’s arms. They were brimmed with tears as she looked at him pitifully.“Jeremy, I was wrong. I know my mistakes. Please don’t leave me, okay?” Meredith said weakly as tears started falling from her eyes.“Jeremy, did you forget? You promised that y

When she smelled this familiar scent behind her, Madeline immediately knew who was the person holding her.However, why was Jeremy here?Had he brought Jackson here as well?Was that child here too?Madeline started thinking about Jackson all of a sudden. Then, she steadied herself and escaped from Jeremy’s arms.“It’s that nice mister!”Lillian called out toward Jeremy as a happy grin appeared on her pinkish face. It seemed that Lillian was pretty fond of Jeremy.There was a slight smile on Jermy’s handsome face. He looked at Lillian, then shifted his gaze to Madeline.“I guess I made the right decision to come out today.” He had some overtones in his sentence. “Why didn’t you answer my calls?”Madeline lifted her head and faked a smile. “I’m sorry, Mr. Whitman. I’ve been busy spending time with Felipe and my daughter. I don’t have time to answer any meaningless calls.”“Meaningless calls?” Jeremy lifted his eyebrow. When he saw Madeline turning around to leave with Lillian,

At that moment, Madeline recalled something. She turned around quickly and ran toward a place.The sky was already dark and the street lights were turned on. The empty amusement park had lost its liveliness from the morning. At this moment, there were only sounds of rustling trees.“Jeremy, what should we do now? Jack must’ve been abducted!” At this moment, Meredith was leaning against Jeremy with fear and worry on her face.“Jeremy, I can’t lose Jack! He’s our only child!”She emphasized ‘only child’ and did not notice Jeremy’s expression sinking when she mentioned that.When he was about to say something, he saw a familiar figure from the corner of his eyes.“You should go back first. I have something to take care of,” Jeremy said to make Meredith leave before immediately walking away after that.“Jeremy! Jeremy!” Meredith called out to him, but he continued walking without even turning back.Meanwhile, Madeline went to several secluded locations based on her intuitions. Fina
