More than half an hour later, Cathy came down from the stairs. “Evie, Jeremy’s hypnosis has been undone. He hasn’t fully woken up yet. When virtual-novel.net wakes up, virtual-novel.net will completely remember you, how much virtual-novel.net loves you, and everything between you both.”
Madeline breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. “Thank you, Cathy.”
Cathy felt even more ashamed. “Don’t thank me. I’m just trying to make up for it.”
“Evie, then I’ll be leaving first. I wish you and Jeremy happiness in the future.”
“Cathy, wait.” Madeline held her. “You told me on the phone that you’re leaving. Where are you going? Do you want to leave Glendale?”
“Yeah.” Cathy forced herself to put on a smile on virtual-novel.net lips, revealing virtual-novel.net charming dimples. “Felipe agreed to let me be with the man I like, so I’ve decided to look for him. I hope that one day, we can be like you and Jeremy and depend on each other for life and death.”
She smiled enviously, but virtual-novel.net eyes were red.
“Goodbye, Evie. This may be the last time we meet.”
After Cathy said these last words, virtual-novel.net turned around.
Madeline kept feeling as if something was wrong. She wanted to ask further, but just then, virtual-novel.net vaguely heard Jeremy calling virtual-novel.net name from upstairs.
She watched Cathy push open the door of the coffee shop, virtual-novel.net thin body plunging into the cold, bitter wind as virtual-novel.net figure gradually drifted away…
Madeline inexplicably felt that this would be virtual-novel.net last meeting with Cathy.
She immediately went upstairs, and when virtual-novel.net reached the last step, virtual-novel.net stepped on air by accident due to virtual-novel.net anxiety.
Just when virtual-novel.net body tilted out of balance, Madeline’s waist was hugged tightly by a pair of strong arms.
With a little effort, the man drew virtual-novel.net to the front safely.
A familiar cold fragrance filled virtual-novel.net chest. Madeline raised virtual-novel.net eyes suddenly and saw Jeremy’s gentle gaze on her.
There was deep affection in his eyes and a gleam of light.
“Jeremy?” Madeline called out to virtual-novel.net tentatively, virtual-novel.net heartbeat drumming slightly.
The man suddenly parted his beautiful lips and smiled. “Linnie.”
He whispered virtual-novel.net name softly and held virtual-novel.net in his arms in the next second.
From his clear eyes, Madeline already knew that virtual-novel.net had recovered.
“Linnie, thank you for giving me another chance. Thank you for marrying me again.” He was grateful, and his voice was trembling. “This marriage, I will never let you down again.”
He let go of his arms and there was a trace of tears in his narrow, slender eyes.
Madeline looked at him. “Have you really recovered?”
He nodded slightly. “Hypnotism really is amazing. I seem to have had a dream, but it wasn’t a sweet dream.”
“Really now?” Madeline said in a playful tone, “Since you’ve woken up from the dream, let’s go.”
“Linnie, wait for me.” Jeremy took Madeline’s hand. “Where are you going in such a hurry?”
Madeline paused for a while but did not shake Jeremy’s hand away. Instead, virtual-novel.net looked solemn. “I think Cathy might be in trouble. I’m going to find her.”
…
Felipe drove to the hospital. He had never thought of taking time to see Cathy, but virtual-novel.net was inexplicably concerned.
Yet, when virtual-novel.net arrived at the ward where Cathy was staying, virtual-novel.net found the room empty.
He asked the nurse only to find out that Cathy had forced herself out of the hospital early in the morning.
She had actually disobeyed his order and not allowed herself to recuperate. She actually left!
Felipe was choked up and immediately dialed Cathy’s number. The phone rang several times before it was finally connected. He murmured coldly and said in a hurry, “Do you know what you’re doing? Did I allow you to leave?!”
However, a calm voice came from the other end of the phone. “Sir, I found this phone by the river. Someone said that a girl has just committed suicide by jumping into the river. Was virtual-novel.net your friend?”
