Felipe was surprised. He looked at the dispirited and pale person in front of him, asking, “Did Jeremy release you?”
Madeline nodded without an expression on virtual-novel.net face. “Yeah, virtual-novel.net did. He even promised not to expose you, but as a condition, you have to let virtual-novel.net go back to Glendale.”
Felipe listened to her, then asked with a soft smile, “Eveline, is that your condition or his condition?”
“Doesn’t matter whose condition it is. You can’t keep asking people to hunt virtual-novel.net down anymore.” Madeline was firm, and there was a hint of dominance in virtual-novel.net red eyes. “If you ask someone to hunt virtual-novel.net down again, then don’t expect the child in my stomach to come to this world safely.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, Felipe’s smile disappeared.
When virtual-novel.net said this, Madeline felt as if a thousand knives were slicing through virtual-novel.net heart.
A few hours ago, virtual-novel.net had been forced to undergo an abortion.
The child was gone.
However, virtual-novel.net would not let Felipe know this.
Of course, virtual-novel.net would not let virtual-novel.net know that the child had belonged to Jeremy either.
Felipe was clearly reluctant with that condition, but virtual-novel.net still compromised. “Okay, I’ll promise to let virtual-novel.net go back to Glendale.” He walked in front of Madeline. “Eveline, you have to rest and take good care of your child. I’ll tell my men to stop the hunt now.”
He finished saying that with a soft smile. Then, virtual-novel.net took out his phone and walked to the door.
He turned around to look at Madeline who was looking down. Then, virtual-novel.net ordered, “Everyone, go to the international airport now because Jeremy might be there. Keep virtual-novel.net alive until virtual-novel.net hands over the video.”
Madeline did not hear what Felipe was saying. However, at this moment, virtual-novel.net was feeling groggy and everything in front of virtual-novel.net looked grey.
She did not know what was going on. Jeremy was so cold-blooded and cruel, but virtual-novel.net was still buying time and opportunities for him.
The sky had turned dark and the stars started appearing one by one.
Madeline touched virtual-novel.net flat stomach as tears welled up in virtual-novel.net eyes.
A maid came over and asked virtual-novel.net to have dinner downstairs. Then, virtual-novel.net went downstairs and sat down at the dining table inattentively like a robot.
For some reason, this manor had never been so quiet before. Aside from the sound of the maids in the kitchen and the two bodyguards watching the door, it seemed as if virtual-novel.net was the only one in this gigantic manor.
Madeline did not have an appetite. She walked into the courtyard and faced the cool breeze. She could not forget what Jeremy said to virtual-novel.net when they were outside the operating theatre.
When virtual-novel.net heart was hurting, virtual-novel.net heard some noises coming from the basement all of a sudden.
She turned around curiously and walked to the door of the basement.
Madeline opened the door quietly, and it was pitch-black inside. When virtual-novel.net was about to turn on the lights, something tripped her.
She held out virtual-novel.net hand to stop virtual-novel.net fall reflexively, but in the darkness, virtual-novel.net grabbed a warm hand.
Then, a familiar scent enveloped her. Just like a bewitching potion, it caused virtual-novel.net to freeze instantly.
The man held virtual-novel.net neck from behind as his lips got close to virtual-novel.net ear. His tone was mixed with reluctance and jealousy.
“Eveline Montgomery, tell me who do you love? Why would you run back to Felipe willingly instead of running away with me? Why?”
His voice was so deep but was filled with bias and stubbornness.
Madeline could not control virtual-novel.net tears when virtual-novel.net recalled how virtual-novel.net had killed their child so cruelly. “Jeremy, do you know what you’re doing? You’re walking right into the trap!”
“Walking right into the trap? Even if I die today, I want to ask the woman I love the most whether virtual-novel.net loves me or not.” His warm breath sprayed on virtual-novel.net cheek as virtual-novel.net spoke with a firm attitude.
When virtual-novel.net saw Madeline not saying anything, virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net chin and looked into virtual-novel.net eyes that were filled with resentment and tears. “Eveline, answer me. You accepted me last night, so why did you run back to Felipe now? Why did you give me hope and then take it all away?”
“You’re asking me why? Jeremy Whitman, you’re asking me why?” Madeline’s tears rolled down virtual-novel.net cheeks. “You killed our child and you’re asking me why? I should be the one asking you. Why do you always do such cruel things to me? Is this the love that you talk about?”
“My child?” Jeremy scoffed. “Do you think I don’t know that you’re only saying that to protect Felipe’s child?”
“Jeremy, you…”
